I was excited to get the Oster 10 Cup Total Prep Food Processor, as the only food processor I have ever had was a fairly cheap product. I have been blown away (in a good way). The cord is long enough for me to move it wherever I need it on the counter. It also has suction cups on the bottom, to keep it in place. This feature alone is amazing. As for the appearance, it is a very attractive appliance that I don't mind leaving out on my counter for people to see. I love the black and silver together. Now for actual use: I have chopped nuts, carrots, lettuce, etc and everything has been superfast, efficient, and cut everything exactly the way I wanted. I have already saved so much time using this product that I can't believe it. I am now looking for recipes that will utilize the food processor which I have never done before. I absolutely love the ease of use with this appliance. I would recommend the Oster 10 Cup Total Food Prep Processor to everyone! Whether you cook everything from scratch all the time or are someone who wants to get in and out of the kitchen as fast as possible, this product is for you. This is a durable, attractive, and easy-to-use product that would make anyone happy. I did receive this as a sample to try for free, but was determined not to let that influence my opinion of the product. I would happily purchase this product without hesitation.
