The Cuisinart DLC 5 Food Processor is a compact, remarkably capable kitchen assistant perfect for any home cook. Its shatterproof seven-cup work bowl easily accommodates enough food for a hungry family, while two stainless steel blades, one disc, one-touch controls, and a powerful 600-watt motor effortlessly handle everyday tasks like slicing, shredding, chopping, mixing, and more.

7-Cup Lexan Work Bowl: The DLC 5 features a shatterproof, heat- and cold-resistant Lexan work bowl that can hold over a pound of meat, two pounds of dough, or enough batter for three eight-inch layer cakes. Its generous seven-cup capacity will easily handle daily kitchen tasks, and the thick, solid handle makes it easy to use ingredients right out of the bowl.

Cuisinart Feed Tube: To avoid the mess of mid-processing ingredient additions, the DLC 5 is equipped with a large feed tube. Just cut your ingredients to fit, and use the included pusher to guide the food through the tube. All detachable parts are top-shelf dishwasher-safe.

Shred, Slice, Chop, and Mix: The DLC 5 includes two stainless steel processing discs (shredding and slicing) with stems and one blade (chopping/mixing). When you need to chop raw or cooked fruits, vegetables, meat, or cheese, snap in the metal chopping/mixing blade. It accurately, evenly chops foods to your preferred consistency - from coarse to fine, crumbled to pureed. With the shredding disc, grating is a snap for cheese, vegetables, and even chocolate! For whole slices, use the four-millimeter slicing disc for everything from whole fruits to loaves of bread.

3-Position Switch Control: With the Cuisinart DLC 5 Food Processor's switch-based control panel, meal preparation couldn't be easier. Choose continuous power by switching to the On position, which will activate the machine until you switch to Off, or use the Pulse function for quick bursts of processing that let you fully control food texture and fineness.

Safety Features: Safety switches prevent the machine from operating when the work bowl or work bowl cover are not locked into position. When the pusher assembly is removed, the motor is turned off with a fast-stop circuit.

The Cuisinart DLC 5 Food Processor is constructed from tough, durable high-impact white and dark grey plastic, and includes a plastic spatula, recipe book, full five-year motor warranty and a limited three-year manufacturer's warranty.
