Breville - Sous Chef 12 Plus

I have the sous chef and it's amazing. Bulky tho 

I love my Breville 12 cup. It replaced my Cuisinart that I expected to last longer than 7 years. RobotCoupe is truly the best out there, but a little too rich for my blood.

I'm hopefully getting my breville food processor delivered today and I can't wait to use it!

I got the 12 cup a few months ago and I have loved but I think I got one of the last models. I think they are not making any new sous chefs because I broke the lid on mine after a few weeks and I had to call customer support because all replacements were sold out everywhere but luckily they had one and were able to ship it out to me

I have the Breville Sous Chef® 12 Plus

Breville Sous chef has been amazing for us

Most food processors will do slicing (with varying degrees of adjustability), and there are also food processors these days that dice. They're not cheap (for instance, the Breville Sous Chef starts at about $500 new), but they're effective and mostly effortless. Lack of a dishwasher would make clean-up harder, though. As with most forms of cutting up vegetables and such, you'd still need to remove any ends and bits you didn't want in the final product. I umpteenth recommendations for cut-proof gloves.

Second the Magimix. By far the best I've had, and I've owned a lot of them (they didn't last long). I never thought I was being terribly demanding; I just wanted one that was durable. I even went through a Breville sous chef in just a couple of years--parts kept breaking, motor strained, etc.

I like my Breville sous chef

I've used a Breville Sous Chef food processor and a Vitamix 6200 blender to make nut butter. The Vitamix is a lot faster and produces smoother nut butter. So I guess it depends on the blender but I would say a powerful blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec is better than a food processor for making nut butter.

I have a Breville Sous Chef, but their newer models look even better. I absolutely love the adjustable slicing blade on my Breville. Most food processors don’t let you adjust thickness. It also has a French fry disk and the shredding disk is awesome for grating frozen butter for things like biscuits and other pastry doughs. The Magimix also looks great for bread specifically: https://www.seriouseats.com/best-food-processor-equipment-review?utm_source=googlepaid&utm_medium=con&utm_content=CjwKCAjw7pO_BhAlEiwA4pMQvD4-GBIyPNWkNi2MkPzipbu2DH9pSX3zkWjWs1J67BYcdrvTwokBxRoCmQYQAvD_BwE&utm_campaign=commerce-dd-FoodProcessorEquipmentReview_SeriousEats_Combined_CommSEM_OrganicLP-5121915&utm_term=&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACeazfC7FOgcpXKpLqQWsXHcwx3M0&gclid=CjwKCAjw7pO_BhAlEiwA4pMQvD4-GBIyPNWkNi2MkPzipbu2DH9pSX3zkWjWs1J67BYcdrvTwokBxRoCmQYQAvD_BwE#toc-the-winners-at-a-glance
