Cuisinart - Elemental 11 Cup Food Processor (FP-11GMP1)

Personally I'd get rid of: Cuisinart Elemental 11qt food processor (NIB) Electric citrus juicer I had one of the Cuisinart large food processors and I found it too big for most tasks. At one point the lid got dropped and we ordered a replacement, never did work 100% correct after that.

Check out used ones if you're on a budget! I found a Cuisinart Prep 11 cup for $20 at a thrift store and I spent another $30 on some additional shredder discs and a dough blade from eBay. She's solid as a rock and I have similar usage to yours (occasional soups, sauces, quick dough, etc).

I have a Cuisinart 11-cup that was around $80, Amazon.

I feel like your post is contradicting itself. You say it's for home use, but also you want something that can withstand hours of use. Are you just planning to make an enormous batch a few times per year? You can get a [Cuisinart 14 cup (~3.5 L)](https://www.cuisinart.com/custom-14-cup-food-processor/DFP-14BCNY.html) food processor, which is designed for home use and fits in your budget ($320 USD). I have the 11-cup version myself, and it's very sturdy, although I don't know how it would stand up to literal hours of continuous use. I also don't know what one of these would cost you in Finland (?). If you want a commercial food processor, which is the category Robot Coupe is in, there are more affordable options than the Robot Coupe, which is the Rolls Royce of food processors. Find a local restaurant equipment store near you and see what they stock, or find the Finnish/European equivalent of webstaurantstore.com.

I had either an 11- or 14-cup Cuisinart and I'd agree to go with the larger size. 11 and 14 cups is not the actual capacity. You can't pack a food processor to the brim. You're really only using maybe 1/3rd of the space in there. There's a big hole in the middle that comes up around 1/3rd to 1/2-way up. If you overfill, the liquids will fall into the hole. A mini prep is like one onion or 3/4 cup of hummus.
