I am so very glad that I got this! It really does fix all the issues I had with my old, workhorse Cuisinart. For one, all the pieces either turn in the intuitive direction (righty tighty, lefty loosy), or simply drop into the right position on the spindle; and the handle and chute are logically placed front and center, so both right and left handed people may use this easily, the feed tube is most easily accessed, and it takes up less counter space. There is no hole in the center of the bowl through which liquids or semi-liquids will escape, and there's a gasket on the lid to further contain them, which, in addition to allowing for processing larger batches, makes this easier to clean, just by whizzing around water with a drop or two of liquid detergent. A single disc handles both fine and coarse shredding by being flipped over; and the slicing blade is adjustable and also has the measurements clearly marked (the gap can also be closed for storage, or if it needs to sit in a drain basket). The chopping blade is sharp enough that, combined with the powerful motor, even the hardest ingredients are chopped in very few seconds. It shreds, juliennes, and makes beautiful (though curvy) French fries perfectly. I have yet to give the dough blade much of a workout, but the pizza dough I've made with it has been great. The blades and discs stop instantaneously when the machine is turned off, the lid is unlocked, or the pusher is removed. I could wax poetic about the wonderfully large chute, and the three part pusher, the center of which may also be used to measures liquids, and to drizzle them into the bowl, which helps you keep control of the position of items being sliced. The pusher barely needs any pressure on it at all, even with hard foods.
Having a mini prep bowl and blade meant that I was able to talk my husband into getting rid of the small processor he'd acquired because he'd talked himself into thinking the full sized one was too much trouble. Additionally, I have to say that the timer is genius – no more guessing – yet another way this food processor delivers reproducible results, whether because you can capture the information by counting up when developing a recipe, or by precisely timing when following one! I have not yet used the whisking disc, but have no doubt I'll be blown away by that too, considering every other part of this system is so well thought out.
I wasn't sure how much I'd want to use the dicer, but I absolutely love it, even though I did manage to cut myself during a moment of inattention, so do try to stay well focused when you have that in your hands. The edges are extremely sharp, and I have yet to find anything which is too soft or too hard for it to manage. I like it so well that I bought the additional set of 8 and 16mm dicing kits for versatility, though mostly use the set provided. The peeler works quite well on all the hard round objects I've had which needed peeling since getting it (potatoes and beets). I actually enjoy peeling, as long as I don't have a lot of it to do, but there's less waste when I use this, as I always take notably more of the produce with the peel when I do it by hand. With arthritis in my hands, I'm sure I'll put both the peeler and dicer to use with increasingly frequently.
As much food prep as I do just cooking with fresh ingredients, and dehydrating for our own needs, I'll get a lot of use out of this in short order, and it will soon have paid for itself. (Reasons to eat out or eat prepared foods diminish when it's so quick and easy to cook from scratch at home.)
What are the downsides? The first one is that you need to throw away your expectations about when you need to use the spindle – yup, I'm one of those people who managed to forget the spindle straight out of the box, despite having read the instructions, because the builtin spindle in the center of the bowl didn't look wrong to me; as a result of which I managed to fuse the slicing disc to the bowl, and I had to replace both of them. The only other one I've found is the real estate the accessory cases take up, but I wouldn't give them up, as they have a (clearly marked) place for every part, and that helps me make sure that all the parts are back in secure storage, so they're not knocking around where they could cause injuries, or be at risk of being dulled, dented, or otherwise damaged, or going missing. It's definitely worth the space.
If you like cooking from scratch; if you like cooking with fresh, wholesome ingredients; if you can, dehydrate, or freeze dry foods for your own use; or have physical limitations which affect your ability to prepare fresh ingredients, I think this is an investment well worth making. It is the top of the line, and you will not end up kicking yourself for deciding you could get by with a lesser machine. From my point of view, just the fact that we're eating better since getting this is justification enough, but I can also see that it will help us retain our independence longer, as we can age in place better, enjoying fresh, wholesome foods, and avoiding chemical additives.
Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it helpful.
You do get the last slice of whatever vegetable you were dicing - undiced. But this is where Breville shines. You take the bowl off the processor, remove the cover and the slicing disk that sits on top of the dicing blade. Then use the specially made dicing cleaner to push the last slice of the vegetable through the dicing mesh, and here you go - no waste at all. You go with the cleaner all around the dicing blade to push down whatever got stuck in there. The other two food processors had similar cleaner tools, too, but breville added metal guides to the cleaner so you do not run the risk of slicing a bit of plastic off the cleaner into your food as it was happening with the other two food processors.
Other functions do work very well, too. Even potato peeling works well, although it only does smaller round potatoes and only in small batches,s o I do not bother with it.
Many of the parts of the food processor are not dishwasher safe, unfortunately - they have empty spaces inside and I guess water would collect in there and it would be too hard to remove it. Besides, washing all the parts in the dishwasher would take half of dishwasher space - it is all very large.
Slicing works great, grating works great.
The storage box is huge and you need a bunch of space on top and behind it in order to open the top. The dicing kit sits in a tray under the storage box, so you have to lift the box to get to it. It is not the best design, but I am not sure how I would have made it better. The food processor is big, although it is not as big as 16 cup kitchenaid, and the accessories are large, too. I put the box on a kitchen cart so I can open the lid freely and get to everything. I would not like storing it in the cupboards.
There might still be room for improvement, but It is pretty much near perfect for me.
Top reviews from other countries
First of all, the design of this machine is sleek and modern. The silver and plastic finish looks great on my countertop, and the 16-cup capacity is perfect for making meals for my family of four. But what really sets this machine apart from others is the Peel and Dice feature. This is an absolute game-changer for anyone who spends a lot of time chopping and peeling vegetables.
The machine comes with three different chute sizes for different sized fruits and vegetables, and it even has a separate chute for potatoes. This means I can easily and quickly peel and dice a wide variety of fruits and vegetables without having to spend hours doing it by hand. It's also great for making things like salsa, where you need a lot of small, evenly diced vegetables.
But the Peel and Dice feature is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what this machine can do. It also comes with a wide variety of other blades and discs, including a micro-serrated S-Blade, a dough blade, and a whisking disc. I've used these to make everything from dough for pizza crust to whipped cream, and they all work beautifully.
Another great feature of this machine is the adjustable slicing disc, which allows you to choose the thickness of your slices. This is perfect for making things like potato chips or thinly sliced vegetables for stir-fry.
One thing I really appreciate about the Breville BFP820BAL is how easy it is to clean. The various parts are all dishwasher safe, and the machine itself is easy to wipe down with a damp cloth. The storage box that comes with it is also a nice touch, as it keeps all of the parts organized and easy to find.
Overall, I cannot recommend the Breville BFP820BAL The Sous Chef Peel and Dice Food Processor enough. This machine has made food prep so much easier and more enjoyable for me, and I know it will do the same for anyone who invests in it. It's definitely a bit of a splurge, but in my opinion, it's worth every penny.
This one is no exception: well-conceived, reasonably small footprint, a bit noisy but not unreasonable, and it slices and dices so fast it seems almost a waste of time to take it out until you figure how long a given job would take otherwise! So far I've used it for mayonnaise, sauces, vegetables, creamed soups, almond milk - it just does it all, way faster than you can get the ingredients cleaned and fed in there. I generally don't bother cleaning the bowl between steps, especially if it's for the same dish, but it's quick to rinse, and you could always order an extra bowl or two if you have more storage space than rinsing time; the staff at Breville is exceptionally helpful.
When you are using the slicing feature, you have to be a bit careful to keep things upright or they get caught under the cover, and you get big flat lengthwise slices sitting on top of the blade instead of a cross-section slices inside the bowl. That one's mostly a "training issue" though - I think it can be managed if only I could figure the right sleight of wrist!
Most parts are dishwasher-safe, but some hand-washing is required with each use, as the large plunger - not dishwasher-safe - needs to be used to get the machine going.
The best of the best feature of this machine is the dicing: it comes with a 12-mm dicing set, and you can get 8-mm and 16-mm as options. I got it mostly for that feature - originally to help deal with arthritis but you really don't need that to justify getting this baby: it's difficult to get things diced this evenly and it does it in seconds - takes 'waaay longer to clean the vegetables than to cut them.
The machine is a real timesaver and totally Breville-sturdy. Definitely would recommend it to a friend.
