I have this one and use it multiple times a week. Mostly to make avocado crema for Taco Tuesdays. It is a nice food processor and I like it. The only thing is the small bowl that you can buy separately doesn't really fit inside it so you have to store it separately. That's the only negative I really have.

Does anybody know where to get attachments to these Cusinart food processors? I bought one in costco the other day, and had to spend 40 bucks for french fries slicer. That's ridiculous. Is there any third-party places?

Which parts are refurbished? Have the bowl and blades and other parts that touch food been used before, or are they new and only the motor base is refurbished?

These things always tempt me. Then I realize my 40 year old Moulinex is still going strong.

The DLC-8 is the one to have. They've been making it for decades, and have kept parts/accessories available. Mine is from the 90s.

The DLC-8SBCYP1 seems like a great deal for $89 if the warranty is good. A used 11 cup DLC-8 will often need a replacement work bowl costing $100 or more. These new made-in-malaysia models aren't as durable as the original made in Japan but that's o.k. for $89 I just got an original Japanese made DLC-8 Plus for free on CL.

Discs: 11 are available. One reason to buy a vintage model with the snap-on stem discs is the wide availability of the high quality Japanese discs for free or low cost. A new accessory disc costs $40.

Trivia: The DLC-8 was a luxury item in 1987 selling for $250 which is $699 in 2025 dollars. They came with a 30 year warranty on the Japanese motor.

Plenty of vintage DLC 8's out there to be had cheap but typically need a new bowl. My find is in like-new condition apparently hidden away in a cupboard since 1987. Has the original amber color poly carbonate work bowl. The color litho owners manual recipe book is a rare bonus. This thing is powerful , quiet and heavy like a tank, amazing.

For those who want to buy vintage if you buy a replacement bowl then make sure to get the upgraded Eastman Tritan co-polyester.

I use Vitamix for processing that was once done in the FP. Hummus and emulsifying are two things better performed by FP. Sauces, marinades I prefer the 32 oz jar V.M.

You're saying this refurb is the Japanese one or are you saying it's better to look on fb marketplace for an older one?

They haven't been made in Japan for decades. If you need an 11 cup medium size FP then you are unlikely to find a better deal. Read the reviews for the specific model. They are now built to last 3 years not 30. You can look for a used vintage one with the powerful high torque motor but if it needs a new four piece work bowl then you exceed the price of this deal even if you get the machine for free. There is the pleasure in using older well made gear but newer low torque models are good enough for non-epicurean kitchen work. If you need a powerful FP then you already know what for.

edit: The advanced features not present in older models can outweigh higher durability. Read the reviews.

I can vouch for the durability of even the newer models. I bought one probably 15 years ago and the motor is still plowing through anything I can throw at it. The mixing bowl has developed some scratches on the inside from when I tried making some fresh breadcrumbs from rather dense bakery bread. I did tear the bread into small chunks, but not small enough. The processor blade lifted off the spindle and left some serious marks inside the bowl. Solution: just use smaller chunks and don't make too much at a time.

FYI: if the processor blade of the machine you've been using has visible rivets attaching them to the plastic core, STOP using it and check this link [cpsc.gov] for recall info. They'll mail you a new, improved replacement.

[ "I can vouch for the durability of even the newer models. I bought one probably 15 years ago" ...]

Experience with a product purchased 15 years ago is likely not relevant. Materials and specifications can change mid-year now with rising costs. Price looks slick but IDK anything about these models. The Cuisinart brand was sold and changed hands in 1989, 1998, 2007.

In 2021 I posted a factory direct Kitchen Aid KFP0919 light duty 9 cup FP as a factory refurbished deal 80% off. The model number hasn't changed but the product internals have. K-A had to take back early production and replace substandard motors which died and work bowls which just fell apart. Fortunately K-A is very good about standing behind their products even after warranty runs. They've sent two new bowls but there isn't any way of fixing an engineering defect with the handle and safety interlock held together by two tiny micro screws. Disposable junk. Back in 2003 K-A was producing the KFP600, a high torque heavy duty model made in France to compete with Cuisinart. Within no time they cost-reduced it to China production.
