Hey! Are you pondering buying this? If yes, read this short recite and say it was helpful.
And then, look at the other safe bet reviews and click the box. Why do I say do this? Because this is a very solid food processor, so spread the word. Mine arrived today. I spread the parts on the table. I gave it all the engineer’s once-over. All parts clicked in place properly. I said to my son “look at this… Most food processors have a line on the bowl that says ‘maximum fill level’ for liquids. Braun Multiquick 3 K650. Do you see why? Because the mechanism can only take a small amount of liquid before it overflows and you have a mess on your hands. Look: see that the blade control is sealed? I can fill this to the top. It appears to be a consolidate quarts. I’ve never before owned a food processor that can do that.”
We tinkered with the parts. It’s not just chopping and slicing and bread blade. It’s also got mixer for egg whites or whipped cream. Dear Lord! Now my Kitchen Aid and food processor must do battle! But now to the leading bit: it’s got changeable speed! What’s stopping other food processor makers from adding that? Now I have a food processor muscling in on the territory of both my Kitchen Aid mixer and my Vitamix. But that’s all good for me.
Yes, I spent a few bucks more for the Braun than I might have on the others I might have bought. However, I’m sharing the love with the reviewers as I read sufficient to perceive that the other manufacturers have gotten either cocky or lazy and have dropped the ball with support. I am a businessman with a great product, but the day I decree that things can’t go wrong between creation and buyer satisfaction is the day I decree to abandon both my stock and my customers. So far, it seems Braun has kept that attitude where their competitors have lost that edge.
Summary: This is the best designed food processor in its class. Don’t elect to save a few dollars in this case and get one of the lower-cost food processors; you will regret it. Note: I rarely offer this guidance because, most of they time, I reconsider recovery money to be the best idea.
We found the Braun CombiMax K-650 so much best than any Cuisinart.
It has 14 speeds.
The Cuisinart has only one speed. (The dough switch provides more power but with the same speed).
The bowl of the (eight cups) Braun is as big as the “11 cup” Cuisinart.
The town shaft inside the bowl is sealed so you can fill it with fluid to a higher level.
The bowl cover of the Braun can be removed with a light twist. It is much more involved on the Cuisinart.
Also, removing the bowl is much easier on the Braun.
This food processor is so much easy to use and we use it approximately every day.
About 25 years ago, my wife and I bought a Braun food processor. We used it for over 23 years, replacing the bowl once and the stalks that held the cutting disks about three times. We only gave it up when it started leaking oil. We replaced it with a Cuisinart that didn’t have multiple speeds and did have a complex and largely inscrutable lid locking theory that finally failed–we needed to stick a screwdriver into the lid to make it work. So we found this Braun, which is similar to but an correction on our old one, and it’s great! Very lightweight, the bowl and lid plainly snap into place, there’s infinite speed control, and the cutting disks and stalks have been redesigned to be much sturdier. Beats Cuisinart by a mile.
