The unit lives on the counter-top as it is used daily. I bought it as I have arthritis in my hands and things like chopping fine, or grating really can get painful later. The speed of prep now is amazingly fast. And the cleanup is quick & easy. Having reversible blades means that you only store one of each...slicer and grater but benefit from 4 blades. If you plan it right, you chop the onion-remove chop blade-add grater-grate fine carrots- change blade-fine slice celery. You get the picture...all in one bowl then into the pan! You still need to prep veg to right size but its more fun now! Haven't tried the bread mixing attachment yet.

I think this is a very good processor and at an affordable price. It is ideal for a smaller kitchen with less space because the motor is underneath the mixing bowl, not to the side like some processors. I like the suction pads on the bottom which make it very secure on the kitchen top. It has a variety of attachments which do everything you want. It is also quiet and easy to use. I don't have anything negative to say about this product.
