We got this as a gift so gave it a try. We were not sure if we were going to keep it as we already have a good food processor. After using it, I have to say that this one is staying and the previous one is going away. We had Breville Juicer and already love it, and just like that juicer this is the best food processor I have ever used, and we love to cook so have worked with many. Pros: Powerful but quiet motor. Comes with many attachments and a very nice storage box for all the attachments which is a big plus. Chops really fast and with great precision. Cons: Can't really think of any for now. I have been using it for a week now and absolutely love it. We highly recommend for anyone who love to cook.
*WORKHORSE* of a food processor!

Admittedly, I didn't know what I was getting into when I got this product. This is not your run-of-the-mill food processor - it's a commercial grade piece of equipment that's capable of both high levels of consistency and high-levels of use over an extended periods of time. And, as a bonus, it's a gorgeous piece of machinery that Breville is known for. The motor on the machine seems like it weighs 10 pounds, so I'm sure it can handle whatever food processor needs you might have. I'm opening a catering business and feel privileged to have such a powerful machine. I included the picture of the blade/attachment container because that aspect doesn't get talked about enough. That container isn't meant to just be a way to ship those items - it's a permanent storage container that is thoughtfully designed and quite durable in it's own right. It's a very considerate bonus by Breville. Lastly, and suprisingly to me, most of the parts are dishwasher safe. Importantly, the blades are dishwasher safe. If you've never reached into a sink of hot soapy water and not known there were food processor blades, trust me - it's an experience you want to avoid. One more thing that I just remembered, there is a 'small bowl' attachment that can go in the food processor. I didn't really understand its purpose at first - but with such a large food processor, the small bowl attachment enables you to process smaller quantities of food without having bits and pieces of food lost in the nooks of the food processor's largest bowl. It's a very smart idea.

The Breville Sous Chef 16 is a beast of a machine. It is Purpose built for jobs large and Small. The selection of blades and accessories is staggering and the included case organizes them very well. Over the past week I have put the machine through its paces with a variety of jobs. The unit has handled everything I have thrown at it with ease. The adjustable slicer makes awesome pickles, and the kids love the apples and pineapple chips. The cheese grater blade makes quick work of even the largest and toughest blocks. It will pay for itself just in the savings over bagged cheese. The french fry blade worked flawlessly as well, though I admit I wish there was a way to adjust it for different shapes and sizes. The fact that everything save the motor can be popped right into the dish washer is incredibly convenient. I would recommend this unit to anyone with medium to large processing jobs.
