This Kitchenaid food processor comes with a 9-cup bowl and a 4-cup bowl so you can use it for things like chopping a single onion.

Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
That's the one I have, I am pretty sure. All the pieces go into the dishwasher (except the base, of course), works great. I've had mine for, hm, must be four years with nary a problem.
For blenders - I really like my Cuisinart with a heater built in for making soups and whatnot. All the pieces except the part with the heater go in the dishwasher, and it comes with a good stiff brush for the part that needs hand washing.
Possibly having a heating element in your blender is not universally desired. I am willing to concede that.
For blending, I almost never use my blender-blender now that I have a stick blender. So convenient! Right in the soup pot! (I pretty much only blend soup.)
I've never been happy with my stick blender. It's probably this particular one, and not the whole set of stick blenders, but I can't justify getting a different one to myself when I have one that isn't broken, just not very effective.
::small voice:: I have a stick blender I've never used.
Seconding the stick blender love.
I love my stick blender, but I don't think they last as long as regular blenders do - I have to replace mine about every two years.
What happens to them that they need replacing?
They just burn out and stop working.
I'm ready for my stick blender to die so I can get a more powerful one! I love what it does but it takes so long to do it. Still it's much easier than blending soups in the blender. The blender I mostly use for smoothies.
