ROBOT DE CUISINE KITCHENAID RED EMPIRE 5KFP0719EER

I am extremely disappointed with this product.

For nearly 10 years, I owned an older version of similar KitchenAid food processor while living in the U.S., and it worked perfectly. Unfortunately, I had to leave it behind when I moved to France. One of the first things I did after relocating was buy a new one, assuming it would be at least as good as the previous model. Sadly, the older version was no longer available, and this newer model has been a huge downgrade.

The biggest issue is slicing. With the older model, I could precisely adjust slice thickness. With this one, there is no real adjustability. You are limited to fixed blades (4 mm and 6 mm), and even those are inconsistent. Because of the large gap between the blade and the lid, slice thickness depends entirely on how hard you push the food. Light pressure gives thinner slices, harder pressure gives thicker ones, up to 6 mm. If you need truly thin slices (2?euro;?3 mm), for example for gratins, it is simply impossible. This is incredibly frustrating, especially since slicing and shredding vegetables is the main reason I bought this appliance.
There is also no fine shredding disc, only a coarse one. As the cup now tall rather than wide, the multi-purpose blade produces very uneven results: some pieces are over-processed into a paste while others remain large. Even if you stop, shake the bowl, and restart, the consistency remains poor.

Overall, this feels like a major regression rather than an improvement. Compared to my older KitchenAid food processor, this model is significantly worse in functionality and usability. I genuinely regret this purchase and deeply miss my old model

Rien à dire, fidèle à la marque kitchenaid, qui pour moi sont les meilleurs en terme d?euro;?électroménager.

Le robot est magnifique il coupe bien, le seul bémol la grille pour les carottes râpe trop gros il faudrait une grille supplémentaire pour râper plus fin.

parfait !! Produit robuste et de bonne facture. Ideal pour préparer de bons petits repas !

Je suis contente de mon achat. J'ai préparé rapidement un repas pour 8 personnes en suivant quelques recettes.
Seul bémol, dommage qu'il manque un disque pour râper plus fin et le decoupe carré vendus uniquement sur un grand modèle.
