## Description

Unlock the power of your Vitamix blender motor base and the precision of a large-capacity, full-featured food processor with the Vitamix 12-Cup Food Processor Attachment with SELF-DETECT. Designed to chop, mince, knead, mix, shred, and slice ingredients, this food processor blender attachment makes food prep a breeze. To use, simply stack the SELF-DETECT base, work bowl, and lid together—no complicated twist-lock mechanism. Plus, the Food Processor Attachment features SELF-DETECT technology to automatically shut off the motor if not safely assembled. This durable, BPA-free blender attachment is dishwasher-safe (except the SELF-DETECT base) for easy maintenance. The included multi-use blade is ideal for chopping, mincing, kneading, and mixing, and the two reversible discs let you create fine shreds and thin slices or coarse shreds and thick slices. Large and small food chutes and food pushers can handle almost any ingredient. When you're done, the Food Processor Attachment easily converts into a compact, self-contained storage mode with a Stack-and-Store Disc Case to keep all the parts together safely. Compatible with Ascent and Venturist Series Vitamix blenders.

Review: Should have bought it sooner - I have a Vitamix Venturist and have been considering this food processor for a long time before finally deciding it was worth trying. I use it almost weekly and honestly wish I would have bought it sooner. It's terrific for making sauces, pasta dough, tart dough, biscuits, shredding fruits and vegetables in bulk and a host of other things. It's not the easiest thing to clean but it breaks down into several pieces. I will readily admit that cleaning up is the worst part of using it, but I think that's to be expected when it comes to cooking and baking in general. The two included discs can be used to shred or slice thick or thin and they come with a very nice storage case. The entire unit is very well built and I can't see anything breaking or fatiguing anytime soon; it exudes quality just like the blender and motor base does. One thing to note, however, is that once the food processor attachment is on the motor base you cannot change the speed of the motor. It's either on or off at a predetermined speed, which is probably for the best. It can be pulsed or run continuously. If you're considering this and already have a compatible base motor you should pony-up the bucks and buy one.
Review: Excellent food processor with the only drawback - only available in USA and Canada - The Vitamix food processor is a brilliant attachment that combines the strength of the Vitamix motor with food processing. The attachment is a smart tool that gears down the speed of the food processor spindle by seven-fold. It is pretty easy to test this theory by comparing the rotation of the axle that attaches to the coupling device on the motor and the rotation of the axle that the S-blade/ discs attaches to. The food processor makes smooth humus and is a great tool of making nut butters. The benefit of using the food processor to make nut butter is that it is easier to clean than using the blender jug. The only mistake that Vitamix has made is in the instructions for making nut butter - it is not possible to make nut butter in 2.5 minutes in a food processor. The real time is about 5-10 minutes and it will require several attempts. Attached is a photo showing the nut butter - it is pretty comical that it is rolled into a ball but it definitely is nut butter. It is a shame that Vitamix has no intentions to release this attachment outside USA and Canada as many Vitamix users around the world would find it incredibly useful.
