Cuisinart Duet
The Cuisinart Duet food processor and blender gives you the best of both worlds. With the same shared solidly built Cuisinart motor in the base, you can attach a standard glass blender or the Cuisiart bowl and cutting wheels up above – for maximum utility and easy storage.
I was raised on a Cuisinart food processor. My mom always enjoyed cutting potatoes for home fries, vegetables for her yummy home made soups and chopping fruit for pies in the Cuisinart. When I got older and started doing my own baking, I really enjoyed using the Cuisinart to knead the dough for my own fresh home made bread.
It wasn’t until I reached the age of 21 that I needed a blender of my own (And before you ask, YES! Margaritas are good enough to merit their own appliance!) But now we use our blender for smoothies too. (Fresh fruit + Yogurt = Easy and Delicious!)
If you’re looking for your own reliable, useful and highly functional kitchen appliances, you can’t go wrong with the Cuisinart duet.
The Cuisinart CBT-500FP SmartPower Premier Duet Blender/Food Processor is the top of the line model. It’s 600 watts of power can crush ice, or slice vegetables, and everything in between.
The blender’s glass pitcher has a 50-oz capacity, and the Cuisinart food processor bowl holds 3 cups. It’s not the biggest in the world, but it saves on counter space and cabinet space. After using my mom’s larger Cuisinart growing up, I had no problem switching to the smaller 3 cup Cuisinart bowl. It works great for cooking for my family of 3.
If you want to buy the Cuisinart duet, I suggest you shop at amazon.com to find the best prices. They will help you save up to 24% off the retail price of this product, and with free shipping, there’s nothing to lose. I personally get a lot of amazon.com shopping credit through my credit card, and then I can use it to buy Christmas presents for everyone on my list. If you shop at amazon.com a lot – and they do often have the best prices – it makes sense to take a look at getting your Cuisinart food processor there as well.
