Chaps, the title of the thread says it best. My wife and I currently have a Kitchenaid model we bought years ago. Model is RRKFP350 WH. All I can tell you is the WH means white. The hopper will hold about 1 litre of material but you would never want to try to process that much in it. I have found that 1-1/2 to a VERY maximum 3 cups of food is about it. It works much better with smaller amounts. Another processor would be an addendum to what we have currently. Just to handle bigger loads.
Now we don't necessarily need a monstrous 12-14 cup model but certainly something bigger than we have now. The main thing is decent quality with easy to use controls. The mind goes immediately to Cuisinart and truth told, those large flat run and pulse buttons are very easy to use and foolproof. However, I don't want to overlook something else out of brand envy. Sizes? And by that I mean both capacity and storage space! Some of these processors you see at Kohl's and similar take up a HUGE amount of space. I really don't like the idea of a tonne of accessories either. Just the typical slicing and chopping blades and easy to clean, durable hopper. Fire away.
