Powerful food processor
I got the Ninja Professional XL and I’m glad I did. Prepping dinner is faster now — I can throw in big batches of veggies, let the machine shred or chop while I focus elsewhere, and by the time I’m done the bowl is done too. Cleaning is easy enough, and having the slicer/shredder options means I’m doing less by hand. On the flip side, it’s sizeable. I have to make sure ...

Bad quality, poor item
After les than a year the motor can't even tackle shredding cheese, let alone vegetables. Give this a pass.

Amaing quality. Love the durability of this food processor. I have been using this for long time and fall in love every time i use it. The way it processes the food is amazing. My go to machine for chopping and mincing. Its not too loud while using. The cleaning is very easy too. Never felt like a hustle.

A brand worth every penny
From the visual perspective to the intelligent performance, this processor is a powerhouse. I wanted something that will last and with a strong motor. A breeze to clean up. I absolutely love this processor and found it to be the perfect addition to my kitchen.

Great for meat grinder
This food processor is amazing! I mainly use it for making meat floss, and it handles the job perfectly every time. The motor is powerful, and it shreds the meat evenly and quickly. It’s also great for chopping, slicing, and mixing other ingredients. Easy to clean and very durable. Highly recommend for anyone who needs a reliable food processor!

Great food processor!
Absolutely loved this food processor! The main added value for me is the fact that now I'm able to grind meat! Game changer, I won't buy ground meat anymore as now I'm able to select any desired meat and grind, along with spices and seasonings so I can always have the freshest ground meat possible! Absolutely love it! Worth every penny!

This Ninja food processor is truly an essential addition to any kitchen. After using two prominent brand-name food processors in the past, I can confidently say that this one is my favorite. It features an impressive 1200-watt motor base, which provides exceptional power and efficiency. The strong suction cups on the base ensure that the processor remains securely in pl...

No consistency in chopping
I made both salsa and guacamole so far. With the salsa using 3 romas, I ended up with half mush and still huge chunks of tomatoes left. Same with onion and the guacamole, it’s half minuscule and half large chunks. I tried doing 4 habaneros by themselves as my salsa needed a little more spice and it couldn’t chop them at all, they just spun around. So very disappointed f...

Never make dough with a Ninja food processor
The 12-Cup Processor Bowl has broked after my 2nd pizza dough. The Blades doesn't spin anymore. Only 1 year of usage. Don't use use dough, it's too heavy for the bowl.

Terrible
I would rather put my dog down than tangle with this piece of junk. Few times I can recollect being more disappointed in my life. The thing doesn’t even turn on. I have to chop and mash all of the ingredients to my recipes meanwhile I’ve spent substantial money on this product which doesn’t do anything but take up space. I’ll be getting a refund, and anyone else who is ...

Terrible Design
I've had two products and the blade stem have failed on both causing the blade to get stuck when chopping.

Design flaw.
Don't buy it. There is a basic design flaw. The stem inside the bowl (where you attach the blade) is poorly attached to the rotating mechanism. The motor may be powerful but when you try to use it for making dough, the stem becomes unglued and the blades stop turning (even though the motor is running). This happened on my first one about 2 months after I bought it. Afte...

Replaces my old leaking food processor, my cheap blender, and my old stand mixer! Love it! Gazpacho in 10 minutes on auto puree.

Simply Terrific
Needed a more powerful machine to handle frozen fruit when making smoothies and this Ninja Professional XL Food Processor does not disappoint in providing the power to chop through the frozen fruit with ease due to the sharp multi-layer blades. Surprisingly not as loud as I expected. Easy to clean. Overall a terrific food processor.

NEED TO OFFER A 2ND SMALLER BOWL TO BUY
They should offer a smaller bowl that you could buy separately. THEN, it would be PERFECT! 12 cups is too big to use all the time. As much as i love Ninja tools, I'll have to keep looking.

Nothing about this product so I like.
The unit shakes uncontrollably when using the disc function. It does nothing promised. “Chop” pulverizes your veggies into mush. The disc function does not work as advertised the items get stuck in the top. The buttons are really hard to push. Returning ASAP!

Love it
This processor is huge! Which is great for my needs. I did a French bread dough recipe first. This dough takes cups a flour. I will say the last cup bogged the motor down. Next time I will use pulse on the final cup instead of dough to help it from breaking the unit. Love the adjustable slicer!! And so happy there’s a large grate and small grate for cheese.
