After reading the negative reviews I was not feeling great about making the purchase but made it anyway because I needed a blender and processor. Here is my report. The blender is not made to process foods. Things like hummus and pesto must be processed. The processor works great for these items. The blender does make good smoothies, unless you are trying to liquify frozen stuff. It won't magically turn solids into liquids. You must use more liquid than solid, or you lose functionality. Before I figured this out, the motor would get stressed and make an unhappy smell. Once I figured out to cover the solid (frozen fruit) with liquid (almond milk) then the blender functioned perfectly for making smoothies. So, DON'T BLEND STUFF THAT ISN'T INTENDED ON BEING A LIQUID. When combining things in the blender, you need slightly more than 50% liquid when you start, otherwise the blender bogs down. If it does bog down, just add more liquid and voila!, blender happiness. Basically, you need to be smarter than the blender. If making frozen drinks, you must cover the ice with enough liquid so that the mass FLOWS while being blended, otherwise, the beverage would be to thick anyway. I strongly suspect that some of the dissatisfied customers were people who were not intuitive about what the blender was capable of doing. Good luck!

I have been looking for a dual-purpose blender/food processor for a while. Even though the Cuisinart BFP-603 SmartPower Deluxe only has a rather small food processor bowl, I have still decided to buy this model as it seemed the best currently available at this price level. I have so far only used the blender for making smoothies and blending soups, and I'm very satisfied. It's very powerful and I only need to blend for 10-20 seconds to achieve the desired result. The blender jar is thick glass, so ideal for blending soups (after leaving them to cool for a few minutes). The machine is very easy to use, and easy to assemble. It also looks great in the kitchen.Best Deals for Cuisinart BFP-603 SmartPower Deluxe Blender and Food Processor
This food processor is the perfect size for smaller jobs. With a family of 3, I frequently need only a few cloves of garlic or a cup of bread crumbs. This processor is perfect for the smaller jobs. All the parts are easy to clean, top rack of the dishwasher. Blender is easy to use and powerful enough to break up even large cubes of ice. We use it to make smoothies with frozen fruit, no problems! Sturdy base to handle the powerful motor. Easy to use & recipes included in instruction booklet.Honest reviews on Cuisinart BFP-603 SmartPower Deluxe Blender and Food Processor
After using a food processor/blender that lasted 20 years (not kidding!) I looked for a replacement because the plastic became cracked. I decided on this one. I recently got into making frozen fruit smoothies which prompted me to find a new appliance. I bought this one, and I think that it would work well for non-frozen ingredients fine but not frozen. The entire thing shakes around the table when I turn it on. The blender's blades weren't long enough to blend the fruit, so it took about 15 minutes of blending, using a fork to stir it up, blending again, etc. So I tried using the food processor for the smoothies...that lasted a little while until the mixture started leaking up out of the cap. The blender part seemed of high quality but the food processor's plastic body felt cheap. Overall, I would not recommend this product unless you don't plan on using frozen ingredients. I will be returning it, but I still have no idea what to replace it with that is in my budget...if anyone has any suggestions, please help!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Cuisinart BFP-603 SmartPower Deluxe Blender and Food Processor
I got this for my parents for Christmas. They have been using it regularly for about a month intensively and it has worked beatifully. It is a high quality product, looks great, and takes up much less space than having two separate blender and food processor units.
