Pros

  • Sharp, efficient blades deliver powerful and fast performance for slicing, shredding, and grating with minimal effort.
  • The 1up capacity and included 4.5-cup insert offer good versatility, suitable for both large and smaller batch food prep.
  • Compact design stores parts neatly inside the bowl, eliminating the need for extra storage space.
  • Welngineered components fit tightly with no rattling, giving a sturdy and high-quality feel.
  • Easy to clean overall, especially compared to previous models, which is a big plus for frequent use.
  • Heavuty build with high-quality materials ensures durability and reliability for everyday kitchen tasks.
  • Versatile enough to handle shredding cheese, grinding meat, and making salad dressings efficiently.
  • The motor is strong and fast, and the unit is lighter than older versions, making it easier to handle.
  • Great value for the price, especially if you do a lot of meal prep and want multifunctional performance in one appliance.

Cons

  • The plastic gear mechanism feels somewhat flimsy, and the motor base is not sealed, so you have to be very careful during cleaning to avoid liquid damage.
  • Controls can be confusing: the bowl lock and pusher lock turn in opposite directions, which takes some getting used to.
  • The dicing attachment is disappointing, leaving leftover waste on blades and difficult to clean, so it’s not recommended for dicing.
  • The small bowl accessory tends to cause dry ingredients (like flour) to collect on the inner lip of the larger bowl, making it tricky to incorporate fully, especially for small pastry batches.
  • Dough blade is missing, an odd omission for those who bake frequently and want a true aln-one processor.
  • Cannot add ingredients through the feed tube while the machine is running, which limits multitasking during recipes.
  • Must unplug the machine after use to stop annoying blinking lights, which can be inconvenient during multiple prep tasks.
  • Overall design can frustrate frequent users, making it less useriendly than expected for an otherwise high-performing appliance.

Bottom Line

The Cuisinart FP-130MB Core Custom 13-Cup Multifunctional Food Processor is a powerful, well-built machine that excels at a wide variety of food prep tasks with sharp blades and a roomy capacity. It stores neatly and cleans easier than previous models, making it a solid choice for everyday use if you value efficiency and durability. However, expect a bit of a learning curve due to some quirky design choices like the confusing locking system, lack of a dough blade, and tricky dry ingredient handling. If you frequently dice or bake, or want fully sealed and robust parts for worry-free cleaning, you might want to explore other options, but for general multifunctional use, this model offers excellent value and performance.
