The KitchenAid®PRO LINE™ Series Food Processor is engineered
to provide commercial quality performance. A professional 16-cup work
bowl and extra-wide feed tube sit atop a rugged die-cast metal base.
The powerful 1000-watt motor is designed to make quick work of
the most demanding food preparation tasks. The heavy-gauge
cutting blades and discs are made from the highest quality stainless
steel for exceptionally clean slicing and shredding. This machine
doesn’t trade performance for capacity – you’ll achieve extraordinary
results no matter what the task.
The outstanding performance is matched by exceptional
convenience. A mini bowl and mini blade transform the PRO LINE™
Series food processor into a mini-chopper, the perfect tool for finely
chopping herbs, nuts, onions, and garlic. The Ultra Wide Mouth™
Feed Tube is one of the industry’s largest – it will process tomatoes,
cucumbers, and potatoes with a minimum of sectioning or slicing. Another great timesaver is the 13-cup
chef’s bowl: place it inside the work bowl, and you’ll be able to slice or shred an item while keeping the
work bowl clean for another ingredient.
The KitchenAid®PRO LINE™ Series: professional quality for the discriminating home chef. From the
company distinguished by its legendary craftsmanship.
