Worst food processor EVER!
Pros:
Smooth operation; fairly quiet (for a food processor).
Cons:
The bowl doesn't unlock from the base without massive effort. And sometimes not even then.
The Bottom Line:
I do not recommend this processor unless you have superhuman strength.

So bad I threw it in the trash in a fit of anger.
I received the Kenmore 10 cup food processor for Christmas and couldn't wait to try it out. Grabbed some Romano, snapped the bowl in the base, set up the shredding disc, cover on, vrooom! Here comes shredded cheese!
Smooth operation, not as loud as most processors. I was pretty pleased. Until I tried to get the bowl off the base.
I struggled with it for several minutes, massaging it out a bit and applying as much pressure as I dared without breaking it. Finally gave up and scooped the cheese out of the bowl and left it sit. Came back to it a bit later, gave the bowl a mighty twist, and it finally came off.
So I was annoyed, but not ready to give up on it yet. Tried again a few days later with some veggies for salsa. Again, the bowl just flat would not release from the base. Read the instructions again; didn't see where there was some trick to it. Tried some more. Said to heck with it, scooped out my veggies, and threw the evil food processor from hell in the trash.
Replaced it with a Black & Decker Quick & Easy 8-cup that cost me $30 at Wal-Mart, and has been a breeze to use. Food processors are supposed to simplify your prep work, not irritate you so bad that you say swear words.
