Looking for a new Food Processor
- Thread starter joec
- Start date
It didn't dawn on me.
It was the Cuisinart DLC-7Pro I had that had the dough blade. Looked almost similar to the one for the K'Aid machine.
Mine is the Cuisinart DLC-10S Pro Classic 7 cup which all the blades also work in the 11 qt version.

As a matter of fact the Cuisinart I posted above was made in France by Robot Coupe sa.
PS:
And Robot-Coupe still sells parts for it at http://www.robotcoupe.net/

Don't you mean 11 CUPS?
Wart yes, Robot Coupe had introduced them back them.
In the early to mid '80s, the machines pracically flew off the store shelves, as everyone and their brother wanted to try them out. The machines helped chefs and gourmet cooks alike prep foods in record time and got them out of the kitchen fast.
Yes I meant cups not qts.
I love my KA 14 cup, but I already messed up one of the slicer blades, ug! I love to make my own Chinese and Thai dishes, and used it to thin slice the meat for the dishes. It worked best when they were partially frozen as fully thawed it just kinda ripped apart.
Unfortunately, I ran some chicken breast thru it that was completely frozen instead of partially thawed and it messed up the blade.
I do have both an emulsifier blade and a dough blade, but had problems mixing dough as it wanted to stick to the bowl and blade. I also have the juicer attachment which is pretty cool. It also has two sizes of bowls and cutting blades in it and the wide mouth feeding tube with a smaller feeding tube inside that.

OMG!
That REALLY tears it. Hopefully, you can get parts for it without spending a fortune. Try SmallAppliance.com.
Wart, here's your machine again. Found this on Google. Looks like whoever owns it bought every disk imaginable that can be used with it!
Must have cleaned out the store!

That was Carl Sonnineheimer [sp].
But that isn't a Robot Coupe!
These are Robot Coupes!
The Terminator [Robot Coupe RSI 3Y1 Food Processor]
R2D2 [Robot Coupe R2 Food Processor] Without his food chute.
GOTCHA SHERM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, the Cuisinart had the exact same shape as the Robot Coupe when it was introduced around '73. Yes, I know.
The machine in your bottom pic DOES look like R2D2. Those 2 must cost a pretty penny!
I've used a model quite similar to the bottom one when I worked for a catering co..

Now that you post it, Yeah, the Club has a Robot-Coupe.
Never impressed me as being all that .... sophisticated or ... pretty.
It was brutal and effective. And if the jackasses at the club didn't break it it must be one hell-of-a machine.
And it sure isn't something you want to have fall on your foot.
Time for me to make my first pie crust with it,

I was teasing you paraphrasing from the movie Crocodile Dundee. Remember the line as the thug brought out a switchblade knife on Crocodile Dundee?
"That's not a knife...........[as Crocodile Dundee brings out his huge bowie knife]......."this is a knife!"
BTW: A friend of mine who sells used restaurant supplies sold me the R2D2 with the chute, knife, and some disks for only $50!
OMG! You truly are the Queen of the Bargain! $50 is a steal!

Yeah, I think I remember that line in the movie.
The metal Robot Coupe looks like an Army tank!
Before the eletric food processor dazzled us all in the early '70s, the was this '60s item - the manual jar chopper. My mother had one of these when we were growing up. In later years, it came with a plastic pad inside at the bottom of the jar to keep the blades from breaking it.
And then, there's the Oster Kitchen Center. This one looks pretty much like the one that I had.

With the very first Job I ever had, I bought my Mom an "Oster Kitchen Center" for Christmas (mid-late 70's) she loved it! Man that takes me back!
I have no idea what happened to it after she passed away though.

Dag!! In fact, the dome lids on BOTH of these machines make them look much like R2D2!
