Title: Really not what it used to be
Review: I have used the same two Cuisinarts for 30 years, but the cup and cover finally cracked on first one and then the other. I bought this as a replacement (when I could have just purchased new bowl & locking cover for the old ones) thinking it was time for a change. BIG mistake.-The so-called wide feed tube must have a narrower feed tube inserted for the machine to actually turn on -- and it is very tricky to get the feed tube in place and out. So not really a wide feed in practice, when you need it.-It takes real strength: much too much, kind of like wrestling -- to get the lid off after use.-It took a few tries to understand how to turn it on at all: there is a small white plastic lock mechanism in the narrow, inner feed tube that must be pushed to the left to lock and right to open.The whole thing is very unappealing to use, in short. What used to be quick and easy is a hassle. Buy replacement bowls for your old model.
