Blenders, Food Processors and Vacuums

saturninus

Before my Registry becomes "official" I want to check and see what blenders, food processors and vacuums you registered for.  What did you end up chosing?  Any tips?  Thanks ladies!

I've had the Magic Bullet blender for years now, and I like it.  When we consolidated our stuff, we kept mine and got rid of DH's standard blender.  I love being able to make an individual smoothie or use one of the smaller sizes to chop veggies or make a sauce.  I also have an immersion blender for soups.

We registered for the KitchenAid KFP750 Food Processor, 12 Cup, and we like it a lot so far.  We picked it because it was highly rated by Cooks Illustrated.  

No vacuum, although we've been thinking about getting one.

Love our dyson!
We've had it for 4 years and still works great!

We registered for a Cuisinart 11-cup food processor and a Kitchenaid 5-speed blender.  We did not register for a vacuum, the Dysons are really expensive, and there are definitely other things on the registry before we need a vacuum.

@amymaysa Which Dyson did you regsiter for?  We have hardwood floors and can't decide.

I didn't register for any of those things, but I got a Cuisinart food processor for Christmas and love it.  It's 11-cup, I'm not sure which model.  It runs about $150 or so.  It's easy to use, store and wash. 

I also have a Shark vacuum that's been great with pets.  It was about $200 and came with a free iron that has also rocked.  It has a detachable canister that you can use on the stairs or as more of a Dirt Devil type device.

We have a KitchenAid food processor and I love it.  I got the small size and I really wish that I had gotten the bigger one.  I would use it a lot more.

I have a KitchenAid blender and it's awesome.   

The Dyson Ball is amazing (I have the "animal" and it's fantastic).

I've never owned a food processor, but we registered for the Cuisinart.

We registered for a KA Architect Food Processor. We have a decent blender, so we didn't register for one. IMO, the Dyson vacuums aren't worth the money. We have some carpet, but mostly hardwoods. I found the canister way small and the cord is short. I truly didn't notice that big of a difference in my floors.
