Review on 🔪 Vitamix SELF-DETECT™ 12-Cup Food Processor Attachment by Bobby Aghetoni

I saw this on the Vitamix website and thought what a great idea, I don't have it and I love my Vitamix what a great combo. Well let's start at the beginning, I like the fact that I saved a bit on price compared to the Vitamix, came pretty quickly, no complaints. So the package arrived on October 8th and when I opened it from Revain, the first thing I saw was that it wasn't in the original box. Revane took it out of the vitamin mix packaging and put it in the usual big box on Amazon. I called Amazon and asked if it had been refurbished and they assured me it was brand new. I read the crumpled manual that was thrown in the box and got an idea of how to use it, now I remember I hadn't had a food processor before and never used it with which said I assembled it it was simple, it was ok. I decided to start light and small so I tried a thin slice of Persian cucumber to see how easy it was and the slices were so thin so good. I then tried a thick slicing disc and sliced the mushrooms, it was ok but I had a lot of crumbs along with the sauces and the crumbs got stuck in the ridges and grooves of the blade, at that point I stopped and the whole thing Machine cleaned and called. during the day. Day 2. I was excited to use the pizza dough machine, got the machine out again and hooked it up to the blade to make the dough, so the cookbook was very unhelpful in terms of the recipe making process. was average with the ingredients, direction just given, process 10 seconds, then process 30 seconds, since i wasn't sure what that meant i tried using it in the activation setting and wow it was so wrong that The blender's base started moving so I quickly turned it off then tried pulsing it and also started moving the base again and at this point all the ingredients got stuck in the middle of the blade and started , to form a sticky dough. I add more flour and butter to come together I stopped cycling and only used D-Pulse on the machine, still got the machine working. I was so nervous that the processor would blow off and my Vitamix base would fall off. I stopped and half poured Assembled dough and finished kneading the ball by hand. I had a lot of parts to wash and it didn't even turn out a good batter. I called Vitamix for advice and the first lady wasn't very familiar with the product, hung up, called again, the second lady wasn't familiar with the product either but was willing to help was the reason the base moved but really no idea why the processor was so unstable. With the fact that she said the base would move because of the counters I didn't feel safe for me to keep her. I don't think the processor is worth the price of only working on certain countertops that weren't even mentioned in the description. I know I might not have used it properly, but it shouldn't be that hard and the instructions should be written better. The unit had no problem locating the base. Very sad but I'm back. 🤨
