AvaMix Revolution BFP34SS 3 Qt. Stainless Steel Batch Bowl Food Processor - 1 hp

Bought this four months prior opening my restaurant. Looks and feels sturdy and strong. But when we used this for the first time, I was going to make sauce, threw few of chopped onion, it was fine then I threw some garlics bulbs..... it’s jammed. I had to take everything out and undo. Then I cut those garlic bulb into four pieces, it works for few second until I threw in few more cut garlic..... jammed again. Very annoying. Later I made salsa, it was jammed again.

Like others before me, I too must give this item a 2 star review. It really should be a 1 star but since most potential buyers ignore the 1 star reviews I'll stick with 2. We had purchased the food processor before opening our cafe and once we had the kitchen set up for recipe testing we were ready to try the new equipment. From first assembly, there is already an issue. The S blade wont insert fully down the mount and no matter how we twist and turn, it won't slide to reach the bottom of the bowl. Unfortunately since it was bought awhile back even though it's never been used we cannot return it. Such a waste, we could have bought a cheaper piece of decoration.

This seemed like a reasonable substitute for the more expensive Robot Coupe options. It fits plenty of ingredients and is powerful, but the S blade constantly gets jammed and unwilling to attach or be unattached. So much so that my staff won’t use it when needed. When it works it’s a 5 star item. Unfortunately no one will touch it in order to save the intolerable wrestling maneuvers needed to prep items.
