I have had my kenwood FP580 for a couple of months now and I love it. I only have a small kitchen and it sits in a very small corner - which means it is accessible at all times. It comes with many accessories including a dough tool, 3 cutting discs, whisk and blender. The 3 cutting discs store away safely in a disc holder. The main base has inerchangeable bowls and the blender. These are very easy to swap, although initially are quite stiff to remove but this soon loosens up. The 2 sizes of 'feeding' tubes in the lid of the main bowl, enables you to feed individual or handfuls of fruit/veg into the the processor to be ccot by one of the chosen blades. This is very safe, quick anf efficient. The instruction manual is just an A4 paper sheet but does list all the contents. The only downside I felt was that it lists all available discs, some of which are not available in the UK and which sound ideal - like the fine chipping blade but I'm sure these may be available to buy seperately but I have not yet investigated this. The machine also comes with a very useful recipe book, which gives examples of how to use each of the accessories and some very easty recipes. I tried the bread - it was the first time I had made bread and it was so easy and very very tasty! I often bake cakes and the main bowl easily holds enough mixture for an 8oz cake. I have also used the blender for many things including soups and smoothies - it blends solid foods quickly and effectively. I would not be without my Kenwood Food processor, it certainly makes my life easier, from making cakes, soups, to cutting veg and making bread. It has all the accessries and more, and unlike some of the other models , the upright design with interchangeable bowl/blender enables easy storage and is perfect for those with limited space in their kitchen.
