Kitchenaid KFP1319CU
Best Large family electric chopper xl 12-14 cups – High-End – 160 $ to 300 $
Choose the KitchenAid KFP1319CU if you prepare large batches and want fast, even slicing and dicing without keeping every accessory loose in a drawer. Buyer reports praise its power, quiet operation, adjustable slicing and useful dicing kit. Tests from TechRadar, Tom's Guide and Taste of Home also found strong cutting performance and thoughtful storage. Its tall body suits a roomy counter more than a low cabinet.
Our high-end choice for batch preparation
The KitchenAid KFP1319CU earns the high-end spot for cooks who want one large processor to handle repeated slicing, grating, chopping and dicing. Buyers describe it as powerful, quiet and quick, with the dicing kit producing even pieces and the adjustable slicer giving useful control over thickness. TechRadar found it effective and fast for meat and diced vegetables, while Taste of Home rated its slices, dice and chopping among the most uniform in its comparison. Tom's Guide also praised the adjustable cutting disc, stable base and easy cleaning. The design is especially practical when many attachments are in regular use: buyers and TechRadar both highlight the storage system inside the main bowl. The meaningful reservation comes from a minority of buyers who report broken plastic latches, lid hinges or bowls; one buyer says a broken lid latch made the machine unusable even after a replacement lid failed in the same way.
Who it’s for For cooks preparing vegetables, salads, sauces or other large batches who value fast, consistent cutting and want the attachments stored together. It is a better fit for a spacious counter than for a low cabinet.
What sets it apart
- Fast, even slicing and dicing for everyday batch preparation
- Adjustable slicing thickness and a useful dicing kit
- Powerful operation that buyers describe as relatively quiet
- Internal storage that keeps the attachments together
- Strong cutting results in tests from TechRadar and Taste of Home
What to know
- Some buyers report fragile plastic latches, hinges or bowls; a broken lid latch can stop the processor from operating
- Its tall body can be awkward under low cabinets
- Tom's Guide found that very large or very small mixtures may need frequent scraping
- TechRadar found the fixed handle less convenient for left-handed users
What it does best
The KFP1319CU is built around high-volume preparation rather than a single task. Buyers say it slices cucumbers in seconds, handles hard vegetables, and makes large batches of diced vegetables quickly. One buyer highlights six slicing thicknesses; another says the dicing kit made weekly vegetable preparation much easier. Those reports match the published tests: TechRadar found fast chopping and dicing, and Taste of Home reported highly uniform slices, dice and chopping. Tom's Guide also found the machine stable and relatively quiet during general use.
Storage is a genuine part of the appeal. Buyers describe a caddy with a place for each attachment, while TechRadar says almost all of the accessories fit inside the main bowl. That matters for a processor with several cutting tools: the set is easier to keep together instead of spreading across a drawer. The trade-off is height. Buyers and Taste of Home both flag the tall design, so the processor may need to be taken apart or left on an open counter.
Where the design needs patience
The cutting results are not the same as effortless preparation in every recipe. Tom's Guide found that very large or very small quantities could spread over the bowl walls, requiring scraping, and it noted minor inconsistencies with narrow vegetables in the feed tube. Buyers also disagree about ease of assembly and cleaning. One buyer says onions can lodge in the dicing blade and be difficult to remove. The supplied parts are dishwasher-safe, but that does not remove the need to clear trapped food by hand.

Frequently asked questions
Is the KitchenAid KFP1319CU suited to large batches?
Yes, it is aimed at cooks who want a large-capacity processor for repeated slicing, chopping and dicing. The tests still found that some very large mixtures need scraping, so capacity does not mean every preparation runs unattended.
Does it make uniform dice and slices?
The buyer reports praise the dicing kit and adjustable slicer. Taste of Home also found the slices, dice and chopping highly uniform, while TechRadar reported effective dicing of vegetables.
What is the main drawback?
The most important reservation is durability. A minority of buyers report broken latches, hinges or bowls, and one buyer says a broken lid latch made the processor unusable.
Who should choose another model?
Choose another option if the processor must fit under a low cabinet, if you often process very small or very large mixtures without scraping, or if a fragile lid mechanism would be a deal-breaker.
