All accessories included with the Breville Sous Chef are housed in a convenient plastic container. It can be stored flat or on its side to take up less counter space.

 WHY THE BREVILLE SOUS CHEF FOOD PROCESSOR?
Every Breville product begins with a simple moment of brilliance. The Breville Sous Chef began with the observation that the food comes in many different shapes and sizes, making it difficult for one machine to consistently cut all ingredients into the optimal size pieces. So how do you make sure that you get the perfect size for what you’re cooking?

The Breville Sous Chef solves this problem with its unique design. Its wide feed chute makes it possible to slice vegetables of all shapes and sizes, while numerous disc and blade options makes it easy to get perfect results, any way you slice it.

COMBINING CONVENIENCE AND VERSATILITY: THE GREATEST SLICED THING SINCE BREAD.
Food processors are supposed to make food prep easier, not more frustrating. The Breville Sous Chef has a 5.5” Super Wide Feed Chute that reduces the need to pre-cut most fruits & veggies, saving you time.

The Breville Sous Chef comes with a set of 8 discs and blades for numerous prep options, all housed in a convenient accessory storage. The discs include a variable slicing disc that can be set to 24 different slicing settings so you can customize the thickness of your slices from a paper thin 0.3mm all the way up to a thick 8.0mm. Other discs in the set include a julienne disc, a French fry cutting disc, a whisking disc, and a reversible shredding disc, while the blades include a micro-serrated universal S blade, a dough blade for kneading and combining ingredients, and a mini blade for use with mini-bowl. 

The Breville Sous Chef includes two bowls, a large 16 cup processing bowl and a 2.5 cup mini processing bowl, for convenient processing no matter what size portions you’re chopping. The 16-cup option allows you to blend up large servings of soup or dough, while the mini processing bowl is perfect for processing small amounts of sauces or nuts.

Combining slicing options and two size choices with the convenience of the wide mouth chute, it is no wonder that the Breville Sous Chef was rated the best food processor in 2012 by a leading American reviewer of products.

PRODUCT FEATURES


 1.  Small Food Pusher: for improved processing control of smaller ingredients. It also doubles as a measuring cup for adding/measuring ingredients. The food processor will run continually whether the small pusher is in or out
 2.  Large Food Pusher for pushing food down the feed chute. The food processor will not start unless the large pusher is in place correctly.
 3.  Feed Chute Safety System: prevents the motor from operating unless the bowl, lid and large food pusher are correctly locked in position.
 4.  Super Wide Feed Chute so large ingredients don’t have to be chopped before being fed into the food processor
 5.  Silicone Seal: reduces the chance of leakage while processing large volumes of liquid ingredients.
 6.  Processing Bowl: 16 cup bowl for dry ingredients and 12 cups for liquid (wet ingredients). The processing bowl locks onto the motor base.
 7.  LCD Display with Count-Up & Count-Down Timer: used to set desired time required for processing. Can count up or down, stopping the processor once the time is reached in count down mode.
 8.  Solid Die-Cast Metal Base
 9.  Direct Drive Motor: with safety braking system.
 10. Non-Skid Rubber Feet: for added safety and stability.
 11. All parts that come in contact with food are BPA free.

Wirecutter

We recommend this large, 16-cup processor only if you’re cooking for a crowd multiple times a week. The Sous Chef is more than twice the price of the Cuisinart Custom 14, and it’s more powerful (and much bigger) than most people need.

TechGearLab

Fending off challengers for close to three years and once again earning our top overall score by a landslide, the Breville Sous Chef 16 Pro is easily our favorite food processor. This top-of-the-line kitchen appliance performed well across all of our tests, effortlessly slicing through produce and completing even the most challenging processing tasks. Its 1200-watt motor mixes dough, slices veggies, and shreds potatoes effortlessly. Out of our entire test fleet, this processor is also one of the most convenient models to use and one of the easiest to clean. 
Perhaps unsurprisingly, such high performance also comes with one of our lineup's highest price tags. The Sous Chef 16 Pro is a phenomenal machine, and we highly recommend it for enthusiast chefs, but it can set you back quite a bit of money and take up a decent amount of valuable counter space. It's a fantastic option for an avid home chef or anyone who will use it frequently, but it can be a bit more machine than the casual cook may need or want. However, if you are searching for the crème de la crème when it comes to choppers, this is our top choice.

Cuisinart vs Breville - Cuisinart wins

 The parts have "dirt catching" shapes for which you need some kind of long brush to really clean well. Rather than cap stems, they are hollow and open. And if you like to "clean as you go," please pay special attention to number three; Third, as others have reported, DO NOT try to take the blade out after running the machine. IT GETS SUPER HOT!!! "The burned hand teaches best," they say

Great for a short time

 It is HUGE. A great advantage is that it EASILY handles grating cheese for a large 8-serving dish of mac and cheese, processing double pie crusts, ricing a whole head of cauliflower. One serious design flaw -- and this is my main source of regret -- is the mini-chopper within the large processor. This versatility was my reason for choosing this model but the way the processor is made, it is not very functional

 If I could do-over, I would buy one size down in a large processor and keep my old smaller mini-chopper on the counter for daily jobs (as much as I hate multiple appliances).

 Food meant to stay inside the smaller bowl goes all over the inside of the lid and spills into the outer larger bowl. Add to that the need to handwash all of these pieces because BPA-free plastic is not dishwasher safe, and that is a lot of excess cleaning. Too many dirty dishes & too much fuss for one small chopping job. Pay attention to reviewers who warn of delicate BPA-free plastic -- I have been extremely careful with mine (always handwashing, only rinsing without soap when I can, storing safely away when not using) but I dropped it once and the inside of the handle is now cracked and rattles

Works well, but some buyer's remorse

  The gadget box that comes with it is very nice but be warned that it's enormous. I have enough room at the back of the counter under cabinets for the machine itself (and I keep the steel blade in there as its normal configuration, because that's still mostly what it's used for) but the big accessory box is just too big; it's claimed a big chunk of an overhead cabinet. That's OK for me but again it's a thing.  Oh, one other significant design difference from other food processors I've had

I have not conducted a systematic breakdown of the reasons I think this is the best food processor I've ever had, but it is. The vast majority of my food processor use has always been the main sharp steel blade for chopping vegetables and making pastry dough. This one is better at that than any of the Cuisinarts (2, back to the ancient CFP-5 in the 70s) and KitchenAids (also 2) I've had. On top of that, the slicing ability of the Breville is absolutely vastly superior to any other food processor I've had, in particular the adjustable slicing disk

Mostly wonderful piece of equipment, but not entirely (mini bowl design is critically flawed)

 I understand that this part is durable because it is metal, and I am all for durability, but seriously, this is horrible engineering. On the top of the lid, there's also a metal part that makes contact with that spindle, and it gets very hot as well. Both have burned my hand.  My second complaint is the whine the machine makes sometimes

Will Burn Your Hand!

 If you need high capacity, if you want chopping and slicing that is second to none, the Breville is the way to go. That said, Breville as a brand isn't as reliable as it should be. It's not just the flakyness after four years, in the second month I had it, I dropped the lid, which didn't just break, it shattered. Like many other people report, Breville did not handle spare parts availability well

Consumer Reports Likes It

 So after mathing on it real hard I decided the Breville BFP800 was a better value.  Then it arrived.  And it was BIG. HUGE

Folks say the BFP800 is big. Well it is, in an 800 lbs gorilla kind of way. It has a way of making small-ish kitchen counters look like something Barbie would own.  So let me cut to the chase, after reading uncountable reviews I decided to splurge and buy the "best" and I wish I had not

They said it was big, but I didn't know it would be BIG big....

 The speed and consistency is unbelievable. With the 5.5" wide feeder, I was able to put 3 (medium) potatoes in at once and they were all sliced, perfectly, gorgeously, in the blink of an eye. Very impressive

Loving my newest addition!
