I enjoy having multiple options and or attachments if possible, but I don’t want to sacrifice any individual functionality. Something reliable would be a pre-requisite.

I have the following two food processors:
Cuisinart Food Processor, 14-Cup
Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus Food Processor, 24-Ounce Mini Food Processor
I have owned a 14 cup Cuisinart food processor for quite some time. I bought the one linked above back in 2018 to replace an older Cusinart that was exactly the same, except it had a white base. The older one’s motor died after 25 years. The newer one is going on 7 years and it still looks and works like new. It comes with the grater and mandolin attachments, as well as the normal and dough blades.
The smaller 24oz processor is indispensable in my kitchen. It does a much better job than the large one when I have to cut a recipe in half. It’s easier to setup, use and clean. However, it is not quite as heavy duty as its larger brother. I have to replace it about every 8 years or so. It actually sees a lot more use than the larger one in my kitchen.
Does the 24 ounce work as a spice grinder?
It can, kinda. If you have a lot of spices to grind, it will work. If you just need a tablespoon or so, then it’s a bit bulky for that.
For spices I use this one: KrupsKRUPS F203 Grinder
It works for any amount.
