Compact 4-Cup Food Processor

The Cuisinart Elemental ECH-4SV is a 4-cup chopper and grinder built for small-batch prep in home kitchens. Its 120-volt motor drives a patented auto-reversing SmartPower blade that switches between a sharp edge for soft foods and a blunt edge for hard spices. Touchpad controls offer simple chop or grind selections.

Replaces Knife Work and Larger Bowls

This unit upgrades from manual chopping or a full-size food processor when counter space is limited and volumes stay modest. The jump is worth it for cooks who regularly need uniform mince, nut butters or purees without hauling out a heavy machine. It is not suited for batch cooking, dough kneading or slicing tasks.

Simple Setup With BladeLock Safety

Place the bowl on the base, engage the exclusive BladeLock system to secure the blade, then lock the lid before pressing a touchpad. All removable parts are dishwasher safe for quick cleanup. The blade must be fully seated or the interlock prevents operation; forcing ingredients past the max-fill line can stall the motor.

Questions about this item

How much counter space do the 9.29-inch height, 7.2-inch width and 5.6-inch depth require?

The unit measures 9.29 inches high by 7.2 inches wide by 5.6 inches deep, so allow at least that footprint plus a little clearance for the lid and power cord.

Which step of the Bladelock System assembly is most often missed?

After placing the auto-reversing SmartPower blade on the shaft, you must rotate it until the BladeLock clicks into the locked position; the touchpad will not activate until the lock engages.

When should the stainless-steel SmartPower blade be replaced?

Replace the blade when the sharp edge no longer chops cleanly or the blunt edge struggles to grind spices, as dull blades strain the motor and produce uneven results.
