This is the second unit I've purchased. But. Only because I placed a lit candle on the counter where I also had this appliance. It must have been too close to it because the heat from the candle melted and warped the underneath of the appliance that is attached to the cabinet in such a way that I could no longer attach the canister to the base. So I had to discard the entire unit. I got many years use from my previous unit. This is actually an excellent and convenient little food processor. I highly recommend it.
i had these spacemaker products in the 80s..loved them...i never had this one though so finding it was a little treat when looking for the coffeemaker and toaster oven
