I had a Cuisinart 11 cup from the mid-1980s until three years ago when I gave it to a neighbor who desperately needed one.

 

I also "had" a 14 cup Cuisinart that I bought in 1998 as a backup for my 20 cup and it was still working nicely until a month ago when it suffered a fatal accident.

I had used it, rinsed the parts and put them in the dishwasher, grabbed a dishtowel from the counter, which was unfortunately hiding the cord and I yanked it off the counter and it did not survived the impact with the floor. 

In fact, I just listed all the perfectly fine parts, all Made in Japan, not China! on ebay yesterday.

 

There are several on ebay, for very reasonable prices.  This is a workhorse of the line - as long as you get the "vintage" ones made before 2002.

I highly recommend it.   Look for a listing:  DLC-7 Cuisinart  or DLC  SERIES 7 CUISINART.  14 cup.  

 

Mine has an extra lid - the flat lid used for dough, or anything that did not need feeding, although it does have center access for adding liquids or whatever to doughs, I used it a lot for making crumb pie crusts. 

 

I still have my big 20 cup and will be more careful with it, but it is much too heavy to move the way it's little brother did.  

 

Here's one with a lot of extras:  eBay item number:152949213228

And one with some extras: eBay item number:253762141945

 

Here's the lineup of my three machines around 2005.
