With my device, it's the plastic workbowl that's the problem, not the blades or the machine. Cuisinart no longer controls the manufacture of the workbowl, so it's now made of substandard plastic, and does not fit with existing parts (lid, chute, etc). I posted in this thread because @Shel_B's blade had broken.

@TdeV, are you referring to the quality of replacement bowls or all bowls, including the ones that come with new machines?

 

While I'm toying with the idea of getting a new machine, every time I use my current machine (20+ years old?) I take great pleasure in the quality feel that it has. I'd hate to lose that.

 

A minor correction to your comment: my blade hasn't broken but it seems to have dulled over time.
