The Magimix 4200XL ranks second because its three nesting bowls cover more batch sizes than any other single processor here, at a lower price than the Paradice 16. NutriMill, which fulfills all magimix.us orders, lists a 950W motor, a 14 cup main bowl, a 12 cup midi bowl and a 6 cup mini bowl. Its comparison table puts bread dough at 2.2 lbs, pastry dough at 2.6 lbs, chopped meat at 2.2 lbs and egg whites at 6 per batch. Magimix says its food processors have been made in Burgundy, France, since 1971. The black and white versions cost $399.00 and chrome is $449.00. Specialty discs such as julienne and Parmesan cost $29.95 each, but dicing needs the $109.00 Dicing & French Fry Attachment, which the Breville Paradice models include. The larger 5200XL adds a 16 cup bowl and 1100W for $549.00. We compared documented features and published prices and did not run food processing tests.
