KitchenAid Food Processor - What size?

[Zandy595]

I'm finally going to buy myself a KitchenAid food processor, but I need help figuring out what size to buy. I know I want one that comes with a mini bowl.

What size processor do you have and what do you make with it?

I have the 5 cup. There's only 3 of us in the house and it seems to be a good size. I should use it more than I do really. It shreds cheese in a second, makes great salsa. That's about the extent of its use here.

I'm thinking either the 9-cup or the 12-cup. The 12-cup is $50 more so I'm trying to figure out if those extra 3 cups are worth it.

I think mine is an 11 cup, and it has the mini cup. When DH bought it for me, there was a mother's day promotion-3 blades and the mini cup with it. I'm glad we went with the bigger one for the versatility it provides. Ours gets used a lot grating cheese for fondue.
