OIC! When I bought my second one, it came with a mini FP... but I
gave it away as a bridal shower gift. A few years later, I bought
myself a mini and used it until I thought the blades were too dull.
Then I bought my mini-Ninja a couple of years ago and have been happy
with that ever since.

I meant, "why"? I would probably view Cuisinart like that Braun if I
ever needed factory support.

Not me. I'd never make bread or more importantly, pizza dough, if I
had to do that. I started off finishing dough by hand, but I let the
FP do it all now that I know the look and feel that I'm after.
