Food Processor, Baby Bullet

I am trying to stay ahead of things, well as much as I can with a 5month old in the house!  I know the time is coming to start thinking about pureed food for my baby girl!  I have a food processor already, but was thinking of getting something smaller to make baby food.  I am in some mommy groups on facebook and decided to ask for some opinions.  What I got back, didn't fully surprise me.  There were a couple of woman who loved the Baby Bullets!  Most of the woman who did have them, said they burnt out the motors or something cause it not to work after only a short time.  Now, some of the things could very well have been operator error, but for $60...I'm not willing to take the chance!  I'm wanting to make my own baby food because it will be healthier for her, but also save us some money! I already have a good food processor that works great, so I'm not going to waste our money on the Baby Bullet.  We also have one of those Ninja choppers, that also purees so that would work well for me too!  We are planning on having two more kids so as far as I am concern, the Ninja copper and the food processor will work just fine to make baby food!  I think food processors are great investments, especially for those that have or plan to have babies and want to make their own food, which I recommend you do that if you are able too!  It really doesn't take much time to make food!  I don't use my food processor every day, but I use it often enough to want/ need to have it!  I would love to invest in a better stand mixer.  I have a Hamilton beach stand mixer.  It works alright for light mixing.  By that, it's great for most cakes, but not great for making bread!  I enjoy making homemade bread and will admit I don't get to do it, as often as I would like too!  Once I get to a certain point, when the dough is really starting to form, I have to stop using the mixer and finish by hand!  The motor in my HB stand mixer, just can't handle it!  We did get it at Walmart for $25, so you do get what you pay for!  When our finances aren't so tight, I plan on investing in a Kitchen Aid stand mixer!  I've been wanting one for years! Anyhow, keeping in mind with food processors, do your research and read consumer reviews before you buy.  I recommend doing that with almost anything!
