70510 4 Cup Stack & Snap Compact Food Processor, Black

Hamilton Beach makes outstanding products. My 1st food processor lasted 18yrs. Now this new one is great! Perfect for just me. Works fantastic. Size is perfect for my small kitchen.

This is such a great little mixer at such a great price! It’s perfect for leaving on my counter for everyday mixing and chopping/slicing or shredding. I love how it came with different attachments and I can slice, chop, and shred all with this. It mixes perfectly too. I have a big heavy food processor, but it’s so big and bulky I don’t always feel like hauling it out. This is so nice and compact, it’s super easy to use. And the lid snaps on nice and tight. It’s not like my older food processor that had to slide and lock, and at times would jolt apart while I was using it and scare the heck out of me. This one is completely safe and secure. It even has little suction cup feet on the bottom so you can’t slide it on the counter. It’s VERY safe feeling. The snap lid has to be in place for it to work, it’s a great safety feature. It’s really easy to clean up too. I hand wash the blades; I find the dishwasher too caustic on blades and wears them out much quicker. But otherwise I would put everything else in the dishwasher. It’s not designed to crush ice or spices. And it’s recommended to freeze cheese like mozza for 30 min prior to shredding. It does make great smoothies though! This has been a great purchase and I would definitely buy it again. Highly recommend.

Excelente producto realiza sin tema alguno el proceso de corte

I have a full sized food processor but almost never use it because it is such a hassle to drag out and clean all the parts afterwards. This little mini is perfect for cooking for two. I can just leave it on the counter and it is quick to clean up. It has all the functionality that I need (grating, slicing and chopping) and does a wonderful job.

First of all, I received a damaged item (the clip on the lid was broken), so I requested for a replacement. There was more inconvenience coming along with the replacement item (missing part, scratches on the bowl, tiny crack on the plastic of the blade part, a button that's a bit stubborn), but Amazon customer service was very helpful and attentive in solving my problem, and I very much appreciated their empathetic responds and satisfying solutions. Now about this product, I think the size is perfect for me. It's small, but not too small like the 1.5 cup mini food processors in the market, also not too big to take up much kitchen space. I only cook for myself and my husband, so I don't need big serving capacity, and I think 4 cup is the way to go. I like the shape of the blade that allows it to chop and blend more evenly. The first time I used it, I tried to chop bell peppers. Unfortunately I overdid it and turned it into purée. The motor is quite powerful for the size, and you really don't need to hit the chop button too many times if all you want to do is chopping, otherwise you'll have purée instead. The shredder/slicer works well too. You just have to insert a smaller amount and size of food at a time. The lid has a rubber seal that prevents leakage, which is a good thing. But it also makes opening the lid requires a little bit of force (because the rubber is really tight). This product boasts its stack and snap system that's advertised to be more convenient than twist and lock in most food processors and blenders, which I think is true. The bottom part of the cup is not attached or locked into anything when you run the machine. There's a plastic piece in the cup handle that sticks into the motor body when you close the lid (a piece of plastic on the lid pushes down this piece of plastic in the cup handle), that triggers the safety mechanism so that the motor will run, but that's all. So you can just lift up the cup and the motor will stop working. That's convenient while still being safe. All of the parts are easy to clean, and dishwasher safe (I wash them manually in hot water and soap). I think this product is perfect if you can't afford to have a bigger food processor due to lack of space, or just don't need a big one. The only concern here in my opinion is durability. The clips on the lid feel a bit flimsy, and it seems like if you don't handle them gently they'll break quite easily because of the shape of the clips. And the bigger concern is with the safety mechanism. Basically if the little piece of plastic on the lid or on the cup handle broke, the motor would not turn on. And judging from the size, shape and position, it could happen quite easily if you don't handle it with care. Bottom line, this seems like a good product and mine works well so far. My advice is to handle this food processor gently. Hopefully it will last reasonably long. Good luck. :)
