Hamilton Beach Food Processor & Vegetable Chopper for Slicing, Shredding, Mincing, and Puree, 10 Cups + Veggie Spiralizer makes Zoodles and Ribbons, Grey and Stainless Steel (70735)

The media could not be loaded. I’ve meal prepped for a few years now. It wasn’t until a couple of months ago that I got this, and it changed everything for me.This food processor saves me hours of prep time each week. It’s easy to use, and the included attachments are exactly what I need to make massive batch meals.Caution to new users: The slicer blade is sharp. Scary sharp. So sharp that you won’t even realize it’s fully imbedded in your finger tips until it’s too late. Do not pick up the slicer blade in ANY way that your fingers could possibly slip and make contact with the cutting surface.The chopper blade makes very short work of cubed meats and vegetables. It’s not very sharp, but I don’t really think it needs to be.The scraper is my favorite attachment. Prior to using it, I assumed it was a gimmick. It’s the real deal. That thing scrapes the sides of the bowl so you don’t have to stop the processor and do it yourself.It’s a higher capacity food processor, so you can make big batch meals with ease. If you’re on the fence about what size to get, always go a size bigger. You don’t have to fill the container all the way up if you’re making something small, but it’s really hard to split a large batch up into smaller ones.It purées and blends really well, so the flavors mix perfectly.The build quality is excellent. It’s worth the purchase.The ONLY negative I could think of is that this thing is SUPER loud.

I have a two-star review on the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth 14-Cup Food Processor (currently unavailable) from 2014—which I promised to update and never did. So, here is my update, LOL.This is what I purchased after sending back the above-mentioned product. Let me just say right off that this thing feels flimsy and cheap. Set it on the 1 or 2 auto level and you're almost afraid to walk away—just sure that it's going to violently dislodge and fire random vegetables all over the kitchen with a blade flying in the air somewhere. But, man, has it been a workhorse for 11 YEARS! I just bought a new (white) one, only because I misplaced the main chopping blade and can't find it for love or money. (Facepalm. Don't ask. I don't know, either.) I've kept my black one as a backup. I have not had the first issue in 11 years, it sticks like glue to the countertop, and it doesn't move a bit. Does a great job at slicing, grating, and processing!Unless you happen to get a dud unit, you can't go wrong with this one. It's worth every penny. For what it's worth, I typically use mine several times a month.

Good quality and value! Easy to use and clean afterwards . The blades are sharp and cuts well. Speeds are good too

I bought this hamilton beach food processor for daily use in kitchen,its a versatile product which I can use for chopping wide range of vegetables from tough one like onions,potatoes ,carrots to softer one like tomatoes overall the output wattage of this machine is good.I like the one blade do all concept ,i have used many other food processors in the past which came with different blades for chopping and different set of blades for making dough ,but it was a hassle to store all the blades ,this one feature is really good.I made paav bhaji for which i have to chop variety of vegetables and which takes a very long time doing manually,i was able to do it in under 5 mins using this machine.It very good for dough making the side scrapper is a very unique feature which reduces wastes and afterwards cleaning efforts.I tried to churn buttermilk to make butter which also turned out wellOver all do as it promised, good productOnly downside of this is when you are using the shredding blade you don't have the choice to adjust thickness of the shredding or slices

The bowl scraper is a function that is hard to find in a lower-priced food processor. I like it because it definitely helps achieve more uniformity in chopping and processing, as it directs what is pushed to the outside, back towards the blade. Liquids aren't an issue due to the vortex (tornado- like motion) formed by the blade, but solids would otherwise remain on the outer edge of the bowl.The 450-Watt motor seems to provide plenty of power for most uses. More expensive processors may have a larger motor and that may lead to a longer life for those units. A processor at this one's price range can't be expected to last ten years if used often, but for non-prifessionals it should be fine.The versatility of chopping, slicing, shredding and pureeing is a plus. An ordinary blender just can't compete. I also like that it has two speeds and a pulse capability.After a bit of searching, I settled on this processor for the combination of affordability, function, good reviews, name brand, and the bowl scraper.
