The Cuisinart food processor is great for making large quantities of food for large groups and entertaining. We appreciate the professional quality of this processor.

The Cuisinart is easy to clean with its detachable parts that are dishwasher safe.

Large capacity
This food processor and vegetable chopper is good for anyone looking for an easy way to make delicious dishes without the mess. The Hamilton Beach Food Processor & Vegetable Chopper is very easy to use. We like how it’s versatile, and can be used simply as a vegetable chopper, too. Since prep work is often the most time-consuming part of cooking, that’s a big plus. The reversible stainless-steel blades can chop, mix, and puree. You won’t have to worry about making multiple batches of your favorite dip, dressing, or vegetable mix, as this processor has a generous 10-cup capacity.

This processor is also very easy to set up, take apart, and clean.

Small but efficient
Don’t be deceived by the smaller size of this 3.5 cup mini food processor – it is still powerful and great for everyday use. If you’re pressed for time and space, the KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper is the appliance you need. It has two speeds to give you precise control over the texture you desire.
