Hamilton BeachFood Processor & Vegetable Chopper for Slicing, Shredding, Mincing, and Puree, 10 Cups + Easy Clean Bowl Scraper, Black and Stainless Steel (70730)

We purchased this to replace a different brand that just wasn’t up to par. This food processor is everything!! We generally use it to make our own ground beef and sometimes mince veggies and it has not disappointed. The size is exactly what we needed for us. Easy to use and the motor takes a while before it starts to heat up. The blades are sharp and do the job great! Size is perfect for what we need it for. We had other brands but their motors were terrible sometimes we couldn’t even ground up one small pack of meat. We were pleasantly surprised when this food processor did so well. 10/10 would recommend over and over again!!

The Hamilton Beach 10-Cup Food Processor with Bowl Scraper is a game changer for everyday prep. The built-in scraper saves time by keeping ingredients moving without stopping to scrape manually.

I have been using this blender for almost 6 months and everything is good! Everything is working, blades are sharp, I can easily set up and use it, also it easily to clean. I recommend it

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

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great item! I use it all the time. We have started trying to eat healthier. This item saves me so much time in the kitchen chopping fresh vegetables and herbs. It breaks apart easily and is so easy to clean. Highly recommend.

This unit is replacing a 10(ish)-year old Hamilton Beach food processor that I had a love/hate relationship with. Finally, enough parts wore out on it that I could justify buying a new one (even though, realistically, it was still working). I wasn't stuck on the Hamilton Beach name, but this happened to fit my needs and my wallet.I can't say the unit feels particularly high quality. In fact, when I first took it out of the box, my initial thoughts were that they somehow forgot to put a motor in it. The base of my old one weighed like 5 lbs and this entire setup is a fraction of that. That is likely the reason the quality feels lacking. The switch in particular feels only ok, but for $50, I don't really have room to complain.Strangely enough, I rarely use it for food. Instead, we use it to grind up soft dog treats into powder to sprinkle over dry dog food to make it more enticing. Enticing, to the dogs, not to us. It tackles this chore with ease. I've used it for making hummus and slicing up onions, and it handled both of those jobs like a true champ.The stated capacity is 10 cups, but as is the case with almost all food processors, that is only for dry goods. The liquid capacity is 2 cups, if you go by the line marked on the bowl. I filled the bowl up with water until it was spilling out of the hole in the middle, and it held 6 cups. So figure it'll easily do 4 liquid cups without spilling down the center shaft, since liquids are thrown outward when the blades are spinning. However, the top is not hermetically sealed to the bowl, so some liquids might dribble out down the sides on high speed if you push past the rated liquid capacity.Honestly, I don't know how so much power and speed comes from such a lightweight device. The motor noise is not horrendous, but I've only had one other food processor to compare it to. It is probably a little quieter than the old one, which is not to say that it is silent. The noise is more of a high speed whirring sound than the throaty growl of the one I retired. It's almost a hollow sound, which again, does not instill a lot of confidence in the quality. Perhaps I'm just partial to heavy tools. Performance-wise, I can't think of anything negative to say. The base even has suction cup feet on the bottom to keep it from jumping around the counter.The food scraper is a gimmick, right? I had already made up my mind to never use such an obviously far-reaching add-on before ever taking it out of the box. Then I tried it once. Honestly, I don't think it has been separated since. It doesn't scrape down below the height of the blades, but it does clean all that loose stuff off the sides fairly well. The scraper is just made of plastic, but it is well-designed and effective. I now have to wonder why this feature took so long to evolve. :)UPDATE: Over 2 years later and still going strong. We don't chop as many dog treats with it as we used to. The dogs are old and we have resorted to giving them grilled chicken breast, which we can only chop in small batches or it goes bad. So we use a small chopper. But I have absolutely no complaints about the performance or effectiveness of this product to date.UPDATE: Over 10 years later and still alive. Who even updates a review after 10 years? The food scraper broke a few years back, so that's long gone. The pusher thing has a crack in it, but I'm sure the culprit was one too many drops on the tile floor and not a design flaw. The rest of it is intact and still runs great. It's crazy that I doubted the quality of this appliance, and it ended up outlasting the original.

This is a great food processor. So easy to assemble and very good speed. Love the size too

This is a great blender, especially for the price. Very easy to use, powerful and gets the job done
