- Complaints about the Black & Decker FP1550 range from poor design to noise. Experts note that the best food processors are on the heavy side, which makes them stable. The Black & Decker FP1550 is a lightweight in this respect.
Most owners say you should pass on the Black & Decker FP1550 food processor, which weighs just ten pounds. The experts at Cook's Illustrated say there's a strong correlation between food processor weight and performance; most top-performing food processors can weigh as much as 25 pounds. According to that criterion, the Black & Decker FP1550 is too light, which affects stability. Many owners posting to Amazon.com and Epinions say that their FP1550 food processors broke after a few months.
