Hamilton Beach ChefPrep 70610

Pros
  • Value
  • 10-cup capacity
  • Two speeds plus pulse
  • Better ratings than other budget machines
Cons
  • No dough blade
  • Inconsistent shredding

The 10-cup Hamilton Beach ChefPrep 70610 is one budget-priced food processor that gets good reviews. Editors at ConsumerGuide.com say it has an excellent capacity for shredding and mixing dough, but yielded better chopping results with smaller quantities. They also praise the dual safety features, which require the lid and base to be locked in place to activate the blades. Owner reviews are mostly positive; however, one owner says mixtures were lumpy after pureeing and several say shredded cheese came out unevenly processed. This Hamilton Beach has two speed settings and a pulse control. It comes with a multi-use blade plus a slicing/shredding disc. The Hamilton Beach Big Mouth 14 Cup 70570 (*Est. $70) is the top-rated under-$100 food processor; it chops, slices, shreds, purees and grates just as well as pricier processors in one expert test. If you want a food processor that also comes with a dough blade, reviewers recommend the Cuisinart Prep 11 Plus DLC-2011CHB (*Est. $200) .
