Hamilton Beach 10-Cup Food Processor & Vegetable Chopper with Compact Storage (70760), Silver

Hmmm... I bought this is August and didn't really use it until today. I actually did use it once for mixing some flours together and it was fine. I also tried grating some cheese, and it was just okay.Anyway, today was my first time using it for its real purpose, and I was so disappointed... I was trying to make a paste using cashews, cream, and water. First of all, even though I was holding the lid, milk managed to spill out of it while it was running, which was alarming. Secondly, once I poured most of the cream out, I was disappointed to see most of the cashews were at the bottom in small chunks, not blended into the mixture. I tried everything to fix it, but the reality is that the blades don't come far enough down to grind things on the bottom. In that case, what is the point of this machine? I'm so sad I missed the opportunity to return this item, I should have bought a higher quality one with lower blades.

There is no learning curve on this guy; I literally took it out of the box in the middle of cooking a recipe and figured out how to unpack it assemble it, and use it (I have never used a food processor before) in minutes. Now I understand why everyone is so over-the-moon in love with their food processors. I didn't think I wanted one taking up kitchen space, but now I'm like, "Did you really reduce those nuts and herbs to a fine pesto in three seconds?!" It is SO easy to use and to clean. I made sure to buy the "compact storage" version, which just means the lid flips over and rests on top of the bowl to reduce the height needed to store it. (I thought the cord was retractable too, but it's not. No big deal.)

I bought this processor over 4 years ago and it is still going strong. It is very easy to clean - not a lot of small places for food to lodge, in contrast to my last one.. I like the compactness of it. Only complaint is that it is very noisy.

It really works well for everything we've used it for: cheese, pepperoni, salads, cucumbers, etc. Forget all the picky complaints in the reviews. When have you NOT had a small piece of food leftover at the end? As long as you treat this unit with respect, and don't try to run a restaurant with it, you should be fine. I might get a larger more heavy duty unit for a restaurant or large family. But for the two of us, this is perfect.

It has cord storage and with the top part on upside down it stores neatly in minimal space. It works very well and most importantly, it cleans very easily! Because of those things I use this for tasks I used to stick with knife and cutting board for to avoid the mess. This is my favorite food processor ever!

Great processor, I've used it to make hummus and veggie burgers so far, have got lots of plans for it.Love how the lid allows for streamlined storage, it's easy to clean and simple to use.I've read the other reviews and noted that on occasion it does smell hot so I shall use it with respect and not over work it in case the motor burns out.

This little guy is amazing! We ordered it just in time for the holidays. We were using a ninja and it just would take forever and could only put in a little at a time to make sure everything got chopped up. This one I was able to whip up stuffing for Thanksgiving in minutes compare to a hour! I make a ton of chip dips and with this it was a breeze. I have no need to stand for hours chopping up everything, I just put it all in the processor and in 35 sec I'm done! I was hesitant on ordering this one compare to some of the other models, but so glad I did. This is one of the best buys I made.

This size the 10 cup is just the right size for making dips, smooth sauces and so much more. For me, I found that the motor is extra strong and mixes the ingredients very well. Since I have owned other food processors before this one, I find this one the best one I have owned. One more thing, the motor is quiet yet heavy duty.PROS:+ Crushing up NUTS - I love to crush up Cashew nuts, walnuts, and almonds and place them in sauces later, this unit does a wonderful job of crushing the nuts.**Note that the longer you place this unit on to crush the nuts the more finely it crushes them up. In fact you could keep these going in this food processor until the nuts are almost of a flour consistency.+ Making cream soups - I cream veggies in this and add spices and it makes a very delicate cream soup.+ Milkshakes/Smoothies - Like a blender, and even better, I add my ice cream and milk to make a very yummy shake. It also does a superb job of making fruit smoothies.+ Pesto/Sauces - I mix up a perfect Pesto sauce in this food processor. This is where I add my almonds just for flavor in the pesto and it is so good!Very good food processor and I highly recommend it!

This food processor has a decent amount of power. It's a bit heavy but I don't move it around too much so that's not a big deal. It suctions to the counter really well and doesn't move. I have had no issues with chopping things, it works well. The biggest downside I have found is that the inside wall where the blade sits is a bit low and I have to be very careful when I'm working with liquids.

Love this food processor.. I've used it so often its paid for itself 10 times over! No more cutting/dicing veggies by hand.. and no more shredding cheese with a grater..Bought one for a Christmas gift and a friend purchased one a few months ago and absolutely loves it. Wish I had purchased one years ago!

I'm very happy with this processor. It doesn't take up too much space, but has a good capacity. Not super loud like the ones I've had in the past.

I was looking for a Processor to shred and slice in quantity. I was looking for Stainless Steel blades. I had bought Kitchen Aid attachments for my Mixer which Rust almost on contact for double the money And made my Mixer Start Squeaking(SO Disappointing) This Processor is 1/3 the cost of others and it is Awesome! I pulse everything. For all the veggies I've tried it is Fast and makes me giggle at all the time I'm saving! And then it washes up in a snap! O and it was delivered really quick tho I chose standard! I'll be checking Amazon.ca for everything I Buy now! Bought in February 2014. I’ve worked it hard lol and it died February 2020. RIP still love it 💕💕💕

I was impressed with how well the food processor mixed the hummus I made. It did not turn out nearly as smooth with my old food processor. The plastic is thinner than my last one so I am unsure how well it will last, but so far I love it!
