Black & Decker 8-Cup Food Processor - Chop, Slice & Puree with Ease

Wednesday: easy to use, nice set up
A nice food processor, salsa, soup , chopping fast
has a lot of features I may never use, but... you may like them

but... the new designs of food processors...
you have to watch amounts, spill into the center

and mixing dry ingredients..... gets flour or corn starch all over the kitchen....
really, I have to wrap it with a towel to keep from having ingredients everywhere

a typical case of new and improved meaning... does not perform some requirements as well as it used to

Karis Craig: It works great, but the motor is so loud my daughter runs for cover every time I use it to mix up a "toddler pouch" for her. It would get 5 stars if it was a quiet as my 13 year old Cuisinart.

Moni: I've had this for a few months, and am very pleased. Yes, it maybe does make some noise, but what kitchen appliance does not? It is a very generous size and has been easy to use, and easy to clean up. It has been used for grinding vegetables, fruit, and mixing dough and pie crust, and has always worked well. I think it is a very good value for the price and ease of Amazon Prime.

Evan Davis: We bought this in 2010. We wanted something a bit more than a chopper, but not a full blown food processor. This comes with a chopper, a grater and a slicer. We have used all and they work perfectly. It's easy to clean and has a small footprint so it does not take up much counter space.

Pros: Small footprint, decent size (8 cups), useful (3 functions) and $30 for an appliance that lasted 3 years.

Cons: 1. The spinning part of the unit has 3 tabs that lock it into place. These are prone to breakage. 2. The spindle for attaching the slicer/grater disk is what finally failed for us. First the top anchor broke, but it still worked for a few months. Then the whole spindle broke (grating hard cheese).

$10 a year? Totally worth it.

Update: Bought another one in 2013. Still the best thing we've found on the market for the price.

Denise Michaud: The best price I found for this item was through Amazon and the shipping was free. It cost about $15 more at our local Wally Store. I is worth what I paid, perhaps a bit more. I will use it occasionally - maybe no more than two or three times a month. If I wanted a really good food processor, I would have bought a more expensive model. This one does what I need it to do. It is large enough for what I need, and easy to use. Good and basic. It is on the loud side as other people have said, but it's not running for long periods of time, so it's okay.
