About this deal

Some food processors may also be able to double up as a stand mixer, blender or mini chopper, making them a better value all-in-one buy. Where will you store your food processor? In tests, it performed well – our carrot was grated uniformly, and we made a springy bread dough easily with the blade and a combination of the pulse and low settings. The machine whined and shook a little as the dough came together, and some crept inside the tool, but overall, our loaf rose well. It’s good value, too. However, keen cooks and those who like to make batches for the freezer will get more use from the extra kit. Use a food processor’s wattage as a rough guide to its power. Remember that how a food processor is designed can have as much bearing on its performance. More watts won’t always mean it’s a better machine but anything over 650W should have enough muscle for most tasks. Are food processors easy to clean?

Your handy little kitchen helper, this Russell Hobbs Desire Food Processor will make all your food prep tasks effortless. From chopping, slicing, dicing, shredding, beating or even creaming, this versatile food processor takes care of the food prep so you can spend less time in the kitchen. chop vegetables for soups, mince garlic for stir fries or process nuts for desserts, this nifty processor can do them all. What the Ninja 3-in-1 Food Processor with Auto-IQ BN800UK does excel in is smart features. It has a blend, chop, puree, and mix setting, as well as a pulse button and three strengths for blending. These programs mean you can simply press to chop or mix depending on your desired outcome, and the process is pre-timed and hands-free. You could even get set on the crudites for your new pureed dip.There is an incremental speed dial for processing plus a pulse. The range of blades will suit both the keen chef and those who like to batch cook. An extra-wide feed tube accommodated every vegetable without much chopping beforehand. Other features of note are a 30-minute eco mode, and a storage box for the blades, ensuring that they stay as sharp as possible. The machine adjusts automatically to the food being processed, while a choice of small or large feed chute allows you to keep vegetables upright. This means you can control the flow of ingredients. Other food processor accessories can include a blender jug, midi and/or mini bowls that nestle inside the main bowl and have their own blades to chop smaller quantities of nuts, herbs or chocolate with less washing-up. A citrus press may be included. What food processor bowl size do I need? Multi by name and by nature, if you want a food processor that handles almost every part of your prep, this is it. The MultiPro Express Food Processor comes with a huge amount of functionality and kit – so there’s a tool for almost any food preparation job, but you’ll have to find somewhere to put it all.

If you’ve ever put off using your food processor for small or medium-sized amounts because of the mountain of washing up at the end of it, the 4200XL is the clever solution you’ve been looking for. It comes with three bowls that nest inside each other, meaning that you can whizz up herbs or mayonnaise in its mini bowl or shred veg in the midi one without having to wash the large main bowl.

The Morphy Richards Prepstar Food Processor stood out to us because we loved its stand mixer counterpart - the Morphy Richards Mixstar - is one of the top mixers we've ever tried. The Morphy Richards Prepstar Food Processor is good too, but it's a little less finessed. Everything comes stowed away inside a caddy that slots into the generous 4 litre food processor bowl. This lifts out for use and you can attach the blades or whisk to the central column, which then attaches to the handle that slots into the top of the machine. This handle is plugged in and then twisted into the bowl, which did take some getting used to. All the food processor tools fit into a handy box after use, leaving just the main 3.7-litre bowl and mini bowl to be stored on the die-cast metal base. There’s also an LED timer for counting down and up. The Russell Hobbs Desire Food Processor has two speeds and a pulse setting, which is very high power and can create smooth sauces easily. It also features a creaming disk, which really impressed us when we used it to make mayonnaise, although it is better used with large quantities thanks to the wide base of the bowl.

It has a three-litre main bowl – with the option of a ‘mini’ 1.6-litre bowl that fits inside. Although the chopping bowl is quite large we found that it struggled when filled above half way, with anything above this point struggling to reach the blades. Nothing can save you more time in the kitchen than the best food processor. These handy home choppers can slice, chop, grate, and even mix homemade dough hands-free. Food processors come with sharp blades to slice through onions, carrots or avocados in seconds, and they often have pulse settings that can be used to make dips like hummus or guacamole.Each and every one of the best food processors in our guide has been tested by the Ideal Hometeam for even chopping, ease of use, and (of course) the cleaning process after you're done. Although some food processors do take up a lot of counter space, especially the ones with attachments for blending or even juicing, others will slot easily next to your toaster until you need it. The size of your food processor bowl will affect how much you can prep in one go. The largest can be up to four litres – ideal if you batch cook or have a big family – but for everyday jobs 1.8-2 litres should be enough. A wide feed chute is also a plus as it’ll mean less initial prep for larger items, such as potatoes or courgettes. Look for a good-quality BPA-free plastic bowl and lid so they’re robust enough not to have to be replaced in a few years. Is storage important?

It seems like food processors just keep on coming out with more attachments and smart options - some can even be used as a blender, and you can even give your stand mixer a break with a food processor to make dough or whip up cream or mayonnaise. The Easy Prep Pro answers this need nicely – it’s more of a day-to-day appliance rather than one you haul out every so often. Plus it’s lightweight and compact enough to move around the kitchen as required. Its two bowls – a main 1.9-litre and mini 700ml – plus matching chopping blades and two reversible slicing/grating discs, are all dishwasher safe. The chopping disc is clever, too. It has three blade attachments for grating and slicing, and these pop out for easy alternation. There was quite a large gap between the blades and top of the bowl in testing, meaning that not everything got shredded evenly. This bowl does have a huge capacity though, which was able to handle an entire cabbage for a coleslaw mix.
