Perfect for prepping food for two-person meals, this mini food processor quickens the process. The processor has two speeds of operation plus a pulse button and a feeding tube that lets you drop ingredients into the processor’s bowl, which has a maximum capacity of 3 cups. However, the attached food chute keeps pumping food out of the bowl and into a separate container, saving you the time of having to empty the bowl to chop each new food and saving you the counter space necessary for a large-quantity food processor. The micro processor comes with a blade for chopping foods such as nuts, garlic, or bread crumbs. Other attachments include a dual shredding/slicing blade that shreds cheese or carrots and slices vegetables. The processor also includes a food gate that further controls the size of food particles to be either coarse or fine. The bowl, lid, and blades are all dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup and the blades all fit inside the bowl for easy storage. Hamilton Beach provides a 2-year limited warranty on this appliance. --Cristina Vaamonde

Only good for a small number of uses

I received this as a gift, and am VERY glad I didn't spend money on it. While it does a decent job of chopping/cutting...it's not great. Plus, it doesn't contain the food very well, and you end up having more outside-the-unit cleanup than you should.
Also, the size is REALLY small. If you are doing a salad, chopping for a large recipe....forget it. It's only good for maybe a cup of chopped whatever-you-need at a time. It ends up taking more time than it saves, what with cleanup, lack of size, etc.
I would recommend it for very small chopping jobs, or as a gift for someone you aren't fond of or don't see very often.

Didn't last long...

Within the first week of purchasing, the cover for the food processor cracked across the top of the chute after very light use and handwashing.

Not a bad little product.

When I got this as a gift I was a bit skeptical, but this little food processor does a good job for the price. It sliced and shredded carrots well. It did a good job with pizza cheese. The food shooter feature is great. I can put in carrots, slice them into a mixing bowl, then chop onions into the same bowl, then throw in some celery and position the shooter over a second mixing bowl. It had trouble chopping things to a uniform size when I put too much material in the bowl. I just have to remember it's only made for about 2 cups of material at a time and it does a fine job. Any more than 2 cups and it gets overwhelmed. If you're looking to make big meals, look at the larger capacity processors.

May be the worst appliance I have ever bought
»
I purchased this product with the idea it would help me out at Thanksgiving from having to cut celery & onions for stuffing. It didn't. There's a chute where your food is suppose to feed through a grater & into a bowl. Doesn't work. It gets stuck in the grater. I had to continously clean out the "chute" to keep it going. I actually ended up chopping everything myself. Would not recommend.
