Black & Decker FP1435 390-Watt Food Processor

 (5 customer reviews)

This processor is a waste of money. It worked for all of six months. The chute design was also annoying--it didn't work as intended, and once you lose the little plastic guard piece, it only serves to make a mess. Do yourself a favor and spend a little more on a processor that isn't being produced as cheaply as possible per Wal-Mart's requirements.

This model is perfect for chopping and slicing onions, garlic, shallots, peppers, carrots, cheese and any other vegetable or solid product you can think of! Also this is great if you don't have an immersion blender for bisques or chunky soups that need to be chopped until almost pureed. If you're making anything liquid like a vinaigrette or pea soup, it will get messy with this model. I just use my blender for that. It works out much better. Hopes this helps!

I purchased the product at Meijer store and when back home was scared by disappointing amazon reviews. However I still started manual reading and gave it a try today.

The manual is difficult to read. Took me about 30min to understand everything. You need to rotate the base hard to get it locked in position. Lid can be locked easily afterwards.

My main purpose is to ground meat. And this works much better than my old 3 cup kitchenaid. It's bigger blade and chop everything in a bigger volume. You do need to close the slide to the side opening and the top. Then I proceed with mincing vegetables. Used slicer on the top and chopper at the bottom. Works perfectly.

Keep in mind you need to read the manual and fully understand the fuction of all parts before you proceed. If you make mistake in one step, it will not work.

This food processor is cheap and can handle almost all solid foods like patato, carrots, cucumber etc. Would recommend to anyone.
