Your cart is empty. Designed to be uniquely simple, The Hamilton Beach stack & snap 12 cup food processor requires no twisting, turning or locking during assembly. Instead, it’s as easy as stacking the 12 cup bowl onto the base, then snapping on the lid. Easy to use - Disc attachments are reversible and labeled, which takes the guesswork out of processing. The label should face up for the desired function. When using disc attachment, do not process foods past the max level indicator on the bowl. FOOD MAXIMUM AMOUNTTO PROCESS Dry ingredients such as crackers or nuts 12 cups (2.8 L) Vegetables or fruits 3 pounds (1.4 kg) Cheese such as Parmesan or Cheddar 40 ounces (1.2 L) Thick sauces or dips 8 cups (1.9 L) Liquids such as marinades or soups 7 cups (1.7 L).
Troubleshooting: (1) Unit does not operate on any speed or Pulse - Is the unit plugged in? Does the outlet work? Is the lid latched in place? See “How to Use” sections. Place lid on bowl, making sure to align the pour spout on the lid with the pour spout on the bowl. Is the large food pusher in the chute? The large food pusher must be in place to operate. Is the food chute overfilled? Do not add food above the MAX fill line. The large food pusher must be in the food chute to operate. (2) Food is not sliced or shredded uniformly - Packing too much food in the food chute or pushing too hard on the food pusher may cause the processed food to be irregularly sliced or shredded. Refer to the Food Processing Charts for recommended sizes and quantities. (3) Unit has a burning smell - There may be a residue left on the motor from the manufacturing process, causing a slight odor during initial use. This will go away. If a strong odor or any visible smoke appears, unplug unit IMMEDIATELY and call the Customer Service number. More info regarding troubleshoot available on the user manual.

I am not the type of person to spend ridiculous sums of money on a high-end food processor for the house. This nice 12 cup processor fits my needs without a problem. I had to replace my Kenmore food processor when the pulse switch stopped working. Since Kenmore no longer has the lifetime warranty, and I did not feel like futzing with the switch, I opted to buy this baby instead.Let's go over the pros and cons:PROS:1. Powerful. I can go from whole tomatoes to tomato sauce in 3 seconds. Salsa takes about 7 seconds. Bread dough riding the blade in less then 15 seconds. I have made all of these in the past week.2. Large capacity. My last processor was 8 cup. This is 12 cup.3. Easy snap lock assembly. No twisting and turning the bowl to get it in place.4. Suction cups to lock it to the counter so it doesn't "walk"5. 2 Speeds and a pulse switch6. SHARP blades. 2 blades, an S-blade and a slicer/shredder disc6. Easy to clean up. Spray all the parts with my sink sprayer and load it in the TOP rack of the dishwasherOn that last note, I saw the comments about the S-blade possibly harboring mold. I use my sprayer to spray everything out before putting it in the dishwasher. Do NOT use the SANI or heated dry mode per the manufacturer's recommendations. Once the wash cycle is done, remove the S-blade and shake it thoroughly over the sink. Using a sprayer helps to get any possible trapped food particles out of the design, although I have yet to have anything get trapped. Wipe it off and store it.CONS:1. Single piece construction of the S- Blade. I prefer two piece, but it works fine.2. I did not know that Hamilton Beach makes this with a bowl scraper attachment as well. Maybe I should have looked a little more, but my house needs a working food processor, with pulse.Neither of the above are enough for me to reduce a star in the rating so 5 star it is. It should last me quite a while, since I use a processor 3-4 times a week. If you do not need a $300 food processor, this little fellow will serve you well.

I'm so happy with my food processor. I ordered Hamilton Bea ch because my old one was HB and it gave me years of service. This new one is even better. Improved design and even has a slicing blade. So easy to use!

This is the first full size food processor I've owned. So far, I really love it. The first thing I made was homemade hummus. It came out great. I like that it is easy to put together. It is kind of loud, but not unbearable. It cleaned up nicely, I haven't used it for chopping or slicing yet, but will update when I do.The cord could be slightly longer, but not a huge deal. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars as of right now, the handles seem a little flimsy, if they snap off, it will be unusable. Overall, it seems like a pretty powerful unit and the 12 cup is a perfect size for larger amounts of food.

How timely! My food processor was delivered the day before Thanksgiving. Just in time to immediately try it out on everyone for Thanksgiving dinner. It was all fast and efficient at making a batch of coleslaw in under 30 minutes, and easy to clean right away too.I weighed in what I know so far about this machine.--Its easy to assemble, and easy to clean,--excepting some stuff getting caught in the handle and taking a little more effort to clean.--Its made of a cheaper plastic, the kind that easy to break or crack,--so handle with care and it should last awhile.--Its quite large, 16 1/4" tall,--oh darn it won't fit under my kitchen cabinets.--I researched compared with other processors before ordering. I liked this one for its easy to read push button controls,--surprisingly others didn't have that.Other processor reviews came up with problems--"Oh shoot! my chute is clogged--or missing and defective parts. But this Hamilton Beach processors only main issue seemed to be the quality of plastic. So, I decided to go with ordering it, and also being the most cost effective. I believe I've made the right decision,--I'm happy with it so far!

I love the food processor adaptor for my blender but miss it when I'm at our summer place. Now I can leave the old one at the summer home and have a great food processor here at home, too! I used this to make my dog's treats and it worked fantastic!

I ordered this food processor because I was up to my eyeballs in zucchini this year. I make a lot of zucchini chocolate chip bread (usually 50 loaves as I freeze them) -- so it takes a lot of shredding to get the zucchini ready to use. I was using my box shredder and I knew there was no way that I was doing that this year. I love this food processor as it snaps together easily, has attachments so you can shred, chop, etc. I am also pureeing my cherry tomatoes and all my extra tomatoes for spaghetti sauce and homemade tomato soup (which I also freeze in bags). This is a super handy very well made unit, that I should have gotten years ago. I highly recommend it.

This processor is easy to operate. It has a large container & chops & processes the food perfectly. I am very pleased with this item. Very easy to take apart & clean too.

Llevo con el casi 5 años y nunca he tenido problema, la foto que anexo es de cuando me llegó y pues todo bien. He hecho hummus, falafel, cortar verduras, crema de cacahuate y procesar varios tipos de alimentos. Si necesitas que quede muy muy fino no te lo recomendarÃa, ya que llega hasta cierto lÃmite, aunque para hacer cremas de nueces y semillas si funciona perfecto, solo debes agregar bastante cantidad para que se alcance a moler por completo ya que es bastante grande. Es muy muy ruidoso pero creo que aplica para cualquier procesador.

Este procesador es una gran ayuda dentro de la cocina, muy fácil de usar pero no tanto de limpiar. Muy potente y versátil. La opción para picar es genial, el rallador espectacular, pero el rebanado es lo mejor. Tiene muy buen tamaño tanto e apertura como de su recipiente general. Muy buena opción a un muy buen precio.

Me pareció un excelente producto, costo - benéficio Ok. Potencia, diseño y funcionalidad. He ahorrado mucho tiempo, a diferencia de usar un cuchillo. Pude mezclar galleta y mantequilla a la vez, para crear la masa del Pay.
