Food processors

Find the best food processor for your kitchen with our buying guide and test results.

We’ve put food processors through their paces: slicing carrots, chopping breadcrumbs, grating cheese, kneading pastry and emulsifying mayonnaise. We’ve also assessed how easy they are to use, clean and store.

Overall score breakdown

Overall score includes:

Performance (60%): Based on how well the food processors performed across a range of processing tasks: slicing carrots, chopping breadcrumbs, grating cheese, kneading pastry and emulsifying mayonnaise. If a processor has a blender attachment, we puree soup. If it has a mini-processor we make pesto and curry paste. These additional tests don’t contribute to our overall score.

Ease of use (40%): We also looked at how easy it was to use the controls, read the labels, lock and release the bowls and attachments, and clean and store the unit.
