About this product
This Hamilton Beach 70740 food processor has an 8-cup capacity and 2-speed settings for slicing and chopping vegetables. The electric unit features a plastic bowl and components, and is made in the United States. It weighs approximately 6 pounds and operates on 120V. The model includes a bowl but no additional discs beyond basic slicing and chopping blades. Priced at $64.99, it comes with a 1-year manufacturer warranty. Fast shipping is noted.
Our take
I picked up the Hamilton Beach 70740 and it's a straightforward workhorse. The 8-cup bowl is a nice size for everyday use, and the two speeds cover most needs. I appreciate that it's made in the USA — a rarity these days. The 450-watt motor is fine for soft to medium veggies but bogs down on dense carrots. The plastic bowl feels durable enough, though not premium. For $65 it's a fair deal, especially with the warranty.
