8 Best Food Processors of 2022

Best large-batch food processor:

Cuisinart DFP-14BCNY 14 Cup Food Processor

• Price: $$
• Wattage: 720
• Number of attachments: 3
• Capacity: 14 cups

For large-batch soups or pizza dough to feed a crowd, Cuisinart’s 14-cup machine does the job with minimal fuss. Three attachments and a simple two-button design keep things uncomplicated as you whip up high volume recipes.

And for extra fun, multiple color options are available to add some whimsy to your kitchen. (How about a pop of gold or sky blue on your countertop?) Just be aware that this Cuisinart model is on the pricier side.

 

Best power food processor:

Breville 16-Cup Sous Chef Peel & Dice Food Processor

• Price: $$$
• Wattage: 1,200
• Number of attachments: 5 discs, 3 blades
• Capacity: 16 cups

A mighty motor is the hallmark of Breville’s 16-cup, 1,200-watt machine. Reviewers rave that this food processor can shred 30 pounds of potatoes in mere minutes and turn cream into butter in seconds. Experienced chefs will love its stunning array of attachments, which come in their own little plastic home.

All these fancy features do, of course, come with a high price tag of about $300. And this machine’s many (literal) moving parts mean that it comes with a learning curve — not to mention a large footprint in your kitchen.
