The Best Food Processors in Canada

High performance, great price point, and easy to use – Cuisinart’s 8-Cup food processor has all the power without a high price tag. This food processor may not be as powerful as a professional one but it will do the trick for any home cook. 

The bowl is a BPA-free plastic that’s durable, long-lasting, and dishwasher safe. It comes with a long feed tube, and is compact for an 8-cup size, making it perfect for any counter spaces. All removable parts are easy to clean and dishwasher safe – No more worrying about clean-up after prepping dinners. 

The stainless-steel slicing/shredding disc is reversible, and the mixing/chopping blade is also included with Cuisinart’s food processor. There’s a 2-year warranty that comes with it if anything happens to go wrong. 

High, low, and pulse settings are easy to use and will handle your processing needs with ease. The 350-watt food processor power should be able to take care of most tasks you throw its way; however, it may not be enough if you’re looking for a heavier duty processor. It might have a more difficult time handling thicker and hefty vegetables or mixing dough. Great for purees, and other functions that don’t require a lot of power in the first place – such as chopping or slicing. In that regard, it’s more than enough.

The bowl, lid, and blade are easily cleaned in the dishwasher, while the body can handle a damp wipe down when it gets dirty. Two speeds and a Pulse option allow you to customize your usage, whether it’s for coarsely chopped veggies or smooth purees. The bowl also has a pour spout, making it easier to pour your sauces or dressings exactly where you need them to be.
