Hamilton Beach Food Processor
Score: 72/100
Oster 10-Cup Food Processor
Score: 79/100Rankings
The Oster FPSTFP1355 is a 10-cup food processor with a 500 W motor, wide feed tube and versatile reversible disc, making it suitable for everyday chopping and shredding. Its limited liquid capacity and temperature restriction reduce its usefulness for soups or hot batters. Best for home cooks who need solid performance without the need for extensive liquid processing.
The Hamilton Beach 70730 Food Processor combines a robust 450-W motor with a large 10-cup bowl and multiple blades for versatile food prep. Its bulkier size and short warranty may be drawbacks for space-constrained kitchens. Suited for families needing high-capacity, multi-function processing.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional sources are limited; product pages and retailer descriptions highlight the powerful motor, multi-functionality and easy cleanup, but note the lack of independent third-party reviews.
Everyday users appreciate the motor power, dishwasher-safe parts and compact size of the 3-cup version, but commonly mention the absence of slicing/shredding capability in smaller models and the bulkiness of the larger 8-cup unit.
Professional reviewers at Consumer Reports commend the Oster Total Prep FPSTFP1355 for its reliable chopping power, high-quality shredding/slicing disc, and effective dough blade, noting that it performs well across a range of common kitchen tasks despite the lack of publicly available detailed scores.
