If you’re a cook who needs to get dinner on the table quickly, a food processor can feel like an additional pair of hands in the kitchen. It will allow you to prep a range of food—whether you’re grating cheese, chopping nuts, slicing vegetables, or kneading dough—at lightning speed. We’ve been testing food processors since 2013, and we remain convinced that the simple, sturdy, and powerful Cuisinart Custom 14-Cup Food Processor is the best choice for most home cooks.

Cuisinart Custom 14 Cup Food Processor, the best food processor

Cuisinart Custom 14 Cup Food Processor

The best food processor
This is one of Cuisinart’s most basic models, but it consistently chops, slices, and kneads better than any other food processor we’ve found for under $250.
We recommend
KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper, a mini option

KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper

A mini option
This mini, 3.5-cup processor is too small for making bread dough or coleslaw, but it’s the ideal size for chopping one onion or making small batches of mayo or vinaigrette.
Budget friendly
Breville Sous Chef 16 Pro, a larger, more powerful option

Breville Sous Chef 16 Pro

A larger, more powerful option
We recommend this large, 16-cup processor only if you’re cooking for a crowd multiple times a week. The Sous Chef is more than twice the price of the Cuisinart Custom 14, and it’s more powerful (and much bigger) than most people need.
