Philips 750 W Kitchen Food Processor HR7761/01 with Accessories for + 28 Functions

2019: After years of use I am delighted to say the machine is still working 100%. I use it every year to grate apples and pears prior to pressing for cider at 30 odd kilos per gallon. I've already made 7 gallons this year just from windfalls, that's a lot of apples to grate. The only glitch has been the central pin in the top of the thingie that drives the blades, getting pressed down a little. Probably because of my cider making. It was easy to pull it back out with a pair of pliers.-------8<-------Neat design a little lacking in places such as the feed shoot being a bit narrow. The instruction leaflet is poorly designed but contains all you need to know, except what the icons of food are supposed to be.The processor is easy to set up and cut yourself with the razor sharp implements. I tried to grate white cabbage using the large grater but it was too fine. Swapped for the deep slicer which lived up to its name as I inserted it in the holder. The cabbage came out okay (slightly blood red in places) but for large pieces of flat leaf that missed the cutter. The grinder seems a bit useless and too much of a faff.The emulsifier disk, a wobbly plate, makes the best and quickest mayonnaise I've ever done. Superb. No slow drizzle to get things going, just glug in the oil. The machine is worth it for that alone.

This was bought to replace an elderly Kenwood food processor whose motor is still working but whose plastic is crumbling! I did lots of research before buying.Plus points - lots of different graters, slicers, choppers etc. I like that it has a liquidiser goblet, a jug/bowl and a chopper all working off the same base unit. The cutters are SHARP - managed to cut myself unpacking and assembling for the first time! Lead stows away in the motor base. The bits do all more or less fit into the bowl and goblet if you want; I prefer to keep all the bits in a separate box however. Pulse and two speed motor are good. All the bits are reasonably easy to fit and remove. Dishwasher washable (except obviously the motor unit).Minus points - you need to fit goblet/bowl/cutter quite firmly to engage the motor. It is correspondingly quite hard to undo them. The plastic bowl and goblet seem to be lighter weight than my ancient Kenwood and I am not sure this machine will provide the 20 years' service that the Kenwood has. Time will tell.Verdict - better quality output than ancient Kenwood, bigger capacity, much more versatile and practical. Takes up no more space with more gadgetty bits. Definitely a hit. Would highly recommend.

Luckily I got this item when it was reduced price! This product by Philips is what I expected, the only problem is there isn't a storage box included but for the price I got the best I could buy! It is simple but be careful with the sharp attachment blades! It is powerful & not heavy. Buy this! It makes chopping vegetables easy & takes 3-4 secs per onion sliced thinly 1.2mm!!! You can; do up to 500grams of food in the processor! Powerful & good result. It does what a £200 item does. It is s good value for money. & I recommend every kitchen should have this. 2 year guarantee. 5 slicing blades , a blender! A mini jug blender! 3 in 1.

We bought this to replace a very (about 30 years) old Kenwood food processor. I was worried it might be a case of new technology being inferior, but we have been very impressed with this Philips machine. We mainly use the standard blade to blend food for soups etc and it works brilliantly - super-quick and quieter than the old machine.Perhaps the biggest advantage is that we can put everything in the dishwasher afterwards - so much easier to tidy up and means we use it more often as a result.It looks nice too and doesn't take up too much space on the worktop - although you need cupboard space for the accessories, and I highly recommend a box for the smaller accessories and blades to keep them together and reduce the risk of accidental cuts (the blades are extremely sharp).For the asking price (about £50-60 at the time of writing) it is very good value and we have no regrets.

I've owned this food processor for a few months now and use it often. Here are my thoughts:1. It is lightweight - Much lighter than my old food processor so it is nice and easy to move around between surfaces2. It is powerful as hell! I haven't had any trouble using it on anything that I've made, including breadcrumbs, coffee grounds etc3. The attachments are easily interchangeable and I love the grating attachments. I have to admit I haven't used them all, but the ones I have used have worked awesomely4. I like the suction cups on the bottom, which seem to add a little more stability to the machine. My old food processor was much heavier and held itself to the counter, but the suction cups help keep this one held down5. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE MINI GRINDER!!! We use it three or four times a day for coffee and it's brilliant.The only downside I've come across so far is that it can be difficult to clean the inside of the regular blade, since it is ridged on the inside. It's not a huge deal, and honestly, my old food processor was also difficult to clean, but just in a different way.Don't let this put you off buying this though, I love it so far and it works very well on pretty much everything you could throw at it (though I haven't had a go at using the blender yet!)

I don't normally write reviews but I am so pleased with this machine I had to share it. I decided to replace my Magimix Mini (cost more than twice the price of the Philips and I didn't like it at all) and looked for a popular machine on Amazon, so bought the Philips. It's wonderful! It takes a large quantity and chops quickly and evenly; it has a good range of easily fitted slicer and grater blades which work well; and the minichop attachment is really efficient for herbs, nuts or anything small - though I confess it did take me a while to work out how it fitted on to the motor. All the parts are easy to clean as well as to use. A great food processor and very good value.

I have had this machine for 4 years. I recently started using it more extensively, so could test more functions. I bought this food processor with a few expectations: I should be able to chop, shred, mix, beat eggs which are basic functions to be expected from a standard food processor.The good:- easy to clean- suction cups ensure stability of the food processor in most usage scenarios- colour coded accessories make it easy to chose the right speed for a given accessory- chopping, shredding, grinding attachments are fine.The bad:- First of all, I think this food processor has a major design flaw: the operating temperature of the motor is too high, and the heat generated transfers rapidly to the content of the bowl, which is not good for most recipes.- The motor does not generate enough torque for the kneading accessory to operate at the recommended speed. With 250g of flour, the motor struggles and overheats. So you cannot use the appliance for this purpose.- If you are not a bread baker, but like to bake cakes, you'll be surprised to find out that this machine does not beat egg whites. The recommended emulsifying disk is useless at this task, and the heat transfer from the motor does not help.I would not recommend buying this product, I would also state that Philips is being a bit naughty and overstating the capabilities of this product

This is a good processor. I purchased it 2 years ago and it does everything pretty effectively: blend, slice, chop, and grind spices as well. I don't use the bread tool very often but when I do it is pretty good to knead dough as well. Sadly, the reason I am giving it 3 stars is for its blender and spice mixer jar. Both of them have the same blade that screw on at the bottom of the jar and also serve as a seal for the base. I once lost the rubber washer around this blade a few months ago and had to order a replacement blade, but I've faced the same problem both times: the blades do not seal the blender or spice mixer fully! This means if you put liquids in your blender jar expect a good drizzle of soup all over the base! It is very messy, so bad that I now resort to straining out only the vegs from my soup and mixing it back into the stock. And my thai curry paste and chutneys, which are done in the smaller spice jar, all come out with about 10% splattered all over the base, motor, knob, etc. It's ridiculous. I have been seriously considering a nutribullet or vitamix just so I can blend soups and chutneys without worrying about splattering my kitchen with it. It won't happen straightaway though, your jar will be fine for a year and then slowly start developing a trickle, which gets progressively worse. If you are the type that will only use the spice mixer for dry powders and rarely use the blender go for it! If I knew another good model or brand I would recommend it but sadly I don't.

thia is really an awesome product, it's worth buying this product
