About this product
The West Bend High Performance Food Processor model 6500 includes a shredder/slicer attachment. It is a 500W unit with a single speed and is made of plastic. The set comes with blades, lid, motor base, and pusher. It has detachable parts for easy cleaning. This mini food processor is designed for basic food prep tasks.
Our take
I was hoping the shredder/slicer attachment would make this more versatile, and it does help. The 500W motor is adequate for soft veggies, and the shredder works for carrots and cheese. However, the plastic build feels cheap, and the single-speed operation means no fine control. The bowl is small, so large jobs take multiple batches. At $20, it's a steal if you just need a basic shredder/chopper, but don't expect it to last years or handle heavy use.
