Ovente Mini Food Processor, Mincer, Chopper, Salsa Maker 1.5 Cup, PF1007B

Like the cutter head on these for making coleslaw and for me the smaller footprint for storage was more of a priority than having the larger Appliance it's easier for me to dump the cup out a few more times then to lose the storage space of a larger unit most food processors don't do well if you try to discharge shredded cabbage these do fine but you have to empty the cup about 4 to 5 times for full head of cabbage

I tried this processor four times. I kept sending it back and each time it quit working as soon as I started shredding cheese and would not cut back on. After four times, I finally gave up and am ordering another brand. Definitely would not recommend this processor.

I am a minimalist bachelor. I don't need a 792 cup gargantuan food processor. I need something small and simple for occasional use. There are lots of choppers, but virtually NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, in the super-small food processors from major brands that shred. I mince garlic and ginger for stir-fry, make an occasional chutney or salsa, and most importantly, shred ultra-sharp cheddar and freeze it for use in omelettes etc., it is not sold shredded in the really sharp variety. You would think finding a mini FP that shreds is easy, but it is not. This is small, of middling quality, typical made-in-China residential (not commercial) quality item. It shredded a 2lb block of cheddar no problems. Yes, you have to cut things into small pieces. No, this thing is not robust, yes I could see it breaking eventually if not careful. The thing is, you have to have a brain or use it when operating a device this small. You can't just ram thick food in rapidly like a larger more powerful food processor, or it WILL break. In particular, the cheese attachment (shredder) is this disc mounted to and protruding from a long thin central plastic piece, like a pizza spinning on a vertical dowel under its center. Any excess of pressure, bending, deformation, etc., and it will certainly break. I don't consider this a defect, but an intrinsic limitation of a $27 mini food processor that is only 50W of power and is made from plastic. If it had metal parts and a 150W motor, the price would be much higher. I would have gladly paid that price but there is NO such product. I don't consider this a great bargain, for $15 more I could have gotten a MUCH better 8-cup version from a top manufacturer, but I need small and portable. The motor has ample power, but is only designed for short bursts of less than thirty seconds. I strongly suspect that those who broke this food processor used way to much force and treated it more like a normal full sized processor than a small one which is somewhat delicate. For me, it makes small amounts of simple items fine. I am docking stars because Oventi tech support, which I asked questions prior to sale, was horrible, not talking pandemic-related delays which I don't fault for, but just imbeciles who did not answer my questions. They had three small FPs listed on site, all out of stock, no differentiation, manuals don't provide thorough instructions for everything. The same blade functions as shredder and slicer. Slicer never be mistaken for quality of a $200 kitchen aid, but does the job. Cheese shreds small and thin, but does the job. Bread mixer also works, though batches in this would have to be small. I intend to use this in a Camper Van, so the bread/mixing attachment huge plus. The mixer shredder can be used 2 ways, to deposit into lower cylinder, or with plastic piece under it out a chute into an external container. The small external chute really sprays things sideways, so you need something the chute can essentially submerge into. It makes such a mess I just fill the small container and empty it repeatedly, which is no big deal, when say shredding a 2lb block of cheese. I trust Ovente products since buying their electric kettles, which work really well, so took a chance on this. Other observations are that the feeding chute and shredder output get really gunked up and have small grooves and catches that make cleaning more of a pain than even on much bigger food processors. Not a deal breaker, but not ideal. Overall, if you need a small food processor that shreds, slices, and kneads, this is the only one I have found on market, it works, I think most people who broke theirs are probably dunces, and the product is solid though far from perfect.

There is little in the way of product information in the "sales booklet" and even the company website gives conflicting info or no info on the included items in the box. It does work for a simple small processor, but that is all it is simple & small. There are no instructions on how to install the parts nor which parts go with which other parts. IE: there are two different parts that the slice/shredder plate can go on, one of which is not even mentioned on any of the reference places, not on Amazon nor Ovenete.com, not on the box, nor the booklet. I sent this to a friend who had no experience cooking, and she was very confused by it. I took a few minutes to figure it out. Still if you use a little bit of common sense and just a bit of trial and error, you will do ok.

great product and fast shipping
