Ratings Food processors and choppers

 

HOW TO USE CANADA EXTRA

The Ratings on this page are based on our December 2006 report, but they list only the products that are sold in Canada. To find out more about these models, see our latest complete Ratings of food processors and choppers, which have been updated to note discontinued models and current prices. (For some products, the Canadian model differs slightly from the one used in the U.S.)

In most cases, the prices we list here are the approximate retail, in Canadian dollars. Manufacturers' list prices are indicated by a black asterisk (*) next to the price. "NA" means that information wasn't available from the manufacturer. If a product is high in overall quality and relatively low in price, we deem it a CR Best Buy.

We also offer a list of agencies and organizations that Canadians can turn to for help with a variety of consumer problems.


Twelve of the 24 tested food processors and all 8 choppers are available, including all 3 Quick Pick models.
