Shocked to see so many negative reviews. I use mine for everything! Blending frozen fruit - great. Grating veggies - no issues. Kneading - perfect. Love it and tell it everytime it's used

Poorly designed. When grating cheese large chunks (I mean really large) get stuck between the grating disk and the top of the processor. You have to dig them out with a knife. No way of cleaning parts of it, as you cannot get your fingers into the small spaces.
The main column that drives the grating disc snapped whist grating cheese, within 3 months of buying it.
it doesn't work properly, its noisy, parts can't be cleaned, and it breaks easily.
Don't buy it!

I cannot believe that this processor is still on the market. I bought this as it was on special came home and putting it together is a nightmare, you need a university degree to work this thing out. I was so frustrated that i left it and tried again several months later where i finally worked out how everything clicks together only to start using it and shocked the level of noise this thing makes. I have to use this when nobody is home and i have to block my ears because the noise literally hurts my ears. It is ridiculous how loud this thing is, our chainsaw is not as noisy.

This machine is so loud, I have only used it twice and now it is going in the bin!
The locking mechanism is a drama. I just hate it, waste of money.

I am satisfied about the product. The speed and sound is perfect. The only thing I didn't like was that it was kind of hassel to clean it up after using.

This machine looks wonderful but from the first time I used it I had great difficulty getting the lid to lock. I struggled and struggled and eventually I got it. Then I couldn't unlock it. Have had the same problem three times now. An expensive piece of equipment that I can no longer use. Had to get my husband to unlock it today and even he struggled. Wise up Russell Hobbs. If you are going to make these products, at least make them user friendly.

This is second multi food processor we got, stick to the same one. Our old last for around 4 years and we used blender to make smoothies, food processor to cut vegetables for us, and it worked perfectly. It did exactly what we needed. We love the glass design. The rubble legging design to stop it moving around. Whole set only cost $99

Very disappointed with this purchase for a number of reasons.
• It’s unbelievably LOUD!!!
• The blade doesn’t seem to process the food on the outer edges so you have to constantly stop the machine and scrape down the edges. So it takes so much longer than it should to process something simple like biscuit crumbs. Keeping in mind the first point that the machine is insanely loud.
• Its not particularly quick and easy to put the machine together or to clean it.
There are much better machines on the market. I wouldn’t recommend buying this one.

My biggest dislike is how noisy the motor is to the point it overrides any positive feedback. The small bowl is handy and the machine appears to do everything it is supposed to. I find it also frustrating how many parts it has to attach the lid. On a positive note it is easy to pull apart and clean. I wish I'd kept my old processor and will likely research and by another one in the near future.

This is the noisiest piece of kitchen equipment I have ever purchased in 50 yrs.
Not easy to assemble, cumbersome
Food sticks around the food bowl cover near the chute, this gap requires pipe cleaners to clean this are
The noise this processor makes is unbelievable can only use this when home alone!

I am surprised this has got on the market how loud it is, I have to wear earmuffs to use it. Haven't used it much but it's so unbearable it needs to go in the bin. I should have sent it back after the first time I used it, hopefully when they make more they will consider the noise issue.

This machine is extremely noisy, but not very powerful Blade attachment broke after 10 months of infrequent use. Not a great machine. The lid also gets stuck and is difficult to open. For the same money it will be better to purchase something which is at least quiet enough to use safely.

I could not believe how noisy this product is. Unbelievable!!! My lawnmower is not as loud and I am not joking. After taking it out of the box and setting it up and promptly put it right back in and took it back to the store for a refund. I can only the pity the poor people at the factory who make them - they must all have industrial deafness. Definitely don't buy this unless you also get ear muffs, seriously, you'll need them.

I use my Russell Hobbs blender quite a bit for soup and sometimes for sweet baking. I like his its fast and makes kitchen cooking go faster. I find the noise is loud but they always have been with such machines. Maybe someone will invent a silent machine in the future. I would recommend this product to others

Im so impressed with this machine, its reliable, easy to use, easy to clean and does such a great job, I recommend this one over all for value for money and incredible performance.
Its not noisy and has so many different settings.
Wiw what a machine AAA.
Could not be happier.

Too loud, i hate it! It seems to work too fast to grate the food - so you are ending up with large pieces of veg left over. Wish i could return it. All the safety locks are a bit too much and the chute is not big enough for me. Very disappointed.

Bought it this morning, it was ok to put together. I have used my friends Breville FP to process cauliflower rice. But, this one didn’t do the job with the blades, I changed to the shredder!! I’ll keep trying with it!
Very noisy too in fact it’s really noisy, can’t hear a thing when using it!!

Bought as a replacement for my old faithful food processor and used it for 5 mins and couldn't believe how loud it was ( I need ear plugs and people complain about motorbikes ) chucked it in the shed and will try and use to make fish berly. Others on here must be staff of Russell hobs or have never had a proper food processor. Do not buy this piece of junk.

We got one from Kmart as it was on special and we needed a food processor. It took a while to work out how to put it together so it would work (safety features). Once working we found the direct drive very loud, its ok you get used to it but it shocks you at first. It powerful however with only bottom blade it probably also needs a top blade as some food items don't fall to the bottom and you sometimes get a blended mix at the bottom and nothing at top. This is solved by not overloading the processor. So its OK for a $70 item on special.

We brought this food processor for work. It's quite powerful and blows the Kmart processor I have at home out of the competition. I'm not a huge fan of the way the lid locks on as it's all a bit complex and I feel a bit unnecessary but it's something I can live with. What i don't like about the product, however. Is that it's rediculously loud. You literally cannot hear yourself talk whilst using it. Other than the noise, it's a good processor.
