Hamilton Beach® Big Mouth® Duo 12 Cup Food Processor with 4 Cup Mini Bowl, 70580

The Hamilton Beach® Big Mouth® Duo 12 Cup Food Processor (70580) is built for home cooks who want the flexibility to handle both big-batch prep and quick everyday tasks from one machine. The large 12-cup bowl takes on slicing and shredding for family meals or meal prep sessions, while the included 4-cup mini bowl is always within reach for a quick chop or small sauce. Both bowls nest together, so storage stays tidy even in compact kitchens.

The Big Mouth® feed chute accommodates whole tomatoes, potatoes, and onions, cutting down on the pre-cutting that slows down most meal prep. A reversible slicing/shredding disc and a versatile S-blade cover the full range of tasks—slicing, shredding, chopping, mixing, and pureeing. The 500-watt motor delivers dependable power through tough ingredients, and 2 speeds plus pulse give you precise control over texture. A cord storage area keeps the counter clear, and dishwasher-safe bowls, lids, and attachments make cleanup straightforward. All food zones are BPA free.

What It’s Made to Do

• Slice and shred vegetables, potatoes, and cheese using the reversible slicing/shredding disc for meal prep and family dinners.
• Chop, mix, and puree sauces, dips, salsa, and spreads with the versatile S-blade and pulse control for precise texture.
• Process large batches with the 12-cup bowl or switch to the 4-cup mini bowl for smaller, quick-prep tasks—without washing a second appliance.
• Feed whole tomatoes, potatoes, and onions directly through the Big Mouth® feed chute to reduce pre-cutting and speed up preparation.
• Power through firm ingredients like raw carrots and hard cheese with the 500-watt motor at 2 speeds plus pulse.

Who It’s Made For

• Home cooks who prep for families and want a large 12-cup bowl that handles bulk slicing, shredding, and batch chopping in fewer rounds.
• Busy weeknight cooks who need the speed of a Big Mouth® feed chute to skip the pre-cutting step and get dinner on the table faster.
• Cooks who regularly switch between large-batch prep and small daily tasks and want one machine—with two bowls—instead of two appliances.
• Anyone who values easy cleanup: dishwasher-safe bowls, lids, and attachments plus a simple wipe-clean touchpad reduce post-cooking effort.
• Cooks with limited counter space who appreciate cord storage and nesting bowls that keep the kitchen organized and clutter-free.
