Oster Inspire Food Processor 3212

Date Published: 1/30/08

The Oster Inspire Food Processor 3212 is an efficient and affordable alternative to higher priced models.

This unit has a 500-watt motor capable of chopping, slicing, shredding, mixing, kneading, or pureeing an assortment of ingredients. It comes with a 10-cup capacity clear work bowl, stainless-steel S blade, French fry cutter, slicing/shredding disk, dough blade, cover with feed tube, and food pusher. A handy plastic storage case holds the disks and accessories when not in use. The plastic container not only keeps the clutter to a minimum, but also protects both the blades and user from accidental nicks.

The motor base is styled in brushed stainless steel with black matte accents and three touchpad control buttons (on, off, pulse) for easy operation. The work bowl locks in place on the base for hassle-free processing. An oversize handle on the work bowl has a non-slip black grip for easy maneuvering. The 2-inch-wide oval-shaped feed tube allows you to feed larger pieces into the cutting blades. Larger produce items, such as potatoes, still need to be cut in half to fit. The weighed base has four large rubber feet that keep it firmly in place during use.

The single-speed motor makes short work of basic tasks, such as chopping nuts, blending creamy dips, or pureeing cooked vegetables. The disk attachments lets you slice or shred carrots, cabbage, potatoes, cheeses, and more in a fraction of the time it would take to do by hand.

The clever French fry disk combines a standard slicing blade with evenly spaced secondary slicers to cut squared potato "sticks" that you can bake or fry. You also get a rubber spatula for scraping the work bowl and a beautiful full-color recipe book.

If you are looking for an economical, simple appliance that performs well, look no further than the Oster Inspire Food Processor 3212.
