Hamilton Beach food processor blade post.

Did your older post get brittle and snap off? This is for you

Amazon asked for a review, so I guess I can provide one:

This is a replacement post. Our older HB food processor’s blade post became brittle with time, and shredding a 2-lb brick of cheddar proved too much to handle and it snapped. We were faced with buying a new machine, or buying a replacement post. At 10 bucks, the replacement part is a no-brainer. Sure, we might get a better-quality and more expensive Cuisineart or Kitchenaid machine in the future, but for the moment tossing an non-operational machine into the trash/freecycle/Goodwill is bad karma. Pay 10 bucks now, get the shiny new expensive machine when we can better afford it, and then the next kid who leaves for college/lucky CL buyer/Goodwill will get a machine that works fine.

If your post snapped, just get a new post – even if you decide you don’t want to keep the machine afterwards, it’ll be paying it forward for the next owner.

Also: The two (so far) reviewers who are giving bad marks…

Good part

I have owned my Hamilton Beach Food Processor for several years.

This is the second time I have had to replace the blade post.

Thank goodness I found the part on-line!

Hello it’s a piece of plastic

But the right piece of plastic to make the food processor go round and round. got here quick and the price was ok too.
