Downsized recently? Just starting out on your own, in a tiny first apartment or a crammed college dorm? There’s no reason to forgo the finer things in life. After all, just because you’re low on space doesn’t mean you have to skimp on essential kitchen gadgets. Our space-saving solution? The mini food processor.
There are plenty of reasons to get one, whether you're inclined to throw together a quick salsa or whip up an easy pie crust. They're also great for prepping veggies—who wants to finely dice a green pepper when a machine can do it for you?—which can majorly cut down on the time it takes to get dinner on the table.
Our Top Picks for the Best Mini Food Processors of 2024
No matter your motivation, mini food processors have your back and can do everything a regular food processor can do—just in smaller batches. Unlike a blender, which pulverizes food, processors can leave ingredients with some texture and weight. (After all, who wants to sip their homemade coleslaw through a straw?) Plus, many are versatile enough to do everything from mincing and pulsing to grating and shredding.
Have we convinced you yet? Good. Read on for our recommendations for the eight best mini food processors on the market. For those looking for more kitchen tools to streamline your cooking process, check out our recommendations for the best food processors and immersion blenders.
How we picked these products

To find the best mini food processors, we tapped celebrity chef and Chopped judge Amanda Freitag, Grove Bay Hospitality culinary director and chef Kenny Gilbert, Rusty Pelican Miami executive chef Fiorela Cornejo, and Delish assistant food editor Taylor Ann Spencer for their top recs. We also spoke with our friends at the Good Housekeeping Institute—including Kitchen Appliances & Culinary Innovation Lab director Nicole Papantoniou—who rigorously put everyday products to the test (and then more and more tests) in their New York City-based labs to determine which ones you can trust. They assessed mini food processors based on how well they minced parsley, chopped onions, and ground Parmesan cheese, as well as how easy they were to use and clean. After gathering insights from all of our experts, we've determined that these are the best mini food processors you can buy in 2023.
