Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Ninja Precision Processor™ 4-Cup Food Processor has a small footprint making it ideal for a kitchen short on counter space. It comes with 2 bowl types, one to process almost anything from chopping nuts, slicing vegetables to pureeing fruit while its auto spiralizer lets you make a variety of vegetable noodles, fettuccini or spaghetti style. A nice touch this food processor has is a closeable drizzle hole lid for conveniently adding oils and other liquids. It is reasonably quiet and its suction cup feet aid in holding the unit in one spot and also reduce vibration. The design is clean, compact and modern. Its modular design allows it to be stowed in cabinets quite easily. The Ninja Precision Processor™ feels sturdy and has heavy duty plastic bowls.

I have a few ninja products and this one fits right in with the rest. It is powerful, full of features, and looks awesome. The spiralizer is neat and the kids think it is the coolest thing since sliced bread. Overall, it is very well built and performs better than expected. When I need a kitchen appliance, I look to Ninja first!

Unbox experience here is great with every single price wrapped up for extra protection and something I think Ninja has been doing right for years. You won't need a manual as common sense will be enough. Started with the chopping feature instead of the dough feature. it chopped up my onions in seconds which would normally take me 2-3 minutes. Lighter than expected and has easy to understand locking mechanisms. Pretty big to fit all needs. Cleaning is a breeze starting with the blades which can be taken off to clean separately. The entire time tie using it you feel like a professional. All-in-all this is a great unit that I can't stop myself from recommending to you or to family members for gifts.

I haven't always been a fan of Ninja products. But this was surprisingly good. Small footprint on the counter, that was welcome. I dont think it quite lives up to the 4 cup claim. Food fills it up pretty quickly. I like the versatility of the spiralizer and the processor components. Have not tried making dough, but it has an attachment to mix ingredients for that. Felt a little overwhelmed unboxing it, lots of parts. But they are labeled. Take your time to read up on how it works and you will be just fine. Be patient learning to use the device and it will serve you well. Overall fairly impressed and appreciate the versatility this offers. This was my first food processor and so far I am pretty happy with it.

Been wanting to try and make veggie noodles for a while now. So I was excited to try out the Ninja Precision Food Processor. Let me tell you it makes it super easy to do with this machine. Just pop in the blade of the auto spiralizer and pop the top on and insert your vegetables and that’s all! There’s also the food processor cup where you can process your normal foods. It has 4 super sharp blades and is just as easy to use as the auto spiralizer. The processor base is 400 Watts. It comes with a chopping blade assembly, dough blade, spaghetti blade disc, fettuccine blade disc, cleaning brush and a recipe book. With this machine I can attempt to cook more healthy!

I love this machine. I have not even used it to its fullest yet and I already love it. I have a ninja blender already and glad to be able to add this to the mix. powerful and more handy to have then I thought. I recommend this brand for sure. I hope to get to put it to its fullest test like make peanut butter and things but I am sure it will handle that just fine. but its nice to get a block of cheese and slice. It came with a few slicer wheels but it has more for it. I wish they would just include it all. but other then that love everything with it so far.

I was quite amazed and excited when I opened the box to see this mid-sized food processor. We've always purchased the typical tiny food processors and always disappointed with the lack of power or wished the size is slightly bigger. Ninja basically solved all these problems. It comes with three attachments for dough, shred/spiralizers, and chopper. It is easy to clean and you can throw everything in the dishwasher. The 400 watt motor is not noisy and powerful. Definitely worth the investment to replace the old small chopper in your kitchen cabinet.

I decided to try out this product because I already have a large food processor of a different brand. It works well, but I wanted a smaller model for those smaller jobs that wouldn’t be a pain to clean. After my experience with two previous Shark/Ninja products I chose this. I really like my Shark Vacuum and my Ninja blender will leave my hands after I draw my last breath. I was unsure if the stringer blades would be of use to me or not, but figured what the heck. I’ll give it a try, and if I don’t care for that feature I’ll still have a smaller food processor that would hopefully be easier to manage and clean than my behemoth. After unboxing (and being raised in a germ-o-phobic German Catholic household) I wanted to give all the parts a good wash before using. This brought about my first disappointment. The cylinder that is used when stringing/shredding veggies has a three lobed guide that runs down into it to stabilize your potatoes, zucchini, cucumbers and the like as you shred. It is non-removable which makes it very difficult to clean. They do include a brush to assist with the job, but I feel strongly that this part should twist off for much easier cleaning. As a food processor, my first trial was with some fresh roasted pumpkin. The holidays are coming and I like to have a good stash in the freezer for making breads, pies, etc. Due to it size, your average sugar pumpkin will need to be done in 2-3 batches. Totally within my expectations. On the first batch, I think I had it a bit overloaded. The Ninja has plenty of power to puree anything, but if you get too much pumpkin in it you might have a couple of chunks that wind up “floating” on top of the load and have to push them down and restart. After that it was smooth sailing…..and velvety smooth pumpkin puree. So then I washed up the lower processor portion and got ready to string up some zucchini. You attach the lower bin, slide in the receiving cup, set the blade disc on that and then attach the upper column with its hard to clean lobes. It zipped right through the zucchini creating spaghetti-like strands in an instant. With its capacity, you’ll likely fill the receiving cup after one average sized zucchini and that’s to be expected. I tossed the strands with a little vinegar, sugar and steak spice; then placed in the refrigerator overnight to flavor. The next day I had a delicious and healthy “Spaghetti Salad”. Nom nom nom. In summary, as a smaller capacity food processor this thing rocks! The Ninja does a very good job at stranding veggies also. And it does both at a reasonable price point. The only real drawback is the clean-ability of the veggie chute. I strongly believe that a twist and lock removable top would be a huge benefit.

I love Ninja products. I have never purchased anything I was not highly satisfied with and this food processor was no exception! I was so excited to make veggie noodles and was thrilled to find how easy they were! The parts assemble very easily, the actual processing of the food is smooth, quick and easy and clean up only took a few minutes. The suction cups on the bottom are so helpful at keeping it in its place. I love how responsive the processor is - it really allowed me to control the consistency of everything I made.

Let me start by saying that I've never owned a food processor before. I do own a Ninja blender and have found Ninja products to be very well built. The food processor is no exception. The build quality is excellent and it has a lot of power. The pieces fit together very well. Everything snaps together very tightly. Other than for cleaning, it is very safe to use. Be careful when cleaning the blades. If you are looking for countertop kitchen appliances, I would highly recommend this Ninja food processor.

The Ninja Food Processor is a little daunting when first unboxed because of so many attachments and available options for use in the directions, so you'll have to do some reading before using it. However within a few minutes of possession it all becomes crystal clear. Then you find that this food processor is the perfect kitchen partner, not only significantly shortening food preparation time over other food processors or no processor at all, but also allowing you to make things otherwise not possible without it; foods can be cut into decorative shapes like flowers etc. etc., for having company over. The Ninja Food Processor is quiet during use and is very easy to clean, but you have to be careful because the blades are extremely sharp. The Unit is seemingly very well built, indicating that it will last a long time in heavy use. There's even little suction cups on the bottom so unlike other food processors that tend to want to move around on your countertops during use, this one stays firmly put while in use. With Christmas coming up we will be purchasing a couple more of these Units as gifts. Excellent value for the money spent.

Didnt like this wasn't a good buy, found one better.

We have a old hand punch chopper that works good but thought we would try a electric chopper/ dicer. This thing is so powerful it could chop a bag of bolts into metal shavings in a matter of seconds (not recommended). It is actually too powerful to get nice chopped up veggies. With just a couple pulses I turned a handful of baby carrots into carrot mush. I also had some leftover cabbage that i thought I might slice up to make slaw but this Ninja ripped through that and turned it into rice size pieces of cabbage. After realizing this thing is not a finesse style chopper/ slicer I tried a smoothie. added fruit, some veggies and a little yogurt and juice and I had a pulp free smoothie in a matter of seconds. I can also see where this would come in handy for making salsa or guacamole. But if you are looking to slice things into nice bite size pieces, don't use it or you will be drinking your snacks. I thought I would have no use for the spiralizer attachment but got the idea to try zucchini pasta. It was awesome. It made spaghetti like strands of zucchini which we cooked with some olive oil and shrimp. I will definitely try some more veggie pasta in the future.

I was really looking forward to this and thought my healthy-living wife would love it, but ultimately we were both disappointed. And I don’t mean to be harsh on the product, It looked good on paper, but after several attempts to use the NN310 it came across as being only so-so at its advertised tasks and ultimately not worth the cost or effort. Though not the featured capability, the precision processor ended up proving the most useful to us, but even that was mostly limited to things we really want to pulverize. The NN310 has no speed adjustments, just on, off, or pulse. Personally I found that insufficient for reliable results of the expected shredded-ness. One or two pulses was rarely enough, and a 3rd pulse proved often to take things just a bit too far -- I just found myself consistently getting too little or too much shred/chop to justify the effort of even trying to use the NN310. No doubt it was powerful and fast, once setup, but the end result could hardly be said to be saving us any time as we could easily more precisely cut the veggies by hand than the unpredictable result we got with the NN310. I actually found myself throwing some of the resultant veggies away or trying to feed them to our kids’ guinea pig because the result wasn’t close enough to what we wanted to achieve. Again, good on paper and in pincriple, but the only thing I can see the processor being reliably good for is salsa, smoothie-esque mixes, or anything else you literally want to beat/blend to a pulp. But if you’re going for just “chopped” or something in-between -- good luck -- I just couldn’t get that result reliably and it was more effort and time trying to prep, clean, and bend the NN310 to my will than it was to just chop the veggies by hand in the first place. The spiralizer -- in promo videos this looks cool but, again, I could not get reliably usable results. I usually ended up with crescent shaped shreds rather than anything resembling a connected spiral/noodle. I tried potatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, cucumbers, carrots, etc. I got a better sense of the needed pressure as I used it but even so the results were just not that good and I ended up frustrated and tossing out quite a bit of veggie waste. And the amount of time it took to setup the spiralizer, prepare the veggie/fruit to be the right size, spiralize, remove, rinse, and repeat… for each component (that’s what the manual suggests) proved to be pretty cumbersome overhead for a task as seemingly simple as just spiralizing some veggies. I’ll continue to try to find some use for this but after just a couple of days my wife had relegated the NN310 to the dark back corner of the bottom cupboard shelf -- the place where unused kitchen appliances go that seem too good to throw away but are too useless to actually keep handy. The NN310 seems an awkward attempt to create a small niche food processor and spiralizer that just ends up getting in its own way more than it actually helps with the desired task. Except for pulverizing things to paste in the processor bowl, there was never a time we used the NN310 feeling like we had actually saved any time or even achieved what we had set out to achieve. It came with a dough blade as well, and maybe that is something the NN310 would be good at, but that’s not a feature we were looking for or even tried.

This is my first food processor so I have no perspective on how this compares to other similar devices. I am unimpressed with the frilly veggie options - this feature serves no purpose to me as I usually cook for myself and I never cook "fancy". This is sized well, with the smaller attachment that fits on the top, for a single person. Again, I have no idea if this does a better or worse job than a competitor, but it worked as expected (with a little practice). The good news is that this takes up little counter space. I see no real negatives to this but there isn't something the blows me away that it does well. This does come with a "recipe" book but I was surprised there was nothing about salsa - one of the reasons that I secured this was a curiosity of making fresh salsa.

First of all I am very impressed with simplicity of its design. Very easy to use, no more fiddling with multiple buttons to make your choice. Just press one of the desired 2 buttons and you are done! Though it is easy to use, it comes with few short comings. While using spiralizer, be ready to either waste a lot of veggies, or make sure you prepare another dish with chopped veggies of the same kind. If you can be that creative its worth it. Otherwise, it only looks good on food channel as if you don't care about throwing money away with wasted food. Shark already suggests you to chop off / trim off a good amount of vegetables in order to fit in to the spiralizer. Now after processing, push in attachment holds about half inch thick vegetable from each piece. Once you accumulate the remains, it looks like at least 20% of it get wastes including the chopped / trimmed off portion. I won't bother to knead dough with a 400W motor. Its too much pressure for the motor and you can only knead a small portion of dough. Thought it's a creative piece of machine, day to day usage is not practical especially with the amount of veggies going to get wasted. Despite off the short comings, I would recommend Ninja - Precision Processor if you are a food channel enthusiast or a creative cook.

This Ninja set is the usual well-built sturdy, easy-to-clean countertop appliance that this company is known for. The newer models are moving away from the motor-on-top design. This one has a solid base with a powerful 400 watt motor. It is very easy to put the two base bowls on and off into locked and unlocked positions. Both the regular chop/process bowl and the spiralizer bowl has a quick-release button to unlock and lock the tops for easy access. The chop section top has a little port to add fluids to without having to remove the top. There are seperate push buttons on the base for pulse and steady motor control. Of course the chop/process bowl and blades do the usual fast and efficient work on your ingredients. That bowl has an included dough-mixing non-metal "blade" for mixing and making dough. Butter added had to be quite soft as with even the power of the Ninja motor it was unable to "whip" butter that was still semi-hard from being in the freezer. I'm thinking it's more suited to adding dough ingredients a little at a time. The spiralizer was pretty easy to use and made short work of a few carrots. The unit comes with two "blade" discs, one for spaghetti-sized "noodles" and one for fettuccine size. There are other size blades available. The carrot spirals made with the spaghetti blade were rather short (maybe 2") when compared to the ones you might get on the side of your plate at a Thai place, but it worked well and worked quickly. I am looking forward to making hash browns with raw potato spirals.

Summary: A well-made food chopper, with two main modes of use - a regular chopper, and a "spiralizer" that makes, basically, spaghetti out of your vegetables. While the chopper is pretty standard, the spiralizer is lots of fun to play with and makes attractive-looking "pasta" out of your vegetables. Overall, sharper, faster and tougher than several other choppers I've used. Introduction: I've used several choppers and food processors over the years, including Black & Decker, Cuisinart and Pampered Chef. Up until I got the 'Ninja', the Pampered Chef hand chopper was actually my favorite - it was small, easy-to-use, and super-easy to clean up (toss the bucket and the blade in the dishwasher and get on with things). The good: The bins, blades and tops are all well-made and solid. When used as a chopper, the Ninja chops things pretty fine - think brunoise or minced, not chopped or diced. This is something to keep in mind, because this particular kit only comes with one blade set, so there isn't an option to get larger cuts from it. The good news is that it minces quickly and consistently - one of the gripes I've had with other food processors is that the cut pieces are inconsistently sized; not an issue here. Also works well for making fruit smoothies, though I don't recommend putting frozen fruit in there - it makes a terrible noise (and will dent your blades). When used as a spiralizer, well, that's where the fun starts. This kit comes with two of the spiralizing blades, "spaghetti" and "fettuccini." Either one will fill the bin with strings of vegetable that, frankly, look and cook just like pasta. My first experiment was with zucchini, which it cheerfully "spiralized" with the skin on; I've subsequently used it with sweet potatoes and butternut squash (make sure to remove the skin first!) with great success. The bad: The collecting bin for spiralizing could stand to be bigger - basically, it really limits how much of a vegetable you can spiralize at once. Figure a 3" inch section of zucchini or whatever you're spiralizing will fill the bin, forcing you to take the top off, remove the blade plate, dump the bin, and re-assemble. Spiralizing always leaves a small section of un-sliced vegetable behind, which has to be removed before the next piece can be chopped. Ninja makes six different spiralizing blades, but you only get two in this set.

Bottom line: The Ninja Precision Processor with Spiralizer easily takes care of small to medium sized jobs and fits in any kitchen. Pros: can accomplish a wide variety of food prep tasks, powerful, easy to clean, small size fits in any kitchen Cons: loud, easy to “over-process” food, bowl could use a handle Review: My wife is a vegetarian, so we were very excited to replace our manual spiralizer with the Ninja. The machine made short work of turning zucchini into fettuccini, and it was actually a lot of fun. We did have to empty the bowl a couple of times to make enough for our family, but that’s a trade-off for a smaller machine. Despite its size, the Ninja offers an incredible amount of power and can handle a wide variety of tasks. After dinner, we made some hummus to eat with chips, and it was really convenient to be able to drizzle in the oil as we processed the chick peas. Cleanup is a breeze as we rinsed off the big food chunks in the sink and threw all the pieces in the dishwasher. One thing to keep in mind is that everything you put in the processor is going to get sliced twice in a single pass due to the tiered blade system. My first attempt at making chunky salsa, for instance, ended up as tomato puree. Overall, if you’re looking for a small, yet powerful food processor and/or spiralizer, the Ninja Precision Processor will save you kitchen space and time with your meal prep.

We like to cook - correction - my wife loves to cook, and she is very pleased with this food processor. Easy setup, easy cleaning, easy to use, works like a charm for us. Compare the features to your needs, but you really can't go wrong with anything from the Ninja line of products. At this rate, our kitchen will look like a dojo soon.
