Food processors, mixers and kitchen prep tools worth a look

Food processors chop, slice and grate in seconds. A stand mixer handles cake batters and bread dough, and a good hand blender covers soups and sauces with less washing up.

Tip: think about storage first. A compact processor or hand blender with attachments may suit a small kitchen better than a large stand mixer.
