I found this a few minutes ago in a dumpster. It is missing one foot, the top to the container, and something inside is broken and rattling around. It turns as it should and the plastic is in great shape. Does anybody know anything about it? Is it worth anything? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Probably made in the '80s, given the almond plastics and woodgrain decal. I bought one just like it, albeit complete, at Goodwill a few years ago for $8.00. It came with a chopper blade and cutting disk that sits up on a column so it's just below the lid. It has two inserts, one for slicing and one for shredding. It works pretty well.

I believe my mom had one just like it when I was little.
I doubt it's worth anything. But if you can find the lid, or a replacement, it'll probably be a robust food processor. You might look on ebay for just 'food processor work bowl' without a brand name and just look at pics and see if one looks like it'll fit. | ||

the main problem is the belts in these machines break.Esp if the processor is used to knead dough-don't use these HB machines-or the Sears look-a-like ones for kneading. | ||

Not to mention they are as loud as a jet engine. These machines use a blender type motor. The post for the slicing and shredding blades wear out where the post inserts in to the disk as well. I have a Cuisinart food processor. It is direct drive and very quiet motor. Very power full as well. | ||
