FP940 series specifications

The Kenwood FP940 series is a versatile and powerful food processor designed to make food preparation faster and more efficient. Known for its robust build quality and user-friendly design, the FP940 is ideal for both amateur home cooks and professional chefs.

One of the key features of the Kenwood FP940 is its powerful motor, which operates at 1000 watts. This ample power allows for the processing of a variety of ingredients, from soft fruits and vegetables to tough nuts and grains. The motor is complemented by a high-capacity 4.5-liter bowl, which provides plenty of space for preparing large quantities of food at once, making it perfect for meal prep or hosting gatherings.

The FP940 comes equipped with multiple attachments and accessories that enhance its functionality. This includes a stainless-steel chopping blade for efficient chopping and blending; a dough tool for kneading bread and pastry; and a slicing and grating disc that allows for precise cuts, whether you need thin slices for salads or coarse grates for cheese. The versatility of these attachments essentially turns the food processor into a multi-functional kitchen appliance.

Another standout technology in the FP940 series is its variable speed control, which allows users to adjust the processing speed to suit different tasks. This feature is particularly helpful for achieving desired textures, whether you are puréeing soup or whipping cream. Additionally, the pulse function gives users complete control, ensuring that food is processed just the way they want it.

Safety is a priority in the design of the Kenwood FP940. It incorporates a safety interlock system, which prevents the motor from running when the bowl or lid is not securely in place. This provides peace of mind for users, especially in a busy kitchen environment.

The Kenwood FP940 series also boasts a stylish and practical design. Its compact size means it can fit easily on countertops, and the modern aesthetic complements any kitchen decor. The easy-to-clean surfaces and dishwasher-safe components ensure that maintaining the food processor is hassle-free.

In summary, the Kenwood FP940 series food processor combines power, versatility, and user-friendly features to deliver exceptional performance in the kitchen. With its robust motor, extensive accessories, variable speed settings, and focus on safety, it stands out as a valuable tool for anyone looking to elevate their culinary skills and simplify food preparation tasks.
