There are a lot of different things to think about before committing to purchasing a new food processor. Some machines chop food and that's about all they do. Others do a whole host of different tasks. There are machines available that can replace your mixer, juicer, slicer, grater and several other machines.
The first thing you need to do when considering a new machine is to just ask yourself what you want to do with it. If all you want to do is to chop up a few vegetables every once in a great while, then just get a cheap one. If you're someone who really likes to cook and try new things with your cooking, then one with several varied features is probably for you.

The food processors that can do different tasks are so versatile because they come with interchangeable blades. You use one blade to grate cheese for example, and then you change blades to chop tomatoes. You would use another blade to mix dough for homemade tortillas. With the more versatile machines, one machine can make a whole taco dinner. Whereas if you just had a cheaper machine, you would actually need several machines to get the job done.
Some food processors have better quality motors than others too. If you only want to use your machine occasionally, again you can just get a cheap one. If you actually want to use it a lot, however, getting one with a commercial quality motor is probably a good idea. It will last longer and do a better job while you're using it. You'll ultimately be happier with a better quality machine.
