Amazon.com Review
Ideal for small jobs like soups, sauces, dips, and salad dressings, this 2-cup, 120-watt food processor chops, minces, mixes, slices, and shreds vegetables, batters, nuts, herbs, and bread crumbs. It has a 2-cup bowl, offers two speeds and a pulse control, and comes with a continuous-flow chute for shredding cabbage and other foods in bulk. Not including the chute, the processor is a compact 10-1/2 inches high, 5-1/2 inches wide, and 9-inches deep. All the removable parts, including the reversible, stainless-steel slicing/shredding disk, are dishwasher-safe. The processor carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

 Skip it July 7, 2008

At the time it was the only small electric shredder I could find, and I've used this item for over a year, but I can't say I like it one bit.
Its primary role has been to shred carrots. As others have noted, the shreds fly everywhere unless you very carefully cup your hand around the spout. That's assuming you can get the carrots to shred. The unit is designed in such a way that often the carrots or pieces (you usually need to cut them to get them in the tube) will catch in the space between the tube and the blade. It's a hassle to have to fish those parts out and try again. And eventually, pressing carrots down to shred leads to a bent, then broken blade.
My previous mini-food processor handled this work for years before it faded. The B&D unit is a great example of poor design and poor quality materials.
did B&D even test this thing? March 17, 2008

I've had this little thing forever - but I only use the chopping blade. Did they even TRY shredding a carrot..cheese....anything? Because I gotta tell you, I make my living as a personal chef, so I'm pretty handy when it comes to familiarizing myself with culinary appliances; I just though maybe I mixed up some parts from some other appliance, or wasn't assembling it correctly. The shredder/slicer attachment is so faulty that's it's actually kind of funny (only after you've lassoed the shreds of kamikaze cheddar that stormed the counter, floor, and pretty much anywhere BUT the bowl and recovered from a brief spell of vertigo as a result). Um....don't get it? yeah - don't get it.
Terrible!! October 14, 2007

This thing is terrible. As others have said, food chute is too small. You have to pre-chop everything to fit it in. And food sprays all over the place. Shred cheese? Not a chance. You'll end up with tiny balls of cheese that get mashed around on the inside. B&D has NEVER tested this product, otherwise it would not be on store shelves.
Oh, and if you have any light-sleepers in the house, I wouldn't turn this on. It is INSANELY loud. It can wake up my 1 yr old, while he's sleeping upstairs.
Did I mention the blades are about as sharp as a butter knife?
Waste of money!!! May 30, 2007

I used to have a Hamilton Beach mini processor, and when it finally died, I got this one. I mainly use it to make pesto and cheese dip. Neither cubed cheese or basil leaves will chop in this machine. The blades cnnot standup to anything stiffer than cooked carrots, and it Doesn;t chop to anything resembling uniform. Glad I only spent $15, b/c this is going in the TRASH!
What a dissapointment! June 20, 2006

I've owned Black and Decker's predecessor to this unit - the ShortCut - for about 25 years. It was a well designed Mini food processor. So I had high hopes for the Black & Decker MFP200 MiniPro Plus Food Processor. What a disappointment!
The problem is slicing. The slicing disk *MUST* be used in conjunction with a "redirection disk" that redirects whatever your slicing out the "ejection chute". Well this chute ejects alrighty - all over the kitchen.
It goes back to Target tomorrow. And to the design folks over at B & D: you should really test out your designs before going to production with them.
Do yourself a *HUGE* favor and pass on this unit.
I have to go now; I have mushroom slices all over my kitchen.
