The Paradice 9 brings professional-grade food preparation into a compact, kitchen-friendly design. Everything you need lives neatly inside the bowl: dicing kit, S-blade, reversible shredder, adjustable slicer, and dough blade, all colour-coded for easy access. The brushless induction motor delivers 650W of high-torque power to handle everything from soft herbs to tough root vegetables without breaking a sweat. With a 2-in-1 wide feed chute that adapts to different shapes and sizes, you'll prep faster and with more precision than chopping by hand. It's the kind of machine that makes repetitive kitchen tasks feel less like a chore and more like having an extra pair of hands.
- Integrated storage caddy: All five accessories (dicing kit, S-blade, reversible shredder, adjustable slicer, dough blade) store neatly inside the bowl for organised, space-saving convenience.
- Paradice dicing kit: Creates precise 12mm cubes in a single push with the wide feed chute, delivering consistent results for even cooking and professional presentation.
- Brushless induction motor: Delivers 650W of high-torque power with direct drive, tackling tough jobs like nut grinding and dough mixing without strain.
- 2-in-1 wide feed chute: Accommodates different shapes and sizes, from whole apples to bulky vegetables, reducing prep time and handling steps.
- BPA-free impact-resistant bowl: Dishwasher-safe construction with stainless steel housing stands up to everyday use, drops, and thermal shock.
What Customers Ask About This Product
How much does it hold?
The bowl capacity is 9 cups, which is generous enough for most family-sized meals and batch cooking. For larger quantities, you may need to work in batches, but the compact footprint means it won't hog your worktop space.
Does it really dice vegetables that neatly?
Yes, the 12mm Paradice Kit produces consistent cubes in a single push when you use the wide feed chute. Even dicing is the key to even cooking and great taste, so this is a proper feature rather than marketing fluff.
Can I use it for dough?
The dough blade is included, and the motor's high torque handles dough mixing easily. It's useful for small to medium batches, though for large-scale bread making you might prefer a stand mixer.
What's the motor warranty like?
Sage backs the motor with a 30-year warranty, which tells you something about their confidence in the engineering. The rest of the processor has a standard 2-year product warranty.
In our experience...
The storage caddy is genuinely clever design. Storing five different blades and accessories inside the bowl means you're not hunting through drawers or cluttering the cupboard. The colour coding makes it obvious which tool does what, which matters when you're in a rush and reaching for the right blade.
A proper dicing kit saves you time and effort. Hand-dicing vegetables is slow and uneven. A good dicing kit that produces consistent results in one push transforms how you prep for cooking. It matters more than you'd think when you've got roots, peppers, or onions to process.
The wide feed chute means less prep work. You can feed in whole vegetables without chopping them down first. Less knife work before the machine work means fewer opportunities to have an accident, and the whole task moves faster.
Brushless motors are worth the investment. They're quieter, more efficient, and more durable than brushed motors because there's less friction and wear. The direct drive adds torque, so the machine handles tough jobs without bogging down or overheating.
Compact size is both a strength and a trade-off. The Paradice 9 is genuinely small, which means it lives on your worktop rather than in a cupboard. The trade-off is that the 9-cup capacity means batch work for large meal preparations, but for most households, that's a fair compromise.

Care & Use Instructions
Cleaning the bowl and lid: The bowl and lid are dishwasher safe. For the housing and motor unit, wipe down with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Never immerse the motor housing in water.
Cleaning the blades and accessories: Most accessories are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is gentler and helps them last longer. Dry immediately after washing to prevent water spots on the stainless steel.
Storage: Store all accessories in the integrated caddy inside the bowl. This keeps everything organised, protects the blades from damage, and makes them easy to find when you need them.
Motor and housing care: Keep the motor unit away from water and store in a cool, dry place. Wipe the stainless steel housing occasionally with a soft cloth to maintain its finish.
