I don’t have any personal advice to offer but I have a consumer reports subscription so I pasted your message into the CR apps chat feature in case it might help you; here’s the response:

If you want a reliable food processor that can whip up hummus quickly and comes with multiple options or attachments—without sacrificing performance—we’ve got a few top picks from our latest CR tests.

Our staff consistently recommends the Cuisinart Pro Custom 11 DLC-8S. It has an 11-cup capacity, separate slicing and shredding discs, and excellent ratings for chopping, slicing, and shredding. It’s also quiet and dishwasher-safe, making cleanup easy. There were no notable flaws in its performance, and it’s built to last with a 3-year motor warranty.

If you want something with a few more bells and whistles, the Breville The Paradice 9 BFP638 offers a dough blade, dicing kit, and organizer, plus a 30-year motor warranty.

Both models are versatile, reliable, and should make hummus with ease. For more tips, check out our Food Processor & Chopper Buying Guide.
