Third-party reviews

What customers like about Philips 7000 Series HR7962

  • The 5.5 L bowl is big enough for a family batch.
  • The 1000 W motor is quick with bread dough, whipping and beating.
  • A food processor and a meat grinder come in the box.
  • A display and automatic shut-off take the guesswork out of timing.
  • The parts can go in the dishwasher.
  • At 17.6 cm deep it sits well back on a worktop.

What customers don't like about Philips 7000 Series HR7962

  • At 85 dB it is loud at higher speeds and on pulse.
  • It is bulky and takes up a lot of kitchen space.
  • At 6.72 kg it is heavy to lift out of a cupboard.
  • There is no pasta attachment, so fresh pasta needs another tool.
  • With so many attachments, there are more parts to store.

Verdict

If you want one machine for dough, chopping and mincing, the Philips 7000 Series HR7962 is built for that. It comes with a food processor and a meat grinder, which is less common, plus a dough hook and whisk. The 5.5 L bowl gives room for a family batch. In tests it was quick with bread dough, whipping and beating. A display and automatic shut-off mean you do not have to watch the clock. The build is solid metal, and the parts go in the dishwasher. The trade-off is noise and bulk. At 85 dB it gets loud on high speed and pulse, and it takes up a fair bit of worktop. It suits a busy household cook who wants attachments in one box and can live with some noise.
