Hamilton Spiralizer vs Hamilton Bowl Scraper: 70735 cuts ribbons, 70730 keeps thick mixtures near the blade

What matters in practice
The differences that matter
No motor-rating advantage
The matching 450-watt labels give no reason to prefer either motor, so select the spiral cutters or bowl scraper for the prep task you repeat.
How we reached this conclusion
450 - 450 = 0 watts.
No nominal capacity advantage
Neither expands beyond ten nominal cups, so a bigger family batch needs a larger model rather than a swap between these two.
How we reached this conclusion
10 - 10 = 0 cups.
The extra tools cover different jobs
Spiralizing and bowl scraping are not interchangeable benefits.
How we reached this conclusion
70735 lists spiral and ribbon blades. 70730 lists a built-in scraper.

Meaningful differences
What changes the fit
| What changes | Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Spiralizing Food Processor | Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Food Processor with Bowl Scraper | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Special tool | Spiral and ribbon blades | Bowl scraper | The key difference is the preparation job. |
| Bowl | 10 cups with pour spout | 10 cups with scraper | Same volume with a different bowl workflow. |
| Vegetable shaping | Spiral and ribbon cuts | Ordinary chopping and disc cuts | Only 70735 creates the specialty shapes. |
| Moving sticky food inward | Pause and scrape as needed | Scrape with lid on | 70730 reduces lid removal for this task. |
What you give up
Every choice has a cost
If you choose Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Spiralizing Food Processor

If you choose Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Food Processor with Bowl Scraper
- The fixed disc and two speeds offer basic rather than fine-grained control.
Recommendation switch
The decision flips if...
Vegetable noodles and ribbons
Choose Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Spiralizing Food Processor. 70735 includes the specialty blades.
Frequent scraping during dip preparation
Choose Hamilton Beach 10 Cup Food Processor with Bowl Scraper. 70730 moves food from the wall with the lid on.
What matters in practice
How to make the call
The core specifications are tied
Both have ten-cup bowls, 450-watt motors and two speeds plus Pulse. Those numbers do not explain a preference between these two versions.
Choose the job-specific hardware
70735 adds spiral and ribbon blades. 70730 adds the scraper. These solve separate kitchen tasks, so the right choice depends on which attachment would leave the cabinet most often.
Produce shape still matters
Spiralizing calls for appropriately trimmed, straight produce. A nominal ten-cup bowl does not tell you whether a large or curved vegetable will fit the spiralizer opening.
What this comparison cannot tell you
- Manufacturer specifications establish equipment and capacity. Cooking or preparation outcomes have not been independently tested for this comparison.
