Our take
The BLACK+DECKER FP1800B is a documented 8-cup processor with one work bowl, feed chute, pusher, stainless chopping blade, slice/shred disc and On/pulse operation. That combination puts it between compact choppers and the 9-cup-and-up models selected for the family-batch filter. It is a meaningful option for someone who wants a standard feed-tube appliance but does not need the largest bowl in the category. The evidence does not map the historical Amazon ASIN to a current offer. This assessment uses the saved model manual, not personal testing.
A shopper seeking a mid-size powered processor with ordinary disc work who does not need a second bowl or a confirmed dough tool..
Skip it if you need a confirmed bowl of nine cups or more, a separate mini bowl, or a dedicated dough blade in the documented package.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What the features mean for you
A mid-size 8-cup work bowl
The BLACK+DECKER use-and-care book names the FP1800B and identifies its bowl as an 8-cup work bowl. This is above the small-batch group defined here as five cups or less, but below the nine-cup threshold used for a family-size requirement. The numeric label is useful for choosing an approximate scale; it is not a promise that every recipe should be filled to that volume. The manual remains the authority for assembly and operating limits. This position gives the FP1800B a distinct role between mini choppers and larger processors. [bowlCapacityCups]
Feed tube, chopping blade and disc work
The model-specific parts list names a feed chute and pusher, stainless chopping blade and a slice/shred disc. That is a broader documented set than a bowl-only chopper. The source supports the functions, not a particular cut quality, throughput, or speed claim. A shopper who wants to prepare ingredients with a disc can compare the FP1800B with larger models, while someone whose routine is only mincing a few items may prefer a smaller vessel. Confirm that the disc and stem are present in the seller's exact package, particularly for used equipment. [sliceShred]
Controls and included-part boundaries
The FP1800B manual describes an On control and a pulse mode that runs while held. It documents one work bowl and does not identify a separate mini bowl or a dedicated dough blade in the listed kit. Those are useful boundaries: other processors that share a brand name can have different bowl counts and attachments, and their features should not be imported here. In a spec questionnaire, the model can meet a documented slicing/shredding requirement, but a buyer needing a second bowl or dough tool should require model-specific package evidence.

Keep it separate from the FP1300 family
The frozen candidate list also contains a separate BLACK+DECKER FP1300 family with its own source history. Both names are associated with an eight-cup scale, but the model codes differ and the saved evidence does not establish common hardware or interchangeable parts. This review covers FP1800B only. The historic ASIN is not treated as a verified current Amazon product mapping, so the purchase link searches for the exact model. A shopper should check the label and the included disc set rather than relying on a generic 8-cup title. [bowlCapacityCups]
Who should compare this model
FP1800B makes sense as a comparison for a household that wants a general-purpose bowl, a chopping blade and ordinary slicing/shredding discs without jumping to a large 11- or 14-cup machine. Its limitations are equally concrete: it has one documented bowl, no dedicated dough blade in the manual's kit, and no exact historical-ASIN crosswalk. The assessment does not claim current stock, price, popularity, buyer satisfaction, reliability or personal test results. Use the manual for setup and loading, then verify the seller's condition and model plate before purchase. [bowlCapacityCups, sliceShred]
What else to compare
For a compact 3-cup press-top chopper compare Hamilton Beach 72850; for 13-cup slicing and shredding compare Cuisinart FP-130AG.
Before you buy
How much does the FP1800B bowl hold?
BLACK+DECKER's FP1800B manual identifies an 8-cup work bowl; use the manual's operating directions for recipe loading rather than treating that as a universal fill limit.
Does FP1800B include a slicing and shredding tool?
Its model parts list names a slice/shred disc with the feed chute and pusher; check that those pieces are included in a used or renewed package.
Is FP1800B the same processor as FP1300?
No shared hardware is established. They are separately identified model families, so their package details and model evidence must remain distinct.
