In food preparation processing, the first fork in the road is whether you need to cut or mix. The Fii Model K8700 is a continuous-feed processor built for volume dicing, grating, and slicing. The 12Qt 2-Speed Commercial Food Mixer is a freestanding electric unit aimed at dough and mixing. Both handle real work, but they solve different problems. Here's how to pick the one that matches your actual prep queue.
Quick Verdict
Pick the Fii K8700 when your day is full of vegetables, cheese, and produce that need to become uniform pieces. Pick the 12Qt 2-Speed Mixer when dough, pizza rounds, or bakery mixing are what slow you down. The Fii costs USD 152.10; the mixer costs USD 372.10. If cutting prep is the bottleneck, the extra $220 is hard to justify. If mixing is the bottleneck, the mixer is the workhorse.

Where Each Product Wins
Fii Model K8700 wins if... You need to process large amounts of produce with consistent cuts. The continuous-feed design lets you keep feeding items through while the interchangeable blades handle dicing, grating, and slicing. It also carries a lower listed price, which matters when you're equipping a station without a big budget.
12Qt 2-Speed Mixer wins if... Your bottleneck is dough. The 750W copper-core motor delivers two speeds for kneading and mixing, and the freestanding design sits on a counter without extra mounting. A 360° mixing angle helps get the bowl thoroughly worked. This is a new unit, which may matter if you want equipment that hasn't been in a previous kitchen.
Product Notes
#### Fii Model K8700 Commercial Food Processor Dicer Grater Slicer Set - TESTED
The Fii K8700 is a used continuous-feed processor that arrives with multiple interchangeable blades, a collection bin, and the original instruction manual. It is described as preowned, lightly used, and tested working. If your prep list is built around dicing onions, grating cheese, and slicing vegetables, this machine can take over that repetitive work. It is not a mixer, so it won't knead dough or handle the mixing jobs the other machine is built for. And because it is a used unit, you are buying based on the described condition rather than a brand-new sealed machine. Choose it when cutting preparation is the main bottleneck and you want the lower of the two listed prices.
#### 12Qt 2-Speed Commercial Food Mixer Electric Dough Mixer Pizza Bakery Mixer 750W
The 12Qt 2-Speed mixer is a freestanding electric unit with a stainless steel 201 body, a 750W copper-core motor, and two rotation speeds (100/200r/min). Its 360° mixing angle lets the bowl tilt through the dough rather than leaving unmixed spots. This is a new unit, so you get equipment that hasn't been through someone else's kitchen. It comes with the dough-kneading machine, power cord, and English manual. The tradeoff is that it cannot dice, grate, or slice. If your menu also needs produce prep, you'd still need a separate cutting machine. Pick this one when dough is the bottleneck and you want a powerful, dedicated mixer for pizza, bread, or bakery work.
Final Choice by Use Case
Choose the Fii K8700 if your daily prep centers on cutting produce, cheese, and other ingredients into uniform pieces, especially if the used condition and lower price fit your setup. Choose the 12Qt 2-Speed Mixer if dough is the bottleneck and you need a new, freestanding unit with 750W of mixing power. If both stations are slow, the gap between the two prices is meaningful, but each machine covers a different part of prep. Match the machine to the task that actually slows your line.
