Q: Is this product free of PFOA, PFAS, PTFE ? I’m surprised no one asked this question.

submitted by Sonia S - 2 years ago

  • A: BPA free items may still contain other bisphenols line BPS. BPA free does NOT mean the item is free of forever chemicals which in general are called PFAS ( PTFE and PFOA are specific kinds of PFAS).

Q: Can you use this to grind up sprouted chia and flax seeds?

submitted by PandaTwinMama - 6 months ago

Q: Does it grind onion chunks to a more liquid substance?

submitted by Veronica - 8 months ago

  • A: Yes, the Cuisinart Core 3 Cup Mini Chopper (CCH-3) is capable of grinding onion chunks into a more paste-like substance. This is because the machine includes a dedicated purée function designed for soft foods. However, for blending, please take a look at our immersion and countertop blender options.

    Mini chopper excellence

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a regular size Cuisinart food processor and love it for pie crust and larger food prep. The 3 cup mini chopper is used everyday for onions, garlic, peppers and breadcrumbs. Even home gardener dried herb grinding. Love the size and easy to clean ...

    Time saver

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not sure why I never had one of these for the past 20 years. Saves time chopping the little things and things you do not want to get your hands in, like chilies.

    Powerful Mini Chopper

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this mini food processor. It easily chops vegetables, nuts, herbs, sauces, and tomatoes. Far more efficient than previous mini choppers that I have owned. It provides a consistent even chop. If you have arthritis in your hands, you will find it easy to attach and use. It is durable, easy to clean, assemble and use.

This 3 cup chopper does a great job on garlic onions and much more. It cleans up easily and doesn't take much room on your counter top. I use it practically everyday. I highly recommend it.

    Do you want to cook or manage machinery?

    I have an old CuisinArt mini-chopper which I hardly ever use. It always takes at least 10 and maybe 20 minutes to seat the cup properly and lock it in. I am still trying to decide whether I got a dud which should be replaced, or just live without one. Less appliances might simply be better.

    3 cup mini chopper

    I do like my mini chopper. The only criticism I have is the handle was replaced with a plastic lip. I was a little concerned with the size of this “handle” , works ok but I do like the handle on my previous Cuisinart 3 cup chopper better.
