    So far so good

    I’ve tried it once to chop carrots. I dislike grating them so this was great.

    I'd give this 10 stars if I could!

    GREAT!!!! This has replaced my 35 year old Cuisinart large and small food processors. It is SIMPLE to use- just enough in size for the cooking I do these days. Pricepoint is great- load the food in, put on top and press. It's a workhorse. Cleanup is a breeze. If you're looking for a terrific addition (or replacement) in your food prep routines, you will not regret this!

    Powerful little chopper

    This food chopper is so powerful! I use it to chop all the nuts (pistachios, walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, etc.) I use for baking. I love how easy it is to use by pressing down on the lid which turns it on. I also really appreciate how easy it is to clean.

    Strong machine

    I had it for a week. It’s a strong machine. It’s difficult to have it chop vegetables into nice size pieces. It’s great if you want to use it for hummus type of preparations. Overall, I think I’m OK with the product. Maybe more useful will make me better at using it.

    Great Little Chopper

    I just bought up this chopper. I used it to chop a large bowl of shredded chicken for my dog's food add-in. This chopper worked great! Very quick. Very easy to use. Easy to clean. Hoping it will last a long time! So much easier than the 'other' brand I had been using.

    So powerful

    The product is good, but the problem is that it’s so powerful that it grinds so much that the onion turns into soup instead of just chopping it into small pieces.

    Good, Basic Chopper

    This is a good, basic chopper which I've used to chop a bell pepper and garlic cloves. It's easy to use and clean and is also great for turning a slice of bread into bread crumbs.

    I use it twice a week

    Takes a little practice to get to know the pulse. Very easy to puree if not careful. Do mostly celrey, onions, peppers, carrots. Be careful! Blade super sharp. Only 3 parts to easy clean and dry. Fantastic bang for the buck!
