Great Food Chopper for the price
KitchenAid brand has created a very nice Food Chopper – this unit isn’t too big or small and can handle any chopping you need to do. It can chop or puree which is a nice feature.. easy to clean and set up and doesn’t take up too much space on the counter. Works well and doesn’t make a lot of noise when using. Highly recommend

Great for smaller processing needs
This 5 cup food processor is perfect for making homemade seasonings and I love that I control the speed and function. You simply push down on the lid to make it go. I wish I had used it for more things but I just got it and wanted to jump on here and leave a review. I had been looking for a smaller processor without the vegetable shoot because I don’t have the room and I found this. I started out with a 3.5 cup but then decided to go bigger because I loved how well the smaller one worked. It might be small but it works really well. One thing to note is that it will not process peppercorns (I was going to make lemon pepper) very well because they are so hard, even after smashing them but it minces, chops and purées wonderfully. I haven’t tried liquids in it yet so I’ll come back later to update my review once I have used it for that.

great little product!
I bought this to use in my RV as its small size is easy to stow. Chops quickly and evenly so does the job. I appreciate that it’s 5 cups instead of three cups, so I can chop more. They accomplish this with a taller bin. I worried that the tall size would affect chopping efficiency, but it’s not an issue. It works so well, I use it at home. Why use this over my full size food processor? With my big unit, all the bowls, lids, and blades fill up my dishwasher, while the parts from this only take up a small space in the dishwasher drawer. Some notes about how this works: You twist on the bowl, drop in the spindle, slip the blade over the spindle, then twist on the lid. A lever on the side is marked “chop” and “pulse” but it’s actually low speed/high speed. To activate, you press a tab on top of the handle; hold to spin, tap to pulse. You get two processing attachments which fit over the spindle: a metal cutting blade and a plastic disk (used for emulsifying stuff like salad dressings. It works well.) There’s a slot at the base where you can wrap the cord in a tidy way. Overall, a great product.

Good Product
My Wife Loves thus little thing. She was looking for a small chopper, I researched this one was very familiar with this Excellent Brand, so I ordered it, Absolutely does everything the description says, especially like the wrap around cord, easy to just leave on the counter top. Which is something she usually doesn’t like to do. She has used several times since arrived, to be sure she was a bit skeptical at first. But after the first time she used it, to chop some pecans, she was hooked. Since she has used it to make Guacamole, Humice(?), (not sure how that’s spelled ).Regardless My wife Love’s her new toy. Before she was using another brand ,which was much bigger and too large to leave on the counter top. Yes , I made some good points, with this one. She’s very pleased with it. One thing I would like to comment on the Lid, removal and replacement, it’s very simple, just read the instructions carefully. Only a light pressure is needed to remove and replace it. Just slides from one side to the other. Hope this helps Someone on the Fence. Jump on in the chopping is fine..Ok one more thing, as for noise, it’s average when it comes any chopping appliance. On the Puree setting it’s a little louder, but you don’t need any hearing protection..LOL THAT’S all Folks. Enjoy…

Works well, but leaks at the lid
Perfect size, easy to use, easy to clean, blends well, but there is some leaking around the lid even after it’s closed and locked.

Food Chopper
Wonderful small food chopper. I used this immediately and found it to be durable, powerful and great looking as well. The speed is great, but lockability was difficult.

Very Useful
For years, I had a food processor that sat idle most of the time (primarily because it was a pain to clean) so I gave it away. However, I wound up deciding that something with similar functionality was needed but on a smaller scale. Of course it had to be super easy to clean, too. The Kitchen Aid Food Chopper fits the bill perfectly and I use it all the time. Great value for the money.

Everything looks great, exactly as expected! I haven’t tried it yet cuz I’m not ready. The reason I bought it was I can no longer use my right arm so if I want to cook ever again I need electric/preferably cordless 😉 appliances, small appliances that is.

The first one had a battery problem and couldn’t recharge. KitchenAid asked me to contact a local service company but didn’t have a response. So I requested Amazon to replace a new one and get an answer immediately even though I dropped the original box. So now I have a new one, and it works very well. Excellent Amazon customer service.
