Chop Wizard

Product Information

This electric chopper has a 3.5 cup capacity, but it's important to note that you cannot fill this unit to capacity with liquids as it will cause an overflow. Also, the plastic container is more prone to scratches than some other models, so take care when cleaning the unit and avoid any scrubbing pads that may cause scuffing. Pros: Alternatively, because the plastic surroundings mean you never have to touch the blade with your hands, you can also easily clean the Vidalia Chop Wizard manually using hot water, washing liquid, and a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. Specifications The downside to such a versatile vegetable chopper is that it takes up a lot of counter or cabinet space. The blades and storage holders unfortunately do not fit inside the Mueller Austria Onion Chopper base during storage. In addition, the chopping lid is a bit bulky and there is no separate lid included, which would be very handy for storing chopped ingredients in the refrigerator. Pros: This clever onion chopper from Kuhn Rikon is quite the piece of engineering! This unit functions in the same way as an electric food processor, but without the electricity. A pull cord in the lid masterfully transforms the power of your hands into the spinning action of 2 independently moving stainless steel blades within the chopping container.

The makers of the Vidalia Chop Wizard have, yet again, anticipated this problem and provided a solution in the form of a cleaning fork. Once you place the ingredient to be chopped on the blade grid, you just close the lid over and press down firmly and evenly. The force of your push causes the food to pass through the sharp knife grid and fall into the container below. The simplicity and effectiveness of this device earns it a well-deserved spot on our list of best onion choppers. Features of the Oxo Good Grips Vegetable and Onion Chopper: Once you’ve got rid of any stubborn remnants, you can put the blade and all other parts of the Chop Wizard in your dishwasher for a hands-free cleaning, since this product is conveniently dishwasher safe. At only ½ cup, the capacity of the Fullstar Vegetable Chopper is rather small, meaning you'll likely have to transfer your ingredients to a larger vessel as you work. The unit can be used directly on a cutting board, or you can attach the included bottom lid to the chopping base. However, the lid is not perfect in its seal, and therefore could be a bit messy for chopping soft vegetables such as tomatoes. Pros:

This helps to chop onions and other ingredients evenly with no twisting or turning needed on your part. The blade is also encased in a housing which protects fingers during use.

Measurement indicators are even marked on the tray for an accurate estimation of quantities up to 2 cups! Manual onion choppers rely on good ol' muscle power to carry out the chopping process.
