Vegetable Chopper Mandoline Slicer,Veggie Chopper, Multifunctional 10 in 1 Food Choppers, Kitchen Vegetable Slicer Dicer Cutter,Onion Mincer,Cheese Grater,Colander Basket,Kitchen Gadgets (Gray/Green)

I purchased this item for myself at least a year ago. Every year, my mother and I make turkey soup after Thanksgiving. I had this on hand and we used it for the celery, onions, carrots, and it was fantastic. She was so impressed with this item that she wanted to get her own. I purchased another for her for Mother’s Day and she was ecstatic. This product makes it so much easier to dice onions, celery, peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, pretty much anything. My autistic son loves this and is also learning how to use it. I’m hoping this will make him more independent.

I love this chopper. It does so much and reduces my time in the kitchen. I like to chop all of my salad items and put them in separate airtight containers after grocery shopping. It makes it easy to make my salads during the week, making it quick and easy, and allowing me to change it up a bit if my taste buds want something a little different. It’s like having my own Salada at home.

I have always wanted to try one of these but just never wanted to add yet another item to my kitchen when a knife can do the same thing. However, my old mandolin was starting to be a little too wonky and I had always hated that it barely had any protection for my hands. I decided to upgrade.I bought this because it was on a big sale for Cyber Monday (or some holiday sale). It had the mandolin feature and the chopping feature that I really wanted. I doubt I'll ever use the garlic grater or egg separator but that's okay.I washed it and used it right away to chop some onions. I hate chopping onions because of the burning eyes. And I never feel like I can get the pieces to be very uniform in size or shape. I cut the onion into pieces that were small enough to fit in the device and used the bigger size chopping piece. It worked perfectly! But since there were no instructions and I'm an impulsive idiot sometimes, I tried to remove the chopping plate and couldn't get it out. I put my thumb on the metal part to get leverage and immediately cut the crap out of my thumb. Sooooo sharp. Duh. Of course it is sharp.The plates are not easy to get out. Be very careful. You just have to pull and pull and hope it finally pops out. Do not touch the metal. Be better than me! A little release lever or something would make this much safer. The green piece that is on the lid is ever harder to remove but at least it isn't sharp. It only needs to be removed if using the garlic grater or mandolin features.That's caveat #1.Caveat #2 is that the small piece chopping plate is only about 50% usable. I used it yesterday to chop veggies for a soup. I wanted small pieces because my boyfriend doesn't like big chunks of things in his soup. I tried chopping onions, red bell peppers, carrots and celery with the small piece plate. ALL of them got stuck to it. The peppers were the worst because the skin of the pepper would just flatten out on the plate and not actually chop. The carrots chopped the easiest because they don't really have a skin. The celery is just too fibrous so even though it chopped, it stuck to the underside of the plate. I had to scrape everything off the super sharp plate with a sharp knife. Not exactly safe or easy and convenient.The problem seems to be that the little pokey pieces on the top green part aren't actually long enough to go all the way through the chopping plate holes. So that flaw combined with the very small holes just means that there isn't a way for things to not get stuck.I will likely stick to the bigger chop plate unless making soup and then I'll just deal with scraping off tiny pieces for a smoother soup.Caveat #3 is that there isn't a way to lock the top piece onto the tray that catches the pieces so it moves around quite a bit while chopping. If it snapped on or had a little lever/clip it would be so much better.Overall, I'm happy with it and all the little issues I'm having are going to be less annoying over time. I'm sure the plates will loosen up and be easier to remove. I might add my own little lever or velcro piece to the lid to keep it in place better. We'll see. I've used it several times already and the time and effort it saves me makes up for the issues I've faced.

Excellent! We’ve purchased twice! One for ourselves and one as a gift! I’ve even recommended this product to others! Many have added it to their carts and wishlists because of me. That’s how amazing this product is. It saves you so much time when needing to chop vegetables, especially so if needing large quantity. We use it when making seafood salads, ceviche, etc.

Strong built quality, easy to use, make my life easy on the kitchen, came with a different bladesizes which make a perfect chopability. Regrets why do not buy before. Recommended

If you have low expectations then you won't be disappointed. The good things first. It work well as a mandolin slicer and grater. I bought it to specifically use to reduce my prep time dicing vegetables. It does dice as advertised, but it doesn't save time. It is not very robust. The blades are not particularly sharp. This is makes dicing relatively thin skinned veggies like tomatoes a problem. To use effectively with onions, one needs to take the outer that you would normally use off. To use this product more efficiently you need to chop the veggies at least into quarters first. One, to make it easier to dice. Second, to be able to fit into the small cutting area. By the time you do all that then pick all the embedded pieces out of the backer while cleaning, you would be way ahead using a sharp knife. I'll keep it to use as grater/slicer. I like that it catches the pieces. As a dicer, meh.

This multifunctional vegetable chopper and slicer is fantastic! It has seriously made my kitchen work so much easier. Chopping vegetables is quick now, and making salads has become fun and effortless. I love that it slices in different ways, making everything look neat and professional. I honestly wish I had bought this sooner! The quality feels fantastic, and it's definitely made my cooking more efficient while making my salads look great. I'm totally in love with it!

Very easy to use. Fits what I need for smaller uses. Contains what you are chopping or slicing. Easy clean up.
