Express 2-Cup Mini Food Processor, Manual Vegetable Chopper Dicer

I highly recommend this product as superior for chopping vegetables and herbs, more effective than even an array of electrical appliances. It’s quick, easy, and safe. As the manufacturer claims, it chops food in record time, with very few depressions of its hand pump. Here’s where precision shines, as it will chop it all the way down to a purée consistency, so you need to monitor the results of each chop. And clean up is a breeze, because you don’t have all the various components of its electrical counterparts and they are durable lightweight plastic, exactly four pieces that stows compactly and easily rinses clean with warm soapy water. I don’t even remember how much it costs, but you couldn’t take mine away from me at any price.

Love my new chopper! Does exactly what I want from coarsely chopped to minced. Easy to put together and take apart to clean. Set the blades piece out of the way so you don't accidentally grab it. Blades are sharp! So easy to use!

This is the perfect size for a single “chef” or small family. It does a great job chopping and dicing to the size needed and it’s very easy to clean. I’ve had larger choppers that are more difficult to store whereas this one tucks away easily. I am delighted with my purchase of this quality product!

First of all, this review is being written after a few uses of the chopper, rather than exhaustive use over many months. In general, I like it, and will continue to use it. It does certain things very well, and has some nice features, but it's not a replacement for cutting things up with a knife when precision control of the size of the resulting pieces is desired.I chopped onions, carrots, and celery with it. For onions, it makes very nice finely chopped onion bits, but it's not easy to make uniformly-sized pieces that are larger. For carrots and celery, it seemed easier to stop at the right time to have larger pieces.The design is like a tiny food processor with wing blades installed. The chopper makes very quick work of what you put into it, needing only a few quick pushes of the plunger to chop everything. It has some nice features, like the non-skid bottom on the base and the button that locks the plunger in the down position to make it smaller for storage. The design makes it pretty easy to clean, though you're not supposed to immerse the top portion that contains the plunger mechanism.Pros:- Easy to use- Chops very quickly and easily- Non-skid base provides good stability- Easy to cleanCons:- Difficult to achieve a uniform size of the chopped veggies, if not going for a fine chop.

The Brieftons Express Manual Food Chopper is wonderfully simple and incredibly effective. The push‑down mechanism is smooth and powerful, turning veggies, nuts, and herbs into perfect pieces in just a few presses. It’s quiet, sturdy, easy to clean, and surprisingly fast.If you want a no‑fuss chopper that actually delivers, this one’s a standout.

Very happy with this. I use it to chop cooked vegetables so that my soup has some texture to it. It is quiet, fast and convenient. With this, I have no need for an expensive food processor for my basic cooking needs. This was money well spent.

Let me say right up front, that for a typical household, this would be exceptional. Unfortunately, I bought this for other staff to use with kitchen prep in a small 6 bed assisted living home where I work and "someone" dropped the plunger on the floor and it now rattles and will not lock in the down position for convenient storage. It still functions just fine though - but takes more space in the cupboard.On the plus side, the blade is incredibly sharp!! (As evidenced by an increased use in band-aids since staff have been using it.) It chops boiled eggs, fresh or canned mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, pickles and a myriad of fruits and vegetables. The cleanup is quick, thanks to the thoughtful design of the removable blade and the plunger that never has to touch the cleaning water (just make sure not to drop it on the floor...).The chopping motion is smooth and simple. I've used a Pampered Chef chopper for many years and it would start hurting the palm of my hand after only a few slaps. No fatigue with this fella! And once again, it is so easy to clean. No worries about ingredients from last month's meatloaf hanging around to combine with today's egg salad.Do I love this? Yes, I certainly do. Am I going to buy one for myself to use exclusively in my own kitchen? You bet! This would be a great gift for someone starting out on their own, getting married, or who simply does a lot of chopping.**UPDATED REVIEW**I raised my rating from 4 stars to 5 today. I ordered and received a new unit today for my own personal use and was surprised to see that I've been using the original one since November and when I compared the bowl and blade to the new one they are identical! The bowl has stayed sturdy and unstained despite daily use with an assortment of foods that could stain or cause damage. The blade? That thing stays super sharp (deadly, as a matter of fact) and I used the original one last night to chop salted peanuts for hot fudge sundaes and it did so with such little effort. I'm absolutely impressed with this product!

I was pleasantly surprised how well this chops! It has a easy push design that makes chopping relatively effortless. I like making big salads with lots of green and chopping the regular way was taking a toll on my back. Now my salads take a fraction of the time! My eyes miss my uniform precise cutting but lt my back sure loves using my Briefton’s Express food chopper!I encourage you to read the care instructions. To clean it, swish it around in warm soapy water right after use. Letting it dry makes it much more difficult to clean. I made the mistake of scrubbing my blade and it slipped and cut my finger. Good news is it didn’t do any lasting damage and still cuts all vegetables well!I have used this only a dozen times so far. However I do believe this has sturdy construction. At first I thought the blades were thin and bendy but this designs allows the blades to flex making them less brittle. I expect this to be a staple in my kitchen and will last. Even if so need another one I would not mind spending my money on this great product.EDITED4ish years later and I have probably used this only a few dozen times. Yes, it chops things finely. You’ll need to cut large hard vegetables like onions and carrots. Yes, it does it will little effort. No, it isn’t easy to clean. You will still need a knife and cutting board with this product.I took away one star for the 3 large blades. I was a bit of an idiot and cut myself while cleaning it. Probably would not have happend if I had a dishwasher. The second star was taken away for its inability to cut my main ingredients without needing any other tools.It gets 3 stars for being very very effective! I can mince hearty vegetables like potatoes, celery, and garlic simultaneously. I mainly use this when I make my own salad dressing and pasta sauce. I will use it more when I get older and probabaly arthritic. I’m glad I have it! I wouold reccomend this to anyone looking for a non powered way to quickly cut things.

I read all the reviews for similar items and purchased this item. I am so happy that I did, it is perfect. It even chops a few garlic pieces into very small bits...now that is really telling you something! Chops anything you put into it perfectly and cleans in a flash. Thx, I love it.

Fantastic!!! Great product and makes vegetable prep quick and easy!

We were extremely disappointed with this chopper. The Tupperware mini chopper is far and away a better choice. I chose this for more capacity, but the chopping power is nil. If I chop my food any smaller before putting it in, I may as well do it all by hand. It can't handle much! Finally the push handle cracked, and that was on soft zucchini. I am surprised at all the great reviews it got, which led me to purchase it in the first place, but be warned!

Es fabuloso y material muy durable

A little expensive but good performance overall
