Vivaant Compact Mini Dicer - Perfect for Quickly Cubing and Dicing Vegetables, Vegetable Chopper and Cutter with Manual Hand Chopper for Onions and Small Veggies

This is best! I love the smaller size and two interchangeable blade sizes. So quick and easy to use and clean up is a breeze. Love it!

I love this simple gadget for dicing onions. It's very sharp and well made. Exactly what I need without all the unnecessary bells and whistles. And it's compact and doesn't take up much room. I will use this often!

"extremely" sharp blades! when changing the insert it's hard to know which side goes up. I cut my self when putting unused insert back in for storage. Otherwise it does a great job and fast!

I have one if the other brands of choppers available on Amazon. You know the (green) ones. They come with all those extra pieces that seem great. They are garbage. The blades are flimsy and who uses those extra pieces? This product, however, is just what you need. It comes with only the 2 sized cutting grids that you will actually use, so no Ziploc bag in the cabinet with extra junk. The metal is so much stronger then they others and the whole contraption is heavy duty. The top grid piece is affixed to the upper arm so less moving pieces means less areas to break. Also, the extra cutting grid stores neatly on the top so it's always on hand. Needless to say, this thing is awesome. One caveat is that you have to empty it more often than the other guys but the quality will make up for it every time.

Needs more strength than I have to push through a small onion half. VERY difficult to clean. When I checked back to view reviews I noticed that customers sent pictures of a very different chopper. Not the Vivaant one. And gave it very good reviews. But not the product that was featured. Very confusing. I'm returning this one. Back to my French knife. Much easier.

I bought this compact mini dicer specifically because I did not want to use or to store a large bulky device. 1. I am especially impressed with the cutting blades. They are so thin, I thought they would not be strong enough and that they'd bend and break. But the blades are powerful enough for the cutting I do - even raw potatoes. I have also diced, onions, tomatoes, and pitted olives with this dicer. 2. Once the device is assembled, the pusher and the blades line up perfectly. Push hard enough and a batch is diced. (Very nice) I did buy another dicer (also being returned) and the pusher and blade are aligned prior to each push by trial and error. It can take many attempts before you have a diced result. I mention this because importantly, the Vivaant Compact Mini Dicer has been successful in pusher to blade alignment. The device stays aligned until you disassemble. I am disappointed in a few things and believe they can be improved. I would try this product again if these improvements are made. !. The device is not easy to clean. Neither the blades nor the pusher can be cleaned by rinsing alone (as stated on the website) or using the cleaning brush provided. Cleaning the pusher is the hardest, most time-consuming, and most tedious. The spaces are arranged (reasonably) in 9 columns and 9 rows. To clean all the debris, I have to push a slim blade (I have not yet found a brush that works well) up and down between each of the 9 columns and then back and forth across each of the 9 rows. I usually have to do all of that multiple times to purge all the debris. It takes far too long to push debris out of the pusher. The pusher is not removable, so you can not push debris through it to the other side. 2. The container needs to be taken apart to clean. This is also a nuisance. Assembling and disassembling the device is not intuitive and requires too much attention. The top has to be aligned at a specific angle before pushing onto the base or removing from the base. There is no visible mark to id this angle when removing the top. I get it wrong far more than I get it right. 3. The device comes with 2 dicers of 2 sizes. (Nice) The spare dicer is stored in the top. (Nice). I can not easily pull it out. And it's even harder to reinstall it. It only fits one way, but since the blade device looks almost the same from the top or the bottom, from back or front and from side to side. (perhaps a future version can simply include alignment markings on the parts needing to be aligned.) It's not always obvious and thus takes too long. 4. I really like the idea of a small 3x3" blade. Unfortunately, inside the frame, the blade size is (about 2/3/4" and is not large enough to accommodate many of the vegetables (eg. medium onions about 3 3/8 diameter") I routinely want to dice. Therefore, I must trim too many pieces to fit with a knife before placing in the blade area. I'd probably prefer a 4x4" effective blade cutting area. 5. The front of the container is open, perhaps to make it easier to empty the container between veggies or if it gets full. (Nice) Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that when cutting a juicy item, like tomatoes, if you don't cover the opening you, your counters, and maybe your floors, will get sprayed with the juice. While dicing one onion, I found out, that the container is not large enough for a whole medium sized onion. I was almost done with the onion, it looked like there was more room in the container, then BAM - the newly diced pieces jettisoned a bunch of previously diced pieces from the container, hit me and landed on the countertop and the floor. The assembled device is a bit large and awkwardly shaped for my small hands and I really don't want to stop and empty it for part of a medium onion. I like the uniform dices created by this dicer to using a food processor/blender. But I'm returning this one, because using it irritates me.

I bought my Compact Dicer in March of last year. I did not open the box until the other day. I had forgotten about it. I needed some onions chopped and I hate chopping onions! For some reason, I remember buying that Dicer. I found it sitting back on a shelf, washed it and used it! It sure saved me time and was very easy to use. I am very satisfied with my purchase and plan to use it often.

This dicer is compact, easy to use, easy to clean, & just what I wanted! With 2 dicing plates it is the simple dicer I needed. It houses the extra dicer plate so storage is simple. Being on piece it is more sturdy than other dicers. Makes meal prep twice as fast. Really pleased!
