Hamilton Beach Electric Vegetable Chopper & Mini Food Processor, 3-Cup, 350 Watts, for Dicing, Mincing, and Puree, Black (72850)

This little food processor, which holds more than you might think, is easy to use, easy to clean, and has a lot of power. (Careful how much pressure you put on your veggies or you can wind up with mush!) Does a great job of mincing and dicing! Great product!

I do not write many reviews, but I felt this one was important for the reason I researched and purchased this electric chopper. My dad survived two stage 4 cancers back to back in 2010 and 2011. He’s been cancer free ever since, but the treatments did a number on his body. Specifically the radiation effects on his teeth and throat. (The first cancer was tonsillar.) He’s no longer has teeth and major difficulty swallowing. While this had limited what food he can eat, there are still things he can get down, but he has to spend 30 minutes cutting his food into miniscule pieces. The one thing I looked for with one of these products is if it could chop cooked meat. This has been a miracle. The first time I tried it out, I had brought home a chicken linguine pasta from my work. While I had to stir it once, it perfectly chopped, not pureed, the linguine and the grape tomato halves in less than 30 seconds. I did the chicken separate. I tore the straps into a few smaller pieces and only 3 quick taps made the chicken perfect for him. Then I just mixed it up together and he LOVED it. He used to have to heat his food to make it easier to cut, spend 30 minutes cutting it, then reheat it because it had become cold. Considering my dad only weighs 120lbs at this point, the man needs to eat as soon as possible, all the time. 100% recommended this. Easy to use, easy to clean, and it works like a beast. It has also been a godsend for my dad. Especially for the price. Amazing!!!

This little machine has a very powerful motor. It doesn’t hold very much but is great for one or two people to chop one or two onions, celery, etc. the only difficulty I have is courser chopping. The motor is so powerful that you literally have to put it on for a second or two before everything is very small. It is extremely useful and time saving. I can normally chop an onion or celery very quickly, but I have a condition that makes my hands shake and are not as reliable as before my illness. I bought this chopper primarily to save my hands from a cut if I slip with the knife, which is entirely possible. A real timesaver in the kitchen, particularly if you cook from scratch all the time as I do. It also cleans very easily. Usually I can just rinse it out and it’s fine. There is no annoying interlock. You just put on the plastic top and push super easy. I highly recommend.

Easy to set up and use. It’s exactly what you would expect for the price and dies the job well when needed.

Me gusta mucho concinar, pero detesto picar cebolla (me hace llorar, tiro por viaje).

Cuando vi esto en Amazon… y a este precio… simplemente tuve que pedirlo. ¡Una excelente decisión!

Es pequeño y fácil de usar. Pero, quizá lo más importante: ¡es facilísimo de lavar! Smiplemente quitar la tapa, la cuchilla, y la base, lavar con cuidado, secar, y guardar. Ahorra mucho tiempo picando las cosas, y me gusta mucho cómo deja los cortes.

Por supuesto, hay que saber utilizarlo. No se deja apretado consntatemente, porque haría un licuado. Más bien: se le dan pequeños “toques” (yo diría que de medio segundo cada uno) y se va midiendo cómo va el proceso de picado… y se le dan más toques (según sea necesario) hasta que quede justo como quieres.

Ahora, picar cebolla es tan fácil como partir una cebolla en octavos, echarlos al chopper, y listo.
Ya solo falta ver cuánto tiempo dura… pero, por el precio… vale la pena intentarlo.

This chopper works great and gets the job done quickly. The blades are sharp, making it easy to chop onions, vegetables, and other ingredients effortlessly. It’s compact, easy to use, and perfect for everyday kitchen tasks. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient food chopper!
