KFC0516 5 Cup Chopper

Easy to use, easy clean up and is nicely compact and good looking. Smaller sized spatulas are super helpful to get everything out of the canister . Very happy with the purchase and quality of the item. Saw it was on sale and had to get it right away!

I didn’t want a food processor, but I needed something to chop or purée. I had the small smaller size but this 5 cup size is perfect! It works great and I use it all the time.

KitchenAid makes the best quality products that last forever and they always get the job done. Well worth the price.

I bought this to use in my RV as its small size is easy to stow. Chops quickly and evenly so does the job. I appreciate that it's 5 cups instead of three cups, so I can chop more. They accomplish this with a taller bin. I worried that the tall size would affect chopping efficiency, but it's not an issue. It works so well, I use it at home. Why use this over my full size food processor? With my big unit, all the bowls, lids, and blades fill up my dishwasher, while the parts from this only take up a small space in the dishwasher drawer. Some notes about how this works: You twist on the bowl, drop in the spindle, slip the blade over the spindle, then twist on the lid. A lever on the side is marked "chop" and "pulse" but it's actually low speed/high speed. To activate, you press a tab on top of the handle; hold to spin, tap to pulse. You get two processing attachments which fit over the spindle: a metal cutting blade and a plastic disk (used for emulsifying stuff like salad dressings. It works well.) There's a slot at the base where you can wrap the cord in a tidy way. Overall, a great product.

I’d rate it five stars but their instructions for opening the lid in the owner manual are incomplete and frustrate many new users. See my photos and instructions below that show you how to open it. My first photo shows you the poor instruction at item 1, with a tiny illustration that’s incomplete and partly covered. The Chopper arrives with the lid firmly held in place for shipping with a white plastic foam spacer. The lid is held by friction fit under the pulse button. The first time you open it, it’ll be slightly harder because of the foam spacer. Grip the top edges of the lid at the pulse button and move it counterclockwise to open it. You’ll feel it let go of the friction grip. Now, throw away that foam spacer. Now when I open it, I use my left hand to help twist the lid and my right hand at the friction button, as seen in my photos. After you’ve done this once, you’ll know how. Here’s why I like the Food Chopper. I wanted something that’s small and can make purees and sorbet and similar things, like pesto or guacamole. Last night I quickly created strawberry sorbet. I first removed the whisking disc, then added frozen strawberries and pulsed them until they were strawberry ice. Next I added a few tablespoons of yoghurt, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of agave syrup. I blended this until it was smooth. Then I removed the blade by gripping the top of the center post and pulling it out. We spooned the sorbet to top our pie slices right out of the blender container, which lifts off of the Food Chopper. I bought this because I have a Vitamix, and it’ll make sorbets like this, but you can’t get all of the blend out of the bottom because the blender is deep and you can’t remove the blade. I’m glad to have the Food Chopper as a very useful cooking tool. It’s also easy to clean because you can remove the center post and blade.

Love this! It is so easy to use.

I got this food chopper to make filling for dumplings. Probably salsa too. I opened the box and couldn't find any instructions. It took a while to get the cover off without breaking it. The cover opens by rotating clockwise (without using downward pressure). Locks by rotating counter clockwise. There are three tabs at the top of the cup side, near the top. You can see the cover locked in. Easy to wash. I did everything by hand. Since I couldn't really get my scrubber in the center, i ordered a set of brushes. 1" and smaller. This food chopper is a little taller than the base for my Magic Bullet smoothie maker, but still fits nicely on my shelf. It doesn't take up much space. Im glad I chose the 5-cup version instead of the smaller one. For me, this is the perfect size.

Works great. No issues

Excelente producto trabaja muy bien lo amo

Puissant et performant !

En comparación con otros artículos muy buena compra.

I bought this machine to replace the similar cordless model that failed after two years of use. I like the capacity and the powerful motor. Cord storage is simple and it looks nice on the counter. I think my favourite feature is the “whipping disc”. I use it to make mayonnaise and ceasar salad dressing from scratch. It is also very good for chopping vegetables. It is now on my gift list for the home cooks in my life.

Works well and highly recommend it. Easy to tuck away in a cupboard and not heavy. Does what I expected it to do. For the price you can't go wrong.
