5.0 out of 5 stars BIG HELP IN SMALL MEAL PREP AND SERVE. AND......SO EASY TO CLEAN., January 15, 2008

By	a reader (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This is a great little machine for the price and does a great job if you do not need to process large amounts. I use it to puree and chop cooked foods for a family member who has special needs. It has a generous 3 cup capacity which is more than enough for individual portions. I have pureed cooked meatballs, beef stew, roasted chicken and turkey, poached fish, crab cakes, tuna and egg salads very successfully and was able to serve my SN family member the same foods that the rest of the family eats. You also can use this little gadget to create a batch of very smooth pesto or green goddess salad dressing. I'm buying a second one as a back-up and to be able to process more than one food at a time. I hardly ever pull out the huge heavy duty Cuisinart (maybe once a year) as it is such a chore to put together and clean afterwards. For everyday small portions of food the Hamilton Beach 3 cup chopper is a pleasure and a breeze to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wish I hadn't purchased this!, August 30, 2008

By	M. Bailey (Prescott Valley, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Buyer beware and take a very close look at the shape of this chopper. The blades are very small and the cylinger is much too tall. Hence, you get minced product in the bottom area and large chunks on top. I have to shake it to try and get even chopping, but it still doesn't help. I will need to find another with wider blades and better bowl to get the even cuts I like. It may work okay if you are doing 1/2 cup, but you may as well do it by hand if that's all you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars better than a 1.5 cup chopper, March 10, 2008

By	potato man (minnesota) - See all my reviews

I am extremely pleased with this product. I had a 1.5 cup chopper that worked ok for very small amounts of food, but things like a large bell pepper, cut into finger sized pieces, would get tangled up and not cycle through the blades. This 3 cup chopped fits a lot more stuff in it's bowl, and so far, has worked perfectly for me. It is much easier to clean than a full sized food processor, and takes up a lot less space. Ideal for making small batches of guacamole, salsa, soup, stir fry, ect. It's noisier than my full sized food processor, but quieter than the cheapp 1.5 cup chopper I bought.
