We like that this chopper's body and blades are made of stainless steel. It chops well with the blades. We gave this an average review because of two problems. The metal cover for the blades keeps falling out whenever we unscrew the top from the base. The base cup has a removable bottom, which is great if you are copping on a cutting board where you don't need the bottom. However, the bottom sometimes comes off after we remove the top, which spills the contents in the base. Both the metal chopping guide and the bottom on the base should be tighter.
My 15 yo Pampered Chef chopper finally bit the dust. I ordered the Cuisinart one because of the brand. BIG mistake. The bowl is way too small. You can’t get the chopper clean despite putting it in the dish washer. I threw the packaging out because I THOUGHT it would be great. It’s not. I’ve already ordered and received the Pampered Chef version - MUCH better option.
