Bought this five weeks ago. I’ve used it to grind bread crumbs and cracker crumbs. It did fine. However, I attempted to grind pecorino romano cheese that was cut into one inch cubes but cold and it wouldn’t work at all. Motor shut down and I unplugged it. My 32 year old Sunbeam Oskar did the job just fine. Although my little Oskar still works great, I wanted a larger bowl for bigger jobs without using a food processor. I find the quality of the plastic bowl flimsy when compared to the Oskar. All in all I have to say I am disappointed in the performance of this product. I own several cuisinart small appliances and this one doesn’t measure up to the others.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Having spent far too long chopping and mincing herbs, onion, shallots, I purchased a Cuisinart Chopper. Made all the difference in how much time it took to prepare a simple salmon dish with lots of herbs. So glad I could now spend more time with guests and less time weeping over onion and shallots. 😆

Truth be told, I was out to replace my 3-cup Cuisinart that I had used a great deal for many years (plastic parts were cracked and metal rusted). The store only showed the 4-cup and so I mistakenly thought that it had taken the place of the 3-cup. Although the smaller size was sufficient, I am enjoying the mixer stem that doesn't have to be removed when emptying the food from the cup. (I do find it a little difficult to remove for washing). Since I cook for 2 now, the extra cup size has replaced my need for using my larger Cuisinart.

Easy to put together and take apart. Handles bigger chopping/blending jobs, yet still fits easily under my counter. I don’t have to leave it out. Great addition to my kitchen!

This little chopper is awesome! It has such a small gap between the bottom of the cup and the blade, that it chops and minces every piece, every time, not missing anything. The only complaint I have is that I am not able to grind dry ingredients. It mostly just spins the spices around. I expected it to work like the small coffee grinder I have, but it does not.

I have had an older model of this same 4 cup chopper/grinder for many years, so I requested one for Christmas. The first time I used the new one, a piece of the plastic on the bowl broke off. I tried going through customer service to get a replacement bowl and was unable to provide the receipt they requested because it was a gift.
