Customer Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Chopper
Customer Rating:  Summary: Works well, although is a bit hard to clean Comment: Works well, although is a bit hard to clean I bought two sizes, and use the small one more. Particularly good for chopping nuts, I found! Customer Rating:  Summary: *Perfect* homemade ham salad Comment: Bought it for my wife and she agrees it is worthless on scallions. I can imagine that any skin/outer layers left on white/yellow onions will also cause problems. However, we found a use for it with our leftover Christmas ham that makes it a keeper. It makes perfect small diced ham salad that was much improved over food processor prepared. The chop size and resulting texture were outstanding. Customer Rating: Summary: Great garlic chopper Comment: This is the chopper you want for garlic, it chops much finer that a full size chopper. I use it with the pealed garlic that Costco sells in 3lb containers. You can chop a handful of garlic in seconds. The one downside is that it's not terribly durable. My first chopper lasted for a couple of years before it broke which isn't bad for a $10 item but it could better built. Customer Rating: Summary: Blade is very dull Comment: I purchased this item because I've always been impressed with OXO products in the past, and I like that this chopper is dishwasher safe, while many aren't. I got it home, cleaned and assembled it (an easy task), and set about trying to chop. I've tried onions, nuts, basil, none of them worked. About the only thing I can get it to chop is garlic, and I already have a garlic press for that! This product is an unbelievable waste of money. I'm off to look for another brand... Customer Rating: Summary: Oxo good grips chopper Comment: Cup way too small and holds too little. difficult to use if you put too much in, which isnt much. I was dissappointed. More Reviews The Good Grips Choppers take the work out of chopping your food. It comes with a Large Chopper for onions, vegetable and herbs - and a Mini Chopper for garlic. Press the soft knob and the blades rotate for even chopping. An internal soft bumper absorbs any shock to increase comfort and sound quality. Chop ingredients in the enclosed cup with its soft, non-slip base, or remove the base and chop directly on a cutting board. A tab rotates within the cup to prevent food from accumulating on the side walls. Both Choppers include a spoon for scooping so there's no need to leave your hands smelling like onions or garlic. 
Choosing Appliance -> Spoons Buy stainless spoons (both slotted and non-slotted) which are solid and won't bend no matter how tough the job. Also, buy several high quality wooden spoons for stirring delicate dishes like risotto (the sharp edge of a metal spoon would cut or bruise the rice). Choosing Appliance -> Cutting boards There seems to be little difference between hard wood and plastic cutting boards from a safety standpoint, as long as they are properly washed and sanitized after each use. Personally, I like the feel of solid wood. One piece of advice--buy large cutting boards. Don't bother with these tiny boards that everyone seems to have in his or her kitchen. They are not user friendly. Once you get down to serious cutting or chopping, the small boards are always woefully inadequate and downright maddening! Oxo Good Grips Chopper
