Does a vegetable chopper squash tomatoes or cut them clean?

Pick 0006 · Fullstar 4-in-1 vegetable chopper and spiralizer

The Fullstar chopper cuts tomatoes and cucumbers cleanly rather than crushing them, and one reviewer names this as the difference from an older chopper that squashed soft vegetables into water. AddToPick rates the chopper worth buying. The blades are sharp enough that two of ten reviewers cut themselves, so the cleaning tools are not optional.

What it is

The chopper is a hinged press with interchangeable blade grids and a container that catches what falls through. Food goes on the grid, the lid comes down, and the food is pushed through the blades in one motion.

Four configurations come in the box, including a quarter inch square dice that reviewers single out as the size they actually use. A lid covers the container, and cleaning tools are included for clearing the grids without touching the blades.

How it works

Downward force is the whole mechanism. The lid presses the food through a fixed grid, which is why the cut is clean and why the food has to be small enough to pass in one push.

Preparation decides the result. Reviewers report that a whole carrot will not go through and has to be cut down first. For onions, one reviewer slices the onion into thick rounds and pushes a slice through at a time, rather than placing small pieces individually.

The closed lid also does something the technique does not. Because the onion sits inside a covered container while being cut, one reviewer reports the fumes stay contained and no longer force a break in cooking.

What reviewers report

AddToPick read ten US five-star reviews of this chopper, coming to roughly 5,200 characters. Sharpness dominates the set, and appears as both the main benefit and the main hazard.

Two of the ten reviewers report cutting themselves, one while handling a blade that slipped and one immediately after opening the box. A third reviewer warns about the small square blades and points other buyers to the included cleaning tools.

Who it is not for

Questions people ask

Does the chopper crush soft vegetables?

One reviewer reports tomatoes and cucumbers cutting cleanly, in direct comparison to an older chopper that squashed the same vegetables and left them watery.

How sharp are the blades really?

Two of ten reviewers cut themselves, one of them right after opening the box. Cleaning tools are included specifically so the grids can be cleared without touching the blades.

Does the chopper help with onion fumes?

One reviewer with sensitive eyes reports the lidded container keeps the fumes contained, which allows cooking to continue right after chopping. This is one reviewer's experience rather than a tested claim.

Does food need to be cut before going in?

Larger vegetables have to be cut down first. One reviewer names carrots specifically as too large to push through the grid whole.

Can the chopper handle anything besides vegetables?

Reviewers report using the chopper for cheese cubes and for cutting potatoes into fries, and describe the unit holding up to the force potatoes require.
