KitchenAid - 3.5-Cup Mini Food Processor - White

I have been chopping onions regular way for several years. This small appliance is a game changer. In less than 2 mins with chopping and tossing in. Im done. No more tears even peppers are chopped nicely, not mushy. I have no reason for puree yet. But definitely worth the buy.

Copied and pasted from a comment I left on a KitchenAid "how to use" video, because the tiny instruction manual doesn't make this clear: - The black part and the see-through part of the lid are one continuous thing that's designed to tell the spinning mechanism when to operate. Do not try to separate the black part and the see-through part like I did. I nearly broke mine before I realized they are one thing. - To remove the lid: Place your right finger on the side of the one-inch long lid handle; you'll likely be pressing the side of the black part and the plastic part at the same time, both of which are about as thick as a matchstick. Push this clockwise, so the lid looks like a letter "Q." The lid should pop right off. - The blade is attached to a black cylinder and should come right out when you pull it. - To remove the work cup, grab the handle with your right hand and then twist it clockwise toward the switch knob that's pointed to "Chop" (slow) or "Puree" (fast). The work cup should pop right off. Note that it's got little plastic hangers underneath that are meant to be positioned underneath the ones on the electric base. You do not wash the electric base, only the cup, the blade, and the lid. - You can't place the work cup straight back down onto the base because of the little hangers on the base itself that keep the cup in place. To reposition the cup and make sure it's snug, place the cup back on the base at a position so the handle is pointing just above the word "Puree" on the base. Then twist the cup counterclockwise; its little hangers should slot into the hangers on the base and snugly secure. - Plug the processor's cord (note that it tucks into the base in a circle shape) into a safe kitchen outlet, then squeeze the black part of the handle onto the plastic part of the handle in order to power the spinning mechanism. Other than that, the device itself is very good, excellent for pestos, chopping walnuts, and even stirring pizza doughs.

Perfect size for someone who lives with just one other person. Great quality—works well, powerful motor, & easy to clean.

Perfect size for small to medium jobs. Works quickly and efficiently. Adjustable speed. I liked mine so much I've given one as a gift and they love it for their small kitchen.

We love this little chopper. It is powerful and compact. Perfect for prep when making soups, sauces and dips!
