    Small But Mighty Kitchen Essential! Review:

    The KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper is a compact powerhouse, delivering a performance that outshines its size! The first thing that catches your eye is the design – compact, sleek, and elegant. It seamlessly fits into any kitchen decor and its small size makes it easy to store. Despite its size, this food chopper has a powerful motor that makes quick work of chopping, pureeing, and even making dressings. It handles everything from nuts, vegetables, to soft fruits with ease, resulting in consistently even chopping every time. The two speeds (chop and puree) add to its versatility. The 3.5 cup bowl, although seemingly small, is adequate for everyday use and perfect for small to medium-sized meals. The pour spout and handle are very convenient features, making it easy to transfer the chopped food. Cleaning this chopper is a breeze. The bowl, lid, and blade are all dishwasher-safe, saving time and effort. The KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper is an ideal kitchen companion for those who value convenience, performance, and aesthetics. It’s worth every cent for the amount of time it saves and the quality results it delivers. It’s a fantastic addition to my kitchen tools and I can’t recommend it enough!

    Good buy

    Excellent food processor. Quiet yet powerful and large enough to do most task. Only draw back is the lid being slightly difficult to take on and off other than that no complaints

Questions & Answers

  • Does this have a PULSE option?

    Yes, in that you gently tap your thumb up and down on the handle end instead of just holding it down. It's very easy to do, and works very well. Hope this helps.

  • How many cups does this food processor hold?

    You probably don't want to fill it to the top, especially with hard/dense items, because it is not an" industrial strength" machine. That's not a negative, that's just the purpose it was designed to serve. However - for example- it easily can do 2 cups of zucchini squash cut into 1 inch cubes with no trouble. We've done onions, garlic, etc. with no trouble. I believe the real key is to cut your items into smaller cubes.

    Answered by Cookie
  • Does the lid come apart for cleaning?

    Who knows. It should come apart easily according to info on line but I can’t get my lid to separate!

    Answered by Papa
  • Is this large enough to make a pie crust?

    Hi Mom, The 3.5 Cup Mini Food Processor is capable of making pie crust.

    Answered by KitchenAidTeam
  • How well does this machine puree?

    I had been asking same question for almost every small grinder and have tried nutribullet, and a couple of other lesser known brands. This one is the best so far in making purée.
