KitchenAid KFC3516IC 3.5 Cup Food Chopper, Ice Blue

A workhorse! Nice for smaller jobs. Cleans easily, not terribly loud, gets the job done!

I love this thing. Easy to use and easy to clean. Kitchen aid is a known brand and you can’t go wrong with this. If you have limited storage in your kitchen or small counter space this is perfect. Making salsa or whatever. This gets the job done. Great machine for the cost. It’s a sturdy little machine but don’t let the size fool you. It’s not as loud as I thought it would be but hey; it’s an appliance not a radio. It is going to make some noise.

My old mini processor finally died after about 15 years so I chose this one as a replacement. So far so great! Much quieter than my old one, it’s a nice simple design and it purées quickly. I like the oil dripper for dressings in the top as it works better than my old one which was always a mess when I was finished. The brand is one I know and trust, and it’s super cute which is a bonus.

This appliance is a powerhouse that can handle everything from chopping vegetables to kneading dough.The build quality is exceptional, as you'd expect from KitchenAid. It feels sturdy and well-made, and I have no doubt that it will last for years to come. The controls are intuitive, and the attachments are easy to use and clean.I've used it for a variety of tasks, including:Chopping vegetables: It does a fantastic job of chopping vegetables quickly and evenly.Shredding cheese: Shredding cheese is a breeze with this processor.Kneading dough: I've used it to knead dough for bread and pasta, and it works perfectly.Pureeing soups: It's great for pureeing soups and sauces.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my KitchenAid Food Processor. It's a versatile and reliable appliance that has made my life in the kitchen much easier. If you're looking for a high-quality food processor, I highly recommend this one.

Sweet tiny machine use it alot easy to use easy to clean.

Great little powerhouse! I make an Easter Frittata that requires a lot of chopping! Hard salami, chunks of ham, cheeses, scallions, and this little Beast did it in minutes with perfect results! Highly recommend

The first one arrived broken. I am going to return it. In the meantime, I ordered another one, which is in perfect condition. I’ve done a lot of cooking this weekend and have used it several times. It works well and it’s easy to use. I like it. The first one I ordered seemed to be adequately packaged but when I opened it I realized it had a big hole at the bottom of the mixing bowl. The broken pieces were in the box. I’m returning it.

My old mini chopper was giving me headaches and throwing me into fits of swearing and gnashing of teeth. Despite it being made by a premier small appliance company and stipulated to have stainless steel components, the projection that held the blade rusted and got stuck all the time! It became a chore to remove the blade portion from the main appliance to the point that I dreaded using it. Enter Amazon Prime Day. This beautiful KitchenAid 3.5 Food Chopper was accompanied by a price I could not refuse. Since its arrival, I have used this little chopper with great success to chop a variety of vegetables including the classic triumvirate of onions, celery, and carrots. After cutting the vegetables into chunks to fit in the bowl, l loaded it up putting it on chop mode. Within seconds, no exaggeration, it had whittled those chunks down to the perfect chopped size. I did have to hold the machine when it initially began chopping the carrots, but not for the less dense vegetables. It was actually quite amazing how this teeny little red machine did its thing! This petite wee chopper is compact with a space at the bottom where the cord is wound keeping it out of site and preventing the cord from dangling obtrusively from its storage shelf. The apparatus has three pieces (not counting the main motor portion) consisting of the lid, removable stainless steel blade, and bowl. The lid and bowl are a clear hard plastic making easy to see when enough is enough. The blade attaches to a column of either rubber or plastic and fits securely over the projection. The bowl snaps easily and decisively into place. The on and off switch is located at the top of the handle and operates when pressed down or released which can be easily done with one finger or a thumb. A small sliding switch changes from chop to grind with a simple push and is located just below the bowl on the motor portion of the chopper. The noise is very tolerable and not nearly as loud as my old chopper. The bowl has a convenient pour spout, and there is a "drizzle basin" on top of the lid making adding liquid easy and mess free. The chopper disassembles easily for cleaning and according to the ad is dishwasher safe. My little ruby red gem of a guillotine (also available in 8 other colors) is going to be a great addition to my kitchen.NOTE: However, I must mention one problem that I had. Neither my son or I could figure out how to remove the lid from the bowl. I read the manual from start to finish (the English portion) twice but to no avail. I cold not find any instructions on how to remove the lid. Each maneuver I tried failed. Fearing that I might indeed break or damage something, I went to that all knowing teacher, YouTube. Finally I found a video with one simple sentence/statement that answered my question. One just takes a finger or thumb and gently pushes the top portion at the stop button forward toward you. So, using gentle pressure and one finger I did just that, and voila' I was able to remove the lid. Simple as pie, but not so initially! Now in my opinion, that should have been included in the instruction manual, and I should not have had to go to YouTube to find out how to remove a lid. KitchenAid is above that! Despite the fact that this is a top notch little machine, I was tempted to give it 4 stars. Reason prevailed, and five stars were assigned because of the size, stability, efficiency, speed, and quality of the machine. It really is very easy to remove the lid once you know how it is done. This little mini chopper is a giant among its own kind, and I can recommend it without reservation...just remember- push the little starter toward you to remove the lid!Top 3 Likes:-Does an excellent job chopping to a roughly uniform size-It is fast, efficient, and relatively, comparatively quiet-Compact and solidly, substantially, and attractively constructedTop 3 Dislikes:-There is some (but minimal) motor noise-Had to hold it steady while chopping dense vegetables like carrots-Lack of instruction on how to remove the lid
