Chop Genie Food Chopper As Seen on TV - Onion, Vegetable, Fruit and Cheese Chopper - Dice, Slice and Chop for Salads, Soups, Ragout and More - Enjoy by Emerson

I love this thing! But I haven't got a good cleaning because the sides are not wanting to come apart!

Looked like the product was used. Packaging taped awkwardly, no instructions inside. Tried it, and didn't cut celery sharply--kind of mushy.

I like it

Used it once and the plastic piece that goes on over the blades won't go back on so it's already useless

Excellent

It wouldn't chop anything. I made the chicken salad using the recipe on the chopper package. The chopper would not chop even the grapes. The design of the blades (an "S" shape) just cuts whatever it is supposed to chop the leaves the "chopped" portion stuck in the blades where you can't chop the anymore without taking it apart and cleaning the blade. Then with the first "chop" of the next item, it again slides up into the middle of the blade where you have to take it apart to remove the food from the blades. Very irritating.

The blade guard is too flexible so the item being chopped gets stuck in the blades.

Tried this for like an hour trying to chop some garlic, a small onion, and some soaked chickpeas. Got it for free and can see why whoever discarded it didn't want it. Was relieved when it broke (the bottom blade head detached from the neck) and I could stop struggling with it.Garlic chopped the best. Got it to a large, uneven mince in around triple the time it would have taken witha knife.The blades weren't able to break the onion skin so I ended up with mush, some chopped onion, and large sections of squashed onion skin. Onion slices got trapped up in the blade (the plastic guard sits like 1/2 inch higher than the blade so anytime something is chopped there's 1/2 inch unchopped food caught up in the blade you have shimmy loose).The soaked chickpeas didn't chop at all. They're soft and chop easily with a regular knife, but were the perfect size to get caught up in the blade area.
