I don’t write many reviews… it’s simply not part of my skill-set. However, when a product comes along that exceeds my expectations on every level; I feel I should let others know. The Brieftons Manual Food Chopper is one of those items.
At first glance, I wondered how this little plastic gizmo could possibly live up to such high praise. It is lightweight and very compact. It reminds me of a mini-salad spinner, except it has a little green, spring loaded ‘lawn mower’ pull rope coming off one side… intriguing indeed. I had to put it to the test so I got out a few remnants of salad veggies, red and green bell pepper, onion, carrots, cucumber and what was left of some broccoli slaw (about a cup).
I quickly washed and dried the devise. Warning! THE BLADE IS SHARP, so be careful. (I bought a pair of inexpensive stainless steel forceps for cleaning processor blades. They grip tight and your hands are a long way from the cutting edge. They’re also good for digging out those stubborn fish bones, but I digress)
Here are the detailed assemble instructions:
1. Put the blade on the little post in the container
2. Put the lid on the container
Of course to make it useful, you will need to put stuff in it between steps 1 and 2. I roughly cut the veggie pieces into manageable sizes and filled the container to a little less than half, put the lid on and ‘started the engine’ (pulled the rope). I checked the contents after each pull to gauge the size produces and was amazed on how fine this little dude could chop… with no effort. So fascinated was I with the performance, I kept pulling and pulling and ended up throwing the first batch out because I’d turned it into a watery mush.
Keep in mind that something slender, like slaw strands, will produce much finer pieces. I now combine like-size items in one batch and adjust the rope pulls accordingly. Also, if you are going to make a salad to stick in fridge for a while use veggies with as little moisture as possible and chop the wet stuff right before serving. I found that three pulls, then a little shake and three more pulls is perfect for my ‘dry’ chopped salad. One of the pictures on the listing shows the unit being hand held, which I am sure would work great, but as I seem to be channeling my internal landscaper when I ‘start the engine’, I prefer to sit it on the counter (the non-skid rubber ring keeps it from slipping), keep a hold of the lid and pull, but not too hard. After all, it really isn’t a power tool.
I made a lime salsa in about three minutes and of course it chops garlic and ginger with ease. I have not chopped nuts and probably won’t unless I buy another one for just that purpose.
I would like to mention how great the free pdf cookbooks are. There are a lot of recipes in both of them. One covers salads and the other salsa. Download them. They are good.
Bottom line… the Brieftons Manual Food Chopper is a slick and well thought out kitchen gadget. It is fun, simple to use, easy to clean and very time saving. I am using the free recipes and making things I would never have dreamed of. Oh, and not to sound like an infomercial, but it does make a great gift.
You should buy one.
Happy chopping!

Love! Just careful how you pull rope!
It works wonderfully! I love it.The only flaw I've found so far after just a week of use (near daily use as i use it to chip up scraps for compost), is that the plastic is SOFT and if you pull the rope down it will wear a groove in the lid!And that doesn't mean it takes a lot of use to produce a grove. One appeared after just the first use!Now that I know, I just have to be conscious of it and pull more upward.Regardless, especially for the price, this is a great chopper!
