I looked online for replacement parts and discovered that the company did not sell individual parts but did offer what amounts to a lifetime guarantee. I thought that was too good to be true but figured it wouldn't hurt to try. I sent the broken part back with a copy of our Amazon order receipt, and sure enough a few weeks later we received a brand new, fully complete unit at no charge! Not even a shipping charge. Great customer service! Thanks!
We first bought a green one for our daughter to use in her dorm room at college. It is great for salsa, pico de gallo, guacamole, etc.
Then we bought a second (red) one for our 4 year old niece's birthday. WARNING! The blades are super sharp (that's why it works so well) so this would only be appropriate for children with DIRECT adult supervision. Also, it takes a bigger tug on the handle to make it work than you would think, especially with crunchy foods, so keep that in mind if you don't have strong arms. If you have ever started a gas powered weed eater that's the kind of brisk pull you need. That being said, a 4 year old girl was able to use it to chop strawberries for a birthday sunday, and they came out great. I had to chop the ginger snaps for her.
Now we are buying one for the house since taking out, assembling, and cleaning the real food processor is often more trouble than it's worth for small jobs. This little thing will do a great job chopping garlic, onions, etc. And, the fineness of chop is easy to control; the more times you pull the cord, the smaller the pieces will be.
We've only used it a few times, so I can't comment on how long the blades will stay sharp, but it seems well thought out and constructed. At this price, you really can't go wrong.
It arrived promptly as expected in its own little box with instructions.
It is super easy to easy. Make sure you lock it in place before you use it, cos the lid needs to fit snugly so you avoid it flying off. I love the hand-cranking motion, makes you feel like you are doing exercise, and the vegetable gets chopped finely, and I love that it stays inside, not messing up cutting boards, by using graters.
I grate Cauliflower quite often, so I tried it for this, and it worked beautifully, I pulled it apart as florets, and put them in. While 5-6 pulls didn't coarsely grind it like it claims, within 7-8 pulls, it was a beautifully processed finely grated cauliflower, without the mess that usually accompanies it.
We have been finding excuses to cut veges in that, and me and my husband keep vying for a chance to use it before the other gets to it. We even made yoghurt smoothie in that - added some frozen berries, yoghurt, and protein powder, and while it didnt mash it completely like a blender would, it made them really really small, which was interesting and tasty in its own way, cos its like eating and drinking the smoothie.
Only peeves :
Because the blades are quite sharp, I am scared to wash it and leave it outside to dry on the dish rack in case my husband or I can reach to grab a glass, and scratch ourselves with the blade, it has happened yet cos as soon as I wash it, I wipe it with tissue, and put the blade back inside for safety. Something to consider if you have kids in the house, it is a raw edged blade, and very sharp. While washing I scratched myself with the slightest brush against it.
It says 5-6 pulls to chop coarsely, but with that many pulls, depending on the vegetable you are cutting, it cuts unevenly (I tried large chunks of carrots, potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli), and results in shapeless chunks, but that cannot be helped, and if you want coarse chop in a specific shape, you should probably use a knife.
Overall, very pleased with the product, Just adds one more tool to our kitchen tools of mandolin slicer, grater, and chopping board, but I see my family using this a lot more often than some of the other equipment.
Update : (May 29, 2012)
Its been couple weeks since I purchased this, and I have been using it very often. Just yesterday I noticed the first negative about the product.
I wanted to finely chop up some carrots for some salad, and just broke long carrots into 3 pieces (1" dia). The chopper couldn't get through the flesh. It cut thru the carrot piece, and the piece got stuck in the blade. So I got all the pieces out, and cut them into quarters, and then it went smoothly.
And the other negative being that if you are holding down the top with your other hand for grip, and pulling with the other one, steer clear from the exit of the wire, cos it sliced me slightly with the heat it generated. Not really bad, but a singing or whatever they call it. I wasn't too careful I guess. It doesn't hurt today.
If I pull downwards instead of at hip level (If your hand hurts and you are taking a different stand), then black marks appear on the lid. While its aesthetic value is hurt, it still performs great. I will post a picture of the black marks. I think if you did it at the hip level always, it wont happen.
Update : (Mar 2013)
It fell down from a 2 feet height onto tile floor and got a crack on its side. We were careless in handling it. But in spite of the crack, it still functions, so thats cool. However, when it fell down, the inner white portion separated from the top handle, and there was a whole lot of gunk in there like wet fungi that we washed. It was disgusting, and once we fitted it back together, we werent able to open it anymore. That is a design flaw. To get it open, we have to hit it hard against the ground! Wish we had not seen the insides! But still functions, we use it lesser, and I am buying my second one, and another one to gift couples who enjoy cooking like us.
Size is compact and easy for storage, if they made a bigger version I would get that too!

I can appreciate the ease of use to get it ready, no messy long wires and strange plugs like a full-sized food processor :D. No need to haul and lug around that clunky, but efficient, electric food processor.
This is the "guilt-free and grid-free" option to making your favorite fresh homemade salsas, pesto's and 'chunky' but funky hummus.
However, the hummus does not seem to get down to a 'fine grain' like it's 'electric counter-part' produces, no pun intended (get it 'kitchen counter-part' lol). The dishes are tasty nonetheless, maybe try different fresh ingredients to get other results?!
You can easily use this Chopper for fresh tomato pasta sauces, salsas or simple dressings, like my world famous 'Avocado-Coco" dressing!
Take a 'Cauliflower head' and make some instant "Cauliflower-rice' for quick low-carb rice substitute. I mean why eat regular long grain Basmati rice, when you can have fresh Cauliflower rice at a minutes notice? Also perfect for mukbang.
