Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International Heavy Duty Nut ChopperCustomer Review: Best Manual Chopper You Can Buy Summary: 5 Stars
This is the second Progressive International Heavy Duty Nut Chopper that I've purchased. I have one back home--bought three years ago--and I needed another for my Florida residence. The handle is easy to use, and the unit is very easy to clean. It does a good job even with almonds, which are very hard, along with the pecans and walnuts. My husband and I are very health conscious, and we include nuts in our daily diet--both at breakfast time (on our cereal) and also in the evening, mixed in with our salad. Electric choppers tend to pulverize nuts, making them akin to breadcrumbs, so all nut eaters need a hand chopper, as well; this one is the best.
Customer Review: Chopper check Summary: 4 Stars
Used this nut chopper regularly over several months to grind up about 1400 walnut kernels from a tree in my backyard. The non-skid base will only keep the chopper stable while grinding if you don't pack up the top portion with too many nuts (you may have to hold the unit down with your other hand anyway). If there's a difference between "coarse" and "fine" for walnuts, I haven't seen it, so I just use the handle in both directions to expedite chopping and save time.
Customer Review: Cooking class made easy! Summary: 5 Stars
Once again, with the help of tools like these, the 2nd-5th graders in our sons cooking class are able to complete their tasks quickly and with ease!
Customer Review: DANGEROUS!!! Summary: 1 Stars
Do not buy this product. I had the same experience with the other reviewers. A metal "teeth" which is the grinding portion was in between the nuts and of course it went into my cake batter. A guest bite into it. It was 1.5cm big!!! Thank goodness it wasn't a child who ate it!
Customer Review: Does the Job Summary: 4 Stars
We bought the chopper primarily for chopping macadamia nuts but we have used it for other nuts as well. It's easy to use and works very well. It may not be quite as heavy duty as the name implies but it is quite satisfactory. Turning the crank clockwise gives the reqular size of crushed nut and turning the crank counterclockwise gives a slightly smaller size. We feel it was a good buy for the moderate price.
