Cuisinart Core Custom 4-Cup Chopper - White (MCH-4)

I have a larger Cuisinart food processor that I have had since about 1973 and it still works great. So, when I wanted a smaller version I did not consider any other brand. Great decision! This smaller version is powerful enough for almost daily use! I'll still use my larger one for bigger jobs but I am so glad I chose to get a smaller one and a Cuisinart!!

I replaced my old Cuisinart mini chopper with this 4 cup two speed model. 4 cusps is, for me, a good size and I really like the reversing two speed design. I have made butter, chopped vegies and course spices. Works perfectly. The two speeds are great for making butter too.

While we have a food processor, for smaller batches the 4 cup chopper provides a good base for rough/fine chops of vegetables. The buttons are basic, the cup large enough for a single medium to large onion, and the device does a fine job of chopping vegetables. The bowl is easy to clean, and a rinse between each vegetable chopped is all that's needed before proceeding to the next vegetable prep.

Love it! I bought this to replace my 30 year old Cuisinart mini and I have no regrets. It works so much better than the old one and the grind feature is a great upgrade. I have a larger model too but this one is so handy for daily tasks. Cuisinart should consider offering it as is plus an upgraded model with the slice/ shred option.

A gift from my d-i-l. She recently got one for herself and I was interested in its functions and design. It's small but mighty and takes little space on my countertop. I was very impressed my first use; chopping fresh thyme and garlic, then mixing my goat and cream cheeses with some honey. It was perfect in such little time. I don't know how I've lived without this and it's become a regular part of my daily food prep. Thank you Cuisinart!

This little machine is doing a lot of heavy lifting for me right now to prep nutrient-dense meals as I recover my health, and it handles everything I throw at it. It turns hours of chopping/mashing into just a few seconds of work. It's reliable, easy to clean, and exactly what I needed to make this lifestyle change sustainable.

I had a 3-cup for many, many years. Then I switched to KitchenAid's 5-cup for a few months. I gave that away and came back to Cuisinart (4 cup). I'm so glad to be back using a smooth-running, easy to use, well-made product that I will enjoy for many, many years

The blade is hard to remove : I have to take the bowl off to get the blade loose, making disassembly challenging. The cord storage area is not well designed. I normally attach a self adhesive cord storage winder, but the curved body offers no flat area to attach one. I preferred the smaller capacity cuisinart I had before this one. Oh well.

Solid, powerful, cleans easily. However, my primary use is Indian cooking - I want to take 6 cloves of garlic and 2 inches of ginger root, cut them into small cubes, put them in and get a ginger garlic paste consistency. However, it's too small a quantity for this 4 cup machine. The bits just get flung to the side. I have to start and stop, use a spatula about 20 times to get a paste.

Unfortunately this stopped working after only a couple of months. I tried all troubleshooting options online and on YouTube and even troubleshooting on phone but nothing worked. I had registered my warranty and when I contacted to utilize it there was a huge run around and hoops to jump through but they finally agreed to send me a new one after I cut the cord on the broken one. Understand about cutting the cord but adding more plastic and electric device to landfill stinks.
