KitchenAid Food Chopper
Score: 66/100Rankings
The Ninja Food Chopper Express offers a 200-W motor with stacked double blades and one-touch pulsing in a compact, dishwasher-safe design. Its 2-cup bowl and difficulty handling soft, high-water foods like tomatoes restrict batch size and versatility. Best suited for single-person or small-kitchen use where speed and convenience are priorities.
KitchenAid KFC3516BM is a compact 3.5-cup chopper with a 240 W motor, two speeds plus pulse, and a handy drizzle basin. Its modest power and small bowl limit processing larger or tougher foods. Perfect for small households needing quick prep.
