 Love this gadget June 15, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I really love this tool. I loved it so much that I got one for my mom too. I bought it just to grind walnuts so I don't have to use the hand crank. It makes it really easy to grind walnuts and it's fast too. I shredded cabbage and it did a nice job. The cord retracts just like any other product I've had so I'm not disappointed there either. I was really surpised by the low scores in these reviews.
 POORLY DESIGNED IN EVERY WAY May 28, 2007

I was very excited to get this small kitchen appliance as I thought it would make the process of shredding and grating produce much quicker. This gadget is poorly designed in every way. For starters, the spout is too low for most bowls. No mixing bowl that I have fits underneath. Second, the angle of the spout is not sharp enough. I have to constantly cut the power to reach my hand inside and pull out processed vegetables. If the angle were, sharper, gravity would probably take care of this. Third, the motor is very weak. With just a few carrots placed in the top, the motor starts slowing down. There is a consistent light burning smell from the unit when the motor slows down. Fourth, food constantly gets caught between the removable metal grating/shredding cylinders and the inside of the unit. I am only able to process a few vegetables before I have to cut off the power, open the unit and wash out all of the produce that is stuck inside. Cleaning the removable parts is easy, but food also gets stuck in crevices on the base unit which is very difficult to remove. I am not at all happy with this unit and would recommend that you look elsewhere for a shredding/grating appliance.

Too much food remains in the part that does not detach. I shred carrots for my husband and I loose a good bit of the carrots that are left in the machine. The space between the cutter and the casing is where the carrots gather.
The cord also does not retract easily. I have to actually push it back into the machine.
