| OMG the Happy Chopper by Tupperware is the BEST invention ever!! The happy chopper chops onions, garlic, herbs nuts and even ham!
no more tears or smelly fingers, this wonderful little invention has an enclosed bowl with super sharp blades, twist the lid to chop, the more you twist it the more it chops.
be careful those blades are super super sharp, as my poor finger can attest to.

| | Don't agree sorry. By the time you have cut everything up to fit into the chopper, you could have chopped it for your recipe anyway. Also, dismantling the blades is tedious and dangerous and the re-assemble is also a hassle. Give me a good knife and chopping board any day. Thanks | | | |

dismantling the blades? first i've heard of anyone dismantling the blades. lifting it out of the little bowl and rinsing it all clean is how everyone i know does it.
what i found dangerous about the old style of chopping onions up with a knife is the tears that were so bad i couldnt see where i was chopping, and ended up slicing my finger so badly i had to have stitches.
The happy chopper is especially good for anyone who has difficulty chopping - think those with arthritis or hand/wrist problems. | | | |

| I also love the happy chopper! I've found by twisting it really fast the onion is chopped into perfect sized pieces, and there are no tears! I'm also terrible and am always slicing my fingers on knives, so the happy chopper is great.

| | I agree with both! I love it for onions, for the no tears benefit, but for most other stuff you may as well chop it on a board. I'm an ex Tupperware rep, and it was one of my most selling products. It's a great invention for those who have arthritis and find it difficult to handle knives etc. | | | |

| | I guess it would be good for people suffering with arthritis, but at this stage I still prefer to use a knife-easier to wash up afterwards. | | | |

| | I used to sell Tupperware and I really liked this but found similar products on the market that would do the same job but cheaper. I use it because I'm not skilled at finely chopping products. I use it to make almond & sunflower meal for LSA. Great for onions and those with arthritis but it can be a bugger to clean, rinsing isn't always enough. | | | |

| | I just bought the Happy Chooper a few weeks ago and have found it to be very time saving, its not hard to cut your veggies in half or even quarters to put into the Happy Chopper. If you are like me I usually always have the halves of onions, tomatoes, carrots etc in my fridge so I dont need to chop them i just wack them in, turn a few times, throw it into the pan. Wow just too easy I say!! I am a big fan of the Happy Chooper. Im with you on this one Keento. | | | |

| | I love my happy chopper - I always hated chopping onions because of the tears. Now I can chop a whole onion in around 30 seconds with no tears. Have also used for chopping tomatoes and nuts. The Happy Chopper comes with a lid so if you only need half the onion (I usually do as I cook for only 2 people), you can store half the unused portion in the fridge and it keeps fine for a few days for use later. The best Tupperware product by far. | | | |

| | I do sell Tupperware and it is our best selling item. The ease to chop is sensational. To wash just rinse. Some party groups I do when we get a new comer they say Oh my gosh you need to become a member of our Happy chopper club. There is noone in the group that hasn't got one. Try doing a salsa for your brushetta it is done in 30 sec. | | | |

| | I have the old one that yes, you did have to dismantle and cut everything up smaller. There is a new version out. I don't have it yet, but now that I have read the comments....I might need one hee hee | | | |

| | I only use it for onions but it has stopped the tears. I make homemade tomato sauce and use a few kilos of onions it took me forever before the happy chopper due to the tears but now it doesn't take long at all. | | | |

| | I too love my happy chopper, I am not good with onions and even partly chopping them to put in the Happy Chopper is enough to start the eyes watering but then I can easily finish off the onion tears free once its in there. On a normal onion I would have had to make a trip outside already to clear away the fumes from my eyes | | | |

| I also love my happy chopper, and yes, just take apart a few pieces and rinse
just so you know, Avon also has a version they occasionally have in their welbeing catalogues, which is exactly the same! and works just as well ! oh, and much cheaper too lol | | | |

| | I love the Happy Chopper also, what I like about is, my children can use it to cut onions, garlic etc safely. They enjoy helping with meal preparation, so I prefer them to use the happy chopper rather than a knife. Thumbs up to Tupperware for this great invention. | | | |

| | I love using mine when I only have a small amount to chop rather than putting the food processor to work - It's VERY HANDY. | | | |
