Chops exceedingly well, but …
By Kathlyn Storey
As a chopper to use on a every day basis, this is unbeatable. The blades are much more substantial than on other merchandise of this size. However, you have to be very careful with the plastic bowl. The center division that holds the blade has begun to break. Currently half of the circular holder (in the middle) is gone. Although it will still hold the blade, if it breaks any more, it in all likelihood won’t. I’m going to have to find a alternate for the plastic bowl. October 18, 2005 update: Guess what? I contacted Black & Decker online, and they have a company that they refer you to that handles their alternate parts. In this case they are sending me a complimentary new 3 cup plastic bowl. I wish I could modify my rating upward; this is real client service. July 5, 2007 update: Since I received the alternate bowl, I have applied this appliance constantly, that is, three to five times a week. I have had no troubles with the center section of the alternate bowl. February 8, 2008 update: Note that when Amazon runs this item for $12.99, it is genuinely a screaming deal.
August 16, 2011 update: You know what? This thing is still going strong. I have had no disturb whatsoever with the substitute bowl. Just don’t stress this chopper out with something like chestnuts; those plainly need to be cut up by hand.

Quick & Easy!
By Kenneth W. Chapman
Ever wish you could chop up an onion in 2 seconds? It’s possible with this little beauty. Instant bread crumbs? No sweat! How when it comes to shaved ice? It’s a snap!
The Black & Decker EHC650 Ergo 3-Cup Food Chopper is not similar to anything I have used before. It’s SAFE and EASY to use. The best portion is the clean-up: There genuinely isn’t any. It has only three parts! There’s the cup, the powerful blade that slips into the cup, and the ergonomic top. The top is genuinely the motor – and it fits comfortably in your hand.
It’s so easy to use:T
Step 1: Take the one-pound chopper off the shelf.
Step 2: Take off the cover and fill the container.
Step 3: Put the cover on and push one of the two buttons (one’s fast and one’s slow).
Two settings – fast-pulse and slow-pulse – give you flexibleness in how coarse you want your feed to be chopped. It even purees!
The see-through container lets you see the feed as it is being chopped.
Don’t need all those chopped onions right now? Use what you need then pop the handy lid on the container and store it in your fridge.
I highly commend this product based on it is easy of use and ease of clean-up.
This is the best electric feed chopper I ever used.

To Use It Is To Love It, and easy clean up of all parts
By Bob Feeser
Two years ago I purchased the Black & Decker KEC600 Cordless Can Opener. Another super highly commended item. It is inexpensive, powerful, and convenient. It is cordless and sits in a reharging station, then you may take it to anyplace in the kitchen. After two years, the rechargeable battery at last started to get weak. So I ordered another one.
While browsing in the Black and Decker area, I came all over this B&D Ergo 3 cup feed chopper. Based on the reviews, I decisive to give it a try. Now I don’t recognise which one I like… no, love better. I use it to make fresh habit salad dressing. No more hand chopping garlic, now I fine chop it before sautéing for making sauce. The list is endless.
I have a 90 year old mother I take care of. When she complains with regards to the feed not being tender enough, I drop it in the chopper, the razor sharp blades spun at the slow or fast speed, and out comes a gorgeous puree. A quick pop into the micro to freshen up the heating, and she loves it.
I’m ordering another chopper. Why? Because I don’t ever want to go without it. Since it is a plug in the wall device, it wil in all likelihood last for 20 years. If mine gets dropped and breaks, I don’t want to take a prospect on not having one. Anything this good doesn’t last. It is just too great of an item for such a little bit of money. Additionally, I like the fact that it comes with a removable flexible bottom, that doubles as a lid when you want to put your blendings in the refrig, without having to scoop them out.
One reviewer commented that they wish they would offer the bottom container as a discerned item because it would be convenient, to have more than one. My logic is that for this kind of money, buy two. All bases are covered that way. The increased flexibleness is worth it.
One other comment, worth mentioning, is that the top which houses the motor is easy to clean, even altho their are those who complain, that it is not submersible. I have been washing mine by turning it upside down, soaping, and then running it underneath hot water, while spinning it around. The water pouring only hits the underdside of the center on out, and effortlessly pours over the outer lip, without ever getting anyplace near the on off switch, or other sensible to water areas. That makes even the top easy to clean. The rest of the chopper is submersible, or dish washer safe. Additionally the blade is without apparent effort removable from the base, merely by pushing down on it, while giving it a quarter turn. Up it pops, ready for remotion and easy cleaning. Great for cleaning the 3 qt base also. No blades stuck in the bottom, making it difficult to clean.
The Black and Decker seems to be leading the pack with a three quart chopper, rather of the 1 1/2 qt like the competition. The 3 quart makes it huge sufficient to not have to use a full size blender, yet little sufficient to use regularly, without the further and added clean up. In addition it is a lot lighter to move around.
It is likewise attractively designed, and the buttons are ergonomically designed.
Overall I can’t commend this chopper enough. If your looking for something else to buy, to take vantage of Amazons minimum buy amount to qualify for free shipping, consider buying the Black and Decker cordless may opener. The KEC600 model is the one that I have and is getting the better reviews.
