Advantages: Very Handy, Small, Dishwasher Safe, Practical Disadvantages: Noisy, Not to Be Extensively Used At One Time
...The kenwood minichopper is a great mini food processor! It does the job of a food processor but it is a lot smaller so it is more convenient to use in a domestic household! It can pretty much cut through anything with ease and is completely safe it that respect, there is no risk of small children disambiguating themselves due to finger insertion! The chopping blades will only engage once the lid has been clicked into place, this activates the security latch; thus providing absolutely no method of children hurting themselves! If you don't put in enough of whatever you are chopping, it has a habit of giving it one blow and everything gets splatted to the side as there is not enough in there! (Particularly with fruit) Another problem is it can be quite hard to clean out as the blades are very sharp!!! The Kenwood MiniChopper is also safe...

Advantages: Chops a variety of items. Value for money. Compact Disadvantages: Only one speed available
...I originally bought this product after breaking my previous mini food processor and am delighted with it. I am not entirely sure as to whether to call it a chopper or a blender as the gadget performs both functions brilliantly.
The first thing that attracted to me to this product was the price.

It is a very groovy looking gadget and nice to have something with more colour than just white or grey!
I rarely use the blend or whip function/blade but it has been fine with whipping cream.
The chopper is amazing. Having broken my previous kitchen gadget I am always a little dubious of what these small choppers can cope with but this one has...

...Actually it is the Kenwood MiniChopper but that was not quite so catchy.
The Kenwood MiniChopper is one of the handiest gadgets in my kitchen (and I love gadgets).
The marketing blurb says that it is useful for chopping nuts, meat and fish, blending fruit and cooked vegetables and making mayonnaise.
However, I would recommend it to anyone who likes to experiment in the kitchen, and this is why.
I make a lot of Continental dishes based around Filo pastry, cheese and or meat, and I find that this little gadget is ideal for testing quantities and mixtures for flavour and effect.
Also, when mixing herbs for background flavour I can test quantities of Coriander, Basil, Oregano and garlic to make sure that they bind together and do not overpower. And, as it holdsaround six fluid ounces of liquid it is the quickest way...
