The holidays are just around the corner, and if your hands are full of whole vegetables needing prepping, this extraordinarily handy handheld chopper may save you hours of prep time in the kitchen. With 15,000 5-star ratings, the Fullstar veggie chopper is a bestseller on Amazon and a favorite for its ability to slice, dice and spiralize hard and soft vegetables (and fruits!) with a firm push of a hand on its lid. This 11-in-1 tool has its own container that fits each of its various pieces, turning it into a makeshift mandoline that lets you swipe and slide veggies into perfectly cut slices, grate cheese in coarse or fine shreds, juice fruits and so much more. Although the chopper has been $49.99 for the better part of 2024, today it’s 40% off and the lowest price it’s been all year. Grab it while the deal is still going!
The box-shaped chopper comes with four interchangeable blades. Two grid-shaped stainless steel blades (which are very sharp, according to both the brand and reviewers) offer food preppers the ability to evenly dice vegetables in two different sizes with a quick thwack, and two round-bladed inserts are included for turning veggies like zucchini into elegant curls or ribbons. Cut vegetables will drop into the attached bowl, making prep (and cleanup) an absolute cinch. It also has soft-grip handle and a non-skid base for safe operations, along with a safety lock.
This model also features three mandoline blades, a few grater options, a juicer and a piece that separates egg yolks and whites. Also included is a blade-protective glove, which resists cuts if your hand slips on a vegetable when operating the mandoline. And you should definitely wear it — many reviewers note they’ve cut themselves on the mandoline due to its sharpness.
Read some of the rave reviews below, or just go ahead and nab one at Amazon before your next cooking shift sneaks up. It’ll save you time with meal prep, cutting veggies for holiday dinner and so much more.
“Been using one of these for years. Used to get the ‘as seen on TV’ version, but they tended to break after a while. This style has been going like gangbusters for a lot longer and I think will probably outlast me. It’s one of those tools that when you first use it you ask yourself why you’re just know finding out how much of a timesaver it is.” — Amazon Customer
“We had to chop pounds and pounds of onions to help make vats of soup for a soup sale. My husband thought I was nuts for volunteering us for this job but that is because he did not know what I knew, which was that I’d seen this chopper recommended on several cooking videos and was just looking for a reason to purchase it for our home and this was just the reason I needed! The chopper arrived quickly, as promised, and as fast as I peeled the onions, he chopped them! In fact, he had to wait for me to finish peeling the onion a few times. He really LOVES using this chopper and now looks for recipes that call for chopped vegetables and fruits. He has taken over the cooking the last few years now that I am not well and for the first time, he is smiling as he preps the foods....guys and their gadgets, huh? This chopper does all sorts of chopping, dicing and slicing in various sizes and shapes and does it very well. Clean up is easy, too, because it can be put in dishwasher. Of course, the reason it does such a great job is because the blades are precise and sharp so be smart and be careful when using this chopper to ensure that you are only chopping food and not your fingers! We are both very pleased with this purchase and highly recommend it.” — Content Consumer
“I bought this for my husband for Christmas. I’ve had surgery and lately he’s been cooking more than myself. The first time he used it, he was making Etoufee. Which requires a lot of chopping. After a few minutes of chopping he came to tell me how much he loves it. Since then, every time he “chops” he reminds me how much he loves it. Everything about it, the ease of use, the ease of washing, and how well it keeps chopping. Since I first bought it, my neighbor saw my husband using it and has since also bought one. To my dismay, My husband has always said, guys like practical useful gifts, After 28 years of marriage, I finally found the perfect gift for my husband, practical, useful, and I would add guy gadgety, ????” — Katie Wright
“So sharp and smooth, easy to use and pretty rugged. Sliced potatoes with so little effort that I hardly even felt it when the tip of my thumb went through.” — Bruce Alge
“Fast & Easy!!! But, beware.. super super sharp which is a GREAT thing when chopping. Not so good on fingers. The only reason I got cut (and even then it was like a thin surface only paper cut.. but still hurt & bled a good bit),was because the initial tray I put in for chopping was a little stuck, when trying to get it out, and my finger just happened to be in the wrong place and got a small, but painful cut. But just be careful and enjoy. It has to be super sharp to do what is needed!” — DixieChristian
“This chopper has given me back so much time over the holidays and at all meal prep. Need a chopped onion? Cut one in half, add to the chopper, press down and voila! You now have a chopped onion. It works for carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers. Anything you need to chop, slice, ribbon or julienne. The blades are extremely sharp and have remained so after a year of heavy use. The kit comes with cleaning tools so when you chop celery or herbs, cleaning everything out of the crevices is easy. Thanksgiving was a real test for this but I got all the prep done chop-chop! (See what I did there?” — Janeen Brinkley
“I’ve been putting off buying this for a couple of years thinking this was a waste of money. IT’S NOT!!! This is so sharp - so BE CAREFUL!!! I normally like chopping up veggies/fruits myself. I have a small electric chopper but it chops so fine that I don’t use it often. This makes chopping veggies for salads soooo fast. We have been eating more salad thanks to this. I also used it to slice up some potatoes for fries in the airfryer ... yummy!!! I was able to get rid of a few items in the kitchen that this replaced. I can’t wait to try out the rest of the attachments. I’m sure they won’t fail to amaze me either.” — Bucklgirl
