I would have to say that my favorite thing about this food chopper is how quick/easy it is to put together/take apart. In addition, clean up is a breeze! It took me less than 5 minutes to clean up and put back!!! (You can use dishwasher if you prefer). Don’t let the size fool you on how powerful it is! For my family of 5, it makes the right amount of what we need (salsas, pesto, chopping onions, etc.)
