Kuhn Rikon Pull Chop 2-Cup Manual Food Processor - Fast, Cord-Pull

In this review of the Kuhn Rikon Pull Chop 2-Cup Manual Food Processor, the bottom line is simple: this is a compact, no-electricity chopper for anyone who wants faster small-batch prep without wrestling a full-size appliance. The unit shines when you need to chop onions, garlic, herbs, nuts or make small amounts of salsa or dressing quickly; a few pulls gives coarse pieces and more pulls produce very fine results. It is aimed at cooks who value control, quick cleanup and space-saving storage over high-capacity processing.

Key Features

• Pull-cord mechanism: Delivers fast, effort-saving chopping with each pull that spins the ultra-sharp blades so you control texture.
• Adjustable chop control: Fewer pulls give coarse results and roughly 15 to 20 pulls produce finely chopped or near-puree textures for dips and sauces.
• Compact 2-cup capacity: Ideal for small batches like dressings, salsas and single-serving prep while taking up minimal counter or cabinet space.
• Non-slip base: Keeps the container steady during use so the cord pulls transfer cleanly into blade action without sliding around.
• Easy cleanup and storage: The container is microwave- and dishwasher-safe and the blades have a protective cover for safe storage inside the bowl.

Who It's For

This chopper is well suited to home cooks, small households, and anyone who does frequent small-batch prep - think salads, dressings, herb chopping and quick salsas. It is particularly handy for those who want consistent control over chop size without using a large electric food processor.

It is not intended for large-volume processing or heavy-duty tasks like continual large nut grinding or making pounds of dough; shoppers who regularly prepare large batches should look to a higher-capacity electric processor instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Very quick results for small amounts, saving time on everyday prep.
• Compact and easy to store, with a protective blade cover that fits inside the bowl.
• Simple to disassemble and dishwasher-safe parts make cleaning straightforward.
• Sharp stainless steel blades maintain chopping performance across uses.

Cons

• 2-cup bowl is smaller than some expect, limiting it to small batches rather than large prep sessions.
• Manual pull action requires some repeated effort to reach very fine textures compared with a powered processor.
