Hi, do you use this to chop onions?

I have not ever tried to chop a onion with it but i guess it would work. It cuts potatoes great.

I have not used vadalia but Prog.Onion chopper saves good amount of time for cutting onions.

I actually think it would work if you did a relatively coarsley chopped herbs/onion mixture. After all, in my opinion you want the flavor from the herbs, not the herbs themselves.

You can chop anything in this handy little chopper. I love mine and use it for everything.

I quarter the onion and do not use the bottom lid. Without the bottom you can chop more; I use a chopping board

It has a handle that you turn to chop things into smaller pieces. It is perfect for salsa or chopping onions to fry. There is a slicer as a separate attachment. I'm not sure if that answered your question.

Yes, but within the smaller scale. It's not as powerful, but need not be for a smallish bowl. It also lacks the attachments of a full sized FP, such as grating and slicing disks. If I only require a chopping blade and the job fits in it, I always use this instead of the large FP.

That's the one thing I liked about this chopper, it actually chops. When you put an onion in, for example, you'll get little squares left as if you had taken a Chef's knife and chopped it by hand. If you continue to push the pulse button, then you'll get more of a mush than chopped consistency. My other "choppers," Cuisinart and KitchenAid, turn the onion into mush right from the start so I can't use them to "chop" anything. Hope this answer helps!

Yes. It's the handiest little gadget. I cut onions into big chunks and pulse them till they're just right, then freeze them. Always have chopped onions on hand. Same for carrots and similar veggies. Haven't tried kale yet.

Don't Know. I know if you keep chopping onions with it they get really mushy!! I really just use it to dice onions and garlic for my tomato sauce. I have to be careful that I don't turn the handle too many times.

Yes it does. It is also great for chopping onions, parsley, mint and tomatoes

Yes to onion, potato and carrrots. Should be OK for beetroot. Easy to clean. Only had for three months blades are still sharp. I really like it for doing the chopping that I need. Warranty is one year.

It's great for onions. It also works fine for firm tomatoes, but has a little trouble if the tomato is a softer variety or a little overripe.

It will chop them in the chopper attachment, but definitely more on the wet side. I use if for chopping onions all the time though. Not so good for tomatoes, if I may say.

I love this chopper. It cuts onions and other vegetables to the size you want just by turning the handle. The more you turn the finer it chops.You should cut the vegetables up a little. For onions I cut into quarters and turn the handle about 3-4 times. I cut up baby carrots (I have not tried the larger carrots) and they turn out great. The electric chopper I have just gets to bogged down with onions and other vegies. I will save it for chopping nuts. This chopper does require that you hold onto to it so it won't move, which can be a little cumbersome, but it is worth the effort.

I think you could - just remember to follow the instructions on how long the spurts of chopping should be. But I would use this for the chopping and then to puree I would use one of the hand blenders - that would make it really smooth.

Hi, I never used it for onions but it should work. Only use the juices for pomogrante juice. Rainer
