How to choose a good vegetable cutter

When buying a vegetable cutter, you should pay attention to the following device parameters:

Principle of operation. According to this criterion, all vegetable cutters are divided into mechanical and electric. Mechanical varieties are simple and practical devices for chopping vegetables (usually boiled), cheese and boiled eggs. Electric kitchen tools are suitable for grinding food of any hardness.
Purpose. Appliances for home use have low productivity. Usually the power of these devices is enough to cut a small amount of vegetables in a short time. Professional equipment with high performance is used in catering establishments. It is designed for long-term loading and processing of large volumes of products.
Equipment. Modern models are equipped with a large number of nozzles (discs). The number of these accessories can reach up to 40 pieces. The shape of the pieces into which the products are cut depends on the type of nozzles. It can be cubes, bars, chips, straws, rings or slices. Manual vegetable cutters may include vegetable peelers, and brushes are sometimes supplied with electric devices to clean them.
Material. Vegetable cutters are made of plastic and metal. All-metal professional equipment withstands heavy loads and is designed for long daily use. It is made from stainless steel and aluminium. Choppers for home use are made from a combination of metal and food-grade plastic. Such vegetable cutters are cheaper, easy to clean, light in weight and attractive in appearance. Whether parts can be washed in a dishwasher should be indicated in the instructions.
