You might have seen the new, hilarious, commercial from that crazy guy who sells the Sham Wows. His new gadget is the Slap Chop and it’s actually a nice step up from normal choppers.

I first saw the commercial while I was up late at night eating nachos. I had actually spent about 20 minutes chopping all my onions, peppers, beans and cheese and nuking it all in the microwave. I nearly missed the funny commercial because I was slap-chopping so long!

Watch the full Slap Chop commercial

The funniest line came when he was talking about tearing up while chopping onions, “Life’s hard enough as it is, you don’t need to cry anymore.”

That was hilarious, but so true. I hate tearing up and blowing my nose every time I want some onions.

I had gotten one of the push-down choppers before, but it didn’t work so well. The blades were positioned in an X so all kinds of food would get stuck in the empty spaces between the blades and sit there while I chopped the rest of it far too small.

The thing that caught my eye was how the blades on the Slap Chop were situated, they were in a W shape with very little space between the chopping areas.

When it arrived — along with a great cheese grating gizmo — the Slap Chop actually lived up to the late-night hype.

I made myself a batch of nachos in about two minutes; most of that time was used finding all the veggies in my fridge. I even wiped down the blade in the minute that the nachos were sitting in the microwave.

I have to say I’m quite impressed with the food chopper. And the cheese grater was fantastic for pasta dinners.

Check it out yourself and buy a Slap Chop, you will be happy.

Slap Chop Review by john keay, January 31, 2010

I went through the review and read many complaining about food getting stuck in between blades when you try to slap chop them.

Many also seem to also love it and do not seem to have this problem some of us are facing of food sticking between blades.

It would really help if those who are happy with this product tell us exactly what we are doing wrong.

Is there some trick so that the food we try to dice don’t get stuck. That would really help. Thank you.

I just began using the Slap Chop I got for Christmas and this thing works well enough. It’s not great and I’m glad I didn’t pay for it, but it’s better than slicing and dicing with just a knife. My biggest problem is the plastic guard broke the very first slap I gave it! I think I’m going to check out Pampered Chef to see if I can get the original, sturdier version!

I got it, and it works great. i once put in the onion the wrong way and it got stuck, but if you use it the other way, it works perfect. i havent used pam for the non stick idea, but i might try it. its fun and its cheap. i found it in markham for 20 bucks no tax, which turns out to be the same as ordering it and getting two for the same amount (they said for 20 bucks, pay the s&h extra, add two for canadian orders) which will turn to be about the same. i havent used the grater, but hey, if i dont have to chop onions any more, then this has done its job…

Wow, I can tell you this thing probably works well, but “beware of imitators?” ha ha this is the same damn chopper I had over ten years ago made by Pampered Chef. Not a new invention, people.

There is an imitator out there that looks pretty much identical. The box is the same. Both have a pictures of Vince, Say as seen on TY, Claim to both have a 10 year warranty. The imitator has weaker blades, flimsy plastic gard and no 10 year warranty inside. The write up is even missing words and has odd spaces. When u push it down it seems stiff.piece of crap! The one that i think is real….not sure though…has a bar going through the blades where as the other does not. The blades also seem a bit thicker.

Slap Chop Review by eric buxton, November 11, 2009

I think that if they spent more money on the materials to manufacture it, it would be a very good product. The blade won’t rotate as it goes up so it keeps cutting the same spot. It feels like it will break to pieces if it’s used for any period of time, like if I was to make a pot of spaghetti. I’ve only used it once on a mango. I bought it for $16 Can. I would consider paying evan $30 if they’d just stop making it as cheaply as they are!

Slap Chop Review by Doons, November 10, 2009

We have received our slap chop and quite frankly are not impressed with the product. Vegetables continually are stuck in the blades to the point where they become mush. Aside from this particular problem, we also take issue with the charge. Is it really 25.00 USD to ship this product to us? If we had known that, we never would have ordered. The product was nearly the price of the shipping!!!!!!

Slap Chop Review by Mystillate, October 15, 2009

  • Not Rated

I really don’t understand all the good reviews of this product. I bought it today because I was going to be doing a lot of cooking that required a whole lot of dicing. The blade wouldn’t go any further than about an inch and a half away from the cutting board unless I removed the plastic guard. Everything I tried to chop got wedged between the blades. I ended up having to dice everything with a knife. I’m returning it to the store tomorrow. Absolute garbage.

I’m lovin the Slap Chop. Great for cutting up stuff for my 10 month old, like grapes, bananas, turkey, cheese, etc. Sure some things stick to the blades, big deal… its a lot of fun and my 3 year old likes to cheer me on. Love the cheese grater too, I have 3 others that don’t work well or are broken that I can throw out, this one has a better design.

For all the whiners, what did you expect for 20 bucks? And of course they overcharge the shipping, they need to make their money somehow. Go to a kitchen store if you don’t like it and pay more for similar gimmicky products you’ve never seen work.

Amazing amazing amazing!!!!!Saves time and a lot less effort…a must own for anybody on the go…I can prep a full healthy meal in minutes, and for the BBQ’s its a must have around. For all those people whining about tomatoes and potatoes…suck it up babies, its 2 things it doesn’t work for!!! but for everything I have used it for its worked amazingly, I now own 2 backups as well!

Gotta love the commerical. I really wanted to like this product. I bought it at Walgreens for twenty dollars–no shipping charges and no cheese grater either (I didn’t need that anyway). All right–here’s the truth. I love fresh mushrooms. If you’re just chopping large, white fresh mushrooms, they get stuck inbetween the blades. In fact, just about everything gets stuck in the blades, maybe about 1/3rd of the food you’re trying to chop. But it did a good job with green pepper and onions. Although it did de-skin the half onion, it took a lot of the onion with the skin–lots of waste. But it’s fun to use. Not a bad product, but not great. A good party conversation piece. A sharp knife still works much better. Oh, it chopped nuts well, but not smaller nuts like peanuts–they got stuck too. It’s great for walnuts and pecans. I don’t think I’d buy it again.

I purchased the slap chop from ShopTV Canada and have to say the product works great. I still say Vince in the commercial is the creepiest guy ever and looks like Mo from the simpsons.

I must admit, when I saw the slap chop commercial I was enthralled at watching how well Slap Chop worked on Vince’s nuts.

Unfortunately, when I tried it on my own, I discovered that Slap Chop works far better than anticipated.

We already have 5 children, but since trying it so effectively on my own nuts, I can happily state that we won’t be having any more.

My wife is so thrilled that I don’t mind that my shipping and handling charges cost more than a carton of condoms. It might be a little painful to some, but it was so easy to clean.

Thank you Slap Chop!

Just bought one of these things. I saw a similar product 20 years ago that did not work well and I should know better. The thing comes apart while you are using it hakf the time and I woulod not look for it to last very long based on the way it is constructed. It would not chop peppers worth a damn, leaving large parts att6ached to the skin. All in all, I think you would be better off putting the twenty bucks into a good paring knife. It did work well on peeled onions, but that is about the extent of its effectiveness. No good on anythinhg with a skin on it at all.

My mom did Pampered Chef for a living…. that was 10 years ago and she uses her “slap chop” to this day. Its durable and chops EVERYTHING! This slap chop commercial makes sure they say “beware of imitators” but they are the imitators. I got this in the mail just to see if it would compare to Pampered Chef… It is exactly what I thought It would be. A piece of junk. Not worth my time. If you want something durable and long lasting I would go with something a whole lot better. Pampered Chef. And its dishwasher safe and comes apart just as easily as this knock off.

Buyer beware! The company is crooked. I ordered 1 Slap Chop online and by the time I printed out the confirmation slip it said I had ordered 3. I phoned the company for 3 business days they couldn’t find my order. I asked them not to ship 3 out, but they told me it had already been shipped….even though they couldn’t find my order??? When I was told I’d have to ship it back and pay for the shipping I was livid. Told them I’d be heading straight to the better business bureau. They ended up taking off $25 in shipping in a pathetic attempt to resolve my complaint.
Of all the vegetables I’ve tried it on, onions are about the only item this thing works on. I haven’t even tried the Graty. I have no idea what I’ll do with the other 2, wouldn’t even want to give them as gifts. Stay clear of this product and company.

This is a piece of garbage. The company is dishonest. I tried to cancel after ordering at 3 hours after, was told to call back in 24 hours. At that time I was told it already shipped, which was a lie because the email said it shipped 8 days later. Unfortunately, I opened the box. The Slap Chop and the Graty are both garbage, flimzy and don’t work well. Slap Chop is hard to take apart and hard to put back together. One star is too high of a rating. These people must have been paid to rate it. Buy Pampered Chef, it is sturdy and works wonderfully smooth.

I am not impressed with the Slap Chop. How did you chop the onions with it? I tried halving and quartering the onions and then tried to use it and the onion just got stuck on the blad and wouldn’t chop.

I just got a slap chop in the mail, and it is bar-none the flimsiest item I have ever seen. The plastic is not even tupperware thick. I am sending it back today. You can barely get it back together when opened-up without nearly breaking it. How could you POSSIBLY be recommending this to unsuspecting people?

Slap Chop Review by Karen, February 17, 2009

  • Not Rated

The slapchop is total garbage. It does not work. The food remains stuck in the blade; the tomatoes get smashed instead of chopped; the lettuce becomes pulp! And they charge a ridiculous amount of money for shipping and handling.($12.95 for a product that costs $19.95). Overall this is highway robbery. Do not waste your time or money. Rather save your strength and use a good old fashioned sharp knife.
I now have to pay additional money to return the product to the company!

Said something like, “If you call now-in the next 20 mins (cause we can’t do this all day) LOLOL” He makes me laugh in every commercial!!!* The Slap Chopper is awesome!

SLAPCHOP WORKED VERY WELL
CHEESE GRATER IN THE GARBAGE–MORE TROUBLE THAN IT;S WORTH
YOU HAVE TO CUT THE CHEESE INTO VERY SMALL PIECES AND THEN THEY STICK TO THE CUTTER AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

This slap chop is not a new idea. It’s a knock off of a tool offered by Pampered Chef many years ago. But, if its anything like the chopper from PC, its a dandy.

The Slap Chop company is a rip off. I only ordered one but received two and was billed for two. The company does not want to reimburse me the full shipping charges to send the unwanted one back.

It works well enough, but I wish it was a larger capacity.

Creating professional quality salad bases and chopping vegetables for large batches is rather annoying, considering the device only has about 1/2 of a cup actual capacity before food will begin to back up into the blade housing. A 4-cup capacity slap-chop would allow for not only single servings of diced vegetables, but also open up the opportunity for commercial use too.

Oh, and I loved Vince’s nuts.
