Crank Chop Review: Put to the Test!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.ย. 2017
- To those who say I'm pulling too slowly...yes, I did pull slowly at first until I got the hang of it! This is cheap plastic and I wanted to get a feel for how durable it and the string would be. Crank Chop is a manual food processor pitched by Vince Offer. Today I put it to the test with carrots, strawberries & blueberries, ice, tomatoes, celery, cheese, greens, and onion.

People are complaining that everything comes out mushy. The same thing would happen if you put these foods in an actual food processor, the thing works great for what it is
That's a good point.
Not really. In a real food processor food gets chopped and they isn't continually smoothed around by the blade more after that while you're trying to "chop" other food
I wouldn't complain that things are mushy, but I would complain about what a terrible job it does at chopping things evenly. That onion was the worst example, huge chunks mixed with tiny specks, that's not going to cook evenly at all. Other chopping products, even products like the slap chop or its millions of twins, would do a far better job at producing equally sized cuts.
@@akashic7348 I mean he did very few pulls, I'm sure if you did like 15 or 20 the onion would be much more evenly cut into small pieces
Also in the ad i shows what it can do it mushes and blends everything together and the slap chop chops it so idk why people are complaining
3 blades
Probably spins 8 times
3×8=24
That's about the best explanation I've heard!
Nice logic !
Haylie Reyes (that guy is just dumb) how are you going to insult somebody and can't even type out a complete sentence smh🤦🏾♀️

Uriel Lopez ye
Huh? Feta cheese and cheddar are very different. Feta crumbles easily. Of course theres a difference in textures.
Fighting Viking think you missed the part where it sounded sarcastic 🤔
Ur Nan no?
Alex B There was no sarcasm.
Yeah bud you tell him......glad the cheese police are here.🤣😂
Sharp cheddar is way harder than feta
Would be way better if after each pull it let out a barnyard animal sound.
Hilarious!
I had one of those toys as a little kid
Pocket slaughterhouse.
What, like the “slap my nuts” video?
I think you need less pulls for less mushy results.....
it's supposed to be mushy.
Every food processor does that
i got both the crank chop and a "no name" version from germany. the crank chop feels just a little more cheaply produced and the blades are fixed in position. The german one has blades that rotate on an axis of their own, which means more flexibility if one blade gets a little stuck but the other two blades rotate on their own. That can reduce overall stress on the pulling cord and less obstruction while pulling. The german one does cost 35$ but all in all feels more durable. Long time usage will tell. I usually pull maximum of 3 to 4 times depending on the ingredients. It saves incredible amounts of time and in result you cook more healthy meals easier.
@@Brotothamaxx "you know the Germans make good stuff"
I got a version of this from Hollar for $3.00. My Mom uses it and loves it. She has arthritis and has trouble using a knife and doesn't want to drag out a big food processor for small jobs. I recommend it. HSN and QVC also sell similar choppers.
QueenB you lied. There are NO choppers on Hollar. I just looked.
Riordan McKay shut up your a douche to call her and her mom stupid
what's wrong with you calling people's mum dumb!!
Daizy Monnie
these niggas need to take a Xanax. then maybe 3 more. probably escalate to 10 more pills. 1 more to go 15 Xannies in.
Very good comment
Feta cheese is easier to break up and cheddar is a lot harder to break up and crumble so it would make a huge difference in the results
CodeRedCody im pretty sure he was being sarcastic
@@-Sirens- he wasnt
I just watched 7 minutes of this in class before I realized I had absolutely no reason to watch this
If you pull it slow like that its just moving the stuff around and not cutting it.
BEYBLADE BEYBLADE LET IT RIP
@@Carbon-cringe-human exactly.
Well feta is wayyy less dense than sharp cheddar
Tell him Lauren
3:10 you just have to wipe it down with a shamwow
I got this for my wife to use in our RV. I really wasn't paying much attention to her operation. I have to state here that unlike me my wife does not cherish owners manuals. Anyway, she chopped up some garlic and when complete I asked for her assessment. She said that if we were survivors of the Apocalypse and without electicity she might consider using it. Asked why, "I am not impressed with it's cutting ability". I called her attention to the "Red Blades". She didn't remove the guard. With the red guard removed it cuts much better. Think she will keep it.
This is golden
Omg same i was thinking abt the apocalypse
Hahahahahahaha
Lol
LOL I remember that guy! I haven't seen him in any commercials in a long time. I'm not sure about the Crank Crop, it will be interesting to see a follow up to see how long it last. Thanks for another great review! Oh and that's an awesome t-shirt! 😁
2¢ Chicks right it's more how sharp the blades will last
Do the little egglettes
Wasn't that the shamwow guy? Didn't he get arrested for sex crimes or something?
That sounds right. Hope she was alright. Also, why do successful/famous people feel the need to screw up a good thing by losing their shit?
Just saying that you need to crank it fast not slow
think ill stick to my knife, that looks like i am trying to start my lawnmower or weedwhacker. lol
ken strampe thats the reasom why its easy
As someone with a tremor, there are days i struggle to safely use a knife. My disorder also left my right arm temporarily paralyzed for about 3 months a few years back (inflammation suffocated a nerve) and I couldn’t safely chop anything for weeks and weeks. I used my mini food processor a LOT during that spell!
With the exception of the strawberries and blue berries if you mix the rest of it together with some chives, pepper, Tabasco Sauce and s sprinkle of salt you'd probably have a halfway decent chip dip.
the string will break
collin huey listen, they practically use shoelaces for parachutes and that’s to hold you. But yes, over time the string will wear out and finally give in.
A very strange ghostly squid its not the smae tho youre constantly putting that string under tension
A very strange ghostly squid
They use 550 paracord for parachutes and they use several lines of attachment.
I don’t think a cheap made in china gadget is springing for 550 paracord
That said. The return spring and ratchet pawls will probably bust before the cord does.
I had similar one, and use it quite often. String is quite strong, it also survived the dishwasher.
The whole thing is cheap plastic. What are you expecting?
the autofocus on your camera is on point
Feta cheese is very soft and usually used crumbled or diced. Cheddar is a hard cheese though, and it is usually grated. It is not common to use the foodprocessor knife on cheddar, one would use the coarse grater, which this hand crank thing of course do not have. An easy manual option is a Norwegian cheese slicer, which makes thin slices. You can spread them out on a pizza or slice a stack into strips for a salad. ☺️
I like your videos. You keep things simple and explain them clearly and articulately. The side-by-side comparisons with similar products also helps keep the evaluation real.
Have one very similar - love it! Don’t have expensive food processor so my small chopper works beautifully.
It's funny thinking about adding this to the other things in your kitchen. Making meals must be an interesting As Seen On Tv symphony some days, haha
I'd rather be Edward Scissor Hands
With my knives
213thewood great movie
I have a similar brand and LOVE it! I mostly just use it for onions, but it also works well for mushrooms.
I love your videos!!! You and 2 cent chicks are my favorite channels to watch! You both do such a great job at reviewing products! So unbiased and you really put the products to the test! Thanks so much!!
The pulling action reminds me of a seatbelt getting caught, and how you have to pull it all the way out to get it to return.
I think they get "24 blades" from how many times the blade insert spins on each full pull.
I have one very similar made by Starfrit and use it all the time. Wonderful tool. Have had it for years and still very sharp and functional. Use it any times a week
I got one similar from QVC. I love mine. I bought one for my Mom and she loves hers. Ours has never had problems retracting backin.
$20? My black and decker food pro was like $30 at walmart. Rather spend $10 more and get a legit food pro... even still personally i dont use my food pro because clean up is a pain in the ass vs washing a knife and cutting board.
The only thing this is good for would be salsa.
I think this is popular for things like chutnies
mixwell1983 Vincent’s a man out of jail. He needs money.
Or guac
$20 is a joke, its literally a few bits of plastic
I'm pretty sure it's meant for people with arthritis. 20 pounds is insane. But it is better for someone that struggles with their hands, than a knife would be. Pretty sure you can get cheaper versions that work better anyway
Works OK but I am thinking that if the string breaks you're shit out of luck lol pardon my French lol. Thank you for the review it was very informative
10 year warranty
Great review! I don’t trust commercials. The sound that it makes is a great example of how they can alter the true results. Thanks for posting this!
I have something similar and I love it! Mine only has two blade, though, so it probably works a little more efficiently. It's excellent for crumbling tuna for sandwiches and salads. The trick is, in fact, quick, short pulls rather than long, slow ones
It's 24 blades because each rotation is 6 blades and each pull is 4 rotations so 4 times 6 is 24
Edit 3 blades with 2 side is technically 6 blades
24 knifes because each crank is like 8 spins
So far, I love mine. I found it on clearance for about five bucks, so I figured, why not? It chops boiled eggs for salads like a dream and is so much easier to clean than my other chopper (the kind you press the food through the blade grid to chop).
You've got to pull it back like starting a lawn mower. I've never had a problem, I love it! Have mine for 2 years now. I recommend it!
Take one the two sided blade as one blade,three blades and it claims it’s like 24 blades cutting so therefore in one pull the blades spin about 8 times and also the fact that I wasted 1 minute of my useless life typing this comment and also the fact that this comment will get buried in this comment section
Somm3st yup
I think if you didn't pull it so many times you would have better luck with it being a little more chunky :-D
I have something similar called chef'n. I love it. Great for finely chopped onion, peppers and celery. I've had mine almost 10 yrs. Still works great. 2 blades not 3
My dad has a version of this, I think it’s Tupperware branded and he uses it at least once a week. He really only uses it for onion and garlic, and thus I think it’s very useful because every time I’m there for dinner he makes me dice the onion, I’ve been replaced as the onion chopped and I’m happy with it.
Why u pulling so slow
It's gonna break soon it doesn't seem to be quality made
LV Streeter. It comes with 10yr warranty They say
LV Streeter yeah as seen on TV the product is better there than the reality when you buy it
Tony M return postage is more than product!
Just got mine and I love it!!
I like!! I'm a big ice eater!! And this could definitely save me from cracking my dang teeth , which I've done twice from crushing down on ice. I'm going to buy one. Also great with onions. A must have in my home. Thank you James, another great video. 😘
Feta cheese is softer
Holy shit it Walter White
I have one. Love it!!
Very good demo! If I chopped things, I would buy one based on what you showed us.
It looks like your making salsa or baby food. I like my veggies and fruit chopped into bigger pieces.
Looks like it was making tomato sauce.
🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝🍝
Leesa M enough emojis?
Leesa M ketchup = tomato sause
i have a similar one and it is really good! handy in a power outage or camping..
My mom has something like this, but it has a lever you turn in a circle. It works really well.
it’s like you r using a knife without force
Compared to the one made by Tupperware that has been out for quite some time, this one seems to be really bad...if you Want one that works then Tupperware is a much better option
Ruas Daniel My parents have that one and they love it! Sadly it broke once though and they had to have it replaced. Still seems a lot better than this...
I would rather have my Tupperware version. It stays together better. This lid doesn’t seem to lock in place and moved around while he was using.
Also, if your parents Tupperware version broke it is guaranteed for life.
We have the Tupperware one, the small and the large. They both work great! And a whole lot easier to use.
I'm using a similar product I bought on Amazon. It came with blades, a mixing attachment and an airtight lid and works really good. (Also got a stronger spring for pulling back the handle and curved blades which work better than straight blades.)
I’ve got a different brand with five blades and a bigger bowl. I love it. It’s my go to, ahead of the electric mini food processor.
It’s just fast and easy and does what I want. Got one for my adult kid and it is his go to chopper, as well.
Everything that comes out of it looks like mush 😖
Jim Zdziarski Uaeh cause it's CHOPPED up. And most things he's testing have juice in them
All chopped ingredient look like mush
It's cause all the things he used are juicy and wet. Plus he used a lot of pulls. More pulls = more chops
That’s the point
Jim Zdziarski STUPID
I have a device like this, but it’s from Tupperware. It works pretty well, and I think my best uses are for a quick rough chop on fairly dense foods, like nuts or onions.
There are at least two benefits of mine that I like versus the one you reviewed. Instead of a pull cord, it uses a crank that is geared 24:1. My lid disassembles (easily) to allow full cleaning inside!
Mine is an older version of this: www.tupperware.com/quick-chef-pro-system-9723.html
Yours costs 3x more
$69 .. jesus.
I have a different style that you pull the string as well. It works great! And I've had it for years now. It's the go-to gadget in my kitchen.
Freakin love your reviews
*Y O U ‘ R E G O N N A L O V E M Y N U T S*
You're lying Morgan.
Couldn't you edit out the sound in your editing?
one you got the pull down it functioned pretty well.
i wouldn't pay money for this, but i would use it.
excellent review
I have it and it works really good for me. I need to find more like this, I haven’t seen them again
I used the slap and chop. It was MEH. I prefer using a knife and my husband.
3:52 you should of said "further"!!!!! not "farther"!!!!
Fair enough. And it's "should have said" not "should of said" - so we're even! :-)
damn!
Farther is acceptable.
no grammar nazis
Great review thanx
We have been using this in India for many many years now. I remember the first time i used this was probably 20-25 years back. I love using this for beating eggs, instead of using a whisk or fork. You should try that. Just a few pulls and it's done.
I got one of these because I got a small 1bdrm apartment and a very SMALL kitchen with only one small square of my counter that I can use for food prep because the other counter is microwave then coffee maker, so this thing is perfect for me.
The crank chop works every time if you use is correctly. I take homemade chicken stir fry or even Chinese takeout (chicken with mixed vegetables) and I throw it in there. Mixes everything up for awesome flavor and it's more colorful so kids eat their veggies.
Great review
Bro, your camera skills and quality sure have came along way since this video. Lol.
My niece has this chopper & she LOVES it! She chopped all the veggies for the Thanksgiving peeps and beat me with a food processor, lol.
The problem I'm seeing with a few of the things you threw in coming out less than well-processed is your pull speed. If the blades aren't moving fast enough, the food is just gonna catch and drag rather than split.
I have a similar chop and I live by it! Got it off Amazon.
Ima pay respect to this man for buying a product from one of the best salesmen EVER, Vince is my idol lol
Wow! I admit, I am shocked. I didn't think it would do anything. Now I want one.
I'll be anxious to see how it holds up. I can't help but wonder with all the pulling and strain on that string, how long it will be before it breaks! Love this channel...always come here first if ever I am tempted to buy an as seen on TV product. As usual...great job!
I appreciate your comments Robin. I'm using this until my next update in a few months or until it breaks!
Wow! Been following you for a while but this is definetely a golden oldie. It doesn't even sound like you.
If this was the first vid of yours I ever saw, I would not be the fan I am today.
The best kitchen gadget for the lawn-mower-lover in your life
I have one that is by a different brand that my grandma got me from qvc and I love it
Worth the Money.
Vince did not lie to us.
My mom has own one of these for about 2 years already and it still works perfectly fine and she pulls it *super* fast and it doesn’t come out mushy.
Very helpful thankyou
Oh wow a blender that you operate by hand, what innovation!
So i have the Tupperware version. Usually only for garlic tho. But it doesn't have the same problem with the pull back. And the top can be easily dissambled to clean it. As it will collect grime.
It's such a great invention
I suppose in a pinch, for example when the power goes out and you still need to chop something, or maybe to throw in your camping supplies chest (if you're going to rough it and not use the RV).
WOW‼ Im AMAZED that it worked at all😱 I wonder how long it will work🤔
❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I saw this at my local Ross store for $4 tonight. Should have picked it up.
I got a similar one from amazon recently i love it 😍
“And I even have a broken hand!”
That girl had a broken hand and pulled it way faster out of the gate than this mans did
I was actually considering this little unit (so thanks for the share), but that noise! I don't know.
I think its very good for salsa and thats about it, for fresh salsa and beat up and chunky texture is ideal and i would argue it does better than a food processor
Hey, I use it everyday and it’s amazing 💯
Must be fun to own all these different gadgets around the house!
I am curious to know if you can also use this device for recycling plastic soda bottles, for instance ? The blades look pretty strong. I'm hoping to chop plastic up into little flakes.
I have a fancier model food processor (sort of wish I had gotten the simpler model but that’s a separate issue) and honestly this would be a lot quicker to chop a couple handfuls of mushrooms than the food processor. Sure, the food processor is less work in the chopping and much faster there but the cleanup is only really worth it if you have a LOT to chop.
I have been using a similar product for 2 years now. The string, container.... Everything has survived.
It does make things too fine or too thick
But if you were going to sauté onions or blend your initial sauce or make something like salsa this is perfect.
"..2 years." There's no need for "now".
Love the fact that you almost test all the products on t.v. from as seen on t.v. or the new cool what ever product like from bulb head .Com or celebrity endorsed so we don't just only see what little bit of truth a commercial will tell. Also have had an atomic lantern for months now works good even after a few accidental drops really liked your review on that.
Thanks for the comment Rena!
