About this product

This vintage Federal Housewares food chopper from the 1970s features a clear glass jar with a gold-colored plastic top lid. It has a 2-cup capacity and stands 10 inches tall with a 4-inch diameter. The chopper includes a glass bottom protector and plastic disk. Made of glass, plastic, and steel, it is a manual food chopper with a straight blade edge. The item weighs 11.5 ounces and is made in the United States. Its medium size and retro design make it suitable for chopping small amounts of ingredients. The transparent glass allows you to monitor the chopping process.

Our take

This Federal Housewares chopper from the 1970s is a solid manual tool. The 2-cup glass jar is clear, so I can see what's happening inside. The gold plastic top adds a vintage touch. However, the plastic lid feels a bit cheap and might not last forever. The steel blade is effective for nuts and herbs, but it struggles with bigger pieces. It's easy to clean, but the manual action can be a workout. At $30.00, it's a bit expensive for a vintage gadget, but it's a nice piece of kitchen history that still functions. If you like retro tools, this is a good find.
