About this product

This vintage 1970s Federal Housewares food chopper includes a clear glass jar, gold plastic top lid, and glass bottom protector with a plastic disk. It has a 2-cup capacity, stands 10 inches tall, and has a 4-inch diameter. Made of glass, plastic, and steel, this manual food chopper features a straight blade edge. It weighs 12 ounces and is an original piece from the United States. The transparent glass allows visibility during chopping. The retro design with gold and white accents fits vintage kitchen collections. It is medium-sized and operates by hand, requiring no electricity.

Our take

This Federal Housewares chopper from the 1970s is another nice vintage find. The clear glass jar is helpful for monitoring progress, and the 2-cup size is decent for small tasks. The gold plastic lid gives it a retro flair, but it feels a bit flimsy. The steel blade works okay, though you need to apply steady pressure. It's easy to clean by hand. At $30.00, it's similar to its counterpart but with a slight weight difference. I'd say it's more of a collectible than a daily driver. For occasional use, it's fine, but don't expect modern efficiency.
