Five Star Reviews: | 71% Love it February 18, 2017 I love this salad shooter. I really mostly use it to shred Cheddar cheese blocks. It works great. I had an older one that finally cracked so I bought this new one. I am very pleased with it. It is more powerful than the old one so it doesn't bogg down much at all. It is a little noisier than the old one, but I don't run it for very long...so I still give it 5 stars. This thing is a BEAST!! :-) June 20, 2016 I can't believe how well this works. I have a $300 Cuisinart food processor that I'd been using to process produce from our huge garden. It broke (again!) and I decided to take a chance on the Presto based on the great reviews. Wow, what a great machine. It actually shreds cleaner than the Cuisinart, no mush and glop like Cuisinart makes. It goes forever, cleans VERY easily, and extra parts are cheap and easy to order. I ordered the extra shredding blades from Presto, and then got another pusher assembly off eBay so I can trade off while one's in the dishwasher. During this time of year, I'm processing 30-50 lbs of zucchini at one time, twice or three times a week, mostly shredding it, and this machine just won't quit. And it's even faster if I'm slicing. I've also used it to shed a ton of cheese, and it does it beautifully, again much nicer than the Cuisinart and with less waste, and SO MUCH easier to clean. I love making salads to take for lunch, I can quickly slice and shred some veggies in the morning and just rinse the cones and set them out to dry. I absolutely love this thing!! Hurry before they run out! April 21, 2016 I bought mine in 2010 and it is used exclusively for chopping pecans and for that purpose there is nothing better. Yes, I know you can buy chopped pecans but what you are getting are essentially floor sweepings. If you bake and need chopped pecans you better chop them yourselves. I typically chop 10 lbs at a time and power is a requirement. In a few minutes I'm done and all the parts that get dirty go in the dishwasher. I find that the ripple cone is the best for nut chopping but mine is getting little cracks in the corners of the slicing insert. It still work well but I thought I would buy another cone. Go to Presto site and the ripple cone is no longer available but it is still included in the set sold here. I interpret this fact as it is available in the set but not as a part as an indication that it likely is no longer in production and they are just playing out the string. I could be wrong but when was the last time you saw a SaladShooter ad for this product that once was widely promoted? I see me buying what to me is essentially a $50 ripple cone but at $10 a year I'm still getting value for money. I soon will corner the market for never used slicing cones. I just can't bear throwing them out. Pleasantly Surprised February 18, 2015 I was skeptical about this one. I was perfectly happy with my mandolin until I sliced the top of my pinky off. Obviously, I needed a new system, but a saladshooter? There are a lot of parts, but they all come off of the motor section and go right into the dishwasher (the motor section wipes clean and fits in the space in the drawer left when I threw out my 2 mandolins). One twist to the right mounts the chute to the motor section. The slicer/shedder cone fits into the circular base of the chute and one twist to the right of the plastic ring secures the slicer/shredder cone to the chute (lining them up becomes second nature after the first couple of times). That's it. Fill the chute (or half-chute for smaller amounts) loosely, plug it in, and use the adjustable food guide to push the food through the slicer/shredder cone into a bowl. I've had this item for 2 weeks, and I've used it at least once a day for salads, soups, snacks, side dishes. I've sliced carrots, celery, green peppers, mushrooms, onions, potatoes, cheddar and parmesan cheeses and nuts. It's as easy to disassemble as it is to assemble. Rinse and put all non-motor parts in the dishwasher, stack and zip-lock-bag them when they're clean. One of the other reviewers pointed out that celery can jam, and I found this to be true (it gets a little stringy, but it's useable). So, as daunting as this machine appears to be, I found it surprisingly quick and pilot-friendly. Not only would I recommend it to a friend, I bought one for my sister-in-law for her birthday. Awesome, though stains easily April 1, 2014 After grating off a chunk of my pinkie, I've had enough of my evil grater and started looking for a faster and safer solution to my shredded carrots addiction. Following tons and tons of research, I bought the supremely ugly SaladShooter. It does what it is advertised to do, and does it beautifullly. I can shred 5 lb of carrots in minutes. MINUTES! Washing them and cutting off all the ends takes more time. Just why does it have to be so very ugly? It also stains from certain veggies right away, in my case obviously carrots, so I wish it came in red or black instead of offwhite. I uploaded pictures to show the uglyness of orange stains. | 75% Would recommend highly! May 11, 2017 Replaced a Black and Decker grater that only lasted a year. This one takes up less room, and is easier to clean up! Would recommend highly! Absolutely Wonderful! May 9, 2017 I wish I had this years ago. I have a salad daily. Now I no longer have to hand shred cheese & carrots; I shred the entire package of cheese, and lots of carrots at a time so I have several days' worth on hand. Clean up is fast & easy. I don't know why they no longer advertise on TV, and I didn't see them at two large retail stores where you'd think you'd find them. Thanks to Amazon, I have one & will never be without this fabulous product. I used to think the answer was a high-quality, expensive food processor, but that would involve a lot more clean up. The Salad Shooter is the answer. I'm happy I did April 7, 2017 This is so helpful and makes cutting veggies faster and easier. I use this a lot. Not only do I use it for salads but I use it to cut up veggies for soups. I have even used the shredder for cheese. I bought this one to replace my old one. I'm happy I did. I recommend this to anyone who would like to make cooking a little easier. Presto 02910 Salad Shooter July 9, 2016 I wanted a food processor but I had one a few years ago and it was an expensive piece of kitchen ware that just did not work. It spun too fast and would not slice properly so I got rid of it. Enter my new Salad Shooter. I tried it out immediately after I cleaned it off, right out of the box. Made nice easy to chew not too thin, not too thick slices and in just a couple minutes I had sliced a potato, celery, an onion and 2 carrots. I now can carve up salad makins and shred up cheese or potatoes for hashbrowns very fast and not spend any time standing at the counter. I have a bad hip and this cuts that standing time down to just a couple minutes. Peeling some items is necessary but for the most part, cutting veggies is now much less of a chore.I recommend this little gem, or its' "Professional" big brother. Thank you Amazon and thank you Presto. You can't miss with this, you willbe very happy July 8, 2016 Short Version: Excellent product, easy to use, easy to store, doesn't take up a lot of cabinet space with its slim profile and cut my prep time by at least 1 hour when I made my beloved Thai Green Papaya Salad, which was my sole reason for buying this. I cut the papaya lengthwise and feed the "spears" in from the top. I got an entire papaya shredded in 4 minutes vs at least 30 minutes!Long Version: The first time I made Thai Green Papaya Salad I shredded the papaya using a box grater. A green papaya has the texture of a hard cucumber and can be a bit slippery. On a downward stroke I sliced the corner of my thumb knuckle requiring surgery and occupational therapy (seriously!) so I bought a mandolin with the hand guard. But it was still too hard to control that wet papaya and took soooo long to grate enough (because when it takes this long, you might as well make a double batch). The harder it was to make this salad, the more I wanted to make it. I wasn't going to buy a food processor, too expensive, too big and the mini choppers did only that. This has options and great ratings both here and on a competitor's website (which had it for the same price). I got it super fast and am very happy. Love This Little Machine! January 20, 2015 I was very pleasantly surprised when I received this Presto Salad Shooter today, and used it to grate Cabot's SHARP Cheddar, and Monterey Jack Cheeses! Easy to assemble, easy to use, shredded BOTH cheeses with a minimal of effort, and virtually NO waste. Clean up was a snap! I did NOT use a dishwasher for the washable parts - I washed them by hand, and they cleaned up beautifully. I used HOT water and a fat bottle brush to clean inside the food chute, and cleaned the shredder cone with a sponge - taking care not to cut my fingers. It literally took less than two minutes to clean all three items by hand. Tomorrow I will be slicing peppers and summer squash for roasted veggies. I have Lyme's Disease, and it has affected my hands, so I am EXTREMELY PLEASED with this unit! It has saved me pain and time. I hope that it lasts as long as some reviewers have stated that it lasted for them! | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Four Star Reviews: | 14% Love it, but don't use it as much as ... June 26, 2017 Love it, but don't use it as much as I thought I word. Only 2 of us. I will use it when I could for a larger group. Holiday especially.Works great. Exactly what I expected March 9, 2017 Works great, easy to use and clean. Is great for those times you don't want to lug out your food processor ! Makes easy work of grating, & slicing aside from clean-up and storage. November 28, 2016 A little bulky but, plenty of power. We grind beets, carrots, radish, cauliflower, potato, and apples and it barely slows down. Makes life much easier for our elderly mother since grating by hand is pretty hard for her these days. Kind of bulky to find storage for all the attachments and unit. Shooter makes for healthier eating March 20, 2016 Works well overall and a time saver. Really noisy as others have stated. Until I became familiar with the shooter it was awkward to assemble. Shredder is great. Instead of cutting and shredding vegetables daily for a salad, I can do a lot of prep ahead of time enabling Me too have veggies over several days. One good benefit now I shred a different variety of vegetables into my salad than before because of time and/or laziness. One big con, I wished it had more metal parts don't like the plastic. And ginger too! February 9, 2015 Am happy that I purchased this product. I have used it 4 out of the last 5 days. Easy to clean, by hand - and really pretty easy to store. We are traveling the US in an RV so space is precious and no dishwasher but there are no complaints here for what work it does in the kitchen. I have used it to slice the ginger I had asked 'the community" about and it works great! Now I can have fresh slicesof ginger everyday for cooking and my tea! I have not tried to grate the ginger yet though but am sure that it will work well too. I did try a sausage link - slightly frozen, slices were thin, still round but a few were messy - no big deal. Have done zucchini, squash, celery, onions and my first potatoes (for au gratin). All worked great!Would recommend to others. It works but heads-up July 23, 2013 Hats off to the Amazon community for the customer feedback provided re: the Presto Professional SaladShooter (PPSS) ... your comments persuaded me to purchase this product.You were right!I've had my PPSS about a month now and find myself looking for opportunities to use more fresh vegetables in my cooking!For example, I love stir-fry but have only prepared it occasionally because of the amount of prep work involved. Thanks to PPSS, prep work is quick and easy ... so much so that I've made stir-fry three times in the last month.Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase. However, I do have two concerns/questions that I want to share with the Amazon community.1) Power Cord ProblemsI have had problems with getting the unit to power up.After troubleshooting, I discovered that root cause was the positioning of the electrical cord where it enters the base unit. It had been twisted during packaging.When I straightened it out, the unit powered up. Unfortunately, the cord seems permanently twisted so I have to untwist it every time I use the device.Upon further research, I discovered that more recent versions of the Presto Professional SaladShooter come with a replaceable electrical cord.Clearly I got an older unit. Here is the model and unit number:Model: 0297003Unit: 47125K2Have you experienced this issue?2) Replacement conesFor stir-fry (and the scalloped potatoes my 97 year old father loves), my go-to cone is "thick slice" (regular slice is too thin).I want to order more thick-slice cones but don't see them as an option via Amazon.Have you found a trusted vendor where I can purchase these? | 13% Great Electric Grater August 12, 2017 I use this when I need a bunch of grated cheese or when making homemade hashbrowns. This shredder works very well. It is slick how well it works and especially the potatoes coming out non-mushed and without a lot of water (like when you use a hand grater with the potatoes). It is easy to use. My only thing is that I wish it was a little bigger. You must cut all of the cheese and potatoes into a certain size first. When it is time to wash, it comes apart and 4 pieces are needing to be washed. I realize that my problems with it is beyond anyone's control, but it is the only downside to the machine. It saves fingers and arms when you must grate a bunch, so I it is worth the buy! One of my favorite gadgets February 12, 2017 I have one of these myself and love it! I bought this for my sister for Christmas. What I like about it is the ease and speed of slicing things like olives for pizza. I used to take a paring knife and painstakingly slice each olive but with this you dump the olives in the chamber, plug it in, aim where you want them and press the on button. In seconds all those olives are sliced and arranged where you want them. I've had mine for over five years and use the dishwasher to clean the blades and food chamber.On a down note, I realized my slicer blade is cracking from the frequent use and the pressure from tougher items like carrots. I looked into ordering replacement blades and it is quite expensive. i hate grating cheese because of my bad shoulder October 26, 2016 loud product, yes its true...but it gets the job done and fast. i hate grating cheese because of my bad shoulder. its almost impossible some days but with this presto i grated a brick of mozzarella in less than 2 minutes. just refrigerate the cheese for 30 minutes prior so its not too soft. it is loud as described in some other reviews but its fast so the noise is gone just as quick as it started. love this grater! Awesome to grate cheese, so so as a vegetable cutter. May 4, 2016 This works great as a cheese grater. Although I have to slice the cheese blocks lengthwise to get them to fit properly, it saves me money over buying grated cheese. I just buy the cheddar blocks from Costco and slice it lengthwise in thirds. Makes short work of shredding and we have a large container of great shredded cheddar cheese to be used for microwavable quesadillas in less than 5 mins.Given that, I've tried to use the cutter for carrots and celery. Celery is particularity troublesome as the stringy stuff gets wrapped around the blade. The carrots are never cut evenly and end up curved. So, as a "salad shooter" it doesn't work so well, so I dropped it one star. Presto salad shooter March 18, 2016 The slicer is very easy to use and assemble. Clean up is very easy which means I will actually use this for slicing! The reason for only 4 stars is because of the size of the chute where the vegetables are inserted; It barely fits a halved (sliced the long way) cucumber. Plus the slices are very thin and there is no way to adjust that. However, for the price this is a great product and I highly recommend it. It really reduces the amount of time it takes to slice veggies. Easy to clean and re-assemble December 23, 2015 I use this quite often. It sure makes life easier in my kitchen. I no longer buy shredded cheese. It's much cheaper to buy the bulk and shred yourself with this. Making scalloped potatoes is a breeze! Easy to clean and re-assemble. Only complaint I have about this is that food usually gets stuck in the blade and I wish the "mouth" to feed the veggies or cheese into was bigger. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Three Star Reviews: | 5% The second one works good but one of the tools is just stamped out ... September 23, 2017 The first one was dead on arrival and replaced without problem. ok can happen. The second one works good but one of the tools is just stamped out and not sharpened. Was nearly impossible to grind down potatoes. The other tools are good though. And its really loud. So ok but just not great. Okay for large volume not for everyday use December 28, 2016 I bought it to grate vegetables since I have a very productive home garden (bottle gourds, carrots)It is good for grating large volumes. Reduced a bulk of my load.But no I would not recommend purchasing this for routine use:1. Does not shoot as nicely as in pic. Unless you hold it at an angle. But for me personally I can't press hard and hold it slanting.2. Fitting of blade funnel needs to be done well (base and ring lock) which is a bit pain but sometimes mine keep falling off. It happened after use for sometime so Maybe it's my fixing problem.3. Material gets lodged between the funnel (chute funnel like opening) and blade funnel and then one needs to apply lot more force to push it through.4. Cleaning is a pain5. One of the blades broke while slicing carrorts. Great product- while it works November 30, 2015 I bought this at the end of January this year and loved it. Primarily used it for grating cauliflower for cauliflower rice. However, it died last week while shredding cheese. The motor stopped working and the damn thing went in the trash. It was a very useful small appliance for me, so I'm debating whether I will buy another one. Hopefully this was just a fluke, since other reviewers seem to have gotten good use out of theirs. I have always loved these, but this is the first time I ... May 15, 2015 I have always loved these, but this is the first time I have paid full price for one. I usually pick them up at my local thrift shop for pennies on the dollar. They wind up lasting me a couple years and I use them often. This time, I couldn't find one so I decided that if the older, used varieties have had a couple years life in them, the new and updated version should be great! I can't say that I am convinced that will be the case. Out of the box, it has a burning smell. I thought it would go away after a few uses but it isn't. It feels as though the motor is struggling and I have to baby it. My thrift store finds were stronger than this one. Basically, I am using this for carrots and other easy to shred, light jobs. Yeah, mostly carrots and radishes. Small cheese jobs perhaps. Hit and Miss February 23, 2015 Like others I use to own one of these years ago but smaller version. This is the Professional and the size is quite a bit bigger. I like all the attachments with this model, and I do think if you don't put the parts in the dishwasher, should last you for years. When you are grating a hard cheese, I notice the turning on this model doesn't seem as fast as my old one, but it works well. I do notice that after dropping in some squares of say cheddar cheese, it grates it just fine, but when you pull it a part to clean it, I notice it left some flat pieces of the cheese...basically a waste unless you pull those pieces out and reinsert it in the top. Same for some vegetables.I think if I was to recommend I would get the smaller size, go to Presto's website and order the attachments I want from there, they are only $4.99 each. Complaints...slow turning, very loud (surprised how loud it was, my old one was much quieter), too bulky, and leaves too much food in the barrel. I did not get what I paid for. November 21, 2014 After returning the first one (see below), I now have a replacement. Works fine so far. However I used it to cut up carrots tonight and parts of it are now very orange and the color is not washing off. I consider that a sign of cheap material.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Wow, fast delivery of a huge disappointment. I ordered the Professional model due to the great reviews and the FOUR slicing/shredding attachments. The box it came in says it is the Professional model and says four and the picture shows four. There are two. There is zero quality control with most manufacturers. Especially if the product says "Made in China".I wanted this to help with Thanksgiving dinner prep. | 5% Things get stuck pretty often, but it gets the job done May 23, 2017 Things get stuck pretty often, but it gets the job done. Also, I'm only assuming I know how to use it. its ok when it works November 29, 2016 Ordered 3 of them, one of them didn't work, blades are not sharp enough, food always gets stuck inside the salad shooter. I like it with one exception February 27, 2015 I like the fact that i don't have to manually grate carrots anymore. However, I would have loved it if i could use it without holding it in my hands all the time. if they had an option of placing it down and using it with a bowl/plate underneath it, it would have been awesome! (Please let me know if there is an option, would love to know it and will update my review) Works well but not as well-made as my old one May 21, 2014 I bought this because it's a very useful kitchen tool, and I couldn't find another Black & Decker one,like the one I had bought years ago & which is still working well.I needed a second one for a vacation home, and this was the best I could find. It works well, so far.But it's not nearly as heavy-duty as the old B&D, and it's harder to put back together after cleaning.I don't expect that it will have the lifespan of the better-made B&D Salad Shooter.If anyone knows where I can find a Black & Decker one, please post and let me know! So-so grater. April 1, 2014 What a noisy little thing, it does grate cheese nicely, but seems like a lot of noise and not a lot of power. I'm not happy with how thickly it grated the carrot I was hoping to make carrot salad with; and the slicer also sliced cheese too thickly for my wishes. But it does work, I just think it's not all it's cracked up to be. One good thing, it does save on the knuckles... so hey, for that reason alone, I'm happy enough with it. Shreds nicely but the slicing is way too thin February 8, 2013 I found that the shredder attachment does a fine job of shredding, although it shoots straight out the side so it needs to be angled down into the bowl where you want the shredded food to end up. The slicing attachment is useless, however. The slices are so thin it is more like shredding than slicing. The photo on the front of the box shows fairly thick slices but I do not get that to happen at all - they are paper thin so not very useful for that function. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

Two Star Reviews: | 5% Detachable part does not stay locked in motor unit. July 22, 2017 Like the previous one I owned the removable part does not stay locked in the motor unit preventing the triggering of the security switch. Same problem I've seen forever. I thought they would have fixed it by now... not durable enouph August 31, 2016 It would be an awesome product if it worked. I purchased on May 19th 2016. Had to replace small slicing cone since (i use it the most). Now while slicing radish or cumber the whole thing falls apart while slicing. Have to hold it in locked position. For $50 they are charging for it, I woudl expect more durability. Also this product was placed ins service in May 19 2016 today is 8/31/2016 and I am writing this review because I am looking for this product replacement. I only use it to make a salad for lunch for work 4 times a week. This thing is not going to work with grating hard cheese. I am having hard time keeping it together to grate carrots and radish. Underpowered and slow and noisy. August 30, 2016 I was very excited to get a salad shooter to make the chore of preparing the salads easy and be able to make smaller qty butthis is not the one for me.First of all is underpowered and slow , unit is not able to shred the apple with the peel on. Second the thumper is awkward to use and and push , too many parts and this units requires that you press very hard to shred. I am a strong man and I found it hard to use , wife gave up on it on the first try.Last but not least unit is super noisy and hard to clean , lots of pieces and the flimsy retainer ring didn't inspire confidence that this unit will last long. Loud and awkward. July 27, 2016 It's noisy, awkward, and the plastic stains easily. A food processor or a mandoline would be a better option. We tried it and sent it right back. It shredded carrots, but we tried to slice cucumbers and it had a hard time with the very thin skin of a European cuke. Only works with some veggies like Cauliflower, Potato etc January 10, 2016 Only works with some veggies like Cauliflower, Potato etc...it did not work when I tried shredding onions or green pepper into thin long slices because if the onion or green pepper falls parallel to the surface of the blade (long slicer) it did not work and made a very loud screeching sound enough to wake everybody in the building. I like it but don't love it. Just gotta work with it December 30, 2015 I like it but not that much. if got a lot of qualities yes but you really can't cut that easily. I thought it would take less mechanical effort but i have to push on the carrots, cucumbers or onions. Mostly its for decorations or something but for day to day cooking, its not worth it. the slices are too thin, the whole inside gets dirty and stuffed. An its harder to clean (the metal parts are quite sharp.) I can't cut veggies like onions, potatoes or pepper (capsicum) or cabbages. It showed it in that box but i can't do it. its no possible ways. | 3% Two Stars July 10, 2017 Doesn't work well. I tried shredding peppers and they just got stuck. Not worth the money. Two Stars March 18, 2017 It proved to be very difficult to manage. The vegies came out lopsided. I donated it to Salvation Army. This is ok but I would purchase the bigger one ... January 19, 2017 This is ok but I would purchase the bigger one, this one requires a lot of strength to put the veggies through Not powerful enough April 27, 2015 I bought this mainly to grate cheese. The very first thing I tried to use this appliance on was a 1 pound block of Colby jack that was cut into 1 inch square strips. It did not perform well at all. It did shred the cheese, but the cheese clogs up inside the grater cone. I had to dig it out with a spoon 3 times in order to grate the rest of the cheese. It is not a very powerful unit either. It bogged down very easily. I'm not sure how it will perform on veggies, but I am not optimistic. It doesn't do a good job of shedding vegies or lettuce at all April 26, 2015 It doesn't do a good job of shedding vegies or lettuce at all. If you chill the American or cheddar cheeses, it will grate them ok. Cheese will stick to grater and make a mess. I would not recommend purchasing this salad shooter. It's a waste of money and time. I returned mine. thought it would be time saving but its not .... September 29, 2013 I bought this salad shooter expecting to save a lot of time and space but it actually wastes more time if you are washing it by hand and Ill explain why this unit does not slice onions, bell peppers it can only do that with hard veggies like carrots and such you cant do tomatoes all these soft veggies come out watery and mashed up, another thing you cant do with this salad shooter is shred greens such as basil dill etc, so if you need to slice some carrots or something of that nature than that's fine but if you gonna wash it by hand you will waste more time washing it then it would take if you would just slice it by hand . I would not recommend this product get a food processor instead same money more functional. | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |

One Star Reviews: | 5% Incomplete package, missing a major component. April 14, 2017 The product is missing a major part. Without this part the product cannot be use. I am missing the round seal/lock that locks the cutting cylinders in the shooter. This is not my first salad shooter, although it is larger. I used it to make salads. It somehow took ... November 17, 2016 I used it to make salads. It somehow took longer than chopping the veggies myself. And not to mention the veggies the Presto chopped looked less presentable/less appetizing. Not worth the money or time in my opinion. September 27, 2015 It is so difficult to get lined up properly in order to activate the on switch that it is just faster to cut the carrots by hand. Wasted the money. Don't have enough time to fiddle with it. Works for one chopping load, then when I cleaned it out, the alignment for the switch was off and I never did get it back in place to work again. Would be a great product if it had a better alignment system to activate the switch. Totally Disappointed December 22, 2013 I was doing a project that needed a lot of grated vegetables. I was looking for an alternative to a food processor but before I chose this I read all of the reviews. Most of the reviews here are positive and addressed all of the issues that I thought were important, so based on this I chose to give this a try. I was totally disappointed with its performance. It was easy to assemble, but the minute I inserted my vegetables it started to go downhill. I was chopping cabbage so I cut it into little pieces and inserted a little at a time. Nothing came out. I continued to insert more and more, but the more I inserted the more it became clogged. I scraped out the chopped cabbage to find chunks that were stuck to the blade. I disassembled it to find the food stuck to the blade on both sides, it was a mess to cleanup with no headway in my project. I took 30 minutes to grate one half of a cabbage and 1 red pepper. I didn't attempt anything else. I had enough at this point and chose to clean it to ship back. When cleaning I noticed the little bit of red pepper that I had tried had gotten juiced instead of chopped or grated and the machine was stained everywhere. Not sure why others liked this so much, but if you have a project your doing and are considering this I would look into a food processor instead. Shipped back with uttter disgust and disappointment. Very disappointed December 11, 2011 I bought it in November for Thanksgiving, and it was amazing. I was so impressed that it allowed me to make some salad in 3 minutes so I recommended it to many of my friends. However, last night I wanted to make some cucumber salad and that was only the second time I used this salad shooter, but the power switch didn't work, maybe it got stuck or something. I liked it so much I thought I shouldn't give up so easily, well, this morning I tried it again, and went through the instructions book and still couldn't figure out why it doesn't work anymore.
