Affected Products

The Ultimate Chopper is a compact, single-speed food processor that can also function as a blender when an optional attachment is used with the base. The product is comprised of a white base unit with a 600-watt motor (750 watts peak power), a plastic blade assembly that contains two stainless steel blades, a chopping bowl, and a clear interlocking lid. The name "Ultimate Chopper" is stamped on the product's base. The optional blender attachment is sold separately.

Why Was This Recalled?

The interlocking lid assembly on the appliance can malfunction, allowing the food processor to be operated when the lid is off. This can result in a laceration or fingertip amputation hazard, if consumers insert their hands into the food processor.
