    The product, in the report: Mainstays USB Rechargeable Mini Food Chopper

    In assembling electric food chopper I tried to attach blades to the top of lid where socket area looked like it fit and found they product was automatically on while the blades were still in my hand. The blades are supposed to be placed in bottom part of the product but had fallen out in unpacking. My friend, while helping me to bandage injury and trying to determine what happened, almost did the same thing I did. Too easy for this to happen.
