Today, my mother used the Mueller Onion Copper Pro to chop some vegetables for a dish she was preparing. Part of the chopper broke and fell into the dish. My mother didn’t see the broken metal. She noticed after using the chopper that a metal piece was missing. I found the broken piece in the food that I ate. Thank goodness I didn’t get cut or swallow the broken metal. This chopper was bought from Amazon. I left a post on their website titled “buyer beware” to warn other shoppers about this defective product.

When I chopped onions the blades never stayed in locked positions. The blades always popped open out of the machine or flipped on the other side.
My husband cut his edges of his fingers when inserting the chopping blade as it is not labeled so it is misleading for consumers as to which side to use.

The product, in the report: Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro, green grates and gray chopper with a clear, acrylic holder for the chopped produce. My mother purchased it as a Christmas gift for us via Amazon. Model M-700
I was using the Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro to cube sweet potatoes in the largest grate size. I was attempting to lock the blade into place. The locking button came off of the piece and the force I was using to apply the lock caused the index finger of my right hand to become impaled upon the grate. It did not require stitches however, my index finger can no longer point straight which indicates a potential tendon damage.

The product, in the report: Essentially a fresh French fry maker. Cuts tough veggies like potatoes into equal sized square/rectangle pieces.
The small locking piece that keeps the blade in place broke while trying to lock the blade in place. My fingers shot forward because the lock piece required a lot of force it seemed. My ring finger was cut really deeply during this process, I thought I might need stitches. But I just kept pressure on it until it stopped bleeding.

Locking mechanism on both of my choppers purchased through Amazon have not been staying properly locked. One of the locks cracked and broke so I ended up throwing it away and purchasing another. The lock on my current chopper is cracked but still intact. No injuries have resulted at this time but it seems unsafe to use. Below is the product information for both choppers including purchase dates. I no longer have the packaging that either product came in.

The product, in the report: Mueller Chopper 4 Blade Pro Series - Strongest - NO MORE TEARS 40% Heavier Duty Multi Vegetable-Fruit-Cheese-Onion Chopper-Dicer-Kitchen Cutter
I purchased the chopper on Amazon and used it a few times. One time when I was using it to chop onions the locking mechanism appeared to be not fully engaged. When I pushed it in to lock the plate, the plastic from the locking mechanism broke off and my finger went into the grate. I ended up with 6 stitches in the tip of my finger.

Last week I went to use our onion chopper. It turns out the locking mechanism had broken. I found the part and tried putting it back together. I thought I had it so I put the crosscut metal piece in and was trying to lock it in place. In the process the side of my thumb went right into the little metal grate and I cut myself. It wasn’t terrible and it’s mostly healed but I got an email from Amazon about the recall and was surprised how timely it was! I figured I may as well report it.

The product, in the report: Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro. This product has 2 sets of blade grids that are interchangeable with a locking mechanism to hold the blades in place.
After I cleaned the blade, I went to put the blade back in the device and while pushing the lock closed , the lock came off of the device. My finger was forced into the blade cutting a cross section into my finger nail and ripping half of it off. I did not seek medical treatment, but it did take a month for my fingernail to grow back.

The product, in the report: Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro, model number M-700. Gray and green chopper. Has two stainless steel removable blades. Has a clear container. Onion chopper has a locking tab that can be pushed towards the blades. Ouch!!!
With the Mueller Onion Chopper Pro, I have cut my fingers twice on the blades. The cuts bled for a long while and one kept reopening. I would rather have a different chopper, all together. The blade is so sharp that if I just lightly touch the blade, I end up with a laceration. I had to label the top of the chopper with a note saying, “Do not touch the blades”.

I was using the Mueller Austria Onion Chopper to make my dinner. I had read the enclosed instructions and had locked the device. I had used this device previously with no problems. This time the device came unlocked and my thumb was sliced. There was so much blood that the towel I used on the wound for pressure did not work. My husband heard me screaming and put my hand in a bowl of ice to slow down the bleeding. I have photos that show the wound.

The product, in the report: Description: This recall involves models of the Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro, model number M-700. The gray and green choppers come with two stainless steel discs, 4-cup clear container and cleaning brush. Only onion choppers that have a locking tab that can be pushed towards the blades in order to properly lock into place are included in this recall. The Mueller Austria logo is printed on the side of the chopper. The model number is located on the product itself or on the chopper’s packaging.
I cut my finger tips 3 times by using this product. 1 tims, when i tried to lock (the blade lock), slikped. 2 times just using this producct generally speaking. At the same time, I learned that not only this product but other products for same purpose has problem easily cut our fingers & lots of product comes with gloves to avoid that. So i just thought I just have to be careful. But since i saw this recall, i recoznized it’s not onyl me. It really cut deep. So it was really hard to stop bleeding. freaked me out during quarantine. I only use when i really have to use due to that problem.

The product, in the report: Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro--it dices vegetables for cooking/eating purposes by pushing the food through a grid of blades.
Exactly what happened on the recall notice happened to me. I was pressing / trying to move the locking tab into place, and it snapped off. I used my left thumb to move it as I am right handed and I was holding the top arm in place with my right hand. The tab came loose and my left thumb snapped violently down onto the blade and sliced right into my thumb. It cut so deep that it cut into my thumb nail.

The product, in the report: The Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro, model number M-700. The gray and green choppers come with two stainless steel discs, 4-cup clear container and cleaning brush. Only onion choppers that have a locking tab that can be pushed towards the blades in order to properly lock into place are included in this recall. The Mueller Austria logo is printed on the side of the chopper. The model number is located on the product itself or on the chopper’s packaging.
While pushing hard on the ‘difficult to adjust’ locking tab to lock it, the locking tab snapped off and I drove my thumb into the sharp blades and took a significant chunk of flesh out of my thumb which bled significantly and took a while to heal because it wasn’t just a slice but a full chunk taken out of my thumb. It was immediately apparent that the design was faulty. This was nearly eight months ago and when I went on the product’s amazon page that night to see if anyone else had a similar issue, I wasn’t surprised to see that they had already updated the design so the locking tab moved sideways instead of towards the blades. I am surprised that it took so long to recall the product but happy that it is being done finally.

The product, in the report: Mueller Vegetable Chopper – Heavy Duty Vegetable Slicer - Onion Chopper with Container - Pro Food Chopper - Grey Slicer Dicer Cutter
On December 16, 2018 I was making breakfast for my husband and I. I removed a smaller chopping blade from the Mueller Vegetable chopper (SKU B01HC7BNJA) and attempted to replace it with a larger blade set to chop an apple. As I was inserting and locking the new blade into place the locking mechanism broke off, causing my right thumb to slide over the blade. The locking mechanism locks the blade in place when pressure is applied towards the blade, so when the mechanism broke off my hand slipped forward onto the blade. Because the cut was deep I went to my local urgent care where I received five stitches.

I received this chopper as a gift. I tried to put it together without directions. The lock tab broke and I sliced two fingers. I did not need stitches but it took a long time to heal because they were deep cuts. I almost threw it away but put it in a cupboard until I healed. The person who gave this chopper to me sent the info to me. I would like to replace the chopper with a safer model. Thank you [REDACTED]

The product, in the report: Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro, model number M-700, gray and green choppers/blades with clear container
I recently received a safety recall for a chopper that I purchased on Amazon. About two weeks ago, I was using the chopper and as I was attempting to lock the blade in place, I did not know that part of the locking mechanism had fallen off and my had slid across the blade and I ended up with a deep laceration to my thumb. Once I saw the recall and noted that the exact same injuries were occurring with others, I decided to report my incident as well. I probably should have gone in for stitches when the incident occurred but thankfully the wound is healing. I shudder to think about how the incident could have happened to one of my children. I hope the new locking mechanism completely takes care of the problem.

The product, in the report: Mueller Vegetable Chopper Model M-700 The gray and green choppers come with two stainless steel discs, 4-cup clear container and cleaning brush With a plastic locking tab.
After I cleaned the onion chopper, I went to put the blade part back into the chopper and lock it, and when I did so the locking mechanism flew off in my right pointer finger struck the blades. It caused about a half inch cut on my pointer finger, which I had to wrap for about one week. It took about two months for me to regain full feeling back in that finger tip. I should have received stitches at that time, but the out-of-pocket medical expense was too much to consider going to the hospital for.

After healing it I went to slice again and did the same thing. I kept trying to fix it. I have used it one time since then to slice some tomatoes and the latch lock kept breaking off. I still have the product but have deemed it as extremely unsafe to use anymore.

I do love this product however I severely cut my thumb almost cutting the end of it off by trying to lock the blade into the unit approximately two months ago this happened. I probably should have gone to the emergency room and gotten stitches however I made the decision to manage the injury myself the locking mechanism broke I have not been able to repair it therefore I can no longer lock the blades into the unit. I do still use this product although it scares me every time because I don’t think I’ve ever been cut that deeply almost losing the end of my thumb.

The product, in the report: A vegetable chopper
I recently purchased the Mueller Pro Series Multi Chopper/Slicer to help me around the kitchen because I like to have dinner party’s almost every weekend. However I made a laceration on my hand because I was setting the item up. The Large Dicer is very sharp. I picked it up not knowing which side was sharp and when I grabbed it my fingers were cut up. It hurted so badly I couldn’t work for a week. I am a residential carpenter and I work with my hands a lot. I had to give up a $2000+ Dollar job because of this issue. On a separate occasion my mom was using the Mueller Chopper and pierced her hand when grabbing the safety holder. It’s has no warning on it. I do NOT wish to use this anymore. I have kids around and I would hate if they were to get injured by this.

On Christmas Morning I was using the onion chopper to assist with my meal preparation. I went to lock the small chopping blade into place and my thumb slid across the blades. I immediately wrapped my thumb, applied pressure and went to the emergency room where I received treatment for the sever laceration. I continue to have numbness in the tip of my thumb where the injury occurred.

The product, in the report: Chopper dicer that you pull down to chop
I’ve sliced my finger several times using this product. From minor slices to ones that requires super glue to stop the bleeding. I was told to go to the er but because of covid I just used super glue to stop the bleeding. The small grey pieces that lock the pieces into place always fall out. The last time this happened was 2 weeks ago. I was chopping veggies for chili and while trying to chop onions my hand slipped and was sliced so bad that I had to throw away all of the veggies in and around the diced.
