    Made Oct 29, 2020, sent to the company Nov 30, 2020, published by CPSC Dec 14, 2020

    The product, in the report: This is used to chop food into smaller pieces and has a compartment underneath where it goes once the food is chopped.

    I purchased the Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro model number M-700. I just got an email that there was a recall on this for the tab breaking where it locks the blade into place. I had this happen not too soon after I purchased this product. The blades are very sharp so I haven’t used it very much after that because I’m worried about them coming loose and getting cut.

    Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro Vegetable Chopper

    We purchased this product and used it successfully without incident. However, at some point the (fine) metal grid started to come loose and a piece broke off and ended up in our vegetables. If someone had swallowed food prepared with it, it would have cut the inside of their throat. Please recall!

    The product, in the report: Vegetable Chopper Mueller Austria Onion Chopper Pro ASIN: B01HC7BNJA

    I was trying to engage the safety lock. Instead of sliding into place, it came off, sending my hand across the blades of the unit, slicing my right index finger. It bled heavily, but I was able to stop it with pressure and ice and did not need to seek medical care. Looking at negative reviews of the unit, I see several other customers experienced similar injuries, including one that required stitches, so I believe this is a known design issue that needs to be corrected.

    This is now the 2nd time the lock button has broke causing my finger to slip and slice open. Major design flaw where the lock button is easily broken causing your finger to slip onto the sharp blades. I’ve read multiple other complaints on amazon where people ended up needing stitches. I may as well.

    The product, in the report: grey/green rectangular box with a handle used to push the onion into the square grate blades for chopping

    I was using my new onion chopper while cooking dinner. I was locking the blade in place when the lock popped off, and my finger went into the blades, causing me to receive a large cut. I received four stitches from the incident.

    The product, in the report: Mueller onion chopper pro vegetable chopper

    I was using the mueller onion chopper pro for probably the 4th or 5th time. The design is that you put the blades into place and then use a locking mechanism to lock them before using it to chop food. I was locking the blades into place when the locking mechanism broke, causing my hand to go forward into the blades slicing my finger in the process, which warranted an urgent care visit and 3 stitches.
