Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Chef'n Rev'n Chef Herb ProcessorCustomer Review: Not sure I'd waste my money again... Summary: 3 Stars
This is a tough gadget to like very much, but at the same time there are a few times it comes in handy. First of all, I'd never use it for certain things like mincing garlic, or chopping certain herbs like rosemary, as this thing just isn't tough enough for that. The item claims that you flip the blade one way for peeling garlic then the other way for mincing. Are you kidding? I could have the garlic sauteing in oil before the garlic would be peeled in this thing. And rosemary is either too tough too small ???? as I spent about 2 minutes of tugging the cord with about 10% of all rosemary leaves with a single cut!!! Just doesn't work that well on that stuff. But on the other hand, it works like a champ on things like parsley and cilantro. It's almost worth it just for those two items. And then throw it in the dishwasher and you're all set. I haven't tried to do some things that others here have listed (eggs, salad dressing,...etc) but knowing what I know now, I don't think I'd buy this. It's too random as to what will work or not.
Description of Chef'n Rev'n Chef Herb ProcessorHerb and food processor. A handy gadget for cooks short on time, the Chef'n Rev'n Chef herb processor uses a spinning blade and a pull string to chop fresh herbs and other flavorful ingredients. Though neither as direct nor as powerful as a chef's knife, the processor is easy to use and fairly versatile. It works best on soft leaf herbs like basil, parsley, and cilantro, and can also be used to bruise rosemary or sage. The blade is sharp enough to chop garlic, shallots, and small amounts of onions, which minimizes lingering smells on your hands. Chef'n also includes a blunt paddle for peeling garlic, emulsifying dressings, and whipping eggs. Operated with simple hand power--no batteries or cords--the device is easy to tote from prep table to stove. It washes up in the top rack of the dishwasher, measures 4-1/2 by 4 by 2-3/4 inches, and comes with a simple set of starter recipes. A bonus switchblade-style vegetable peeler is also included. --Emily Bedard
