    Onion choppers provide users with a hassle-free way to cut up their onions, and can often double as vegetable choppers depending on the product. When shopping for onion choppers, be sure to seek models that come with insertable metal sheets that allow you to change the size of your chopping blade – this provides multiple chopping sizes for the onions while also giving you the best bang for your buck. Most onion choppers are sold in a plastic construction and these usually hold up fine. However, stainless steel choppers are a more durable option. If you want to prevent your vegetable chopper from sliding around your counter during use, look for a rubber grip feature on the bottom of the chopper.
