The Cuisinart CH‑4DC Elite Collection 4‑Cup Chopper/Grinder is a compact yet powerful food prep tool with a 250-watt motor. It’s equipped with an auto-reversing SmartPower® blade — sharp for chopping soft ingredients and blunt for grinding spices or tougher foods. The BladeLock™ system secures the blade when pouring and processing, while simple touchpad controls allow you to choose between “Chop” or “Grind.” It includes a 4-cup work bowl with a handle, a spatula, a recipe guide, and all removable parts are dishwasher-safe.
