CPSC, Ultimate Chopper LLC Announce Recall to Inspect and Replace Food Processors

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The interlocking lid assembly on the appliance can malfunction, allowing the food processor to be operated when the lid is off. This can result in a laceration or fingertip amputation hazard, if consumers insert their hands into the food processor.

What to do

Consumers should immediately inspect their Ultimate Chopper food processor to determine if the interlocking lid is functioning properly. Consumers should remove the lid and blade assembly and test to see if the unit will operate without the lid on. If the unit turns on when the lid is removed, consumers should stop using it immediately and contact Ultimate Chopper LLC to receive a free replacement unit. Also, if blade assemblies are worn, damaged or broken for any reason, consumers should stop using the unit and contact the company to receive a free replacement blade assembly.
