Philips Chopper 400W HR1397 – 1L Bowl & Double Blade

Description

Philips Viva Collection Chopper HR1397 • ⚡ 400W compact chopping power • 🥣 1L maximum chopper bowl • 📏 Approximately 0.6L usable capacity • 🔪 Double stainless-steel blade system • 👇 Simple press-down operation • 🥬 Serrated blade suitable for leafy ingredients • 🧼 Dishwasher-safe removable accessories • 🛡️ Two-year Philips warranty Product overview The Philips Viva Collection HR1397 is a compact food chopper for vegetables, onions, herbs, nuts and leafy ingredients. Its 400W motor and double-blade arrangement create several cutting levels inside the bowl, helping ingredients process more evenly than a single low blade when the correct quantity is used. The bowl has a 1L maximum volume and an approximate 0.6L usable processing capacity. The lower working limit leaves enough space for food to move around the blades without compacting against the lid. Double-blade chopping Two stainless-steel blades cut at different heights inside the bowl. This is useful for onions, peppers, vegetables and herbs that otherwise remain above a single blade. A serrated blade profile also supports tougher leafy ingredients such as molokhia. Press-down control The motor operates while the top is pressed. Short pulses produce a coarser texture, while repeated brief cycles create a finer chop. Avoid one long continuous run because onions, herbs and nuts can quickly become a wet paste. Ingredient preparation Cut large ingredients into similar pieces, remove bones, stones, shells and hard stems, and keep within the usable capacity. Tough nuts should be processed in small quantities. The appliance is not intended for dough, liquids or smoothies. Cleaning and blade safety Unplug before disassembly. Handle the blades by the central plastic support and keep fingers away from the cutting edges. The removable accessories are dishwasher safe, while the motor housing must be wiped only and never immersed.
