Serious question, is that $40 TikTok salad chopper worth the hype or a total scam?

I fell for one of those viral salad chopper bowl things last month. It was $42 with shipping and I was convinced it would save me 10 minutes of chopping every night. On the bright side, it worked great for soft stuff like tomatoes and cucumbers, no doubt. But when I tried to chop a carrot and a bell pepper together, the blades got stuck and I almost threw the whole thing in the trash. So here's the debate: does this stupid gadget actually save time for veggie prep, or is it just another overhyped kitchen toy that ends up in a drawer? Anyone else waste money on one of these and regret it or love it?

Carrots are too hard for those cheap plastic blades honestly.

@danielr99 Totally feel you on that. I've shredded a few of those plastic blades on carrots myself, it's frustrating. They just don't have the bite for anything denser than a cucumber, in my experience.

Wait is the lack of blade strength really that big of a deal though lol? It's a salad chopper not a carrot grinder.
