The Salad Chef is a versatile salad making system (looks like a salad bowl with different lids and inserts) that functions as a food chopper (dices, slices, chops, juliennes, shreds and grates), lettuce spinner, strainer, storage container and serving bowl.
I bought two salad chefs from livingsocial.com. One for myself and the other for a gift. I had no problems with the price or any hidden fees. When they arrived, I opened my box and have loved using the product. I found it to be well made, works great and love the fact that it stacks together easily. The blades are extremly sharp and have nicked my fingers twice on them. The second Salad Chef was missing the smaller chopping blades. The note said to go to the online store at www.saladchefkit.com. The link is no good, but doing a google search, I have found this site, along with many others regarding this product. I have the phone number to call about the missing part:1-800-518-2292 amd hope I can get the new blade.

Date Reviewed:11/12/2012Reviewed By:Judy Flora
I posted this on another site and saw this site and decided to post it here because everyone should know this.
I purchased the salad chef over a year ago and really like it. about 3 weeks ago I made vegetable soup and potatoes soup for family that was coming for dinner. I had chopped everything for the vegetable soup and most of the potatoes and onions for the potatoe soup when I noticed one fo the blades from the small grate missing. This terrified me because I didn’t know which soup the blade was in or had it been broken previously. I decided to look in the first pan of soup that I made. I took all of the vegetables out and strained the liquid. There was a little amount left in the pan and I search the pan moving around what was left in the pan and I heard a scrape. I found it!
I will not use a salad chef again. What would have happened it I had not noticed that blade missing? I panic just thinking about it. It could have cut someones mouth or went on down the throat and killed someone.
I could not find a number to notify the company so I am posting this message on this site as a warning. This could happen to anyone if it hasn’t already.

Date Reviewed:7/8/2012Reviewed By:Rollscanardly
The product in USA with P&P is less than $50. I phoned on several occasions and got into a heated argument as I wanted to purchase it but not at the ridiculous price they were offering it. Two payments of $49.95 plus $19.95 P&P. And I could have bought it at Amazon.com for under $40 with P&P if there was no exclusivety added. If it's not an Australian or New Zealand product, with globalization we should have the choice and not allow a company have exclusive. But I suppose with their ads constantly bombarding nine television stations, they need the money desperately for us to buy. I will do my veges the way I have done for forty years, knife and chopping board.

Salad Chef Experience

Date Reviewed:6/20/2012Reviewed By:rbcash
I just bought the Salad Chef on clearance sale at a local Drugstore for just $9.00 plus tax. When I got it home and inspected it, I found the instructions which stated that if there were items listed in the recipe book which might not be included with your purchase, you could go to url:www.saladchefkit.com and order them. So I did, and the page doesn't exist anymore. But I found the manufacturer's website, and for the lack of anything else there at the site, I called the customer service desk. You won't believe it, but the phone operator, who treated me very politely, told me that she would send me the items that I needed (2 spinning baskets & Lid, and 3 additional cutting blades,) and all it would cost me was $4.50 shipping. So I went ahead and ordered it. I hope that I don't get a rude surprise from my credit union, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I ordered one salad chef through the phone and it was very confusing. I only ordered one and they sent me two. There was no paperwork in the box. I sent it back UPS and was charged ten dollars and change. They charged my credit card $132.50. I have called three times because the only refunded me $44.85. They also would never let me speak to a supervisor. So now that means I paid more for the shipping and handling than I did for the product. They say they cannot reimburse for shipping and handling which I thought was only $9.95. I have made a complaint with the BBB. I hope they go out of business because they truly are just ripping people off. I have never done business before with such a company.

Do Not Purchase Directly From This Company &/or Infomercial. Their method of ordering borders on criminal. I went online on a Sunday evening, went through ordering process, chose NOT to add the various extras they try to tack on, but still managed to get ripped off. YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE TOTAL PRICE UNTIL YOUR CREDIT CARD IS CHARGED. I realized this was happening and had a bad feeling, but stupidly went ahead. Was horrified when the grand total came to almost $100. They charged me for items that were supposed to be free, and the shipping charges were ASTRONOMICAL. I immediately tried to backtrack and cancel my order, but telephoned right away when I saw it couldn't be cancelled online. The instructions I got on Sunday evening were to call during business hours. I called at 9am next morning and was told the order had already shipped. It hadn't, of course, but I was told there was nothing I could do except refuse delivery. Luckily was home when our mail carrier tried to deliver. She took it right back -- it never even crossed the threshold to my house. My "refund" from Salad Chef was for the $49 ONLY. They wouldn't refund the shipping, even though there was no way to cancel this order. What a way to do business!!! I depended on my credit card (Citibank) to refund my money. Luckily they gave me back the full refund, and I assume they are going after Salad Chef for reimbursement. ONLY BUY THIS IN STORE IN PERSON!!

As already a lot of people before me mentioned, the product thats supposed to cost 40 and odd ends up as a close to 100 buck hole in your account. The website or the ph line do not ask you for a confirm transaction before it gets submitted. When you call to cancel, the reps tell you to call back in 2 days as does their customer service website. I called early next morning, but was told that it has already been put on the truck for delivery and there is no way to stop it.

Got mine at B.J.'s wholesalers...The box clearly states what you are getting and I paid $35 for the salad bowl, cutter lid, another lid to cover the bowl, 2 dicer/cutters and the grater. I want the slicer also so will try Bed, Bath, etc.I did knick my finger but the pieces are marked which side is up, sharp, etc. I like this a lot, use a variety of veggies as I am on a weight loss program. I even used it to dice up some left over meat and it did the job. I am sorry people got ripped off so bad. It is a time saving device. I want the slicer blade but wonder about going online since the reviews for that process are fair warning.

My mom ordered ONE from the infomercial. She received SIX. There was NO bill included in the 2 boxes that were delivered. No company name. Only a return address. She got her credit card bill - nearly $400 in charges from this company. She could not find any contact information for the company. I finally found how to get ahold of Salad Chef. Spoke with Jamie and she tried to tell me that my mom ordered 5 of these along with BOGO bowls and BOGO blades. I disputed this greatly. Then Jamie tells me that there were 3 boxes shipped and couldn't find the tracking info on the 3rd box. (hmm - now we're missing a box). Jamie offered to refund HALF of the postage and handling fees and allow my mom to ship the extras back at no cost. Really??? Your company sent 6 to her, charged her hundreds of $$, and you will be gracious enough to refund HALF??? Told her that I wanted all business information as I was calling the BBB, FTC, and my mom's lawyer. She immediately put me through to her supervisor, who was extremely rude (Sharisse). She tried to tell me that it had been more than 30 days, but I rebutted that there was NO billing or contact info included. She said that information comes seperately ! (Oh, how convenient to suck up the 30 day window). They are only going to refund HALF the postage and handling. I requested all business contact information from her as I advised her that I would be calling BBB, FTC, lawyer and my mom's credit card company. She was unphased.

I went online to purchase the Salad Chef. I had to go through a maze of offers and kept clicking NO on every one.

I attempted to call customer service and after a series of prompts, of course, they were not available. I tried checking the status of the order, I kept getting the message "No such order"! ARRGHHH!!! Finally, I called my credit card company and had my number changed to stop the transaction from going through! A bit of a headache but a necessary step to combat misleading and cheating companies that think they can actually get away with this kind of fraud.

I ordered the Salad Chef with a couple extras - I expected to pay the 2 payments that were advertised. I didn't expect the "extra fees" would triple the charges to my account plus the reoccurring charges . After researching my options and getting absolutely no help from the company directly I called my lawyer and explained the situation. After faxing the documents that I received with my order my lawyer told me that she would get back with me. I got an email explaining that I should be getting a refund. Two days later I had a deposit directly to my checking account for the monthly fee they charged plus the fees charged for handling and I haven't seen another monthly fee show up. I will never order again from an infomercial.

I bought two salad chefs from livingsocial.com. One for myself and the other for a gift. I had no problems with the price or any hidden fees. When they arrived, I opened my box and have loved using the product. I found it to be well made, works great and love the fact that it stacks together easily. The blades are extremly sharp and have nicked my fingers twice on them. The second Salad Chef was missing the smaller chopping blades. The note said to go to the online store at www.saladchefkit.com. The link is no good, but doing a google search, I have found this site, along with many others regarding this product. I have the phone number to call about the missing part:1-800-518-2292 amd hope I can get the new blade.

I posted this on another site and saw this site and decided to post it here because everyone should know this.
I purchased the salad chef over a year ago and really like it. about 3 weeks ago I made vegetable soup and potatoes soup for family that was coming for dinner. I had chopped everything for the vegetable soup and most of the potatoes and onions for the potatoe soup when I noticed one fo the blades from the small grate missing. This terrified me because I didn’t know which soup the blade was in or had it been broken previously. I decided to look in the first pan of soup that I made. I took all of the vegetables out and strained the liquid. There was a little amount left in the pan and I search the pan moving around what was left in the pan and I heard a scrape. I found it!
I will not use a salad chef again. What would have happened it I had not noticed that blade missing? I panic just thinking about it. It could have cut someones mouth or went on down the throat and killed someone.
I could not find a number to notify the company so I am posting this message on this site as a warning. This could happen to anyone if it hasn’t already.

The product in USA with P&P is less than $50. I phoned on several occasions and got into a heated argument as I wanted to purchase it but not at the ridiculous price they were offering it. Two payments of $49.95 plus $19.95 P&P. And I could have bought it at Amazon.com for under $40 with P&P if there was no exclusivety added. If it's not an Australian or New Zealand product, with globalization we should have the choice and not allow a company have exclusive. But I suppose with their ads constantly bombarding nine television stations, they need the money desperately for us to buy. I will do my veges the way I have done for forty years, knife and chopping board.

I just bought the Salad Chef on clearance sale at a local Drugstore for just $9.00 plus tax. When I got it home and inspected it, I found the instructions which stated that if there were items listed in the recipe book which might not be included with your purchase, you could go to url:www.saladchefkit.com and order them. So I did, and the page doesn't exist anymore. But I found the manufacturer's website, and for the lack of anything else there at the site, I called the customer service desk. You won't believe it, but the phone operator, who treated me very politely, told me that she would send me the items that I needed (2 spinning baskets & Lid, and 3 additional cutting blades,) and all it would cost me was $4.50 shipping. So I went ahead and ordered it. I hope that I don't get a rude surprise from my credit union, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I ordered one salad chef through the phone and it was very confusing. I only ordered one and they sent me two. There was no paperwork in the box. I sent it back UPS and was charged ten dollars and change. They charged my credit card $132.50. I have called three times because the only refunded me $44.85. They also would never let me speak to a supervisor. So now that means I paid more for the shipping and handling than I did for the product. They say they cannot reimburse for shipping and handling which I thought was only $9.95. I have made a complaint with the BBB. I hope they go out of business because they truly are just ripping people off. I have never done business before with such a company.

Do Not Purchase Directly From This Company &/or Infomercial. Their method of ordering borders on criminal. I went online on a Sunday evening, went through ordering process, chose NOT to add the various extras they try to tack on, but still managed to get ripped off. YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE TOTAL PRICE UNTIL YOUR CREDIT CARD IS CHARGED. I realized this was happening and had a bad feeling, but stupidly went ahead. Was horrified when the grand total came to almost $100. They charged me for items that were supposed to be free, and the shipping charges were ASTRONOMICAL. I immediately tried to backtrack and cancel my order, but telephoned right away when I saw it couldn't be cancelled online. The instructions I got on Sunday evening were to call during business hours. I called at 9am next morning and was told the order had already shipped. It hadn't, of course, but I was told there was nothing I could do except refuse delivery. Luckily was home when our mail carrier tried to deliver. She took it right back -- it never even crossed the threshold to my house. My "refund" from Salad Chef was for the $49 ONLY. They wouldn't refund the shipping, even though there was no way to cancel this order. What a way to do business!!! I depended on my credit card (Citibank) to refund my money. Luckily they gave me back the full refund, and I assume they are going after Salad Chef for reimbursement. ONLY BUY THIS IN STORE IN PERSON!!

Product works great. No doubts about that. But buying this product online sucks big time. SHAME SHAME SHAME On SALAD CHEF company and customer service. As already a lot of people before me mentioned, the product thats supposed to cost 40 and odd ends up as a close to 100 buck hole in your account. The website or the ph line do not ask you for a confirm transaction before it gets submitted. When you call to cancel, the reps tell you to call back in 2 days as does their customer service website. I called early next morning, but was told that it has already been put on the truck for delivery and there is no way to stop it. Only way out would be to see what happens when I refuse the package and send it back!!! Never felt soooooo cheated and frustrated!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got mine at B.J.'s wholesalers...The box clearly states what you are getting and I paid $35 for the salad bowl, cutter lid, another lid to cover the bowl, 2 dicer/cutters and the grater. I want the slicer also so will try Bed, Bath, etc.I did knick my finger but the pieces are marked which side is up, sharp, etc. I like this a lot, use a variety of veggies as I am on a weight loss program.

My mom ordered ONE from the infomercial. She received SIX. There was NO bill included in the 2 boxes that were delivered. No company name. Only a return address. She got her credit card bill - nearly $400 in charges from this company. She could not find any contact information for the company. I finally found how to get ahold of Salad Chef. Spoke with Jamie and she tried to tell me that my mom ordered 5 of these along with BOGO bowls and BOGO blades. I disputed this greatly. Then Jamie tells me that there were 3 boxes shipped and couldn't find the tracking info on the 3rd box. (hmm - now we're missing a box). Jamie offered to refund HALF of the postage and handling fees and allow my mom to ship the extras back at no cost. Really??? Your company sent 6 to her, charged her hundreds of $$, and you will be gracious enough to refund HALF??? Told her that I wanted all business information as I was calling the BBB, FTC, and my mom's lawyer. She immediately put me through to her supervisor, who was extremely rude (Sharisse). She tried to tell me that it had been more than 30 days, but I rebutted that there was NO billing or contact info included. She said that information comes seperately ! (Oh, how convenient to suck up the 30 day window). They are only going to refund HALF the postage and handling. I requested all business contact information from her as I advised her that I would be calling BBB, FTC, lawyer and my mom's credit card company. She was unphased. WHAT A CROCK OF CRAP!!!!!

I went online to purchase the Salad Chef. I had to go through a maze of offers and kept clicking NO on every one. Finally when I arrived at my receipt, I saw that I was charged for extra blades that I DID NOT order. I attempted to call customer service and after a series of prompts, of course, they were not available. I tried checking the status of the order, I kept getting the message "No such order"! ARRGHHH!!! Finally, I called my credit card company and had my number changed to stop the transaction from going through! A bit of a headache but a necessary step to combat misleading and cheating companies that think they can actually get away with this kind of fraud. My advise is this: DO NOT order the Salad Chef online or by phone. No matter the quality of the product, the company is a rip off! If you really need to have it, get it in a store. I should have done that myself!
