Is the blade low enough to puree small amounts e.g. half a sweet potato (1 oz food)?

Yes! That is what this device does best. Although it is also very good at larger jobs. My daughter purees a large pot of soup with it.

The blade is about half an inch from the bottom - you should be able to use it to puree with no problem.

It will chop it, but not puree it. If want want to puree, get yourself magic bullet. If you want to finely chop, this can do the job. Thanks for shopping with Karenville Mall!

Never tried that but my guess is yes as long as it's fine granules and not clumped together. Also you probably should scrub it down so the blades don't rust.

Yes, but within the smaller scale. It's not as powerful, but need not be for a smallish bowl. It also lacks the attachments of a full sized FP, such as grating and slicing disks. If I only require a chopping blade and the job fits in it, I always use this instead of the large FP.

I owned it for very short period of time. I guess it should be able to do puree. Our problem was it was very loud

No, this knife is difficult to operate easily. I would try a different brand that specifically states its use on thick rind foods. Best wishes. Angelica

Yes, if you either have very small nails or don't mind nipping several times. The blade length is 1/2".

It will not dice, it will do a an uneven chop to a puree. This machine is great for baby food, home made salad dressings. Because of well the oils blend slowly there is no separation between liquids.

I've done as little as a half cup, the only downside is you have to use a spoon or something to push stuff back down because it will get stuck to the sides out of reach of the blades.

I use it all the time to make dough for one pizza (following the Cooks Illustrated recipe). It is small, but enough for me. I find that not having a dough blade doesn't matter that much in this case.

Yes! but I wpuld only reccopmend if you are going to cut white potatoes or softer vegetables. WILL NOT WORK FOR SWEET POTATOES, YAMS OR TURNIPS

It has one blade (2-sided). It would be fine to puree for baby food. No attachments.

it only has one blade and no whisk attachment. I would not recommend using this tool to puree baby food. look for a mini chopper, such as the Krups Mini Food Processor, 13 Ounce Capacity.

NO..small amounts work just fine. One thing is how hard you push the 'squisher' from the top, which moves the food from the top down to the grater or slicer. The lighter the pressure the finer your food will slice or grate. The harder you press will create a thicker slice or heaver grate. Cool?!!

no, the finest blade is not that fine, I think it is 1/8th inch. It is more about creating long noodle shapes from the zucchini that taste great, and are very healthy, that will go with all kinds of sauces. It will not create as many shapes as you would get with pasta machine or dry pasta

I think you could - just remember to follow the instructions on how long the spurts of chopping should be. But I would use this for the chopping and then to puree I would use one of the hand blenders - that would make it really smooth.

Absolutely! Just be careful. The slicing blade is so sharp and effortless to use, you will be through a potato before you realize it. You'll have the potatoes sliced and frying in half the time than if you used a knife.
