What customers say
Customer sentiment for the Norpro Bean Frencher is sharply divided, centering primarily on utility versus durability. Users highly value its efficiency for quickly processing tender green beans into a perfect French style cut, often recalling superior older models. However, significant frustration arises from perceived fragility. Many reports cite plastic components cracking or breaking quickly, suggesting poor material quality. Furthermore, the suction cup base frequently fails to secure the unit, requiring manual stabilization during use. The device also struggles with tougher or larger beans. While the concept is appreciated for saving time, the lack of lasting construction and unreliable base mechanism significantly detract from its overall value proposition.
