| Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - Love it! I go through pounds and pounds and pounds of apples between cakes, crisps, apple butter, and so on, and my least favorite part has always been peeling the darn things. I received this peeler as a Christmas gift and it's already high up on my list of favorite gadgets!
Peeling apples is now fun. Yes, I said it. Fun. Our 8 year old and I had a blast mowing through 5lbs of apples the other day for a fresh batch of apple butter. She loves turning the crank and watching the apple peel come off in a long spiral. Less than 10 minutes after we started, the apples were cooking and the peeler was washed and put away while we snacked on the peels.
This also does a decent job with potatoes, but don't expect it to peel them clean. That works for us because we like *some* peel in our mashed potatoes; if you need spotlessly peeled potatoes, though, you'll need to finish them up by hand.
Consider this an apple peeler and you'll be happy with your purchase. I'd give it 6 stars if I could!
Children should be supervised when using this gadget. The slicer blade is quite sharp as are the prongs that hold the apple. + See Full Customer Review |  |
