Apple Pro-Peeler

A very good product. Works very well

Good product if apple has good size and fresh with hard skin....doesn't work on typical loose skin and non-over apples.

Good product

Good

Broke in 10days and the buyer doesnt take returns not worth it. Can't put 0 stars.

This apple peeler works so well and is very easy to use and clean. We did about 50 apples in a very short time. I highly recommend it. I borrowed my girlfriends starfrit apple peeler which prompted me to purchase my own.

This is an excellent peeler which peels an apple in less than 2 seconds. Was a bit doubtful about getting this as have previously used an apple peeler/corer/slicer and didn't really know if the corer bit would work well....it does! So all in all very satisfied and would recommend

Estaba un poco inseguro antes de comprar, pero tras usarlo un par de veces, he quedado enamorado de este juguetito. Debo de decir que en realidad lo compré para que mi hija de cinco años me ayudara a preparar manzanas para hacer jugos, pero acabé enamorándome yo del producto, pues pela una manzana en tres segundos. Además que es tan sencillo de usar, que literalmente un niño de cinco años la puede usar sin problemas. Claro, bajo supervisión de un adulto. A pesar de que viene con dos navajas de repuesto, quisiera saber si las navajitas se pueden adquirir por separado, o qué sucede con el artefacto cuando se queda sin filo. ¿A la basura?

We'll be buying more of these "Starfrit 93013 Pro-Apple Peeler with bonus core slicer" -- it works immediately and always, ideally for apples and I can partially peel small potatoes, which is fine for us, should we need the rare peeled potato (instead of my cast-iron, red color, vacuum base,horizontal-operation product). I'll buy this for my 20-something relatives, for sure. I struggled with my cast-iron type, you know the one, it gets tons of publicity, the peel/core/slice -- never could get it to not-destroy our expensive firm apples, and just as hopeless with potato (my talented husband threw the iron one in the trash he was so mad...he builds and operates and fixes many many things in this world! I got it out of the trash bin since I may be able to wind knitting yarn with it if my yarn ball winder ever breaks, ha ha!). This great little Starfrit 93013 is inexpensive, and the bit of time to use the included separate corer is trivial (compared to the 'we're having applesauce and mashed potato' and wasted time/money with your destroyed produce from the 'other type of peeler'). It even worked perfectly with some apples that were a bit past their very-firm stage. Big not huge/small/or not-perfectly-spherical, apple; ok with small un-knobby potato. The smallest 'new potato' is probably too small, but I will try them when they're in season. The Starfrit's blade properly "floats" therefore does not chew up the fruit. The blade automatically finishes out-of-the-way for when you remove the produce from the four prongs. The thoughtful design has the blade perfectly oriented so as to push against the fruit (not drag that blunt steel U-shaped thing along and ravage the fruit as my 'other type' does). It peels right up to the central axis of the apple, so any peel left there is cored away. You turn the handle away from yourself . And you do get that lonnng peel. I just ran into the kitchen and tried it with my left hand turning the handle...just turn toward yourself, and it works perfectly. It has four suction-y feet and you will need to place your other hand at the middle to further stabilize it a bit, but it truly isn't a big effort. My DH adds that if you don't have the use of two hands, just duct tape it to the countertop, since the forces are not huge or anything. If they used iron or steel for the housing, it would cost a lot more, so I'm totally okay with the plastic. I love this Starfrit device. I bake lots of apple pies, you'll be a better happier cook and eat better, surely, with this little machine. The kids can see the gearing as it works; but is not a toy, for sure. It is a good ol' sharp blade, so I would think children about 10 and younger, or klutzy/distracted youngsters should not use it, or just very closely supervise your young cook. And I would *much* rather buy a few blades --it includes an extra with a cover on it-- than endure the total failure of the more pricey iron 'traditional' type. It's easy to rinse off and I found no way for juice or water to enter the housing...I rinsed vigorously and used the sprayer, no water got inside; it is well made. If you know a cook or want a fresh apple pie, this Starfrit 93013 as a little gift may seem funny at first, but get one anyway... ...unless you really like peeling with a little veggie peeler, then a corer, then a chef's knife to get the slices you need, over and over and over! This is a long review bec it's such a great non-pro-kitchen peeler and I felt so stupid for buying that other type. BTW, for making great pie crust without lard...do a search for vodka pie crust. Yep. (Unless ya hafta totally eschew alcohol, of course). Because now that you can peel apples easily, you can pay more attention to the crust and, yummmm, puddddinnnng fillings with blueberries or cranberries.
