World Kitchen/Ekco 1045559 Peeler Review

(More customer reviews)
I've had this wonderful little peeler for at least a couple decades. I can't recall where I got it and it has no brand imprinted on it. It still works fine and is still very sharp. The problem is that it has become somewhat rusty and badly stained and looks bad with the other tools in the kitchen drawer. So, my wife and I were visiting our local Ace Hardware and noticed this Ekco Peeler. It was bright, shiny and new and we were delighted to find another to replace our aging peeler.
Our old peeler is almost identical to the new Ekco model, except in a few details. I'd say they probably came out of the same factory except that the old one has "Made in the USA" stamped on it. I threw away the new package, but I suspect it would have "Made in China" on it.
Well, fortunately, we didn't toss the old peeler. It's far superior to the new one. It's far sharper and will peel potatoes, carrots and what not all far faster and with less effort. Go figure. This new one is a little piece of junk compared with our old rusted and badly stained peeler. If we ever throw one away, it will be this Ekco model.

This peeler works great. Blade is very sharp and makes peeling fast and easy. Very safe to use. I thought the handle would be too cumbersome as I have small hands, but it's fine. I like the fact that it stands on a shelf so it won't get out of my site and get thrown in the compost like my previous one.
You can use either hand: the blade can be popped out and reversed for lefties (thank you T. Scimone for pointing this out to me).

Before you give up on peeling all together, try the Slice Veggie Peeler. The ultra-sharp, high-tech ceramic blade (yes, ceramic) will make a good impression on any self-respecting potato (or cabbage, carrot, or cucumber). Lightweight ceramics and ergonomic non-slip design mean plenty of energy left to peel tomatoes for gazpacho. Veggie Peeler\'s ceramic blade means it\'s light, clean, and fun to use. And if you loathe the taste of metal in your food, your prayers are answered. Veggie Peeler\'s ceramic blade leaves no after-taste or smell, won\'t brown food, and stays razor sharp long after other peelers with metal blades are history. Designed by renowned designer Karim Rashid. Karim\'s work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the British Design Museum in London. A portion of the purchase price of the Slice Veggie Peeler is donated to fund Autism research.

World Cuisine 2-3/4-Inch Stainless Steel Potato Peeler Review

Cooking is my hobby and I spend a lot of time on careful prep work. I have weak closing strength and pain in my hands which makes it hard to impossible to use the conventional rotating or moving blade type of peeler. This type is called a French peeler or fixed blade peeler and it works great by transferring the motion from thumb and fingers to the wrist and lower arm. Yes, it does take a little getting used to but once you master your own technique it's actually much faster and certainly less painful to use.

A vertical peeler (where the blade is parallel to your fingers) feels so much more natural to use than a horizontal one. However, I've been used to a stationary blade, and getting used to the swivel is taking a little time, particularly on smaller food. However, I like the shape, weight and feel of this one, and think it will be worth the extra price once I get used to it.

So much easier than boiling skin off tomatoes. It does not damage the tomato at all. Not quite as easy as using a potato peeler, but I have a lot more practice with one of those. In fact, I get better at using this peeler each time. It works best when the tomato is cold.

Tupperware Twistable Peeler. Orange Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am sure that this peeler would be fantastic (like other peelers produced by Tupperware), except that the blade fell out on mine on first use. Tupperware needs to perfect the design a lot more in order to ensure that the blade is wedged in enough to the 'holder' so that when you press on a potato or apple the blade doesn't just pop out. Such a shame, as having to pay for postage to get a free replacement on such a cheap item hardly makes it worthwhile in the long run.

Zyliss Soft Skin Peeler Review

I certainly agree with the reviewer who said this peeler performed awesomely on peaches. (It also works nicely on nectarines and other soft fruit.) It also comes with a hard plastic blade guard that protects the blade when it's tossed in a drawer. Like others, I purchased this item for the wrong reason (in order to qualify for the extra $25 off an order of $125 or more), but I am certainly glad I did.
5/11/06: This peeler also does a fine job on ripe tomatoes (for those who do not wish to peel using the traditional scalding method).
11/04/06: I have purchased several for 'stocking stuffers'. You might consider doing the same.

This is the best peeler ever. It's small enough it fits in your hand easily, and that makes it very easy to peel things very quickly. If you hand wash and dry it, you'll have no problems with rust.
I use mine to peel 100+ apples a week, and have been for at least six months, and it still easily peels more delicate things, such as very ripe peaches, but then it will also peel much more difficult things like cheese pumpkins. No joke. this thing can take your toughest squashes, or your ripest peaches with no problem.

But usable. It's different in the fact that it's very small and as an American I am pretty much accustomed to the peelers that are turned to the side. This one zips right down the vegetable so you better be really careful with the edges of your palms. It's smaller than it appears and it's plastic, kind've hard to get a good grip on it but like I said, it's different. Doesn't mean it's bad. Hopefully it will last a while. :)

Starfrit 93013 Pro-Apple Peeler with bonus core slicer Review

Starfrit 93013 Pro-Apple Peeler with bonus core slicer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a really good apple peeler. The blade is wider than in standard peelers (the red ones where you put the apple sideways) so it peels the apple faster. It peels around the top and bottom of the apple, missing only the parts right above and below the core, so after coring the apple there's no skin left--no touch-ups required. It comes with a corer, a corer/slicer, two extra blades, and little plastic covers for the blade and prongs. It's easy to clean.
The cons: It looks like it belongs in a toy chest, so if you pride yourself on your beautiful Martha Stewart kitchen you're going to want to put this away after using it rather than leave it displayed. It doesn't work well at all on potatoes--even when you cut them in half first, it still misses lots of spots and carves them into apple shapes. There are four plastic suction cups on its base to keep it from moving while you're using it, and you have to wet them to make them work. It only takes a few drops of water, though, and then they work fine.
I love mine and use it all the time. For me, the cons are outweighed by the usefulness of being able to peel, core, and slice an apple in seven seconds. I'll never go back to a sideways peeler.

This item is so small cheap and simple, AND AWESOME! I bought two for myself (one for home one for work) plus one for my mom as a gift! It makes peeling citrus fruits (mainly oranges) a breeze! no more orange peel bits stuck under your fingernails, no more trying to scrape off thick peices of peel that are hopefuly stuck to the outside of the orange. It really is a simple and USEFUL gadget.

I agree with the previous poster. I had my original Kuhn peeler for over 10 years. Despite it rusting in a few spots, the blade remained extremely sharp. The only reason I had to buy another was because this past Thanksgiving, I had relatives over and someone accidentally threw mine away while they were helping cleaning up the kitchen. I didn't notice it was gone until days later when I couldn't find it and the garbage man had already gone by.
I decided to give this one a try and found that although the blade appears to be sharp to the touch, it didnot peel like the original peeler. I had to make several passes over the same areas to peel and even then it didn't peel as well as I have liked. I haven't tried it on carrots or kiwis but definately don't plan on using once I get my new "original" style peeler I'll be ordering here instead. I'd like to order the stainless steel one but I'm reluctant now.
