Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Apple Master Apple Peeler, Corer, and Slicer, Colors Vary
Customer Review: Apple Master Peeler, Corer, Slicer falls short
Summary: 2 Stars
Had this product since Christmas and processed about three dozen apples of various sizes with it. Or tried to process I should have said. Granted, if you are real careful and go SLOW it MIGHT do a reasonable job--depending on the apple shape and firmness. In fact, it might even be fun. On the other hand, it's often a mess. Here's why:
--The slicing/coring blade moves around all the time and has to be constantly adjusted. Had to put a rubber patch behind it to increase the friction and reduce the slipping. Also the blade edge is dull and has to be constantly sharpened (ditto the dull edges on the coring part of the blade.) Speaking of the coring part, you have to press firmly against it as it starts into the apple to keep it from bending backwards. It's pretty flimsy.
--The peeling "blade" (it's a semicircular affair) constantly jams up with peel and even when not doing so, doesn't do a very good job.
In short, whoever designed this thing must have flunked 5th grade shop (or been in 5th grade at the time!) Terrible design! (And to think we put a man on the moon--astonishing!)
I must say that the dual suction/screw type base works well, and the horrible little machine is made of nice aluminum. After that, it's all downhill. Now to look for something else (can't give up apples now can I?) Surely, there is a better design on the market.
