Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Citrus Peeler
Customer Review: Great but not quite as good as that plastic Tupperware stick
Summary: 3 Stars
Years ago, someone gave me one of those little Tupperware plastic-stick citrus peelers, and that silly but effective thing gets used almost every morning to peel grapefruit or orange for breakfast. I wanted an extra one to use @ home (I keep the Tupperware stick in my desk drawer @ work), so thought I'd give this a try.
It's very good, and works as promised. But all in all, not quite as effective at peeling grapefruit or oranges as that dumb little plastic stick. With that stick, I can slip the "stick end" underneath the peel after I've sliced around the circumference, and can work the peel fully, easily away from the fruit. This compact little Oxo however, has no good way of doing that, so you have to use the "scraper" edge to get the peel off. Still effective, sure, but it takes longer and you have to be careful to not cut into the fruit.
On the positive side, it's well made and nicely designed like most all Oxo gadgets. And it won't disappoint...unless perhaps you really like those little Tupperware sticks, like I do.
Description of OXO Good Grips Citrus Peeler
Universal A-Peel without the pith! Juicy, sweet oranges and tart, delicious grapefruits are even more appealing when they're easy to peel. Try the OXO Good Grips Citrus Peeler with a pointed tip that scores the peel into sections and a flat edge that gets under the peel and pulls it off of the fruit with ease. The flat edge can also be used to remove the bitter pith.Cook's Tools & Gadgets
