Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive Jumbo Potato Cutter

Customer Review: So far, so good
Summary: 4 Stars

When I was shopping for this French fry cutter, I read reviews of a number of others. In almost every case, there was at least one bad review, i. e. the cutter wasn't sturdy and broke, it wouldn't cut anything with any hardness to it, it was so small that one must cut large potatoes into pieces in order to get them to fit etc. etc.

I took a risk on this one, because there were no reviews on it. I am happy to report that everything is working OK so far. The cutter is big enough to accept even rather large russet potatoes. As far as ease of use goes, it does take some effort to push a potato through -- then again, the potatoes I have on hand right now are russets, and are fairly firm and crisp. I'm sure that softer potatoes would be easier to push through.

Cleanup is a breeze; the blade grate comes out quite easily, and everything that gets dirty on it is easy to get at. It's much easier to clean up than a mandolin slicer, for example (as well as easier to use).

The one feature that really doesn't work is the suction pad on the bottom. It holds for a second or two, and then the unit pops off the counter. This really isn't a problem, because I just hold it down with one hand while I work the lever with the other.

My main caveat regarding this device is that I'm a sort of a big guy, and I don't have a problem (usually) with muscling things. A dainty housewife might have a little trouble pushing a big potato through this unit; in that case she should probably recruit her husband.

All in all, I would recommend this device for anyone's kitchen, as it sure beats making potatoes into French fries with a knife. My only other concern is that it might break at some point -- but my gut feeling is that it's going to last long enough to make it worth what I paid for it.

Description of Progressive Jumbo Potato Cutter

Sturdy enough to slice up a large potato in one motion, the Progressive Jumbo Potato Cutter features two separate blades for thin or thick slicing and an extra strong suction cup base to minimize slipping. Great for carrots, zucchini, yams, or any other vegetable you want turned into perfect slices. And of course, it's perfect for making French fries!
