Swisspro Vegetable Peeler

And anyone can use it, whether you are right handed, left handed, or -like a politician -underhanded. It's Swiss quality! See that loop on the side? That gets the eyes of your potatoes, and cleans up pineapples without wasting any fruit! It even slices cheese into wafer thin slices, effortlessly!

I have 3 years buying this peeler and absolutely love it and will never use another as long as I can. It peels everything so easily, quickly and slices thin as well. Like coleslaw? Well this makes thin slivers of cabbage a breeze.The handle can be turned around to scoop out the guts of a melon, pumpkin etc... The notch on the side pulls out the eyes of potatoes easy as well.

I have arthric hands and cannot peel without causing me much pain but with this wide handle, I can for long periods of time without effort. I gift these to all the cooks I know and we are all in awe of this great product.

I will be honest and state that it does rust easily if you do not oil the hinge after every use (cooking oil is all that is needed), and is not dishwahser safe but it is worth the effort.

I've had this for over a year, and I love it. Everyone that ever used it in my kitchen also loved it.

Just be careful and don't use it for peeling small or round things like apples for example, or you'll cut nice thin pieces of your holding thumb just like I did.

This peeler is perfect for big potatoes, squash, carrots, cucumbers, or anything that's elongated.

Also, do not wash it in the dishwasher, or leave it in water. Just rinse it right after use and hang it to dry. You don't want rust on it, do ya?

The peeler works well and is similar to other peelers in this style (I also have a Swissmar).

However, it rusts very quickly.

I bought in early January 2013, it's now early February 2013. I've used the peeler 3 or 4 times.

There is already rust on the edges of the blade, and where the blade and handle meet. I'll upload pictures.

I've only hand-washed it, followed by shaking it off and hanging it to dry. In theory, there should be little to no water on it by the time I hang it. What this means is that any water on it will rust.

My Swissmar is 4 years old with no rust. The Swissmar is stainless steel and this one appears to be carbon steel, which is more prone to rusting. The Swissmar blade is thinner and seems less sturdy than Swisspro, however if it is going to constantly rust, what's the point.

My opinion: avoid it. Too much maintenance for little to no benefit compared to other products.

I've been using the same peeler for at least 10 years. It is finally starting to die slowly. I never oiled it, washed it in the dishwasher all the time. It just kept working like it was new all these years. I bought it at a flea market in Stormville, NY for about $2.50. I sure have gotten my money's worth.
