1 out of 5 stars Overpriced Hunk of Plastic   January 25, 2008

Why hasn't someone made this product in stainless steel? This spiral slicer is the worst piece of equipment I have in my kitchen. Besides emitting a nasty plastic smell, it's cheap and flimsy. It only works (kind of) on soft veggies which is not useful in the raw foodie world. This is an item I would expect to see in Chinatown for a few bucks. Too bad that's not the case; that's all it's worth. Save your money and buy elsewhere.

I bought this thinking that I could make wonderful angel hair pasta with zucchini. Wrong. The shreds are so fine that they are only good for garnishing. After putting pesto onto the zucchini it turned into mush. I then tried carrots. Carrots are VERY difficult to do. You must put ALL your weight on it and turn. The shreds are great for garnishing a salad but I can do the same thing with a hand shredder that I already have. I tried apples since my kids wanted to play with it and they didn't have the strength to do the carrots. The apples turned into mush.

I am now looking for a horizontal type slicer that I saw in a Japanese store. Don't bother with this one.

I was so excited to buy this product, but it is a pain to operate. The turning handle operation doesn't always turn the produce, it sort of just mashes it. We've found that the best way to slice the produce using this is to take off the lid and just manually feed the vegies in - it's a pain.
