Not bad not great

Does a nice job of slicing, peeling and coring apples that are fairly evenly shaped all the way around. Not so good at all three operations when the apple is not evenly shaped. Had to remove them from the peeler and do them by hand....which were quite a few. Also need to continually check the alignment of the slicer/corer to make sure they were in line with the feed arm otherwise it can be easily bent out of shape. Haven't tried it yet with potatoes.
Great for big jobs

I bought this peeler to prepare apples for dehydration. In a matter of two days I peeled/cored/and sliced about 200 apples. This tool stayed put on the counter and never jammed. It worked like a charm, and made the task much much easier!
It does as it says.

This gadget does what it says it does and does it fairly well. The suction base is somewhat weak and I have to re-suction it frequently when processing large amounts of produce.
I do wish it had additional threaded shafts that would allow it to slice different thicknesses (I used to have one that did) but I can't hold that against it.
It sure beats processing things by manually performing thees tasks.
saves time

Sure beats hand peeling when you have a lot of apples to get through. We had a good apple year and definitely needed this peeler. The only problem is if the apples get too soft, they break instead of going through.

It's a great product and comes in very handy for anyone who needs to peel potatoes or has lots of apples or pears. It is versitile and can either peel - core - slice, or just peel them. Saves time and is easy to clean.
