This apple corer is very nicely made ... stainless steel blades embedded in aluminum handle.

Two minor complaints:

1) Made in China (I prefer to buy U.S. built products whenever possible)
2) center hole for apple core is a little small. Even if perfectly centered on apple, I occasionally have to dig out pieces of apple seed from the apple segments.

I've tried many of these slicers and the plastic ones will usually break st the handles after some use. This one is made from cast iron and is solid all the way - you can feel the difference just by picking it and it has a protective blade cover. I've been very pleased.

This is a sturdy, well-made cutter. The extra wide handles also help in forcing through a large apple. I purchased this product to replace a plastic-rimmed apple cutter, and this one is far superior. It is definitely worth the few extra dollars.

I chose to buy the Amco because it was made completely from metal and not plastic. It requires some force to use, but it slices well. If the apple is not uniform, you may have to trim some seeds. Overall, I am happy with the purchase because my kids want to eat more apples now that we have this corer.

This apple corer is very well made; maybe a little too well made. The blades are very thick and not as sharp as I would have expected. When coring an apple you need to push down very hard and fast. It definitely slices and cores, but it spits apple juice all over the counter and into my face.

I can't complain about the quality or the function, but it is a little messy.

I bought this to replace a plastic handled slicer that had lasted several years before breaking. This slicer has some heft that at fist made me think it would be too heavy, but after using it a few time I realized that the weight only helped. This is a quality product that makes slicing apples and pears very easy. Most impressive was the fact the sliced fruit and the core are easy to remove after the job is done.

This is solid, heavyweight, sharp and durable. The corer is a little small but I don't find that to be a problem. It cuts to the bottom of the apple which is nice. Only for small or medium sized apples, diameter is not large enough for all apple types so it will depend on what type you eat the most.
