I can't recommend this vegetable peeler because it's as dull as a stone! Don't they sharpen these things at the factory? It scrapes rather than cuts.

I gave it 2 stars because the handle is comfortable and if I'm able to sharpen the blades myself, it might become a decent tool.

I bought this peeler because it was inexpensive and the coated handle would be more comfortable than my all-metal peeler. I was immediately disappointed with this from the first carrot I tried to peel. As the other reviewer noted, this peeler just isn't sharp enough. I gave it a second try a few days later and got so frustrated with it, I almost threw it in the trash right then and there. My also-inexpensive "old fashioned" all-metal peeler runs rings around this one. All this item will peel is about four dollars from your wallet.

This peeler works OK but I am left handed and still find it hard to peel pototates with this peeler. I still like the older metal ones they had years ago.

I like the way it handled unlike other flimsy cheap peelers and thinking "surgical stainless steel" I thought this would make peeling potatoes and fruits fast and easy... so I thought. It took me quite a while to peel my first sweet potatoes because this thing is just not sharp enough. I worked with the peeler that sliced off finger tips before, but so-called "surgical" blades is not cutting it for me. It just takes too long with this that I rather use a knife..

I bought this because of the slightly retro look--next time I'm going for function over form. It's super-cheap in more ways than one. Really doesn't work very well at all. Not recommended.

This peeler is all metal with an enamel covered handle... it's very comfortable to hold, easy to use and even works right or left handed! The best peeler I've ever had and it was super cheap!

What a deal!
