1.0 out of 5 stars Buy this if you want to feel like a total RETARD., August 9, 2009

This is the worst kitchen gadget I have ever used. I thought this would be really cool, but I was wrong. I used a wire version once and liked it, and I felt like a total retard for wasting my money on this plastic POS. This will mash your avocados instead of slice them, then you'll work twice as hard trying to clean the darned thing. Just use a knife, or if you must have a gadget try the wire one. I thought about giving this away or putting it in the box destined for charity, then decided to throw it in the garbage instead in order to save somebody else from having a frustrating time using it.

2.0 out of 5 stars not as cool as I thought it'd be..., March 4, 2007

I used an avocado smaller than the tool, so I had to uncomfortably squeeze the tool until it'd fit. Then it kind of smooshed my avocado into slices that were not attractive, while leaving a layer of unused avocado in the shell.
It made me realize that it's not *that* hard to slice an avocado with a paring knife... oh well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works great but doesn't wear well, April 29, 2008

I absolutely loved this gadget as soon as I got it. You're not going to get it right on your first avocado, but once you figure it out, you'll have perfect slices every time.

You must squeeze it to the size of your avocado, then scoop really deep to get all the flesh.

I use this even when I want to mash my avocado, because it works better than a spoon to get everything out. If I do miss some, I just go back and scoop some more.

I took away a star because if you don't wash it immediately, it's very hard to clean and it just gets more and more nasty over time. Mine is badly discolored now. (I eat a lot of avocados.) This hasn't affected the performance, though.
