5.0 out of 5 stars The best! Quick and easy. July 18, 2006
I recently purchased the corn zipper. Absolutely terrific gadget. Fast, fun to use, easy to use and a nice sturdy quality tool. I have other gadgets for removing corn from the cob but this one is by far the best.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works, mostly December 30, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase
I want to love this product but it's not perfect. However, it's still better than any other way I have found.

Very well made (as are all Kuhn-Rikon products) in hefty stainless, with very sharp blades. The blade is about two-kernels wide and strips two rows per stroke. Which is ok, but of course, the varying widths of a kernel guarantees you are slicing through kernels much of the time. Still, beats a knife which always slashes kernels open with every stroke.

Best feature: You can generally get it to remove the kernel without leaving much behind or snagging some cob. This is fairly easy to do but not without some struggle to keep it from hanging up mid-stroke.

Someday, someone will think of a way to strip kernels off cleanly and wholly. Until then, this is the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars truly zipped along August 9, 2007

I bought this so I could put up a bushel of corn quickly. It worked. I read the other ratings for corn zipper and was a little apprehensive about getting it. I shouldn't have been. It worked beautifully.

1.0 out of 5 stars Knife still works better!! August 3, 2006
I tried the corn zipper and think that an old fashioned knife still works better. With the Corn Zipper it only cuts one row of corn and a knife you are able to one whole side of the cob and can do it in half the time. Didn't work for me Sorry!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Works - slowly - but works! September 23, 2006
The Corn Zipper works great - really great - the only negative is the small amount of corn it removes at one time. (1-2 rows) I will still use it because for some reason I make a lot less mess than when I use a knife. I'd be really excited if they'd make a wider one and I'm sure they will - give 'em time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Try it...you'll like it! August 7, 2007
Nice item! And it really works. Did 36 ears of corn in a little under an hour. Takes a few tries to get used to it and figure out how to hold it properly but it works like a charm.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good way to strip fresh corn from cob.
Rather than use canned corn, buy fresh summer corn and strip the kernels from the cob for your recipes. This makes it quick and easy.

Not what expected. I got 3 ears of corn done with a knife before my husband got one done with this product.
