There is nothing to dislike about this peeler.
SAFETY
Kuhn Rikon had safety in mind when they used this silicone(-like) material to envelope the handle, which makes for a non-slippery grip. It's very comfortable to hold as well.
DESIGN
The design is very pretty with the bright color option (yellow or red); I don't have to look closely in my drawer to find it. No more looking among a drawer full of metal-finished utensils.
FINALLY, PERFORMANCE
I haven't tested Kuhn Rikon's claim on the packaging that it can peel a tomato, but for everything else, it works for me. It starts peeling right where you "nail" it on the vegetable/fruit with its serrated cutting edge. No more running down a root vegetable with several attempts before any of its skin is grabbed for stripping. Love it!

i had a no name japanese peeler and this peeled at the same ease as my previous one. As with all peelers, I had to apply a even pressure on the handle. The rubbery plastic handle was easy to use and grip. I wish there was a segment at the end of the peeler to dig out core ends. This one didn't have it so I always had to use a small paring knife. The peeler is sharply serrated, so after peeling the fruit/vegetable it doesn't look smooth or clean. Instead the serrated lines are very visible on the fruits and vegetables. If you are peeling vegetables or fruits for presentations and want a smooth finish, this is not the peeler for you.

My husband loves this peeler, and says that it peels better than any he has used. The real test was tomatoes, and it peeled only skin(he's alot better at peeling tomatoes than I am). The grip is really good; even if you get juices from tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. on your hands, you can still grip it with ease.

Every once in a while someone gets a product right. This one is it. Solid feel, quality design, and strong sharp blade make this one a winner. I am purchasing another 2 as gifts I'm so happy with it.

The weirdness comes in with the serrated edge on the peeler--everything looks like corduroy. But it's attractive once you get used to it. Fast, efficient, good product. And I won't lose it amongst the brown potato peelings--we'll see what happens with the carrots. Har.

This is undoubtedly the best vegetable peeler I have ever used. I first saw one at my sister-in-laws home and found it to be much better than any other I had used. I purchased one for myself and as we have a family meal quite regularly with our grown up children and our grand children it wasn't long before my daughters and daughter-in-law had tried it too. They were all surprised at how easy and effective it is to use so we bought one for each of them. It might not look much different to others on the market but believe me, it is the best!

This is an incredibly well designed vegetable peeler. I usually dread peeling potatoes because I grew up in an Irish/American household where we had potatoes with literally every meal and I was often the one peeling them...for a large family at that. So, if someone had told me there was a normal, non-electrical potato peeler that would make me enjoy, even look forward to peeling...I would not have believed them in a million years. Still, this one is so great I bought extras to give as presents and everyone I gave them to, raved about them later. A+

Not Swiss made anymore.
This replaced an old swiss made peeler that lasted many years. It has a cheap plastic feel to it and the blade rusted after being left used on the counter for a few hours. Read more

Best Ever
This peeler is wonderful. It's sharp, doesn't skip and does not jam. I believe the serrated blade makes the difference.

Amazing!
I love these peelers.
You know how sometimes you have a hard time peeling cucumbers because the skin is so smooth and thick?
Well these babies just cut through them. Read more

Just as sharp as it was 4 years ago, and we use it daily.
Love this peeler. It's so sharp I don't let my little children use it. I've cut my finger a few times. But, for peeling fruits and thin pepper slices for mexican food it's a dream! Read more
