5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding performance, October 28, 2008

I purchased this peeler as a replacement in the event that my original peeler of the same kind should ever break. I've had the original peeler for over 8 years and it's still just as sharp as ever. I HIGHLY recommend this ceramic peeler to anyone looking to replace their steel bladed peeler. It's well worth the extra money in superior performance that never seems to end. Just a tip: The ceramic blade is very hard but can be chipped if impacted with other utensils or hard surfaces. I recommend washing and storing it separately for years of trouble free performance.

This is a good product in general. The ceramic blade is sharp and does a good job peeling potatoes and carrots and cucumbers. We've been using this one for 6 months now and there are problems. We keep it in the "utensil" drawer with all the other accumulated kitchen stuff and it's held up just fine.

The only possible negative is that if you've got big hands and are peeling small vegetables then it gets tricky. I even managed to nick my finger tip on a small potato ... patience is a virtue here so take your time.

I'd buy this again...

This is an excellent peeler for those extra wide tasks, for instance making zucchini noodles, similar to lasagna width. It's also great at peeling mangos.

It is very sharp, I already cut myself on it, so caution is recommended. Also because it is ceramic be careful about dropping it as ceramic breaks very easily.
