Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

There’s nothing better or faster for peeling, slicing, and coring apples than this old-fashioned tool, whether you need apples for applesauce, homemade pies, canning, or snacking. Simply attach the heavy-duty cast-iron corer to a countertop using the suction base, push an apple or potato onto the three-tined fork, and turn the crank. This spirals the fruit past a small spring-mounted blade that does the peeling. For peeling only, detach the slicer-corer blade; for slicing and coring without peeling, pivot the peeler arm to the side. All of the blades on this Pinzon tool are constructed of durable stainless steel for years of trouble-free service. This tool measures approximately 5-1/2 inches high by 10 inches wide by 4-1/2 inches deep. To preserve the tool, wash only by hand. This corer is imported.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast, Easy & Fun, April 27, 2009

A brief video showing the Pizon Apple P/C/S in action. I was surprised that the gadget works as well as it does and is so easy to use and clean up. I neglected to mention in the video that you can lock the peeling arm back if you only want to core and slice your apples. It is solid product that will have a home in my kitchen for a good time to come.

UPDATE (08/29/2011): It has been over 2 years now and the Pinzon Peeler is still going strong. I've had no issues with the suction cup. This has proven to be a useful and versatile kitchen implement. For what it is worth, this peeler is essentially the same unit as the Back to Basics, RSVP and Victorio models, so purchase according to price.

UPDATE (11/21/2011): Still using the peeler a lot and during apple season it sees even more use. I've started just coring an apple and putting in my kids' lunch bags. It is a healthy snach and they have fun eating at school in the unique 'slinky' shape.

Great little device. Quick and easy and safer than using a knife. Just be careful, the slicer and peeler are sharp. Simply attach to your counter, slide on an apple and turn the crank. It's that easy!

Must be washed by hand with soap and water. Although, there is not much residue left behind.

4.0 out of 5 stars It does more than peel apples, April 30, 2009

In this video review I show some dishes that can be prepared using the Pinzon Apple Peeler, Corer and Slicer. Yes, it was designed for apples but it can do much more. I demonstrate how it will also peel potatoes as well as make ribbons out of vegetables such as carrots, zucchini, yellow squash and parsnips. This is my first video review and there are a few glitches but I hope that it is helpful.
