I have found these to be very handy. I've used them for kiwi, mangoes, even for making potato skins (I use the red one to scoop out some of the potato from its skin, leaving a nice shell to fill with cheese, etc). Because of their shapes, they are better than using a spoon to scoop stuff out. It takes a little finesse to use them, but I have found that they make certain prep jobs easier, safer (I don't need to use a knife in some cases), and less messy.

I just ordered these because I was looking for an easy way to cut up melons which I love to eat, but hate to prepare. I haven't used them on the melons yet, but this morning when my daughter and I were cleaning out our pumpkins for Halloween, they worked so well that my daughter asked me "where have these been all my life?". If they can handle pumpkins, they can handle melons. Now I can't wait to use them again.

They are as advertised. We have used them and work like they are suppose. Very pleased

READ ABOUT THESE AND SAW A CHEAPER VERSION ON TV, AND IT DIDN'T GET A VERY GOOD RATING, HOWEVER DECIDED TO GIVE THESE A CHANCE AND AM I HAPPY I DID; THEY ARE WELL MADE AND DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY PROMISE; SO MUCH EASIER TO CLEAN MY PEPPERS, DO FRUIT ETC; I REALLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO WORKS IN A KITCHEN; RAPID DELIVERY AND PACKED VERY WELL;

This is a great product. I have used the kiwi scoop and it saves a lot of time

These items are made of plastic and although they work to some extent, they tend to bend easily so it's a mixed bag.

I bought these for the place where I work where we prepare a lot of fruit.
The green one made really quick work of kiwi and the red one works well on mango.
The only problem I would say is that the large orange one isn't as sturdy as the other ones.

These scoops are great for a lot of things. There are some fruits that work better than others. I wouldn't recommend using them on things that are harder like apples or pears. Cantaloupe, watermelon, and kiwi have all been successes for me. I have found that the medium scoop can also substitute as an ice cream scooper should the need arise.

I tried these "scoops" on watermelon and cantelope to no avail. The term "scoops" indicates you can actually scoop something out. Not so. Yes, it would cut through the melons but you cannot "scoop" it out as the fruit just falls through the hole. Very disappointing and I should have known better. Would not recommend for anything. They are colorful.

Product mostly OK, but found that old method of scooping contents of melons, avocados, etc. is still easier and more efficient using good old thin-walled strong spoons. Delivery was prompt.
