3.0 out of 5 stars Good and Bad features, June 4, 2008

By	Army Aviation1 "Army Aviation 1" (Illinois) - See all my reviews

For the money this is not a bad spiral slicer considering some list for over 100 dollars. The real sticking point is the fixed forward axle for whatever you are slicing. It consists of a round hollow cutting edge with an approximate 3/8 opening. This simply means whatever you are slicing will lose a 3/8 cylinder from its center. This is accepatable with Cucumbers and Zuchini but does not leave much when slicing Carrots, Raddishes or any other small diameter veggies.
I would not recommend this if you intend to use it for these smaller veggies but for potatoes, Apples and the like it is OK.

4.0 out of 5 stars Spiral cutter is sturdy., March 10, 2008

By	Don Baker (Greenview, IL United States) - See all my reviews

Cuts well, comes with 3 blades, takes seconds to clean. Cutting the spirals after with kitchen shears works better than the recommended slicing vegetable before spiral cutting. Machine fairly sturdy. Surpised at how well sweet potatoes apples and beets go together with Newman's Own lime salad dressing. Core apples and pears before cutting. Carrots are almost too small.

Love it, use it frequently. Great for RAW.

If this one breaks might actually think about getting the $300 all metal version.

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy purchase, July 23, 2008

By	C, Radical - See all my reviews

So far, after having the spirooli slicer for 3 weeks, I am quite happy with the product. I have one complaint which would not prevent me from buying it again. Main complaint, the fact that it is made of plastic: I don't fully trust that the plastic crank arm will last forever but it works well and is easy to clean. The plastic arm you must use to apply pressure allowing the vegetable you are slicing to sit tightly against the cutting blades seems like a handle waiting to break. So I don't even use it. I have to place a thumb below the crank and my fingers grip the top of the slicer in order to apply enough even pressure to push the vegetable up against the blade while cranking it. An irritating design flaw. I would prefer that it was made out of stainless steel.

Other than that I am very happy with the product. It does exactly what it says it should do. As a matter of fact, the first time I used it on zucchini, it created an 18 foot long noodle!! Of course, THAT fascinated everyone. I've used it on yams, carrots, onions, zucchini and cucumber....all of which turned out just as I wanted.
