OXO Good Grips Julienne Peeler

Good ergonomics, sharp, light. comfortable, does the job

Okay, here's the deal, I like carrots, and I like to work them into my meals in a convenient non intrusive way. Ie.. a lot of carrot in little tiny shreds. I can use a Nakari knife and work them down, but GEEZ takes too long! (Carrots are dang well tough) So I went on quest of sorts, how many times could I make UPS show up at my house within the same week; lol, and this was one of the products I tried of four. MIU France Stainless Steel Swiss Peeler, Julienne Blade http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004ISKZYQ/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Ultra Sharp Julienne Peeler & Vegetable Peeler - Precision Kitchenware http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FF75XG4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 & Brieftons Spiral Slicer (I used and left a review of this product) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CBVCVLM/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Now, this is the SECOND product I have used, in my attempt to get carrots into shreds. Ultra Sharp above and MIU France I still have in the packaging. I am going to keep them around just in case. Anyways, this oxo worked so well, I actually smiled when I first used it, especially after my frustrating nightmare experience with that Spiral Slicer. The oxo Julienne peeler has worked as intended, I didn't apply much pressure at all, the blade was really sharp and dug into the carrot, going long ways obviously, with no issues what so ever, and it shredded what I sliced with no issues. Now because of the way things work.. the very top tip portion that I cut off the carrot, was not shredded, but it was a very small section and actually worked in my favor. Little carrot strands didn't end up everywhere. I had tried a regular Oxo peeler in the past on whim, and I've had it for years now literally, and its always worked great, so that led me to give this product a shot. And it didn't disappoint. (Another reviewer mentioned how companies would change manufactures/suppliers, so keep this in mind) One thing I wanted to mention that you might want to be on guard about, are the teeth for this food tool are very thin. They are about 8th of an inch distance wide. STRONG ADVICE: So like a knife you that was sharp and you wanted to keep it that way, you need to clear a space out in your kitchen somewhere for this tool, because I can only imagine if you bent the teeth on this thing or dull it by abuse, that'll be all she wrote on functional tool. And it looks like it would be easy to do. So just a heads up.

it shreds carrots beauitifully into thin strands that is perfexct for stir fry, I used it also to peel the skin and threw it in a. pot to make vegetabel soup , As for cabbage, does not do as well. I think perhops I shoudl try again. Cabbage is softer and shreds, I had to cut the cabbage into wedges and try , cut off the core, then tried shredding it Perhaps, i shoudl practice some more. However, it is a keepr and for thsoe who likes stir fry asian food, this is a must!!!

Easy to use, super sharp and makes perfect julienne veggies. I tested it out on carrots and quickly did 2 carrots to make a delicious and nutritious carrot salad with asian dressing! I'm taking it in my suitcase, as I'm moving from CA to HI and my household goods will take 3 weeks -- don't think I can live 3 weeks without it -- it's that good! I'm a vegan and I eat a lot of chinese chicken salad (minus the chicken) and instead of store bought salad kits I wanted to make my own to save money, this little gizmo is perfect for making that salad!!!

Works great peeling zucchini for zucchini spaghetti! Very sharp so be careful. Great OXO quality.

I use this to make zucchini noodles. It works okay for that purpose. It does not work great for the softer interior of the zucchini. It works fine on carrots and cucumbers. There is no way to sharpen it but the sharpness seems to be maintaining.

This julienne peeler is great for making zucchini noodles. The blades are very sharp, as they should be, so I keep my fingers well away from them. To wash, I use a scrub brush and then air dry. The small size makes it convenient for storage, too. If you grow zucchini, here is a tip: Let your zucchini grow a little too big (marrow size) if you want to use it for zoodles. That way, the zucchini will be easier to hold while keeping your fingers out of the way of the julienne peeler blades. Also, you will have more flesh to work with (as opposed to seedy core) and longer length zoodles.

Fits well in the hand, makes peeling fast. Best design and seems to be holding up well.

Trevlig, stabil, gör morötter fina.

Good for making salads and julienned strips for carrots, cucumber, pomelo, mango and the likes! It makes making salads easier.

Me ha gustado mucho pues, comparandolo con los típicos espirilizadores sale ganando en muchos aspectos. Para empezar, con este aparato puedes aprovechar toda la verdura consiguiendo resultados más que aceptables, no ocupa casi nada y se lava con mucha facilidad. Además, todo lo de OXO tiene una gran calidad.

J’avais auparavant un éplucheur en plastique et franchement, et celui-ci n’a rien à voir 😅. Il est vraiment de très bonne qualité et épluche très bien. Comme souvent avec les produits OXO, la prise en main est très agréable : le manche est assez épais, ce qui permet de bien le tenir et de l’utiliser facilement. Très contente de cet achat, il est solide et agréable à utiliser au quotidien.

Super afilado, el protector de la cuchilla es muy practico, no esperaba menos de la marca
