Not the Apple Peeler of my dreams, but adequate

The art of putting the fruit, vegetable, or in my case, an apple on the machine to get it peeled is a little tricky; even trickier to remove since one has to be rather careful in removing the apple and then readjusting the blade arm. The is a whole section of apple which remains unpeeled at the top and bottom. The machine just peels the larger circumference. To make several apple pies in one go is not as quick as I had desired. But, all in all, this little gizmo is helpful. Wise to read and re-read the instructions several times for raising the blade arm, for cleaning it and for replacing the peeling razor (extras stored under the main body). The materials used in creating this Electric Peeler are a little light...mostly plastic or something. So far, it works reasonably well.

Good idea but made to cheap.

I like the idea that was thought of making this product but it is made so cheap. It is not made for anything thing other then for potatoes. It can't even be to large of a potatoes because it will probably tip over it is so light and made out of the cheapest and thinnest plastic. I tried oranges and it peeled it but it kept falling off, when you try to secured the orange the just comes out spreading all over the machine and table. It was a good idea but doesn't work to good on nothing but small and medium potatoes.

Time saver

This is a time saver when peeling potatoes for breakfast. Takes a few seconds to place on it, press a button, then watch how quick it peels. Make sure to place a bowl, paper towels, or a small plate to catch the peels next to it. I am happy with it and the ease of getting my potatoes done in less time than doing by hand.

Best item for peeling ever !!!!!

I bought one of these years ago on line from a different company. The best item I have purchased so far for peeling. Attach the potato, turn on and you can do something else while it peels. I bought another two for a friend and her daughter. They just love it. I have seen it in your store, but it was not the electric one. Great product !!!!!

Potato Peeler works Real Well

It works real well on Potatoes. Time saver. hand saver It does make a groove in the potatoes (it is not smooth like a standard hand peeler. it holds about a 5 or 6 in potatoes, if you get the extra large potatoes, you will have to cut in half. I tried a few apples, and oranges, and it made more of a mess. If you have grandchildren, this will have them help out in the kitchen. If you peel a lot of potatoes I would say purchase one.

Peeler review

This peeler makes peeling much easier. We have been using it for peeling apples. It does not core or slice but I didn't want that. We have a hand crank one that does that and it is very messy. This peeler will leave a little peeling on the top of the apple at a little at the bottom but I just cut it off with a knife. If your apples, like mine from my place, have a few blemishes it will sometimes leave part of that. My only complaint which is very minor is that with these type of apple it will plug up the cutting blade. So if your apples are more perfect it should not be an issue.

This is a great item!!!!

We have canned over 250lbs of potatoes in the last 2 weeks and this peeler is great. It peeled big ones and small, even potatoes that were funny shaped. It saved me so much time and we aren't done canning yet. I can't wait to try it on apples!!!! Its a great price for all the work it does!!!

It Really Works!

I love to cook but hate peeling potatoes! I came across this 'Rotato' (extra star for the clever name!) and figured it wouldn't really work but the reviews insisted it worked well. I was impressed that it works so well and I'll be using it frequently; it's a little awkward looking and I have to keep it in the box to store it, but it's worth it!

Lightweight and easy to use and clean

I am very happy with this purchase. I have tried it out on potatoes and apples and it peels them super quick. So much so that I peeled 5 lbs. of apples and then had to think of creative ways in which to use them! I love how the peel comes off in one long strand. I kept "peeling" a potato and turned it into some really good "curly cue" fries. I think I will be using this gadget quite a bit.

Peeling Hard Pears!

Pears-cooking variety were not the best to try this device on but that is what I needed help with. Peeled 1/2 bushel box of pears in about two hours which saved some sore hands and fingers. I would not pull the device out for just a couple of apples, etc. Have already offered it to church group that still does canning. Good Luck!
