This is easy to use and cuts through apples very well. Very pleased with this purchase.

Allow me to explain my apparently absurd title... Some people have complained that it arrived cracked or dull, or that it cracked or broke within an unreasonable time. Apparently they did not read the card that the corer came attached to. On it OXO states: "Satisfaction Guarantee: If for any reason your are not satisfied with this product, return it for repair, replacement, or refund." To me this means if it has anything wrong with it or you don't like it for any reason, you can return it for a repair, replacement, or refund tomorrow or 3 years from now. There is no time limit in the statement; there is no asterisk with fine print following. So, unless OXO is lying, it is guaranteed virtually forever. Next my own experience. I received mine from Amazon a week ago (no cracks in the plastic, the blades are sharp) and have been using it since then, just preparing a single apple at a time for my own pleasure. I really like how quickly and easily I can get an apple ready to eat! I wish I had gotten one of these years ago so I would have eaten more apples and fewer less healthful snacks. (Personal note: my teeth aren't very good for biting so if an apple isn't sliced I'm much less likely to want to eat it.) I don't have a cutting board so I have been cutting right on my small ceramic serving plate. I have found it cuts smoothly and easily if I rock it a little as I push it down to keep in control and not smash the plate. (In this case it is probably a good thing the frame is plastic and not metal.) I am grateful to the reviewer who suggested to slice off the bottom 1/8" of the apple before using the corer so that the skin doesn't hold it all together and make it hard to separate the slices. That little effort makes a huge difference; the slices will just fall right out (by themselves or with a gentle poke) when you finish the downstroke. All you have to do is wiggle the core loose (note update below) and rinse off the corer and you are ready to eat. This is the first of these that I've ever used so I can't compare with others, although I did shop around on Amazon and saw that OXO makes an all metal version for a couple of dollars more for those who don't think plastic will last. Also I saw another manufacturer who claimed their product was "large" so that might be a better choice for those who need to slice larger apples (although this one seems to have plenty of room left over with the apples I've sliced so far). It's an unqualified winner for me, so it gets my full five stars. UPDATE 8/24/13: One more tip - after making the cut, you can break off the apple core close to the corer and push the little core stub DOWN through the hole thus avoiding the risk of cutting your fingers on the sharp side of the blades.

This works really well on normal and smaller apples. It cuts clean, removes the core, and is much faster than cutting everything up with a knife, especially when I’m making apples for the kids. The issue is bigger apples. The opening just isn’t large enough for some of them, so you either have to force it down or cut the apple first, which defeats the purpose. That’s the main reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Overall it’s sturdy, comfortable to push down, and works exactly as expected as long as your apples aren’t too big. I just wish OXO made the cutting area slightly wider.

Sharp and easy to make apple slices; does not come with a cover which would help

Made very well and does a great job of slicing my apples. Would buy again.

I like apples and can cut and core with the best of them, but it does get a bit tedious when I want to add cut apples to a dinner menu at the last moment. I finally broke down and got this apple slicer and am delighted with it. One reviewer said it didn't work well with large apples, but the ones I buy (Gala, Pink Lady, Cosmic Crisp) are smaller and this slicer is just the right size. The slices come out neat and clean without any bits of core. Occasionally, however, I will come across a wonky apple that is somewhat tilted, but the bit of core that adheres to the slices is easily cut away. The slicer is easy to clean - I think it can go in the dishwasher but I prefer to wash by hand. The handles make the slicer easy to handle and cutting the apple a pleasure. Great product!

This OXO apple slicer works great. Easy to use very durable and perfect for making quick healthy snacks with apples. Saving me time and my family is eating healthier snacks. I don’t have a big kitchen or a lot of storage so this fits perfect in my kitchen drawer.

Well made. Easy to use. Second Oxo product bought. Quality and value.

Buena compra. Cumple su función. Permite cortar manzanas con facilidad. Se batalla un poco en quitar la parte del centro pero fuera de eso muy buen producto.
