Zyliss E910025 Potato and Vegetable Chipper, Plastic/Stainless Steel, White, Manual Handheld Chipper for Potato Chipper/Vegetable Chipper, Dishwasher Safe

I have been using Zyliss french fries cutter since 1995. I am not a heavy user so the cutter has lasted for such a long time. Lately the blades have become dull. So I ordered their new cutter. It took several weeks to get here from UK. It arrived here yesterday. I opened it up and saw that one plastic tab on 7mm pusher was broken. Without two tabs the pusher will not stay in place. I contacted Amazon today. After lengthy chat I was told they I will have to return the whole thing. It is shame that the manufacturer can not ship one small part to me. Just imagine the back and forth shipping cost to UK. Overall cutter appears to be of high quality, yet they have put cheap thin plastic tabs on the pusher. This is definitely poor engineering. Now I have to return the whole thing and reorder again and wait for several week to arrive here in the USA.

Just arrived, first use absolutely fantastic! Quite a lot of pressure is needed to cut the potato, but a couple bangs on the handle and the whole process is done! Super quick and am going to save so much time!! Yet to try the french fry cutter, but so far super impressed. I was very doubtful and didn’t have faith in the product due to reviews but this is super fantastic! Would recommend. Even my daughter was impressed

Overall,really pleased with this.Its really sturdy,hygenic and easy to clean.Copes with small/medium potatoes no drama-any bigger,just chop them in half!Its a big beast and needs a bit of room in your cupboard rather than a cutlery drawer.The Elephant in the room?2 slicing plates provided,the smaller one creates uselessly small chips,even the standard plate produces chips a tad smaller than I would hand-cut.Zyliss-take note-ditch the smaller plate and add a coarser plate for those of us who like our chips cut reasonably chunky!Or at least make a coarser plate available for your pre-existing purchasers.One last note-some reviewers have complained the finished cut chips come out (marginally) curved.Get over yourself folks!

As a family of 4 we eat quite a few homemade chips. This chipper has reduced the time taken in making enough chips for us all. Slicing potatoes with a knife is now in the past, just pop them in the opening and press down the handle. Chips made and ready for soaking before cooking.We tried this on a carrot and think it will make chopping and slicing of vegetables much quicker.

While you are limited to the length of a potato you can insert, this is the best chipper I've found so far. You must push the potato through in one fell swoop, otherwise you may find yourself jammed. Don't hesitate, just push with all your might all at once and follow through and it'll work like a charm. I cut my potatoes in half lengthwise. And yes, they are as skinny as McDonald's fries. I do wish I could make the chops longer, but given its design, the longest chip you can make is maybe 2.5 inches or so. Nothing beats a steel wall mounted chipper, but those are expensive and hard to find. This does the trick at a reasonable price.

this cutter works extremely well on potatoes and on softer things like cooked vegetables. it will also work well on hard vegatables like carrots and onions if you cut them inot smaller pieces and run them through one piece at a time ( which actually doesnt take that long ). I have found you can use it to cube them if you collect the chip shaped pieces that come out and run them through again.very good productprobably better than lever based cutters which in my view dont make much sense physically.only thing I would have wanted is a third cutter size for something like potato wedges.those having trouble with the amount of force being too high its probably coz of 2 reasons related to incorrect use1. if something catches on the side as it goes through you are going to need to hammer it to go through. make sure what you want to cut is smaller than the width of the cutter. another important point is to ensure the vegetable goes through at the right angle if the angle is awkward thats when it twists as it goes through. this would obviously increase the force needed to push it through. 90 degree angle orientation is best2 dnt try to cut huge things in one go. if the lever contacts the potato after only 10 degrees of motion relative to its starting point at the top of its motion, obviously its going to get stuckthus with proper use this thing is a joy to usedefinitely recommend
