Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler, Orange

best for peeling apples

Love this peeler! It has been a kitchen staple for decades. So glad they still make it. I replace when the blade goes dull. Get a bright color so you can find it in the drawer. AAA+

Works great, cheap price point. If you put this in the dishwasher it will rust. Might want to hand wash.

I posted and said, I processed a refund for this item but for the wrong reason. Then I had to use it just before shipping back and all I could think was 'what was I thinking'? It works great !!

I just read instructions to hand wash. But this rusted after going into dishwasher 1 time.

Favorite peeler, have used this brand for years

My mom asked me to get her a Y peeler because her hands were starting to hurt. I picked this one for her, and she was so happy with it. Easier for her old hands to handle, sharp enough to do the job smoothly without heavy pressure. She can just lay the carrot on the counter and slide the peeler down its length. The right tools are so important to make cooking enjoyable. She liked it so much I ended up buying an orange one for me. It works great, my only wish is that it were a bit weightier. Unlike my mom, I like a bit of heft and this peeler is all about light and smooth.

I love how sharp this peeler is! It's easy to hold, easy to use. However, it has been only 6 months and it rusted. Not sure what we could have done differently? We never let it sit dirty or wet. We always stay caught up with our dishes so not sure why it rusted so fast? I do love it so I might repurchase and try again.
