Fox Run Apple Peeling Machine with Clamp-On Base Review

Fox Run Apple Peeling Machine with Clamp-On Base
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a neat little slicer/peeler that worked once. I washed it and then the cheap stamped parts stripped their threads out so i could not re use it. I have machine and casting knowledge and can tell you that this is as cheap as it gets. Castings are porus and weak. Paint is thin and cheap. Stamped parts are barely threaded, maybe 2 turns holding, and fitted with sloppy fitting bolts. You might be able to peel a bag of potatoes or apples if your lucky. Can be fixed with parts that i found at a hardware store and a little effort. Average consumer will probably just throw it away. I can't remember if it said dishwasher safe or not but it rusted badly when i tried it.

Victorio VKP1011 Apple and Potato Peeler, Clamp Base Review

I purchased this peeler because our church sells apple pies as a fund raiser. This is fast and easy to clean. With a bit of hand trimming of the top and bottom core area, you are done. It slices the apples, cores them, and the peels can be recycled if you have animals that enjoy scrapes. I like the clap style, I place it on a board then put the bushel of apples on top of the board.

Love apples or potatoes but don't really care for the peel? The Victorio apple and potato peeler is here to help. For apples it can quickly peel, core and slice with a few turns of the handle. Just remove the coring blade and peeling potatoes is a snap. Plan on using it a lot? Don't worry, the unit is sturdy enamel-coated cast-iron and all the stainless steel blades are adjustable and replaceable. It will last for years even with heavy use. We are so sure we back it with a 5-year warranty. Clamp base will keep unit firmly in place on most countertops and tables. Also available in suction base model (VKP1010). For best results when potato peeling U.S. Number 1 grade potatoes are recommended.

we used a loaner....works great....peas have to be picked and wait until next day to shell...we used an electric drill(would work better with a hand mixer)set on a small table, used a tin square pan for peas to go in and a new paper as a shoot for the hulls to go down in a bucket....now we have ordered one of our own....oh and the peas have to be turned to enter the roller with end that has a little tab on it......(not where you break it off at vine.....hope this helps..we saved a bundle of time with the sheller and no dirty fingers....jh

Shell a bushel of peas in 30 minutes. The amazing Mr Pea Sheller does a great job with Black Eyed Peas, Purple Hulls, Cream Beans etc. It will also shell Butter Beans when they are in the fresh ripe green stage. The upper shaft easily adapts to a hand mixer to make the job even faster!! (see larger picture)

Victorio VKP1010 Apple and Potato Peeler, Suction Base Review

Victorio VKP1010 Apple and Potato Peeler, Suction Base
Average Reviews:

This item peels apples amazingly fast, as fast as you can turn the handle.
It makes the job of peeling and slicing the apples the shortest part of the job when preparing apple desserts.
Really worth the money spent, in saved time and frustration.
It will peel, core and slice an apple as fast as you can turn the handle, about 30 seconds per apple.
You'll probably peel more apples then you need, just because it's neat to watch it work.
Minus: You have to hold the cutter back until it gets started on BIG apples (or LARGE potatoes).
You need a smooth non porious surface to attach it too or it requires two hands to use it.

Progressive International Pineapple Corer Review

Progressive International Pineapple Corer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I slice quite a bit of pineapple and was looking for a helpful tool. This didn't work. The metal blade is too flimsy for the heavy duty job of slicing through pineapple. With quite a bit of pressure and elbow grease, it barely cut through. You have to cut the pineapple manually to almost a perfect "square" before even using the tool, quite a bit of wasted fruit. The core section usually yields core in your final slice and cuts away good fruit. Messy and time consuming. Extremely dissapointing. Not even worth committing precious drawer space for. I've now since seen it at my local grocery store and Target.

Progressive International Egg Slicer Review

Progressive International Egg Slicer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wrote a good review first because of the versatility of this slicer but after using it for a couple of months it started falling apart on me. Two wires have already broken and others are sagging like they are ready to break. I don't use this slicer very much and I only use it on eggs that's why I can't believe it's doing this. I feel the concept is great but the quality really lacks on this slicer that is why the 2 stars.
update: About all of the wires are broken on this, it's now completely useless, I might of got a bad one but I don't think so it looks like all of the wires were rusted where they are connected to the sides like some of the water didn't drain off so they rusted through. Well it's time to look for a new slicer. Oh and I took it down one star since it is basically a doorstop now.

Progressive International Avocado Slicer Review

Progressive International Avocado Slicer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am an avacado fan. So, when I came across this tool, I thought, "aha... something to save me time in the kitchen". Well, that's only partially true.
If I have an avacado the same width as the avacado slicer, then all is right with the world. A simple motion of pressing into the avacado half and pulling towards me, and I end up with evenly spaced slices. What could be simpler or quicker!
Alas, there is a downside. If your avacado is smaller in width than the slicer, your in for a messy situation. The slicer no longer slides through the avacado, it gets caught on the tough skin (it is wider than the avacado in this situation) and the once even slices are now mashed and part of the avacado peel sticks to the slicer. I spent more time cleaning up after the slicer and my slices were no longer uniform. In this case, I would have been better off using my knife.

CUTTING-4.5 stars; SUCTION BASE-5(i like the mechanical suction base it has better than the ones with suction cups);

overall very happy:)

Progressive International GMMC-68 Microwavable S'Mores Maker Review

Progressive International GMMC-68 Microwavable S'Mores Maker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered this for my three kids. We love roasting smores on a campfire but do not get to do that too often. When I saw the low Amazon price, I had my doubts. I was still so excited to try this out. It came in and the kids and I tried it for dessert. It was just as easy as promised. It took only 30 seconds to cook the marshmallows evenly and perfectly. The chocolate doesn't really start melting until you take it out of the microwave which is good. It is less messy that way.
I could not recommend this enough. We use ours very regularly. I have already bought three more as Christmas gifts. Wonderful, simple, inexpensive. What more could you ask for? Go get your own!!

Enjoy delicious s'mores indoors with this easy-to-use contraption--no need to wait until summertime camping trips or gathering with friends around a bonfire at the beach. The nostalgia created with these sweet treats can now be savored any time of year and from the convenience of home. Simply fill the reservoir with water, assemble one or two s'mores on the tray by stacking a piece of chocolate and a marshmallow in between two graham-cracker squares, lower the arms to hold in place, and microwave for up to 30 seconds. The heated water allows the graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate to heat evenly, while the arms prevent the marshmallows from over expanding and overcooking, giving the chocolate time to melt. Be careful when removing the s'more maker from the microwave as the water is hot and can spill. The innovative unit creates consistently perfect s'mores--crisp graham crackers neatly holding together soft marshmallow and melted chocolate. A fun addition to sleep overs or birthday parties, the s'more maker measures approximately 7-1/2 by 6-1/2 by 4 inches and cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher.

This rapidly became my favorite specialty kitchen gadget! It slices an entire banana in just seconds, without getting banana goo on your fingers, and makes perfectly even slices. They're great for cereal, fruit salad, a quick snack, or throwing into the freezer for smoothies. It's large enough to accomodate any banana, it's easy to clean and stores neatly behind our banana hanger. Our household always has bananas many usually went to waste on a weekly basis -- but with this fun slicer we've dramatically increased our banana utilization.
