Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

OH MY! I had to chuckle when I received a couple of follow up emails from Brian Davis, co-founder of Spring Chef asking me how I was ENJOYING my new swivel peeler. I suppose I was just taking it for granted that this was just another run of the mill peeler, a mere replacement for the dull ones sharing my cluttered utensil drawer, as I really don’t know how much you can ENJOY peeling vegetable’s (???). However, it did prompt me to take a more in-depth look into my new peeler as I thought I might be missing something very important. And turns out I was… First of all - When you hold this exquisite ribbed peeler in your hand you will find a perfect ergonomic synergy which enables you to effortlessly strip away any rough peel, even those pig-headed little eyes found in overgrown potatoes. In other words - hand and device become one. YEP! Be aware though that although the blue high quality plastic protective vinyl strip over the blade is attractive, it does need to be removed for the best results. It has also become invaluable for shredding carrots as I wanted them to be the perfect size and consistency for the 10 gallon vat of coleslaw I recently made for our local block party, celebrating our Neighbors release from Prison. Everybody was thrilled and commented how the carrots were picture-perfect and really jumped out from the cabbage. 😊 This wouldn’t have been possible with a grater or ordinary peeler . Although, I’m very happy…it has created a little marital discord around my home as I have to hide it from my normally quiet and well dispositioned Hubby. He's gotten very aggressive and fights with me as to who gets to peel the vegetables, but I’ve solved this by usually trying to make soup and stews when’s he’s not home. I also had to draw the line when I caught my cousin Ruby trying to use it to peel the skin off her rough heels. Now onto the quality and attractiveness of this fine apparatus. I realize it’s constructed of a superior quality GENUINE plastic material, but it sure could have fooled me as it reminded me of timeless Ebony. And not just your average Ebony, but that of the finest black hardwoods of India and Africa. The exquisite silver “Spring Chef” logo stands out and will remind you of a custom designed font from days gone by – almost Salvador Dali like with its surreal yet whimsical style and appearance. There's so much more I can say, but I think I've said enough (LOL). I do find it an injustice though to just hide this beautiful device in a kitchen drawer with menial and boring utensils. That’s why I had a custom stand made and I proudly display it with other collectibles in my home, as it’s become more of a piece of art to me... than a humble kitchen utensil. So, HAPPY PEELING and enjoy! PS: It really is a superior Peeler and although I'm just having a little fun here, I really do appreciate the great customer concern here from Sping Chef and will buy other products from them!
