Corer, Slicer, Pie Maker, Stainless Steel Blades, Red VKP1010

The suction cup does not move until you release it! The peel is perfection-thin enough to remove the peel, but does not sacrifice the flesh of the apple. The spiral slicer and corer is efficient and makes preparing apples for my granddaughter fun and simple! In fact, I am FaceTimed often to peel an apple for her viewing pleasure! She loves the peeled apples you can purchase and this does the trick, quickly, easily and safely!I used home grown apples that were small, bumpy and ugly! Johnny Apple’s removal of the skin made these ugly ducklings into beautiful swans!User error resulted in a misaligned core and I accidentally bumped corer once which stopped my process until I figured it out!I peeled, cored and sliced enough small (plum sized) apples in 30 minutes which made almost a gallon of apple butter. (It was a lot of apples!)I plan to try potatoes next. I have an electric peeler which had very little success with anything.I did not buy the unbranded intentionally because of the big job ahead of me. I’m glad I spent more money on the real thing.The Johnny Apple Peeler is a sturdy, easy to use kitchen tool that I did not realize how much I needed!I plan to buy another one as a gift for a very special granddaughter and her family!

Wow what a surprise, came quickly and well packaged. Easy to use and well made. It's a solid machine. No cheap parts. Easy to clean but the best part is how well it peels. I peeled six apples and one potato in about 2 minutes. (there was a little bit of a learning curve) It comes with the slicer in place. So, I got my first apple sliced and peeled, the core came right out. This will be nice for potatoes casseroles. After removing the slicer, I was able to peel the apples very quickly. It works so fast and well on potatoes. WOW how did I survive without this machine. The peel can be thicker for curly fries or shoestring zucchini. Would make a great gift for a baker in your family.

Does an outstanding job peeling, slicing and coring. I was a little unsure about the suction mount but very glad I selected this option. The suction mount holds onto my granite counter as if it was bolted down - but also very easy to release. The peeler cleans up easy. It is simple to use and makes fast work of a bag of apples.

The title summarizes it all! Background: my old cast iron P'Chef clamp-base peeler/corer/slicer (PCS) finally bit after probably 15 years of good service, including several group camping trips where it got abused unintentionally. It had a broken tine, and the knives had gotten dull - it no longer peeled even the firmest apples. I wanted to replace it with one which had a suction cup base, and started reading reviews. A reviewer of a different PCS made of aluminum returned hers because it was too lightweight to get the job done right and suggested other buyers seek a cast iron one. After visiting a brick & mortar store where I could pick up and hold an aluminum one and feeling how flimsy it was, I followed the reviewer's tip and found this Victorio cast iron PCS here at Amazon. I'm extremely happy with it!Good pictoral of the various parts in the instructions. Some assembly required with the fork, handle. No problem - I didn't need the instructions for that, but they are included for anyone who's never owned a PCS before.Adjustments for the various knives (peeling blade, coring/slicing blade) were very clear and gave me more knowledge about the product than I ever had with my old PCS. I had to align the coring/slicing blade and did so without any issues. I initially had the peeling blade set too wide, and it took off more peel than I'd anticipated, but a minor adjustment got it to where it needed to be.Though the peeling arm clearance was factory set, I adjusted it after measuring the distance between the peeling blade and the fork, thinking it was too wide. Turns out, I should have left it as it came! Again, minor adjustment got it back to where it needed to be.The suction cup works as advertised, and I'm very pleased with it. I never had used my old clamp-based PCS where there were compatible counters - I ALWAYS needed the base, and it ALWAYS moved around while operating it. With the Victorio, the sucker stays put when putting the PCS through its paces. No problem on smooth counters - I'm using mine on a laminated counter, so you should be good to go even if you don't have granite or Corianne. In fact, the sucker sticks to the tempered glass (ie. slightly textured) cutting board I often use on the kitchen island, as well as my polyethylene cutting board I use at other times. Won't stick to my wood board, but neither will suction darts from a dart toy!My main use for this gadget is apples. Granny smith and ambrosia have been successful. Looking forward to trying Fujis, a variety which I was once able to use on my old PCS before it started wearing out. I've not tried potatoes (then again, I never used my old one for potatoes either), but given the quality, this is probably something I'll do. Got a recipe I've been wanting to try. I believe the slices are thicker that what I've grown accustomed to with my old one, but I consider that a difference rather than a drawback.Other positives: 5 year warranty, and replacements for the fork (in case overzealous campers manage to break a tine again), peeler blade, corer/slicer blade, handle, spring, and wing nuts. They're available from the manufacturer's website. I'd definitely recommend the Victorio suction base peeler corer slicer!
