Amazon.com Review: This fruit slicer cores and slices apples and pears into appealing wedges in just seconds. The simple gadget also greatly reduces the amount of time it takes to prepare fruits for pies or tarts, and is much easier to use than some of the more gimmicky coring/slicing contraptions out there. Equipped with a sharp stainless-steel cutting blade, the slicer fits over any apple with less than a 4-1/4-inch diameter and divides it into eight sections while simultaneously separating out the core. The slicer requires only one swift push downward to execute and a soft-grip rubber handles ensure that the slicer won’t slip out of hands. The slicer has a durable plastic body that won’t show stains, and is safe for cleaning in the dishwasher. KitchenAid offers a hassle-free replacement warranty on this slicer during the first year of ownership and a lifetime limited warranty on it thereafter. --Cristina Vaamonde

Easy to use, although needs a little strength. My wife cannot slice apples with this.
Rating: - very good!!!!
This is a very good slicer, helps when you are dealing with lots of apples, like making applesauce, this was the first thing that I used it for, or making a pie, and is very good too when you are just getting one apple for eating, the core almost always came out in one piece, and makes very nice slices too!

It would be nice if it didn't get so much apple stuck in the cracks, but it can handle large apples, it's comfortable to use, and it saves a lot of time when making apple pie.

I use to hate having to cut up apples for my 6 year old now it's a breeze. My mom bought one from a different manufactor and it can't handle larger apples. This one is the perfect size and cleans up easily in the dishwasher.

I bought this as a gift for my father, after I discovered it to be so useful. Since he eats apples everyday, my dad has found it to be one of his favorite kitchen tools and one of the best gifts he's ever received.
