Cuts, Dices And Shreds Other Fresh Produce, Too! December 19, 2009 NE1 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Progressive International Deluxe Potato Cutter
I have used this handy kitchen tool several times per week for nearly a year now. I love this thing!
I have shredded cabbage with it, diced onions, cubed potatoes, sweet potatoes, eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash; cut peppers, cucumbers, carrots and more. The secret to success is to only use firm, FRESH produce. If your produce is starting to get a little soft or rubbery, you'll be better off reaching for a knife instead.
So, when you first get that sack of potatoes, pull this puppy out to cut and freeze your own french fries! I toss them into ice water immediately after cutting, then double ziploc bag handfuls of them and freeze.
To dice or cube, make the first regular cut, then take those, rotate 90 degrees, reinsert and cut again. Safe, effortless, quick and easy meal prep for the home cook at a reasonable cost.
The unit sits comfortably and solidly on the counter with the base rubber grip. The stainless steel construction is not industrial strength, but not flimsy either, and is adequate for its purpose. Highly recommend.
So easy my 2 year old can use it March 13, 2009 N. Niesen (Minneapolis, MN USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm not kidding. My 25 month-old can run medium (3.5" long) potato's through the large blade without help.
Potato's up to 4.5" long can fit in it. The suction mount is very secure.
Works Well So Far May 14, 2009 David Merritt (Abilene, TX USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the first product like this that I have ever owned, so I can't compare it to any other potato cutters. I can't testify to it's durability, as I have only owned this product for a couple of weeks, but I haven't had a problem with it yet. It works as expected. Much easier and faster than cutting the potato sticks with a knife. I'm sure we will make baked french fries much more often than before I purchased this product. I just don't have much room for kitchen gadgets, but that's my problem. Over all, it's been a good purchase so far.
great home unit 4 the price January 12, 2009 Jrod76 (Milan, IL) 16 out of 17 found this review helpful
CUTTING-4.5 stars; SUCTION BASE-5(i like the mechanical suction base it has better than the ones with suction cups);
CONSTRUCTION-(only used three times so far, seems a little flimsy, but then again its not a $100+ industrial one) sooo-4 stars; and it easy to interchange the cutting sizes.
overall very happy:)
This is my 2nd time back...having problems w/ blades..blades keep falling out of blade unit..now I give it 2 stars
Better than most January 15, 2009 Jason S. Miller 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This cutter is better than most I tried, the stainless still is very strong, however the screws in the middle of the bed where you sit the potato actually aren't stainless steal and due rust. And apparently it cuts better if you put the blade in, in the right direction, even though either direction works and there are no clear markings for which way to insert the blade. The suction cup part, making it to still to the counter is very helpful though, making the cutter fuction better over all.
