- Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2025I bought this as I have a bad back and I have a hard time standing to peel by hand. I bought this after researching a few others. This peeler is wonderful. It is super easy to use and does a great job. After putting the potato on the base and lowering the holding spike you just adjust the cutter arm to the top of the potato and hit the red button and everything is automatic and peels fadt. Remove potato and trim the polar caps and you are ready for cooking. While the blade peels it comes out in a long continuous strip you can catch in your hand to throw away. There is do much less potato wastage than peeling by hand. No accidents with your hands or fingers. The price is great and the quality is good. You can run it either by electricity or 8 AA batteries and it also comes with 2 spare cutting blades that are inside the units base. You have got to try this Sure is a time saver and you do not even need to pre wash the potatoes
- Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2025Even though it is made with a relatively cheap plastic, it works just fine. It is very easy to use and peeled the potatoes quickly. It will be a real time saver especially at holiday time.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2024I purchased my peeler about 2 years ago and until then I had always peeled potatoes with a knife or a manual peeler, so when I saw this electric peeler, I was intrigued, as peeling potatoes is not my favorite job! I knew if this worked I would be happy. Some of these peelers can get really expensive but for $20 I was willing to gamble. When it arrived I was excited to give it a try and took it out of the box and plugged it in. No setup required, it's ready to go right out of the box and it comes with an extra blade, which is a little tricky to replace so be sure to make a mental note of how it comes off. I secured my potato on the bottom and brought the top of the peeler down. pierced the top of the potato, moved the blade up to the top of the potato, pressed the button and within seconds the potato was peeled! It does leave a dime size place unpeeled on top and about a quarter size place on the bottom where the potato is secured to the device but a couple of swipes from a blade takes care of that. It peels all shapes and sizes unless the potato is too large to fit in the machine. Of course, the bad places might need some extra attention and it is a little loud and screeches slightly but all in all, this is a fabulous little machine and if something happened to mine I would immediately order another one!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2025I wasn't sure this would be worth the effort but it's actually pretty handy! It peels very quickly and I like the fact that it comes with extra blades. I love kitchen gadgets and this was a great addition to my collection. Good price, too!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2025The media could not be loaded.
It’s kind of mesmerizing to watch it work, too. Just pop the lemon on, hit the button, and it does all the work in seconds. No more hand-cramping peeling sessions or worrying about wasting too much of the zest. It’s quick, clean, and oddly satisfying to use.
If you make limoncello or need to peel a lot of citrus for cooking or baking, this is 100% worth having around. We didn’t expect to love it this much, but now it’s one of our favorite kitchen tools.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2025I have to be honest this product actually works quite well it does however peel groves (deep peel) which is okay I have played with it testing it on lemons and apples and potatoes I say you can't lose when buying this product
- Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2025I will never peel a potato by hand again, this gadget is fantastic!! Easy to use and so so time saving!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2020I make a lot of apple desserts and I make potatoes every day. Every potato for every dish MUST be peeled and I hate peeling things. This thing is very light weight and seems fragile but has worked well so far. One terrifying moment happened when I grabbed it out of the cupboard and plugged it in still holding it and the red button had been in the on switch and it started running and nearly got my finger. Don't be in a hurry or lazy- get it out, set it up on the counter, and with hands OFF plug it in. Everything but the blade is plastic but the spikes work well, there's a fine line between being significantly on, not on enough, and dangerous to the fruit or tuber if not on enough.
When you're doing one potato or one apple, it's a novelty. When you are doing a bunch, it's annoying. To adjust the death spike from above you have to reach around the back (and not in a lefty-inclined way) to pinch things together to raise it up, you have to then use both hands separately to then swing/move and raise the blade. It is not a smooth/effortless/mindless activity over and over again.
How it functions: It typically (on a potato) misses the very top in such a way that a single scoop and pass with a peeler will take care of it. It feels like you're setting up an old record player needle, and it makes a sickening/startling click when it finally engages when you don't do it right (always). On smaller potatoes it seems to slow at the waist or 3/4 to the bottom and it takes a little more then it needs to. Once the potato width is narrowing to the bottom, the blades says "yeah, I'm outta here" and slips off sneakily but keeps descended to trick you and then stops and then you see that you have to make a few passes with the peeler anyway.
You're also responsible for any eyes/knots.
With apples it performs even worse, it skips the whole top, jumps around when trying to get started, does one ring around, skips a few strips, does the side, then when it gets near the bottom "keeps going" without cutting.
Will I still use it?
Yes. There is still noticeably less waste. I peeled 5 lbs of red potatoes by hand, and made the machine do 5 lbs of red (and I finished the edges etc). Then I weighed the refuse before I dumped it in the compost (by that I mean the wooded bank where I grow some peppers and potatoes. The hand-peeled pile weighed almost half as much.
It saves time in the end but it's the opposite of a hands off procedure so there's very little you can accomplish other than just standing there feeding and removing. It's not a kitchenaid mixer where you can run the gauntlet and go outside for a few minutes (though I usually end up hearing the crazy splashing of the butter finally forming and having to run back in out of breath).
Because it was inexpensive and because I used amazon reward points for it, it's staying in my kitchen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best kitchen gadget ever
I bought my first rotato peeler on Amazon.com and had it shipped over as I hate peeling potatoes. It is now available on Amazon.co.uk and I bought another for my sister. It is brilliant, easy to use and does the job in half the time. Notc restricted to potatoes, you can feel fruit too. Clean, un messy and then easy to keep clean. Comes with several more blades which I think extends the product life to a good twenty years.

5.0 out of 5 stars It really works
I admit to being skeptical, I'm not much for gadgets, but we used this yesterday and it's impressive. Only potatoes so far but it did an excellent job of them and it's fast. The peel ends up in a nice neat coil on the counter very easy to clean up. And it's fun to watch. Seems well made and well worth the 20 bucks I paid for it. Get one, you'll like it. 100% recommend
