Too bad I can't give this one 10 stars! However, here's a tip on how to use it: Since many apples don't sit vertically, with the core at right angles to your cut surface, start with the knife at the center of the stem and hold the apple vertically, as it were (using just enough force when using the slicer). to gently hold the apple), then PRESS the cutter down in one quick motion, but try to get it to STOP. Cut about 75% of the way - THEN insert the base jig into the base and remember to line up the arrows - then take ONE MORE PUNCH down - and you're done! I don't know why I found this just now, but I saw a crazy Russian hacker with a very similar one. This is NOT the one he showed but I like this one MORE because the arrows help a lot! $10 might seem like a lot when you already have FOUR apple slicers when you look around - but you'll quickly reject every other apple slicer you have once you learn how to use this thing with crooked apples. My wife makes me cut her apples, but that's due to an over-mechanical tendency. It's my life. I hope this tip helps you love this slicer as much as we do!
