Review on Zyliss Smoothglide Potato and Vegetable Swivel Peeler - White/Gray by Marie Jensen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The old design is much better

The Zyliss Smoothglide cleaning line is my absolute favorite. This is my top choice as the blade cleans fine without removing too much pulp from the product being cleaned. When this new model came out with a white handle, I had doubts about the shape and color of the handle, but the blade was dull in the old version. Since the old model with the green handle was overpriced, I took the risk and ordered this newer model. First, my instincts about the shape of the grip were correct. The square handle isn't as comfortable as the curved, rounded old model. Second, even after thorough hand washing with soap and water, the new white color fades much more easily than the old green color. Although the blade of the newer model still peels thinly, the skin somehow gets stuck in the groove of the blade. The design of the blade may have changed slightly, but this is not immediately apparent upon inspection. I will not buy this model again and hope Zyliss finds a better replacement.

Pros
  • The wide range
Cons
  • is confusing
