Review on 🍴 Enhance your Kitchen Experience with the OXO Good Grips 2-Piece Peeler Set - Swivel and Julienne by Jack Enhanced

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Very sharp, cut a lot

These things are SHARP and will cut anything. Including human skin! I've cut myself so many times. I think cutting myself with a flat knife is my own problem, but a julienne knife is not safe at all, especially if you've never used one before. There was no indication or suggestion on the packaging about it, and I really did feel better. The cutter will glide normally, then get stuck and then fly. Even if it doesn't get stuck, it's difficult to hold the veg in place and apply the right amount of pressure to slice through the veg without cutting your hands through momentum or impulsiveness. Tools need the best cases when they're in the drawer (and they need to be colorful and opaque) and the best guide to avoid injury, and the julienne cutter needs the best protection to avoid cuts. I also wish the handles were smaller so I can better manipulate tools. Unless you julienne your veggies perfectly evenly with a julienne cutter, many of your pieces will probably only be about 1 inch long, unlike zoodles by zoodles. spiralizer. This is a limitation of this type of tool, not OXO's fault, but I mention it in case long parts are important to those unfamiliar with this type of tool. They are really well made and I expect them to last a long time. many, many years, as is usual with OXO. I only wish I hadn't cut myself so easily. These are four or five star tools if you know what you are doing or have a kevlar glove. not me lol

Pros
  • Household and kitchen
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
