FAQs

Is this peeler safe for left-handed people?

Yes, the swivel head is designed for both left- and right-handed use.

Can I put this in the dishwasher?

Yes, it is dishwasher safe, although hand washing helps preserve the blade sharpness for longer.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 5-year warranty period.

Can it peel hard vegetables like butternut squash?

Yes, the stainless steel blade is robust enough to handle most common hard vegetables.

How do I store the peeler if I do not have a hook?

You can store it in a standard kitchen utensil drawer, ideally in a position where the blade is not pressing against other sharp metal objects.

Troubleshooting

Peeler is not gliding smoothly over produce

Check for food particles stuck under the swivel hinge and rinse under warm water to clear the mechanism.

Blade seems dull or skips

Ensure the produce is firm and dry. If peeling soft vegetables like tomatoes, apply very light pressure to avoid tearing the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This peeler requires no setup; it is ready to use immediately out of the packaging. It is compatible with a wide range of produce, including potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, and firm fruits like pears and apples.

To ensure longevity:

  • Cleaning: While it is dishwasher safe, hand-washing with warm soapy water and immediate drying is recommended to maintain the sharpness of the steel blade over time.
  • Storage: Utilize the hanging loop to keep the blade away from other utensils, which helps prevent dulling or accidental cuts when reaching into a drawer.
  • Maintenance: Check the hinge of the swivel head occasionally to ensure no food debris is trapped, ensuring the blade continues to move freely.
