Fox Run 5584 Peeler/Bean Slicer, Clear

Peeler broke off the handle not even 6 months after purchase. Dollar store crap

Good peeler,feels a good quality item.

These are the only peelers that my daughter and I use. They are easy to hold and do a good job. I can't comment about the bean slicer part because I've never used it - I like the balance that it gives to the handle.

I have a metal peeler/bean slicer of my Mom's which I used as a little girl to french style string beans for a recipe. I have used it until now. Unfortunately, one of the blades fell out, rendering it unable to do the job I needed. I purchased this peeler/bean slicer for myself and my daughter. I am very disappointed in its performance as a bean slicer. You have to push very hard to get the bean through. Even when it's halfway you are supposed to be able to pull it through the other side, completing to slice the bean for a recipe that calls for French-style string beans. When you attempt to pull it through the string bean breaks in half, I don't use it as a peeler, because I have a perfectly functioning peeler that I use. I purchased this product as a bean slicer only. I am very sorry I did. I did think the one I got for my daughter was dull and that's why it was happening, but mine did the same thing. It is a terrible product. Do not buy.

Like everyone that I know ... we all hold the peeler with our right hand and peel towards the body while holding the food item in our left hand. This peeler won't work that way ... dull as heck. It is made for people that do the opposite of everything I said ... people who are left handed. Using the peeler with the right hand and peeling away from the body makes a lot of mess and have had the blades cut my knuckles. What happened to peelers that were sharp on both inner blades so that both right and left handed people could use them? Also ... the grip is steel but the peeler blade is thin metal and reminds me of tin cans.
