Spiralizer 7-Blade Vegetable Slicer, Strongest-and-Heaviest Spiral Slicer, Best Veggie Pasta Spaghetti Maker for Keto/Paleo/Non-Gluten, Comes with 4 Recipe Ebooks

This thing is AMAZING. Totally, completely, wonderfully amazing! I was hopeful with all of the glowing reviews, but I still had to try it for myself. I am so so SO glad we made this purchase. It would be a great purchase for double the $29.99 price tag. I play to buy a few more as gifts! Using this thing is super easy. There are only a few removable parts (the blades and the handle). You choose your blade, choose your fruit or veggie, slice off the ends and start cranking - that's it! There's a very user friendly booklet that comes with this and shows you which blade to use for which noodle/slice you want. It has easy to follow pictures. Clean up is easy. Remove the blade you used and hand wash. Wipe down the rest of the unit. That's it! It also stores easily in the box it came in. There is a small amount of food waste with this, but very small. The center core of whatever food you're using is left whole and intact. I added a picture of what's leftover on a large sweet potato. Cranking the food takes minimal effort. You do need to be able to turn the crank against a small amount of resistance, but that's all. Might be problematic if you had wrist problems or tennis elbow, but otherwise I think almost anyone could do it. The EBook that was supposed to come with this never downloaded properly for me. Not a big deal...I can browse the internet for recipes. Worth noting. Also the peeler that comes with this doesn't come in the same package. You have to provide feedback to the company, then they send you one. When I contacted them they were very helpful and friendly. I have not yet tried the peeler. This thing is a wonderful tool for healthy eating. My kids love snacking on spiralized apples. We've done sweet potatoes several times already and incorporated them in everything from burritos to stir fry. This is so cost effective - if you buy pre-spiralized sweet potatoes in the store, you'll get about 5 potatoes worth for $30. Or you could buy this machine!!!!

I wasn't expecting this to be as nice as a spiralizer as it is for the price. I made several different kinds of raw pasta with it with daikon radish and zucchini that turned out great. It is very easy to use and clean. You do have to push down a few times to get it to stick well to the counter, but other than that it works just wonderfully for making raw pasta. I am trying to eat more raw because I know how amazing it is for your health and how great it makes me feel. I made a fabulous raw pad thai recipe and a few days later I made spaghetti with tomato sauce with it. If you are making raw pasta it is suggested by many recipes online that you spiralize the pasta and then place it over paper towels and salt it some to help get rid of the excess moisture so your pasta does not come out too watery when you mix it with the sauce. This works very well. I am excited to eat much healthier (raw) but still enjoy a lot of the old pasta dishes I love. Daikon radish, if you have not tried it works extremely well spiralized and has a very subtle flavor that can be used in place of any white or brown pasta. I love that this spiralizer come with so many different grates to make different widths of noodles. Very nice product.

I was deciding between the Spiralizer brand and the Paderno brand. Based on the slightly higher reviews, I went with the Spiralizer. Have used it regularly since purchasing and have joined the Zoodle converts. It works fast and they look picture-perfect. The whole apparatus is very light--which is certainly better than heavy--and a cinch to clean. IF you secure the suction cups, it's effortless to use and works like a charm in literally less than a minute (for one large zucchini). I was going to recommend that they add a holder for all of the finished product. However, I decided that I actually like having one less part to store away and since it would likely be plastic, I definitely prefer to use my own ceramic, glass or another non-reactive container. However, the following two factors kept me from giving 5-stars: (NOTE to Amazon: you need to create 1/2 stars in your rating rubric.) 1. The suction cups on the bottom aren't the best solution to keeping it in place. (And woe to the user who doesn't READ the instructions. Of course, that's on the user, but you'll find it near impossible to use if you miss this key step.) I think silicone or rubber grommets should be product tested as a better option. 2. I'd like to see a stainless steel model for the plastic teeth that go into the produce. Not only is this better than the HUNDREDS of chemicals that leach from plastic (no, it's not just BPA, PVC, and phthalates), but I'm guessing it would make for a stronger grip on more dense food like sweet potatoes, beets, and other root vegetables. To be balanced, MOST brands out here use plastic because it keeps the price down. However, I'm willing to pay a little more for the durability, utility and reduced toxicity of food-grade, 18/10 stainless steel.

I just got this and so far we love it! The SO just quit smokeing and has put on some weight. He wants to drop the pounds and is finding it hard to cut the carbs. He discovered the spiral veggies in the store but didn't love the price tag. We decided to get a spiralizer of our own. First day it arrived he was enchanted with it. We have used it every night since! This is going to introduce a lot of veggies into our lives. The unit couldn't be easier to use. It does stick well to our counter top. Three of the five blades store right in the unit. The other two we have left in the packaging . Cleaning is super easy. Right after we use it a quick rince and wipe and the unit is clean. I imagine if you were to leave the veggie scraps in the blades it would be a bit tricky to clean but cleaning as we go it is extremely easy! I look forward to using this on lots of veggies. First veggie to go was Zukini. We used the middle size blade and got spirals I would call more like fettachini noodles. Really good, we sautéed them with olive oil and sault and pepper, served them next to a grilled porkchop. Spiralized the broccoli stem last night and the spirals were great in my opinion. I used the small blade that made like angel hair pasta and they turned into little crunchies in the oven! They were really nutty tasteing and I loved them! I think they would be verry good as a Salad topping, but I ate them all! I saw a recipe for chicken zoodle soup. I tried it just like it said. Don't put the zoodles in the soup to cook, just make the soup (less the noodles), and poor the hot soup over the raw zoodles and let the hot soup cook/soften the zoodles. Yummm! I also did the same with the cold soup and tossed the zoodles in and microwaved it . The zoodles were perfect when the soup was hot. I love chicken noodle soup and this is going to be a staple at home. Can't wait to see the next veggie up for dinner! I even love the "off fall" that little core that is a result of spiralizing. That little jem is just as tasty as the veggie it came from! No reason to toss it IMO. Just eat it! Pretty cool kitchen gadget and glad I have one!

Holy cow! This machine is fricken awesome!!! I got an email from the company (through Amazon) before it even hit my door step, welcoming me to the Spiralizer family and providing some kick-start recipes, which I thought was amazing! I took a trip to the grocery store, knowing that I would want to throw as much at this machine as I could to see how it REALLY handled things, so I picked up zucchini, carrots, onions, and sweet potatoes. Because I am not a normal typical reader of instructions, I just cut the top and bottom of a carrot off and stuck it on the machine. NOTE! This is not how it's supposed to be done, but I did it that way, and I came out with some cute little carrot half curls. Frustrating a little, but still, cute enough to keep me going. - - For the record, you cut the carrot in half. Lesson learned. I'll try that next time. I then cut the top and bottom of a zucchini off and stuck it on the machine. Same awkwardness as I experienced with the carrot - again because I didn't cut it in half and it had the typical weird angle going on. After I got through the smaller bit of zucchini, the larger bit went through like a champ with the long strands I was hoping for! I then changed blades and did the straight blade and it was perfect! What a great way to make food fun!! I thought I was done after those - but later I went and peeled a sweet potato and made sweet potato "pasta" and then an onion, because, well, why not! Both went through seamlessly! After I peeled the sweet potato, I DID cut it in half (and a small bit of the pointy end off - you won't be successful at spiralizing it if you don't do that...lesson learned), and it went through the machine without a hitch!!! I haven't tried the noodles, but I was more doing this so that I can test the actual machine. The onion - cut off the top and bottom and peeled off the first layer of onion paper and it went through the machine (small noodle blade) like a boss as well! From the customer service to the machine working well, I'm totally sold on this product! The fact that it also comes with a lifetime guarantee is just another bonus.

So I just thought I was too lazy to cut my veggies nicely. I thought since the julienned & nice veges at the supermarket were too expensive that I'd just have to buy my veggies regular and I'd have to do without certain nice things in my life. Maybe had I become a chef, then my veggies would be a nice texture, but no. I splurged and bought this. Why? Because I'm tired of going to Chinese restaurants all the time just so I can have Veggie Spring rolls. I found the veggie spring roll wrapper at World Market, now it was about getting those veggies with the correct texture. I straight put cabbage in my spiralizer and it spiraled it. SO FAST. SO EASY. SO SAFELY. and boom. In mere seconds/minutes, one of those two.. I had myself ALL my finely chopped veggies. And if anything was too long after going through the spiralizer, it was a super fast chop on the cutting board, nothing complicated and boom. The spiralizer had already made everything perfectly thin and sublime. I feel like, having this tool made me and insta chef. Like now I can have fancy food. I spiralized potatoes that needed chopping, but I was too lazy to chop up to make anything out of. But no. I spiralized those potatoes and baked them in the oven with olive oil, salt and pepper & garlic salt at 450 degrees for 30 minutes, tossing every ten min.. and boom. Tasty thin nice potatoes with some crunch on the edges.. it came out so flavorful, kind of like hash but nicer.. like chips... they were "buttery" tender.. you could just as easily fry them to make chips, or pan fry, whatever.. I will never go back. This changed my life. As I spiralized, I looked towards Heaven and thanked my God for blessing the world with this tool. And I felt pity and sadness for the generations prior to this tool's existence. "Shame they didn't have this, those poor people" and I almost cried for them. Then I smiled and shook my head with joy that I got to use this product and was so grateful. I thought, so this is what it might feel like to win the lotto.. a deep thankfulness. That's how it feels to buy and use this tool.

I first thought of buying some sort of spiralizing apparatus because my sister has one and uses it a lot as part of a paleo diet. I've been looking for ways to get more vegetables into our family's diet, and since I'm gluten free, I sometimes miss eating pasta. I looked up many brands and styles, and found far too many critical reviews, so I was starting to think I might never find one of good quality. Eventually, I found this Spiralizer slicer, and decided to take the plunge -- and I'm so glad I did! It arrived quickly and in good shape and I put it to use right away, making zucchini "pasta". It seems very solidly made -- the body is entirely of plastic (all except the very sharp blades and the screws holding the suction cups), but quite heavy duty, and I like that there are not a lot of metal parts to rust. It is incredibly easy to use, and it's fun to experiment with the three different blades, each of which creates a different shape and thickness of spiralized veggie. It was also super easy to clean afterwards -- just a quick rinse in soapy water. The company sent two sets of great recipes for it, too, and the ones I've tried have been delicious. The only minor issue was that it arrived with one of the little suction cups torn off, but it also came with four extra suction cups, so no problem! It seems they've really thought this thing through. For full disclosure, I should say that the machine arrived with a note saying that if I called them with my comments, they would send me another Sprializer free of charge! When I called, they were very nice and personal (this was on a weekend!), and they asked if I would be willing to post a review, but are sending me the second Spiralizer regardless of whether I do so. (It should be arriving next week, and I plan to give it as a gift.) I was already planning on posting a positive review, since I'm extremely happy with my Spiralizer, so the extra one is just a very nice bonus. I haven't had the Spiralizer for long, so can't attest to its long term durability, but so far it seems great, and it even comes with a lifetime warranty. Judging by how responsive the company has been so far, I expect that I would have no trouble replacing the Spiralizer if anything should go wrong with it. A lifetime warranty seems like they really stand behind their product. All in all, I'm thrilled with my Spiralizer, and am happy to be incorporating more veggies into our diet.

Please see comment left by RWM on this review. Apparently Bitoni has been creating multiple shill accounts in order to downvote reviews that are less than 5 stars. This actually explains a lot. Shill accounts are so sketchy/shady/bad business, and based on this practice, I can't recommend supporting a business that does this. However, this review is solely for the product, and as such, I will leave it as-is (although Bitoni seriously deserves a 1 star as a company). RWM has also left a bit more information on other similar, if not identical, products for those who are interested in purchasing a spiralizer like this from another company in the comments below. Please take a look for his/her thorough review for multiple spiralizer reviews. ----- I primarily purchased this to spiralize cucumbers and zucchini to make noodles. I bought this because this was cheaper than Paderno's at the time of purchase. The promise of being 30% heavier than the competitor's was also alluring even if I couldn't personally verify it. For the record, I weighed this gadget on my digital kitchen scale, and it clocked in at 1 lb 6 7/8 oz. with the noodle blade. First things first: The initial pictures of this unit were green. Amazon or the seller has since changed the picture. Mine arrived white, but this isn't a problem for me. The one I got looks exactly like a Paderno or this one here, which at the time, was 22% less: http://www.amazon.com/Essential-Spiralizer-Tri-Blade-Spiral-Vegetable/dp/B006THC75E/. Overall, I'm relatively content with this device, but there are a few significant things that I feel are worth mentioning: 1. When I rotate the handle and the veggie is going through the blade, the center of the core (where it goes through the corer) is rarely straight. This is very annoying especially if you're trying to remove as much of the core as possible, especially with cucumbers, without cutting into the flesh. To combat this, I usually slice the veggie in half so that there's less distance for the vegetable to travel to the blade, eliminating frequent adjusting. 2. Nicks in the blade. My favorite attachment is the noodle, and it's the one I use the most frequently. After using this attachment a couple of times, I noticed some small nicks in the large blade. I carefully handwash all parts of this kitchen gadget and spiralize cucumbers and squashes, so it was disappointing. I am hoping that there will be no more chips. 3. The suction cups are useless. They do not stick to granite or glass. I've tried to smoosh it down, use water to increase suction, and nothing. I have to hold it down by hand when spiralizing. This device is also pretty light, so if it's 30% heavier than Paderno, I can't even imagine how light the Paderno one is... (Note: this isn't a "ding" on the product, but if you are looking to make noodles from harder root veggies like carrots, please get a julienne peeler.) However, on the plus side, this product is easy to use, easy to take apart, and most importantly, easy to clean. When I use my spiralizer despite its flaws, I notice a significant uptake in my intake of veggies, and they're a lot more enjoyable to eat. ----- Noodle tip - When I spiralize cucumbers and squashes, I always salt them and wring out the excess water. This removes a lot of the water from the vegetable, so that when you use it in dishes, it doesn't end up soupy. I noticed that my noodles end up with a nice bite/crunch to them when I cook with them: no blanching necessary.
