OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer, White

After cutting my finger very badly (using an extremely sharp knife) whilst trying to de-stone an avocado and followed by a trip to A&E, the doctor recommended I purchase this kitchen implement. I wish I had purchased this item years ago. It's very SAFE and extremely easy to use, and it will not cut you. You can use it to half the fruit, de-stone it without touching the stone with your fingers and it will assist with the removal of the avocado flesh. There are other (cheaper) makes on the market, but OXO products are well made. You get what you pay for. Highly recommended product.

I've been really pleased with this. I found that the knife element took some getting used to just because it was a strange shape to hold, it did however cut through the skin perfectly every time. The stone remover is effective and simple to use. The only fault might be that I haven't been able to get the slices. I find it's more a combination of slices and mash. This is fine for what I want but may not be useful to all. I'm sure part of this depends on the ripeness of the fruit. I keep this at work so that I can have avocado prepared at my desk without any mess or hassle.

I have always used a knife to disect avocado but thought to give this kitchen tool a try-out as a safer method of cutting avocado. This kitchen implement achieved two out of the three aims of the slicer. Firstly, it sliced through the skin of the avocado perfectly with the plastic edged knife. Secondly, it removed the large stone with no fuss. However, I was not so successful with the third method of removing avocado from skin to salad bowl. True, there was no waste as all the fruit managed to find its way into the salad bowl but it did not slice cleanly and to be honest, looked a bit of a floppy mess, with the partially cut slices sticking together! I am not sure if it is a case of practise makes perfect or luck. Only time will tell. It cleaned up brilliantly in the dishwasher. All in all, this is a very good product but when it comes to avocado presentation I am not as impressed!

Very good

Obviously everything this does can be achieved with a knife. But if you're like me and prone to accidents, this is so much safer for you. I really cannot fault it. It's best to clean it right away because avocado dried onto anything is hard to clean, especially so if you leave it in the slicer gaps I would imagine - simple fix, just rinse it all off right after using then give it a proper wash later when you're ready/put it in the dishwasher if you have one. It's really easy to clean of you follow this method. Great value for money and high quality product.

Let's face it... Despite lightly squeezing avocados in the supermarket, getting the preferred consistency right from the ones we buy is certainly difficult, and that's where the problem with this item lies... I am generally impressed with the OXO range of kitchen utensils, but this avocado tool really is not the best. It works acceptably in very firm avocados, but slightly fibrous or softer ones and you still really are better off using a sharp knife and a dessert spoon. It's not down to my dexterity or technique either... OK for safer stone removal than prising at the stone with a knife, but otherwise a "chocolate treapot" for a great deal of the time that ends up simply mashing the avocado. I've given up and it sits at the back of my drawer now. Definitely one to give a miss...

I bought it for my wifey who is an accident waiting to happen with knives and cutting things. Anyway used for the first time yesterday and no visit to A&E so great 😃

Absolutely love this gadget - without doubt the best gadget I’ve ever bought . Very part of it does exactly as described . The “knife” section easily cuts the avocado skin, the stone remover is just amazing ! Every single time it takes out the Stoke effortlessly (unlike all the slip sliding and gouging that normally happens) and the slicer removes the flesh in gorgeous, straight to the plate, slices . It was always such a faff with avocados that I didn’t bother with them much - now Im using them all the time (instead of buying the prepacked pre-smashed avocado from the supermarket ) - no waste , cheaper and no plastic packaging. If you like / eat avocados then you NEED this tool I put in the dishwasher for easy cleaning

I make guacamole every week. Cutting, deseeding, scooping avocados can be tedious. I thought this looked gimmicky, but took the gamble because of the great reviews. Wow, who thought this would be so effective! The blade is safe enough to touch with your finger, but cuts through avocados with ease. I was shocked that it works as well as any other sharp knife. The seed puller is probably my favorite part as it makes seed removal a breeze. Just tap firmly over the seed, twist and pop it out. Comes out easily without wasting any sticky avocado bits. Lastly the scooper works amazingly well too on avocados of all sizes. It scoops and slices at the same time and is easier to use than a spoon for sure. Great for salads or anything really. All in all, this little device has greatly exceeded my expectations and replaced 2-3 different tools. Just rinse it off when finished and stash it away again. It's really simplified at least one tedious kitchen workflow.

So simpel und doch so effektiv! Ich kann wirklich nichts Schlechtes über diesen Helfer sagen, ausser, dass man das natürlich auch alles mit einem normalen Messer usw. machen kann. Allerdings geht es mit diesem 3-in-1 Tool einfach viel schneller und macht mehr Spaß. Mit dem Kunststoffmesser die reife Avocado rund herum einschneiden, mit dem mittleren Teil den Kern "einklemmen" und rausdrehen und als letztes einfach den "Eierschneider" ansetzen und durch die Avocado ziehen. Schöne gleichmässige Scheiben. Wenn man lieber klein Rechtecke hätte, dann einfach nochmal den "Eierschneider" von der breiten Seite durch die Avocado ziehen und schon hat man kleinere Eckchen. Es geht auch super schnell zu reinigen, einfach unter fließendem Wasser Abwaschen. Der Helfer von OXO liegt gut in der Hand, hat keine scharfen Kanten und ist wertig verarbeitet. Ich bin eh der Meinung, dass OXO sehr gute Küchenhelfer herstellt. Ich liebe das Ding. Wer viel und gerne Avocado isst, der sollte es ausprobieren.

Parfait

mess free and very helpful

これ一つでアボカドを簡単に素早く調理出来ちゃうのが凄い‼️ 半分に切るのもチョー楽に、カッター部分をタネにペコっと刺して、チョットひねれば直ぐ取れて、縦に上から奥へ押し下げる様に下ろせば時短で美味しいアボカドの出来上がりです。メチャクチャお気に入りです。
