Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kyocera CP-20 RD Perfect Peeler, Red
Customer Review: Fabulous Peeler!
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this peeler every single day to peel fresh fruit for my smoothie. I love mine so much I bought 3 more, one for every woman in my family. I can peel mangoes in one long strip. Ripe kiwis - no problem! The peels might be a little too thin on carrots and potatoes - it's hard to tell where you've peeled a carrot. But it's actually fun to peel them, so no worries.
I like the rotating head. For fruit I keep the blade facing me at a 45-degree angle, so I end up using the peeler like an effortless paring knife. But for carrots and potatoes I turn it so the blade's facing straight away like a regular peeler.
The only thing I can think of that would improve this peeler would be if, at the end of the handle, there was a hook or something to dig out blemishes or potato eyes. If it had that, I'd agree it's the Perfect Peeler. But even without it, this is definitely my peeler of choice. It's pretty expensive, but if you're going to use it often, I think it's worth it. And hey, it's not like you're going to buy them often. I've had mine for over a year, and there's no reason to think I'll ever have to replace it.
Customer Review: Incredible customer service for a great product
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't praise this product enough, as it is hands-down the sharpest and most convenient peeler I've ever owned. I was surprised that some reviewers felt that this wasn't the sharpest blade around. I've never used or seen anything remotely close to it.
I vaguely remember a reviewer saying that theirs broke, but didn't give it another thought until last night when mine broke too. I just called Kyocera, all it took was a quick internet search to find info about their 5 year warranty. Within three minutes they had taken my address to ship a new peeler......and never even asked me to prove my purchase. When I commented on that, the rep said "we trust you". So my replacement is to arrive later this week. Wow.
If it breaks once in a while, but Kyocera will replace it so easily, I'll keep on reaping praise.
FYI - Kyocera's customer service number for US and Canada is 888-700-7371
Customer Review: BEST GADGET!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
GREAT GADGET!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! STAYS VERY SHARP AND POSITION OF BLADE IS ADJUSTABLE TO USE AT DIFFERENT ANGLES.
I purchased this peeler approx. 3 years ago and until yesterday when it broke, it was the best peeler I ever owned!!! I think that I more than got my money's worth with the 3 years I used it. I am ordering another one today as well as the "straight, vertical one." I have been looking for a 2nd one of these(before mine broke) and could not find it in any of the major cookware stores(Sur La Table, William Sonoma. Bed Bath & Beyond, and Macy's)do not carry it.
If you are worried about the tiny plastic pieces that hold the blade, breaking, than order the vertical one. It is made differently.
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED ONCE YOU USE A CERAMIC BLADE PEELER. JUST WATCH YOUR FINGERS!!!!
Customer Review: LOVE PEELING POTATOES WITH MY KYOCERA PEELER
Summary: 5 Stars
Have you ever wished you could peel a potato like they do on these reality cooking shows on television? Well I did, and now I know the great world these chefs live in, pertaining to potato peeling. This peeler glides through, even the toughest, skin of the potato either pulling the peeler towards you or left or right hand peeling. This thing is great, I have wanted a better peeler, in view of the fact my peeler is old and dull. Well I bought the best darned vegetable peeler I could ever imagine. I find myself trying to create situations where I need to use my Kyocera kitchen tools and knives preparing foods.
I not only recommend this ceramic peeler I also recommend all my Kyocera knives, guillotines, and peelers.
The prices are a little high but you definitely get what you pay for.
Customer Review: LOVE IT!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I received one of these peelers from my mom as a gift and when my daughter was helping me peel carrots, she accidentally broke it! Ah! I was so bummed. I immediately went online to Amazon and purchased TWO so I would never be without my favorite kitchen tool. :) It is very sharp, the head is adjustable (so it works if you are right or left-handed) and it can zip through peeling a potato (my LEAST favorite job) in no time. I love this product. Thanks, Mom, for the peeler and thanks to Amazon for shipping everything so fast!
