Old fashioned favorites for today's lifestyles.
The new Peel Away Apple/Potato Peelers turn a tedious chore into a fun, satisfying experience. The revolutionary peeling function of Peel Away will forever change the way you peel potatoes and apples.
Gone are the days of laboring over the kitchen sink with a pan of potatoes. Peeling is so quick and easy, you'll wonder why this product wasn't around years ago. And for apples, one easy operation peels, slices, and cores in seconds.
Makes pies, fruit salads, and apple snacks fun and easy to do, not to mention the time saved when dehydrating or canning bushels of apples.
Made of quality cast iron with stainless steel blades to last a lifetime. (available with either clamp on base or suction cup base).
Either way, the job is much more 'a-peeling' when using Peel Away!

The 3-pronged fork is made of quality steel parts for durability- No cast aluminum used here
Shaft grooves are spaced further apart, providing for a more desirable slice and faster peeling
Durable cast iron body will not wear in critical areas as softer aluminum does
Quality wood handle. No plastic parts

Fabulous gadget Dec 16, 2004
By Tamara A. Mitchell
"Tamalaine"
If you like apple crisp, pie, etc., this gadget is a MUST. I've been peeling, coring, and slicing apples by hand for years, but this takes all the hard work out of my favorite desserts. In seconds, the apple is all clean and ready to bake. Great for pears, too. I have a dehydrator and I've made dried pears and apples for Christmas gifts for people this year using this handy device. I even got my boyfriend to help me because it's so fun to use...and he never cooks!
All of the blades are replaceable, so there is nothing to every wear out. I'm assuming this is the cast iron version of the device. I can't vouch for the aluminum version. The cast iron model is like something my grandmother would have had...rare to find this kind of quality in a gadget these days. No plastic!

Great product, but don't buy it here Feb 14, 2006
By Bobb L. Bittner This is a great peeler. Cook's Illustrated rated it as the best mechanical peeler. I had a very similar looking one that I bought last year, but it wasn't as well made as the A505 and it didn't work as well.
That said, these merchants are a total ripoff. This thing does not weigh 15 pounds and I have no clue why they are charging so much for shipping. I bought mine through cooking dot com, for only a few dollars more and with free shipping.
Interestingly, it appears as though Williams Sonoma stores also sell this peeler, though it is repackaged with their name one it. It still has "Back to Basics" stamped on the base, though.

An absolute must have ..... Apr 03, 2005
By Sarge ... I've had one of these for years now, essential for handling apples in any amount .... the blade is still sharp, works like the day I bought it ..... so glad to see it's more widely available, I would hate to be without one .... makes a great gift for 'newbie' households.... You won't regret it ....

Best ever Dec 21, 2005
By Joanne H. Batjer
"Mom1947"
Just purchased this item. I truely don't know what I did before I got it. It takes about 7 minutes to peel enough apples for an entire pie. It does absolutely great peeling potatoes... especially the ones you skin your knuckles on with a conventional peeler.

Great time saver! Dec 20, 2005
By K. Butler I too have had one of these for years, and can't do without it. It saves about 20 minutes for every apple pie I make. Just rinse the apple and load with the core lined up with the mechanism. The suction cup really sticks the mechanism to the counter top, and the mechanism does its job with just a few spins of the crank. There is very little wasted apple when this thing is done peeling/coring/slicing. It leaves just a bit of skin at the very top and bottom of the apple, but I don't mind cutting that bit off the spiral and munching it (the apple comes out in one big spiral, like a slinky.) Cleanup is very easy too. Rarely, it needs a little hand-holding to start peeling a really huge apple, but then finishes just fine. The nieces and nephew all fight to use it. Now I'm buying one for sis (their mom.) Worth every penny!
