11 years of continual use..and counting Feb 01, 2010
I got my Rotato in May of 1999 when I had a serious kitchen accident,(the only one in 40 + years of kitchen work. I couldn't get my left index finger wet for at least 6 weeks and had to apply daily dressings to boot. I was the only parent in a home with three kids. I needed to be able to peel potatoes and other foods for cooking and keep my finger out of the way. In the almost 11 years since I am only on my third blade. We use this about three times a week at a minimum. I have even peeled apples for apple pie. When I married my husband 10 years ago he thought it was hilariously silly that I had bought this thing. Two days ago when I cleaned out my kitchen he came in to make sure I didn't get rid of the Rotato. In fact, he wants me to buy another one for insurance that we will never be without. Obviously, my finger has healed and the initial reason for getting this is long past. I still use it since it works so well and so fast. My youngest, now 15, grew up using this and peeling potatoes for Mom. I let her use it without reservation. As for the reviewer who mentioned arthritis, you're dead on. My arthritic hands do not stiffen or weary even when prepping large Thanksgiving meals. It's a good, durable product and I didn't spend much on it.

Rotato Manual Peeler Jan 30, 2010
One of the best products ever invented for peeling almost anything. Fast, neat, reduces waste, and love the fact that you can order replaceable blades. The blades do have a decent life. I highly recommend this product for other's like me who may have arthritis in their fingers, hands, or wrist.

My favorite goofy gadget! Jan 16, 2010
I'm replacing my old Rotato with this one as my old one will no longer go back to the top by releasing the back clamp...I have to wind it up by the handle which is a little tiring after winding it down to peel. Otherwise my old faithful has been working for maybe...10 years?! And I think it was a gag gift at that. I'm even still on the second blade it came with! I should point out that I don't use russet potatoes as a rule. I stick with white, yukon gold, and red varieties which are much thinner skinned and don't hold the grub and dirt that russet skins do(even with scrubbing). I never tried it on other fruit or veggies except for carrots (which it recommended), but that didn't work too well so I stick with the potatoes. It's fast, easy and keeps me from peeling my fingers!

I really loved my first one. It lasted for about 7 years. I replaced it with this one. It's heavier and easier to handle, however, the blade pops out very easily at the start of the peeling. I still think it's easier than peeling with a knife. I have broken both wrists so peeling with a knife is difficult. I would recommend this product for anyone who has arthritis or carpel tunnel.

The Tater Peeler Mar 02, 2009
Seems to be a good product, and this is not my first peeler of this type. The only problem we have with the peeler is the build up of peelings in the blade and they are somewhat difficult to clean out. Other than that we are well satisfied. Good product for the price.
