I had to interrupt my cooking to write this review. Believe me, I am not easily moved to write product reviews. This would be my second here on amazon (since the writing of this review three years ago I have added many more product reviews here on amazon).
But, this little turning slicer is amazing. Simply amazing. It makes quick work of everything I throw at it and to date that would include:
radishes
carrots
cucumbers
onions (they work a little differently from the other vegetables)
kohlrabi (makes a fabulous, refreshing salad)
zucchini (I can never remember how many "Ns" are in that vegetable)
apples and,
sweet potatoes
I may even have done a celeriac but I can't recall for sure.
This device never balks.
And it is a pleasure to clean.
I had to give up pasta a few months back and I found myself missing the act of twirling long strands of food on a fork. It was then that I searched for a spiral slicer, not sure if one existed that could meet my fork twirling needs. I bought this little gem because I figured it was inexpensive enough that if I didn't like it all that much, it wouldn't be too much of a hardship.
Honestly, for what this does I would easily pay twice or three times the price.
As I write this I am in the middle of spiralling cucumbers for the old family cucumber salad recipe. Many of the strands that come out of this thing get close to 2 feet long. Food prep doesn't get much more fun than that. The First four (large) cucumbers took all of 4 minutes to break down into perfect, long, spirally strands. I have four more to go when I finish this review.
Okay, some of the reviewers here have complained that you lose about 3/8ths from the center of anything you are spiraling, and this is indeed true. In the case of cucumbers, that means that the device is essentially getting rid of those pesky seeds for you but in the case of a carrot, you lose a bit of viable vegetable. Do I mind this? NO, who cares. Use that center 3/8ths carrot piece for something else, or snack on it while you shred the rest of your veggies. Its not as if the center 3/8ths isn't usable, it just isn't made into long spirally strands. So, it wouldn't make sense to try to shred baby carrots or asparagus because they aren't much larger than 3/8ths of an inch so there wouldn't be much to spiral.
I can't speak to the durability of this slicer because, alas, I've only owned it for two months as of this writing. So far so good however and it does seem durable. It is well designed. The extra blades snap into a holder in the middle of the slicer so you aren't likely to lose them nor are you likely to cut yourself on them inadvertantly. Though lightweight, the whole unit feels fairly sturdy and I can't imagine needing to replace it for a long long time. The whole thing suctions onto your work surface which makes it very manageable. I've started using it in preparations where hitherto I've used a mandolin slicer. This spiral slicer doesn't make it easy to cut off fingertips the way you can with a mandolin.
On a final note before I get back to the cucumber salad.... I do not like kitchen devices that make a job longer than it needs to be and that includes gadgets that take forever to clean or have sharp edges to wash and be careful of. You could hurt yourself with this thing but honestly you would have to try pretty hard to do that. it doesn't want to hurt you and the company seem to have thought of everything so that it would only really injure someone determined to draw blood. it is not a child's toy however and so it requires the same respect you would give any other item with sharp blades.
There is one minor quibble I have with the device and hope that the company reads this and deals with it in a future incarnation of the product... when the spirals come out it is a little bit difficult to manage where they will end up. It would be nice if they design a catch basin type thing for the strands as they fall from the blades. This is a minor quibble because you really can catch all the strands if you're careful but I just don't want to have to be careful all the time.
Okay, that's it, back to my cucumber salad.
EDITED July 2013 -- THOUGHTS AFTER 3 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP:
I still absolutely love this thing. It continues to work flawlessly and fairly effortlessly, breaking down all kinds of vegetables. Admittedly my favorites are cucumbers and zucchini but I have spiralized many others as noted above. In all this time it hasn't stained (as many of these gadgets do) and the blades don't seem to have lost any of their effectiveness. I admit that cleaning it, while still relatively easy, is not child's play. Still, it doesn't take long.
I used to put my zucchini noodles in a vegetable basket on the grill with some spiralized onions and coated with a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic and they were a crowd pleaser every time. But it has been brutally hot and humid here so I thought I would go for something a little more refreshing. I served the noodles raw (using the smallest blade) and coated them with a homemade "guacamole" sauce. This was another crowd pleaser and rivals the cucumber salad.
3 years later and I can't sing the praises of this thing highly enough. I just really don't understand the naysayers.... particularly the folks who complain about the wasted vegetable "core" Get creative and find something to do with it. Challenge yourself!
Most of all I am impressed by how well this thing has held up.
UPDATE AUGUST 2013....
There seems to be much debate about whether this little unit suctions effectively to the work surface. For me, it does. I have a polished granite countertop. I am going to guess that this suctions much less well (if at all) to some lightly textured formicas. That may well be where the debate stems from.
RECIPES....
UPDATE:
A BLOG AT LAST! I am just starting to blog my recipes. The first four have been posted but am hoping to get many more up and running.....
okay. here's the blog address spelled out.... my website is s n o o t y d o g - dot - c o m. There is a link at the top of the page for my blog. Let me know if you find it useful
Here's a better breakdown:
Pros: makes prep with veggies super easy, makes you look like a fancy Chef de Garde Manger, encourages healthy fast and delicious meals, easy to clean, durable (everything is plastic except the blades), has suctioned feet so it won't slip on your counter, its fun (it really does makes me laugh).
Cons: get a bristle brush for the blades b/c food won't come out with just a sponge; don't think you're going to fool your spouse and kids into thinking they are eating pasta noodles - they're smart and know it's veggies; it's addictive - if you're buying the produce section out of zucchini you may have a problem; you'll need tongs (zoodles are hard to handle even with a pasta ladle);
I strongly recommend you visit www.inspiralized.com before you buy this product. It's an awesome website that teaches you how to use this thing with incredible results and no-fail recipes. It also features short well done tutorial videos. I wouldn't buy the Spiralizer from anywhere but Amazon since service is so stinking fast and the price is the best I could find. I strongly recommend avoiding imitations of the Spiralizer (hand held versions or ones that look similar). A few of the other girls in the office bought "knock-offs" and were pretty disappointed, returned their products (Veggetti) and bought the Paderno Spiralizer instead. I know it's a little more cash, but it's well worth it. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.

Estou super satisfeita!
野菜のパスタなんか物足りないのではと思っていましたが、とても美味しくてビックリです!毎日ズッキーニをパスタにしています。次は他の野菜でサラダも挑戦してみます!
I especially like anything that will convince my family to eat more veggies. I saw the review for this, thought it was a bit expensive, but ordered it because I thought it sounded cool and I had some gift cards.
Well I was right, it IS cool! And it's fun! My seven year old was delighted with cucumber ribbons, and loves to help me use this gizmo. Cucumbers and zucchini work best for the noodles in my experience, white potatoes work great, sweet potatoes haven't done great in slicing, I'm hoping they'll do well in noodle form. Apples didn't go great either with the straight slicer, but I'm hoping i can make apple 'spaghetti' to mix in with veggies and add a bit of sweetness. Onions don't work with the noodle blade, it just slices them (which is OK, still makes quick work of a big onion) but makes quick curly ribbons with the straight slicer. You're left with a mushroom shaped piece in the end of nearly any fruit or veggie, but in my household, either someone eats it or it goes in the budgie's dish, :)
Cleaning is easy. If you do it right away, a quick rinse right after use is all it takes. Sometimes some veggies get stuck in the blade, just use a brush to get them out to keep your fingers out of there.
The only negative IMO, wee veggies/fruits don't work. Once my bag of baby carrots is gone, I plan to buy a bag of big carrots at Costco (not only the bag is big, the carrots are big), and make a cucumber/carrot mix to add to sandwiches, stir fries, salad, etc.
If you're serving the 'noodles' as a side rather than as spaghetti, you do need to slice them a bit. People aren't prepared to have to twist a portion of veggie onto their fork. Uncut, these strands can be about two feet long (I didn't measure, but they're very long).
Tonight I made zucchini noodles and curly onion strips with my slicer, added some sliced mushrooms, olive oil and salt and pepper, put it on my bbq in a grilling wok. Awesome side dish!
