will it also spiral slice zucchini?

Frankly, I don't think it's good for anything. I gave mine away and got a Starfrit.

AS long as it fits, it should slice it. Most zucchinis have a density similar to apples. This is not a heavy duty slicer. It works well, but the screw that holds the wooden crank handle on stripped almost immediately. Easy enough to fix.

I imagine it would if the zucchini were cut into 3-4" segments. I haven't done that and I haven't heard of anyone doing that. My biggest problem with this peeler is that the handle broke. I would have to not recommend this brand, but I would recommend the peeler; I've used one like it extensively over the years. I'm going to try the Victorio brand and see how it goes--it has the best overall reviews.By the way, if the peeler works with zucchini you should post that so others can see how it works. I'm curious and might try it myself next time I have some to cook!

I used the spiral slicer for zucchini on the smallest setting and I steamed it and it did not fall apart. Also, I put it in soup and it did not fall apart.

Could you please tell me if it does carrot or zucchini "pasta" ? if it could shred these two veggies like a noodle or pasta thickness?Thank you

One of the blades will do the apple peeler but, I bought it for the spaghetti spirals it does with zucchini and carrots. I love this thing--my salads are so pretty! They look like magazine photos.

Jobaby44, yes, I have used it on the *8 ball zucchini". You may have to quit in the middle and cut off a little and start over (this is for squash, not a hard veggie like beets).

I have had my slicer for well over a year and I have had no problem. I use it all the time and really love it. I make Zucchini bread for my husband and use it for the uniform slices. I do use it slowly and very careful cause I don't want any problems. I slice a whole of bread at the same time.

Hi there ! Yes it will but ... , for just the relatively small device (if you're thinking about potatoes, which are hard to cut anyway) I suggest you to buy bigger mandoline cutter, like Bron . MIU http://reviews.chefscatalog.com/8855/26141/chefs-commercial-stainless-steel-mandoline-slicer-reviews/reviews.htm Look at Bron Original Stainless Steel Mandoline Slicer -> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bron-Original-Stainless-Steel-Mandoline-Slicer-/230984272926?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash;=item35c7bc4c1e - something like that. beside, you have a lot of video on YouTube to choose from. You have to be prepared to send around 160 dollars. Good luck ! Hi there !

I love my mandoline, but zucchini is difficult if you're looking for lengthwise strips. The guard can work to push the zucchini, but it really only works the way it's intended if you are looking to make chip-style cuts.

I don't see why not it will shred the zucchini I don't know if shape matters.

If you remove the coreer and the peeler arm, you can slice anything that will stick on the three prongs. I have only done apples and potatoes, but I don't see why it wouldn't do anything that you wanted. There is a thumbscrew to remove the corer at the end of the device, a spring that will allow you to loosen up the peeler so it doesn't peel. This would leave you with only the spiral slicing. I don't believe it would slice all the way through though, since normally it does remove the cor. I have not tried to adjust that but it may be possible.

I dont believe so. Its for veggies. I think it would be like any other knife and would squash down the cheese as you cut. Potatoes and tomatoes arent supposed to stick to it because of the little grooves, but they do anyway.

I do not know since I gave it as a gift and we are waiting for the veggie gardens this year to produce tons of zucchini. Sorry

You can make long and short spiral strips. It's easier to get spirals out of the Zucchinis while the carrots spiral is a bit harder because it's a much firmer vegetable

Yes. There is a separate blade that be changed and used to shred cabbage, sprouts, onions, even zucchini. Quite easy to change once you've done it a few times."

Hi Susan- I havent used all the blades yet, but there is a blade called the adjustable slicer, which I used to slice thin lemon slices- it should work well with zucchini as well as the fries blades which julienes a bit larger. hope this helps

It can spiral slice anything, but the core of the vegetable would be removed as well.

Hello Susano, I don't know if this will work for longer julienne veggies, but I do make nice long julienne "french fried" potatoes using this slicer. Do you have a specific purpose ie recipe for the longer julienne zucchini? Please let me know what that is, and I will try it for you before you purchase this slicer. You can contact me here, or at my email joyrose94@yahoo.comThank youVal
