Can you use this for zucchini?

It would peel the zucchini for you. You can loosen the nut and move the corer so that it doesn't core or slice.

Coring is optional. Loosen wingnut and move coring elem out of the way. (as another poster pointed out)

It can do zucchini, linguini, tortellini, martini, bikini. Wait.. Never mind. That's the slap chop.

It would core it while it spiral sliced and peeled it. I think that would be a waste of a lot of zucchini since it doesn't need to be cored! There's no way to avoid coring

I have only used it for carrots but I imagine zucchini or small cucumbers might work. For the results you get with the carrots alone, it is well worth the price.

It is normal. With zucchini it is mostly seeds so i throw it in with the compost. With other veggies it's just a tube of veg so I chop it up into the dish.

Yes. I have used it on zucchini and yellow squash, radish and a few other veggies.

I would say yes, but I would cook the zucchini separately and add them to the soup mixture after it's done cooking. Zucchini would fall apart if you cook them together.

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."

I would imagine you could, as the blades are very sharp. I only shred veggie scraps.

The size of the julienned strips is good for citrus, but too small/thin for zucchini noodles, in my opinion. I would go with a spiralizer for zucchini like this one at Williams Sonoma. http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/paderno-sprializer/

Make sure that the sharp edges are turned into the vegetable, then you just go up & down, the zucchini should start shredding . If it's not happening it's probably a dud

Yes you can! I used it on watermelons and butternut squash and it worked fine.

I'm sure UberChef answered your concern. So far, I've used it for zucchini and cucumber and it works great!

Yes the zucchini I used was pretty soft and it worked fine. I kept it raw thought and only microwaved it with sauce enough to make it hot. Otherwise it would've made the zucchini pasta too mushy.

No, the holes would be too big for that purpose, I use it for pasta and veggies only.

Yes. If you cut the cabbage into quarters first, it should work well. I found that the holder isn't very helpful with some vegetables, though. Just watch your fingers. The blade is very sharp. It's ceramic, but it looks like plastic. So, its appearance is deceiving.

I usually do firmer vegetables, like root vegetables, but have used it on yellow squash and zucchini and it worked well. It's pretty sharp.

I did not try it for vegetables. I think it would work well. It's just the cleanup that is really the problem for me.
