This is single-use item that is well worth the price...if you like pineapples. I was skeptical that a single-use item could be of value, but once I used it, I have not shied away from picking up more pineapples. The grip is large enough for most hands, and the coring tube is well constructed and sturdy. The unit can be broken down for easy clean-up and storage.

You can have it sliced and chopped in under a minute, just check the video!

With this I try to get pineapples that aren't super wide, but taller.  Wider pineapples tend to leave a little meat on the sides when using this device.

I really like this product.  It makes it so easy to prepare pineapple...and it's fast, too.  I did have a problem with it one time when my pineapple was a bit overripe.  It made pineapple mush and didn't pull out of the "shell" very easily.  I think it was more about the pineapple than the slicer though.

Ive used this for pineapples and watermelons. Of course with both, a few knive cuts are needed before hand. Otherwise, it was smaller than expected. Which means you can only use small melons. Not most watermelons. Otherwise, pineapple cuts work great.

Good flavor, nice product.  Nice size--smaller can which is great when you don't want to open the large, industrial size can of pineapple that sits unused  in your refrigerator for 3 months before it becomes a science experiment.  No guilt.  All you single people out there--you know what I'm talkin' about.

I love fresh pineapple so thought I would try it. It works great! When I cut a pineapple by hand I end up losing half of it when I cut the skin off. This slicer also helps keep it from being so messy!

This thing is absolutely amazing!  All the pineapple came out and was perfect!  I will now buy pineapple all the time!

This is the most amazing thing!!!!!
I eat fresh pineapple every day
And before this, cutting a pineapple was a pain!
Now with this you just cut off the top of the pineapple and then screw it in(that's the only way I can explain it)
And then when you can't turn it anymore because it's at the bottom of the pineapple just pull it out
Instant pineapple rings then wash the device
If you eat a lot of pineapple like me then this is for you!!!!

When I first got this I was very skeptical that it would be big enough to get the most of my pineapple meat when I used it. I was so skeptical I considered returning it without even using it.

Nonetheless, I gave it a shot. WOW!

On a Costco sized pineapple. I cut the top, ALIGNED the core cylinder so it was centered around the pineapple core. I gave it light pressure and just kept turning it. The entire process took about a minute!! The hardest part was pulling the Cutter with the pineapple out of the husk. It created a suction and took a little working, but again. People! ONE MINUTE.

Remove the black handle and drop the pineapple spiral on your cutting board and I quartered the ring in two slices and had perfectly cut pineapple pieces. There wasn't that much pineapple meat left, not enough to bother with anyway. I dropped some rum in the husk and had myself a pretty awesome cocktail with fresh pineapple juice as a treat.

The only negative I can say about this is that the spiral cutter cuts the slices a little thin for my taste. I like much bigger chunks, but it works great for my toddler and I can work with the smaller bites!

We looked at several of these devices to gut a pineapple. The stainless steel one looked good, but noticed, like several others, that it only came in one size, medium.

So, we settled on this fellow, as it had three sizes of cutters. We are really glad we got this, as most of the pineapples we get are large, a couple were medium. As long as you are going to do this, we feel it is best to get the biggest pineapples you can find.

I am amazed at how easy it is to use this. Perhaps the only tricky part is knowing when to stop turning when you reach the bottom, but even if you keep going, you will just cut through the bottom.

Some hints: 1. After cutting the top off, put the fruit into a plastic pan of some kind, as a lot of juice will come out. 2. When finished cutting, instead of trying to hold the outside of the pineapple and pull the fruit out. just hold the plastic tube and pull the outside off. Something like pulling a sock off your foot. 3. For some reason, we notice that the fruit gets sweeter after a day or two, so put it in a plastic covered dish in the fridge, and wait a bit.
4. When pulling the fruit out, don't hold the removable handle, as it will come off too easily; just hold the tube.

Love the taste of fresh pineapple, and love this thing..

I do love it, ihad bought some before for gifts and everyone loved them. A person I had given one to ask me to by 2 for her for gifts. It makes cutting pineapple so easy. I have eaten more pineapple last year and this year than my 76 years, because it's so easy to cut and my mom in her last 96 years has eaten more, because of the cutter. It is excellent.

The slicer is very convenient and super easy to use. However, if you are interested of keeping the outer shell to use it in any other use (e.g. A cup or something).. This doesn't allow as it leaves a hole at the bottom of the pineapple!

This Pineapple slicer works Great! I just used this morning on 2 fresh pineapples and it was amazingly quick and easy. I was a little apprehensive of the plastic cutting blades but it was no trouble at all. It is great that it comes with 3 different size cutter blades. I used the largest one and it was like a hot knife through butter. I can only image that they get even easier to use as you move to the smaller blades. The cutter left the core in the middle of the "rind" and easily removed only the best part of the meat in nice manageable rings. Just like in a can of Pineapple rings except a 100% more delicious.

It is crazy that I would be so enthusiastic about a Pineapple slicer, but after using this baby One Time, you would be too.

Fresh Pineapple is back on the menu!

it works great only thing is it appears they are all " one size fits all pineapples. " so on  a large one, you get lots of waste.

I love this!  I can cut pineapples in about one minute with this (after cutting the top of the pineapple off).

I don't eat fresh pineapple often, but when I do I am so glad I have this tool!  Makes it so easy to core, and no worries about cutting yourself accidently!

I love fresh pineapple, but dread the mess of cutting up the pineapple.  This thing works great and makes slicing fun and clean-up easy.  I was skeptical upon ordering, but after using it the first time I was sold.  I even bought another one for my friend.  Highly recommended!
