Can this peel soft fruits such as a tomato or ripe pear?

Sorry I can't answer I've never tried to peel either one. But I love this peeler! and plan to give it to everyone in my family in their Christmas stockings.

The peeler doesn't have a serrated edge specifically for soft fruits, but it is able to peel firmer soft fruits such as a firm tomato

I'm not an expert fruit picker. We havnt even used our apple picker yet, excited to do so this fall. I peaches are picked the same way by twisting and pulling the. I would assume it would work. The basket has prongs at the top that u would align with the stem of the fruit and then twist to remove. Not sure that answers your question, but good luck!

Yes! Right now I use it exclusively on tomatoes. I have the four different cones (where the fruit you are wanting to use comes out) and I use the one with the larger holes for making salsa, and a medium size hole for tomato juice. It works wonderfully!

Yes, but I find that this is unnecessary. Cook your fruit first for best results. I've done tomatoes and apples.

No, it won't just remove the peel it will spiralize the entire apple peel and all. I'd suggest you core the apple first if you want to do that.

I would say no. Works with firm fruit like apple and pear. But whew pear gets really ripe fruit falls off spindle. Forget tomatoes potatoes yes

Eggplant may be a little too large for this. I have peeled large apples, potatoes, and yams with no problem.

I use this chopper for onions, firm fruit and all most everything else but tomatoes. I think the tomatoes are just a little soft. I have some other chopprs but this one is the one that I use.

I wouldn't try. The tines not so much sharp as much as they are thin. I think the tomato skin would be too thick.

I would think no...the skin is too thick. It slices think skinned fruits and veggies wonderfully.

Yes, I have peeled many items with this and the thing I like about it is how easy it is to adjust the pressure when peeling. When peeling a fruit or vegetable with a thinner skin I have found this to be the easiest peeler I have used. I am in my 60's so I have used my share of peddlers. Well worth buying.

I think persimmons are too tough for this. This is more for a softer fleshed fruit - like de-seeding tomatoes for one usage.

The deluxe peeler is good for produce with thick skin such as cantaloupe. I have both but use the smaller one (132) more often.

No. I'm not sure how it would be intended to work on other fruits. I have used it exactly once on a mango and it did a poor job and kind of bent in the process, so it is retired to a junk drawer in the kitchen until I get around to tossing it into a Goodwill box.

Only small, firm tomatoes. Even though the blade is ultra sharp, you still have to exert pressure on the vegetable you are slicing. So this slicer would not work with a very ripe tomato.

Yes, it peels apples and pears. With apple and Asian pear, usually round shape, you can peel straight down, or making a fancy circle from top to bottom, the skin with not broke, just one swirl string. With most pears I just peel from the stem end straight down. This peeler peels easily and beautifully with all kinds fruits and vegetables. Personally, in all the peelers I used, more than ten, this is by far the best.

Yes, I've juiced oranges and pineapples, and I know my friend has done grapes. Not sure about pears though, but I don't see why not? Might be a bit pulpier due to their grainy texture, but should work!
