" ... That's because it peels off thick slices of potato, not just peel. ... "
" ... My only complaint with the Jonas is that the handle is thin, and not as easy to grip as other brands. ... UPDATE- I have contacted the seller, as this fell apart during use. ... "
" ... The blade feels loose when I use it, so it frequently grazes over the item I'm trying to peel rather than catch it. ... "
" ... This came apart into two pieces after 1 year and 5 months of very light use (approximately under 50 uses). ... "
" ... Opened at Christmas and broke on first potato. ... "
" ... Broke in pieces in the first two weeks I had it. ... "

" ... Made potato peeling easy and quick and didn’t fall apart. ... "
" ... I’ve tried cheap look alikes over the years & threw them out. ... "
" ... It's sharp enough that it will take the skin off your fingers if desire . ... "
" ... You can use push or pull stroke - both work equally well. ... The grip is more comfortable than my old peeler - it's smooth and more rounded. ... "
" ... Its size and shape is very comfortable to the hands, even to small hands like those of short people and children. ... Peeling is very smooth and easy on the hands. ... This is so natural and easy to use we could peel an entire persimmon with just one smooth action without breaking the skin. ... "
" ... Both me and my wife find it fits well in our hands, is sharp, is easy to use (one of us is right handed and the other left handed). ... "
