Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Apple Corer and Divider
Customer Review: Great product that does just what I needed for a good price.
Summary: 5 Stars
I eat a lot of apples, and I've been really pleased with this Oxo apple corer. The last one I owned from another manufacturer broke within a couple weeks of using it. So far this one has held up extremely well through almost daily use. I really like the rubber grips on the handles as they make it easier to press down. It's easy to clean and well priced. (you get what you pay for with cheap corers)
A couple common complaints I've seen about corers can be alleviated. The first is that the corer doesn't slice all the way through to the bottom and it can be difficult to remove the apple. Thats because of the rounded bottom of the apple. The solution here is to use a knife to just slice about 1/16 of an inch off the bottom of the apple to break the skin and then use the corer. The corer will cleanly slice all the way down and it's easy to remove the apple.
The second problem is that some people, myself included, prefer thinner slices. Just use the corer twice on the same apple. All you do is slice the apple as above, lift the apple from the corer, then set the apple back down on the board (it will stay together), rotate the corer a bit and then press down again quickly which slices the slices in half again. Unless you're working with a really mushy apple (chilled apples slice better) I've found this works very well to get thinner slices.
