OXO Good Grips 三合一牛油果切片机 - 绿色

Well that depends on your perspective of need vs. want and how often you eat avocados. For our family, this device replaces three tools (large knife for seed removal, small knife for slicing avocado inside skin, and large spoon for scooping out the avocado meat). It can be daunting to have to maneuver and clean this many tools every single time we eat an avocado, and for us it is almost daily.

Finding this 3-in-1 tool by Oxo made me giddy; but, left me wondering if it were more of a gimmick than a tool. I took the plunge and purchased it solely on the reputations of Oxo as a developer of intuitive, well-made kitchen utensils and Amazon’s solid return policy should this item be ineffective for my needs.

This investment has paid off. Right out of the package I could feel the durability and stout structure of the utensil. I have small hands and find this tool to be a bit big for my handling; but, the more I use it the more I adapt, and the more impressed I become with it’s ingenuity. The end that cuts through the avocado skin, although a thick plastic, penetrates the avocado skin like softened butter. The seed extraction blades worried me at first as they are blunt with no sharp ends; however, they sink into avocado seeds with great ease. Releasing the seed from it’s blading counterparts is no longer a dangerous activity for myself or the sink. As for the slicing spooned end of this tool: the plastic is stout and stronger than well-made plastic butter knives and is definitely better quality than a similar device I purchased made by Cook’s; inserting the spooned end, slicing, then scooping is easy enough as the plastic cuts through the avocado meat like softened butter. The only issue I have ran into is dealing with stem strings that come through the stem into the avocado meat; but, I feel that this issue is more of a learning curve in use of this tool than a reflection on the tool itself.

As for cleaning, prevention is always the best bet, simply rinse the entire utensil off directly after using it and you will avoid the headache of dried avocado meat stuck in small crevices. With regards to product improvement… at this point in time I see none to be had. Time will tell as to the longevity of this tool. A stainless steel version (18:8 or 18:10) would be splendid; but, until such is placed on the market, I will continue to revel in the ingenuity of this existing avocado tool and remain appreciative to Oxo for their intuitive creativity!

I love this slicer! Works great, the plastic knife and pitter are both very durable, and it’s compact and stylish in design.

Works really great and it seems like the plastic should be durable for a long time!

Slicing the avocado and removing the pit – fantastic! Both work wonders, so I am happy about it. But the plastic part that is supposed to remove the avocado half from the peel and slice it does not work at all, unless the avocado is so far from ripe it’s not that great to eat. Photo shows to the left the avocado removed and sliced with the tool – you can see it gets mushy and unappealing – on the right, two halves removed with a spoon and sliced with a knife. So, basically the tool would be perfect either if the plastic cutter would have been absent, or if it had metal little blades instead of plastic to slice through the flesh.

Pratique pour couper l’avocat en deux et enlever le noyau mais concernant l’ustensile pour faire des belles tranches c’est moins évident. L’avocat doit pas être trop mûr

Minskar risken för skärskador pga av att knivseggen är av plast. Man bör dock ha klart för sig att den fungerar olika bra på olika storlekar av avokados.

The OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer is a kitchen essential for avocado lovers. The tool is designed with a comfortable, non-slip handle and features three functions: a slicer, pitter, and scoop, all in one. The pitter easily removes the seed, while the slicer creates perfect avocado slices, and the scoop helps extract the flesh cleanly. It’s sturdy, easy to clean, and makes prepping avocados quick and mess-free. A must-have for anyone who frequently enjoys avocados!

When I looked at it and decided to order it I was skeptical if it would actually work. Well, it really does. It is so easy to use. The cutting side, even though it doesn’t look like it would cut around the pit, it does! The center is used to remove the pit and the back side has a hole to just push it out. The slicer works well too. Nice kitchen gadget.
