Product Description
The Johnny Apple Peeler will peel, slice, and core at the same time by simply turning the crank handle. It is the perfect kitchen tool for all varieties of apples and it's also a great time saver. The Johnny Apple Peeler combines three steps into one: peel, slice and core. Place an apple on the fork, turn the handle and let the Johnny Apple Peeler do the work for you. The stainless steel blades will peel, slice and core the apple as the handle turns. The result is even, 1/4" slices that are ready to eat, dehydrate or use in a recipe. The adjustable peeling blade will cut as much or as little of the peel as you'd like. The peeling blade can also be locked out of the way if non-peeled slices are desired. The all-in-one slicing and coring blade can be removed if you don't want to core or slice but just want to peel. The tension on the peeling arm is controlled by a spring so it conforms to the shape of the apple or potato giving you a perfect peel every time. The durable, cast iron body is longer than other peelers to better handle larger apples or potatoes. The convenient clamp base mounts to tables or counters up to 1-5/8 inches thick. A rubber pad guards against marring.

From my experience, there's a bit of setup required each time before you start peeling to make sure things go smoothly. This is primarily just making sure the coring blade is on tight and that it's perfectly centered with the rod pushing the apple through it. It's a bit harder than you might think since the hole is just barely larger and its end is triangular so you actually have to turn the handle and make sure it clears all the way around through the turn. The upside is that the small hole for the core means its cutting close to the core and you end up with less waste per apple. It's worth the extra couple of minutes of setup to make sure you won't be hitting the sides of the corer and possibly bending it. As a side note, be careful to pay attention which way the coring blade goes on - if you're not paying attention it can easily go on backwards. I actually did this once and since this is such a solid unit with a lot of mechanical advantage behind the crank, it will just bend the coring blade. Thankfully with a bit of force I was able to bend it back. It really isn't flimsy, it just shows how hard the crank can push. And also the blade is one of several parts that you can get replacements of for just a couple of dollars, so you can plan of having this peeler for many years and replacing some of the parts that are going to take some wear and tear.
If you've never seen how a peeler like this works before, it slices your apples in a spiral - like an apple slinky. So the slices you'll end up with are different from the wedges you would get by hand, but the thickness is good. I found that you can cut each spiral cut apple in half from the top down and you get good sized pieces for a pie. You also want to make sure that you're using decent apples - I believe the manual tells you to make sure they are Grade A (there are USDA standards for shape/size). If you try discounted/misfit apples from the bargain bin you'll likely get some where the core is way off center and this peeler won't be able to reach the entire surface.
The only negative I have is that I found it to be not that great for potatoes. It works great for apples because you don't need to peel the top and bottom of the core, since you're just throwing it out. Unfortunately, for potatoes this leaves spots on the ends that are left not peeled, requiring you to peel those spots by hand. I don't think it's a fault with this brand/model, it's just based on the way that this type of peeler works. Maybe the potatoes I was using were particularly deformed, but I also found there were a lot of bumps and indents that the peeler was missing. Honestly I didn't 't think it was worth using for potatoes the one time I tried it, but you don't have to take my word for it.
All in all this is a great kitchen tool for when you need to peel large batches of apples. You won't be disappointed.
Here is what I liked best:
-Solid construction, nicely machined, and well-finished
-Suction base sticks fiercely to my granite counter and doesn't come loose; if you have a smooth, non-porous surface to mount it on, this is so much better than the ones that clamp to the underside of the counter with a screw (and invariably wobble)
-Very clearly written instruction book (not some bad translation into English from another language)
-Reasonable price (I know there is another one on this site that looks about the same, and costs a few bucks less, but I thought this one had better overall reviews)
-Works with a wide variety of apple sizes, even ones that are pretty large; also adapts well to lopsided apples without messing up
-The hoop that does the coring does a really good job of keeping the apple centered, despite the shape of the apple. You just need to do your best to align the apple when mounting it on the tines, but the peeler is pretty forgiving even if the apple has a fair amount of wobble
-Once it starts cutting it doesn't miss any part of the peel on the bulk of the apple; it leaves only about 1/8" at the top and bottom where the apple is "flat"...and I just eat that
-The spiral cut slices are a great thickness for dehydrating, for freezing, and for making pies
I was concerned that the loop-shaped blade would "waste" more apple flesh than a straight blade, but the waste is trivial. In fact, in my experience with a straight-bladed model, the gouging on all the apples that weren't perfectly shaped did lead to a lot of waste. For my first batch, I processed about 50-60 apples of 5 different species, which ranged widely in size, symmetry, and firmness. The only one I had trouble with was one that wasn't a firm apple to start with and had been sitting out for a couple of weeks; it was so soft that the tines started to turn freely in the core before the whole apple was finished being peeled. If I would have processed it when it was fresh this wouldn't have been a problem.
I set mine up on the edge of the granite counter right next to the sink, and all the waste went right in: no more peels and apple juice making my floor sticky.
This is one of those kitchen gadgets that works well consistently, as opposed to those that work well 90% of the time, but are annoying and time consuming the other 10% of the time. In fact, this is actually fun to use and fast...and that's important when you are looking at dealing with bushels of apples.
