It's made of really quality materials, very nice, heavy weight plastic and stiff, sturdy springs. The top and bottom disconnect for ease of use and cleaning, the springs lock down (from the top) so storage is easy, and the metal tines are super strong and last well.
BUT the middle plastic plate, that holds the cherries for pitting must be seated properly every single time or you'll have the problem I did with my first one and those strong metal tines will start to chip at the plastic plate and you'll break your pitter (eventually) and end up with tiny shards of plastic in your fruit. Now, it's not hard to seat properly, really, it's not, it fits very nicely where it's supposed to. But, when you're pitting pounds and pounds of cherries, it's easy to miss it sliding out of place as you move it around, most typically when removing and replacing cherries. I found that pressing the pitter closed then gently tapping the hinged corner on your work surface will move the pits back to that corner, allowing you to pit longer without the pits from previous cherries interfering with pitting the next. But that could mean that the plastic plate isn't seated properly when you reopen it, so it's definitely something to keep your eye on as you add more cherries to it to continue pitting.
I really do love this gadget (and I'm not one for kitchen gadgets, in general.) It's convenient, quick, and easy to use. Cleaning it, well, I'm a bit of a neatnik so it's a little irritating. The bottom and plastic cherry plate are easily washed but the top is a bit more tricky. You can lock the spring plate back (like you'd do for storage) and clean the tines and bottom of the spring plate just fine but the top of the spring plate, where juice and, sometimes, small pieces of cherry skin end up, is much harder. The opening is quite small and you can only really get in there with small straw type brushes to do any real *washing,* though it's easily rinsed in hot soapy water. If that isn't going to bother you, you'll be fine. But if you're one to want to scrub all the surfaces, it's really not possible with this version.
But I find this to be a huge lifesaver on occasions too! Such as: my favorite Thanksgiving stuffing recipe uses green olives. When we don't notice that the ones we bought have pits, it is a huge time sink to put them but hand, and you end up with a mess of variously sized chunks/mash of olive. And when you're rushing with a bunch of other dishes, that is not a fun realization. So I bust out this little pitter, and BAM! The olives are ready to cut and use! No mess, no stress. Works like a charm, and I love it.
So, this is not a kitchen necessity but I appreciate having it. 5 stars for performance and value!
I will say that while it does come apart to clean, the top part does not come apart. I am still able to get it clean, but I wish the top came apart to clean up by the metal spike things. Even so, I highly recommend this thing.
My one complaint is that, while it pitted 100% of the cherries completely, it left a small number of pits dangling from the fruit. So for perhaps 10% of the time, an extra operation was needed to flick off the pit. I was preparing the fruit for the dehydrator; I was surprised to find a few pits still clinging to fruit after dehydration. I advise that you examine your pitted fruit carefully to find all the dangling pits and remove them.
