Amazon.com Review
Fresh-cut pineapple is like a little taste of paradise--and if hacking up the whole spiky shebang weren't such a royal pain, we'd probably all eat a lot more of it. Vacu Vin's award-winning slicer takes the work and mess out of this tropical treat, peeling, coring, and slicing an entire pineapple in just 30 seconds. Equipped with a medium blade to fit most sizes of fruit, it works just like a corkscrew. Simply cut off the pineapple's top and twist the cutter into its interior to create perfectly shaped rings; turn once to create just a single slice, or several times to cut up the whole fruit at once. The shell is preserved intact to use for a dessert or drink bowl, providing the perfect presentation for dessert or drinks at your next luau. This durable plastic slicer also makes a great hostess gift, especially for a beach party or vacation home visit. --Mary Park

 Pineapple corer does the job December 25, 2008
Overall, this product works very well. There is some waste on the bigger pineapples, but in return you retain all the juice and most of the pineapple is sliced quickly.
Some pros, some cons December 7, 2008
The pros:
1. Your pineapple is sliced and ready to eat in about a minute. 2: Kids love to drink the leftover juice in the shell with a straw or I fill it with supplement juice if they want more. 3. The shell would be great to use for drinks for a tropical party theme.
The cons of the pineapple slicer are:
1. The slices are not very attractive if you want to use them for guests. It cores the pineapple in a curling fashion so the slices are thin and round. Essentially, they look like you just took them out of a can.
2. The slicer is only one size, so if you get a pineapple that is large a lot of the "meat" is left behind and is difficult to get out.
In all, the slicer is a great tool if you are looking for something quick and easy. The slicer is not great if you are looking to display the fruit for guests.
 Pineapple Slicer is a Whiz! December 1, 2008
Vacu Vin's Pineapple Slicer is very easy to use and leaves a nice hull for a fancy drink or serving piece. The slicer and a pineapple make a nice hostess gift, and can be made to look festive enough for holiday or special occasion "gifting" for very few dollars. Thumbs up! I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Did as advertised, but broke after 4 pineapples October 30, 2008
The product performed as advertised for the first 4 pineapples but
the turning handle broke on the 5th pineapple.
Nice to use a couple of times for fun, but not worth the $10.
I love this little item! October 17, 2008
It's easy to use, and I love that you can use the 'shell' of the pineapple for either a centerpiece or 'fruit bowl' to put your pineapple and other fruit in. I would recommend highly!!
