Anyone here have any experience with this brand? It was a good price and the reviews are terrific.

I don't know the brand, but mine looks similar - maybe popped out of the
same mold across the sea.

It is great, and totally adequate for the price, vs. the stainless steel
versions. I think you have to figure out how to make your two hands do the
job of three, but you'll get the hand of it.

I made a big batch of spiraled zucchini and yellow squash, with pesto sauce,
for a big BBQ. Even the old Italian guy thought there was real pasta in
there - he couldn't believe it was ALL veggie.

No. Before this, I didn't even know spiral slicers were sold for home
use.

I'll report my experiences. I'm looking forward to this. I saw a recipe the other day for butternut squash "spaghetti". Yum.

My DIL likes to do things like that, but just has the hand held model
- so I sent her the link.

I found the spiral slicer to be faster for that quantity, and a mandoline
won't make the "spiral" cut, which makes not just "curly" but longer cuts.

It was a side dish, and enthusiastically received.

With the passage of time, technology is enhancing every day. Different kinds of machines inventions really ease out human work in Food and healthcare industry. You can also call me as Vegge lady when it comes to food. I always like to spiralizing the vegetables, especially my favourite zucchini Pasta which I love most. I got my spiral slicer as a gift from my husband. He ordered a shipment from Amazon.com: Home and Garden Elements Premium Spiral Slicer - Easy to Use, Compact Vegetable Spiralizer with Stainless Steel Julienne Super Sharp Japanese Blades - Perfect Spiral Vegetable Slicer to Create Awesome Vegetable Pasta and Decorative Dishes
just one day before my birthday. It is very awesome with stainless steel handles and its very easy to clean HGE Spiralizer.
