Product Description Make a quick, simple job of coring apples and pears for baking, canning or fruit salads with this ergonomic tool.
Amazon.com Review Round, perfect apple rings are simple with this corer by Oxo. With itsdurable stainless-steel head, it slices swiftly through fruit; just shake it to get the core out of the tool. Use it to make pristine baked apples and apple rings, or try it with pears. A soft, oversized, nonslip rubber handle absorbs the pressure the work puts on your hands. With a large hole for hanging, storage is easy. Cleanup is easy, as well--like all Oxo Good Grips tools, this is dishwasher-safe. --Laurie Notaro

Sturdier than you think February 11, 2010 L. Gardner (Idaho) This is the only corer that I was worried about (I bought three different styles because of the differences in my family), but this little guy is great. It doesn't feel bulky and it does look kind of lightweight but it isn't. This little guy goes right through the skin and does a good fast job of going through the apple. On large, irregular apples it may need a second pass but it is not a problem for this corer. This could only be better if it made a larger hole but I wouldn't want to give up its narrow tip to make a larger core.The narrow tip is what makes this corer nice, because you can go back in the core to get those stray seeds that get missed and not make a bigger hole.
Best Ever January 30, 2010 Cooking Enthusiast (Minneapolis, MN) This is the best apple corer ever. I use it every day. On larger apples it can leave a small amount of the core behind, but not a big deal.
Core B Gone December 3, 2009 Lynn Lutz (San Bernardino, CA USA) Great little tool, havent given it the torcher test yet, but for everyday take the core out applications it works great and as usual got it fast from Amazon...
pretty good November 7, 2009 A Mother of 2 Kidlets (Chicago suburbs) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Apple corers have always been a pain. The kind wth the handles that you center over the apple and push down into wedges...those just don't work well. If the core is off center, you end up with a difficult cut and having to pare away the core from the slices.
This Oxo Good Grips Corer is nice. The trick to using this one is to twist as you push and yo get a much cleaner coring. I used this and then slice the apples into rings...my kids love it.
Excellent Corer November 3, 2009 J. Cullen (Boston, MA) I followed the recommendation of Cook's Illustrated in buying this. The corer is so much better than the half circle corer I used growing up. Solid handle is easy to grip and gives you enough torque that it feels almost effortless to use. The hardest part is aiming the thing so it goes through the center of the apple. Also the size of the core extract is a little on the small side for the biggest apples. A little of the core is left in the apple, but for normal store sized apples it works great. Highly recommended!
