Paderno World CuisineFolding Spiral Vegetable Slicer/Countertop-Mounted Plastic Spiralizer Pro incl. 4 Different Blades Made of Stainless Steel

Makes nice spirals but not easy to use

I am amazed that amazon has put the price up; it was £60 a few days ago. I bought mine at this price (including postage) from Paderno, Italy, directly. Brilliant, it arrived by DHL in 4 days.The unit is heavy-duty smooth plastic and the steel blades are extremely sharp. The unit is easy to assemble and use, though I found the suction to be a touch poor, mainly because my laminate worktop is not a smooth surface that the manufacturers expect you to use. So, I am using a smooth 24 inch square bathroom tile I got for a fiver for kneading dough. Magic! The first thing I tried was celeriac, never eaten it in my life before, but it was sufficiently hard enough food item to test the efficacy of the spiralizer. I am happy.One thing that some have complained about the handle breaking is because you are not supposed to use it to push the vegetable/fruit; instead, a lever is attached to the base of the handle unit to facilitate moving the product towards the cutting face.I had earlier tried using a mechanical and an electric spiralizer before I decided to get this. The electric spiralizer only allowed me to cut about 2" diameter vegetables/fruits, thereby excluding stuff like cauliflower, cabbage, celeriac, swede....

Amazing for making noodles and small and easy to store when not using.
