THE ORIGINAL Premium Stainless Steel Handles Vegetable Spiral Slicer, Zucchini Noodle Pasta Spaghetti Maker, Create Both with Recipe eBook and Cleaning Brush Included

A bit of labour involved. Just make sure the veggies are firm and fresh. Loved it!

I had another handy "zoodle" making gadget that wasn't really handy. It took a lot of force and cleaning was a pain so it sat in my cupboard collecting dust until I eventually threw it out. I missed having zoodles though so I went on the hunt for another one. I was using the "pinto" version before and now I feel like I've upgraded to a Lexus version without paying too much for it. The Original Zoodle Slicer - Complete Vegetable Spiralizer is in a class of it's own. The blades are SUPER sharp (think mandoline slicer sharp), the "plug"/guard has deep enough grooves to grip onto whatever you're trying to noodle or ribbon which makes it super easy to twist into the blades. Oh, it has two sides ribbon or noodle/spiral. I'm noodling everything from cucumbers, zucchini, sweet potatoes, beets, carrots... you name it I'm trying it out. Then when you're done, it comes with this tiny brush to clean it all out. I think I should point out that I was NOT paid for this review nor did I receive the item for free in order to provide a review. I really am that happy with my purchase.

This is my first Zoodler, and I've literally had it for three days, so I'll have to update this review down the line. But first impression? This thing is aces, man. I do recommend using a fork stabbed into the back end of the zucchini to get the most out of it. The blades are nice and sharp, the shape is easy to handle, and the resulting size of the zoodles (also: zoodles is a super fun word to say, I recommend saying it a lot) is excellent.I have to admit: I was wary about buying a specific kitchen tool that does one thing if I could use a standard tool to get a similar result. We'd been shredding zucchini with a box grater, and it was tasty and all, because zucchini is tasty, but the zoodler result is vaaastly better. Thicker and more noodle-like. No, zucchini will not taste like spaghetti all of a sudden, and anyone who tells you differently is a dirty liar. But it's still delicious, and tastes AMAZING under marinara sauce. No lie, I strongly recommend it. And this thing.

Bought this squash noodle maker after spending $5 on a package of pre-cut zucchini noodles. I just figured wow that's expensive! I can make these myself! I used this as soon it arrived. Loved it! Super easy to use. It does leave quite a chunk of leftover zucchini at the top but it's so cheap at the produce market I didn't mind it. I'll just use the leftover piece and cut it into cubes and at it to my eggs.Anyway....so excited to get to have spaghetti without the carbs! The noodles are the perfect size and sauté up really nicely in olive oil. The peeler was a bonus (cause mine had recently broke and I really needed one). Plus the small included brush is perfect for cleaning out the blade. Really glad I purchased this product.

This is my first zoodler and I love it! I bought it about 8 months ago and I use it all the time. For 8 months, it is still in good shape. I used to use a small Julienne Peeler to make zucchini noodles and it would take me forever but it now takes me a minute and the more I use the zoodle slicer, the better I get at it.I have only tried zucchini with the zoodle slicer but I really like how it allows me to make the noodles quickly and easily without having to buy a large spiralizer machine. I usually cook the noodles in a skillet with some olive oil, salt and pepper and top it with either a tomato sauce or pesto. It's really easy and although it's not spaghetti it's still a delicious and healthy meal.The only con is that I sometimes find it hard to clean the blades. However, it does comes with a little brush which makes it a little easier. I would still recommend this product though!

Easy to use. Easy to clean as long as you use the little cleaning brush that comes with this. Otherwise food gets stuck in the blades and you do not want to use your fingers or a sponge as they'll get torn up. Even though it comes with a spiked lid to push the ends of veggies through baldes when they're too short to hold, I find at least an inch of veggie is wasted. The lid just can't push in that last inch. And that may be a reason some folks may want to spend more and get the crank kind of spiraler.
