This cutter won me over for purchase due to its small size and simplicity of use, however, in practice, it did not impress me. The reason is that it only cuts zucchinis, as shown in the product image, and possibly similar soft vegetables that I did not try. With harder vegetables like carrots and potatoes, you struggle a lot to rotate them and the blades quickly become dull, resulting in producing shreds. However, even with zucchinis, I encountered issues, such as the tip formed from the grinding easily getting cut and trapped at the bottom, requiring you to stop and remove it. Additionally, the lid that theoretically fits tightly on the edge of the vegetable and helps you cut it until the end often melts the vegetable and ends up useless. Finally, the residue on the blades does not clean easily. It has a brush that looks fake but does the job, however, it does not fit inside the cutter and I admit that I have already lost it. Based on the above, I don't know if it's an issue with this cutter or if a better machine is needed for spiralizing, but I would prefer something else.
