OXO 3-In-1 Avocado Slicer – Green

Very easy to use but only when the avocado is definitely ripe enough! The part you use to scrape the avocado gets very congealed so I usually end up using the slicer and the blade to remove the seed then just use a spoon for the rest instead! A handy little tool but I’d say not absolutely necessary!

This OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer so completely outperforms every other avocado tool that we have bought multiples of this one. We own more than one at all times, so that if one is in the dishwasher or in our kid’s rooms, we still have one that is clean and ready. The plastic blade doesn’t crack or split the pit. The pit claw works every single time and doesn’t strip out. And the slicer makes convenient wedges for sandwiches or for blending into guacamole. We have also bought this tool as a gift for family and friends and have been pleasantly surprised by how much they love the gift and how often they use it.

It works well for cutting around the avacado and getting the pit out very efficiently. The scoop/slicer works well when the avacado is not overly ripe. Nice tool and good value.

Pratique pour couper l’avocat en deux et enlever le noyau mais concernant l’ustensile pour faire des belles tranches c’est moins évident. L’avocat doit pas être trop mûr

SO we do like it and it does work well. the two things I’ll say is DO NOT put it in the dishwasher! The metal blades that grip and remove the seed/pit got a bit of surface rust on them. No biggie, I cleaned it off and it’s not been an issue since with hand washing. Other issue is, it doesn’t really slice the avocado like it shows. Maybe the ones we’re trying are too ripe, but it tends to push and mush it as opposed to actually slicing it. That said, it’s a handy tool and we use it often.

Slicing the avocado and removing the pit – fantastic! Both work wonders, so I am happy about it. But the plastic part that is supposed to remove the avocado half from the peel and slice it does not work at all, unless the avocado is so far from ripe it’s not that great to eat. Photo shows to the left the avocado removed and sliced with the tool – you can see it gets mushy and unappealing – on the right, two halves removed with a spoon and sliced with a knife. So, basically the tool would be perfect either if the plastic cutter would have been absent, or if it had metal little blades instead of plastic to slice through the flesh.

Minskar risken för skärskador pga av att knivseggen är av plast. Man bör dock ha klart för sig att den fungerar olika bra på olika storlekar av avokados.
