Product Description
1871296030 Apple Corer

Amazon.com Review
This 8-1/2-inch apple corer is just one of the high-quality Profi Plus tools WMF makes for every conceivable kitchen task. Plunging the sharp teeth of its round, business end through an apple to precisely remove its core is made easier by the heft of the corer's handle. Contemporary European in style, the apple corer is made of 18/10 stainless steel and is beautifully balanced, with a satin-finish, cylindrical handle and a heavy-duty hanging loop. Seamless construction ensures cleaning ease. This tool is dishwasher-safe, durable, and a joy to use for serious cooks and novices alike. --Fred Brack

5 out of 5 stars Eat More of Your Apple!   June 12, 2004
Rodney Bogardus (Buffalo, NY)

If you are like me and you're someone who can be finicky about food texture, such as eating too close to an apple's core, then this beautifully crafted WMF Profi Plus Stainless Steel Apple Corer is an ideal and utilitarian addition to your kitchen utensil collection! I received my corer almost 2 months ago, and I find that not only do I eat more apples because they're easier to consume without the core, but I also eat more of each apple as the unappetizing core, and its somewhat hard surrounding, is completely removed with one thrust of the WMF corer.

Of all the WMF utensils in my ever-growing collection, this one has to be my favorite! It looks great and is available at a decent price, too! You won't be disappointed!


3 out of 5 stars Beautiful Sub-Par Quality   May 3, 2004

I have become a huge fan of WMF kitchen appliances and ordered this corer to add to my growing collection. The corer is a beautiful addition to my kitchen. The workmanship is wonderful and I do not at all regret the purchase considering the price was very reasonable. However, if you are looking for a functional corer, this one is lacking when it comes to hard apples. The cores get stuck inside and are incredibly difficult to get out. Also, if your hands are wet, as is usually the case when cooking, the grip on the corer becomes very slippery. In addition, the handle is too thin to be comfortable. For softer jobs, like pears, however, the corer was fine, though not great. I would think an OXO with their traditional rubber gripped handle corer would be more functional.

I still believe that WMF makes the most beautiful utensils and for an appliance that doesn't get used too often in my kitchen, such as a corer, that's qualification enough for me!
