Customer Reviews of Vacu Vin Pineapple Slicer
Customer Rating: Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5
Summary: Pineapple corer does the job
Comment: Overall, this product works very well. There is some waste on the bigger pineapples, but in return you retain all the juice and most of the pineapple is sliced quickly.

Customer Rating: Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5
Summary: Some pros, some cons
Comment: The pros:
1. Your pineapple is sliced and ready to eat in about a minute. 2: Kids love to drink the leftover juice in the shell with a straw or I fill it with supplement juice if they want more. 3. The shell would be great to use for drinks for a tropical party theme.

The cons of the pineapple slicer are:
1. The slices are not very attractive if you want to use them for guests. It cores the pineapple in a curling fashion so the slices are thin and round. Essentially, they look like you just took them out of a can.
2. The slicer is only one size, so if you get a pineapple that is large a lot of the "meat" is left behind and is difficult to get out.

In all, the slicer is a great tool if you are looking for something quick and easy. The slicer is not great if you are looking to display the fruit for guests.

Summary: Pineapple Slicer is a Whiz!
Comment: Vacu Vin's Pineapple Slicer is very easy to use and leaves a nice hull for a fancy drink or serving piece. The slicer and a pineapple make a nice hostess gift, and can be made to look festive enough for holiday or special occasion "gifting" for very few dollars. Thumbs up! I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Summary: Did as advertised, but broke after 4 pineapples
Comment: The product performed as advertised for the first 4 pineapples but
the turning handle broke on the 5th pineapple.

Nice to use a couple of times for fun, but not worth the $10.

Summary: I love this little item!
Comment: It's easy to use, and I love that you can use the 'shell' of the pineapple for either a centerpiece or 'fruit bowl' to put your pineapple and other fruit in. I would recommend highly!!

Choosing Appliance -> Dishwasher
Choose a dishwasher with sturdy compression springs in the door. Also look for tough, lightweight nylon or graphite racks with cushioned tips that protect glassware and cookware. Weimer recommends choosing a model with a rack design that provides the largest, most flexible interior space and is configured for your belongings, including odd-shaped pieces.
Choosing Appliance -> Non-stick Pans
We recommend having at least 1 high quality non-stick saute pan. It makes cooking eggs and delicate items like fish a breeze. It also cuts down on the amount of fat necessary to effectively saute. The best place to buy such pans is from a restaurant supplier.

Tips How to Maintain Appliance -> Maximize the efficiency of appliances
You can also maximize the efficiency of appliances you already own through regular maintenance and tune-ups and system upgrades. Examples of some things that you can do are:
  • Check air filters in heating and cooling systems monthly during the seasons they are in use and clean and replace them as necessary.
  • Clean air vents, baseboards, and radiators regularly and keep them unrestricted by furniture, carpets, or drapes.
  • Release trapped air from hot water radiators once or twice a season by opening the valve until nothing but water comes out.
  • Follow prescribed maintenance (e.g., maintaining certain water levels in steam heat systems).
  • Install an insulating jacket on your hot water heater, insulate hot water pipes, and lower the water heater temperature.
  • Clean refrigerator coils yearly and maintain internal temperatures between 36 degrees F (2.2 degrees C) and 38 degrees F (33 degrees C) for the refrigerator compartment and between 0 degrees F (17.8 degrees C) and 5 degrees F (15.0 degrees C) for the freezer compartment.
  • Move the refrigerator if it is currently located near the stove or dishwasher.
  • Regularly defrost refrigerators that do not have a completely automatic defrost capability to eliminate ice build-up on interior coils.
  • Clean dryer filters after each use or as necessary.
