Just got one of these from Linen & Things (made by Progressive
Internation Corp.).

Got a few Grannysmith apples and...

Slap me!!!

It looks like a Rube Golderg contraption, but it works!

The slicer can be cancelled by locking it out of range and/or the corer,
by removing it.

It probably does other things like peel potatoes and tomatoes (as long as
they're firm enough).

Like a blind flash of comprehension, I have seen the light!

P.S. Yeah, yeah, keep the oncoming train comments to a minimum. --A

Amen! I bought a couple of these when Lechters was going out of
business, and after I tried it, went back and bought 4 more. I wish I
had bought more, at the price it was going for it was an incredible
bargain.

They are indeed life-altering :> Just be careful to get the
apple-holder aligned with the corer. I stripped the teeth of one
somehow.

Lead me not into temptation... I can find it myself!
