Amazon.com Review:
One second is all it takes to yield perfectly cut fruit slices with this tool by Oxo. Also a great tool for pears, the apple divider's soft, oversize rubber handles relieve and absorb the pressure from your hands for a nearly effortless cut. Positioned at an angle upward from the blade base, the handles ensure that hands and fingers have ample clearance from tabletops and cutting boards. Stainless steel makes the blades easy to clean and dishwasher-safe.

The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip, flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof--wet or dry--as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

- Pretty good, but not great
I like the design with the raised handles, but the cutting edge is flush with the plastic frame so the apples don't get get cut cleanly all the way through to the bottom. That means you need to turn the tool over and push the partially cut pieces through individually.
For that reason alone, it's no faster than cutting and coring with a paring knife, but it's a good alternative. I use it to give my cutting hand a rest.

I love this! It is so easy to use and cuts through apples like butter! I have never had one before, however my daughter loves cut up apples and this beats coring by hand.

- Can't core all the way through
The corer doesn't cut all the way through the apple.. so I usually end up just breaking off the slices. Also, the handles flexes a little too much, wish it was stiffer. I'm afraid in a few months, I'll break off one the handles.

- Oxo mango corer
Save your money! As a long time mango lover I was happy to see this product. After several tries I am no longer happy. If you have a stringy mango it is impossible to cut. If you have a nice firm mango it is hard to cut. It just does not work as it is cumbersome and one is unable to press down on the fruit itself to get it through the cutter. I do not recommend buying the mango corer. (The picture of the apple corer is not the product reviewed)
