![Pineapple Corer and Slicer [Reinforced sharp blades & Heavy duty & Durable], Yhtawoo Pineapple Cutter Corer Peeler, Stainless](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61GMHo45asL._AC_UL165_SR165,165_.jpg)
I really thought this was going to be some piece of junk that didn't work but the price was so low I thought I'd try it anyway. If by some miracle it did work then maybe I'd be able to slice a fresh pineapple in less than a day.
By some miracle it does work and with this tool it takes about a minute to slice a pineapple. I just finished using it for the first time and am pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to use. You just cut the ends off of your pineapple, center the corer/slicer over the core and press lightly while turning the handle. It wants to slice the pineapple and only needs a little encouragement from you. I had placed a plastic tuperware container in the sink and placed the pineapple in the container; I recommend you take some measure to capture the juices that will flow out.
So far I've just used it the one time. The pineapple I sliced was a little too big for the device so the hollowed out shell still had good pineapple left inside. I just sliced downwards through the shell to open it up and used a knife to carve out a couple of slices from the inside until I was satisfied. The procedure easily added another 30 seconds to the process so I guess it took about a minute and a half in total and then I was finished.
By far the most difficult part was figuring out what to do after the device had cored the pineapple and I was left with a corer that was wrapped in pineapple and stuffed with the pineapple core. If I hadn't thrown away the directions a month ago then this part might have been easier; as it was I sliced vertically through the slices to remove them. That's when I noticed that the handle has two buttons which, when depressed simultaneously, will remove the handle from the rest of the corer thus allowing the sliced pineapple to slide off and the core to slide out. Oh well now I know.
The other thing to be aware of is that if the device is not centered correctly you will get some juicy pineapple attached to the core section and some tough core attached to the sliced pineapple rings. This happened to me in a very minor way and next time I'll know better. Anyway I noticed that the top part of the core tastes good and it's only the bottom end of the core that was really tough, at least with the pineapple I used today. I don't remember how much of the core was edible with hand-peeled and cored pineapples; I just remember that the task was time-consuming, painful, and messy, and resulted in some pretty mutilated looking chunks of alleged pineapple. The rings that come off this slicer/corer are as regular as the rings from a can.
I hope you like your peeler/corer as much as I and I hope this review helps with your decision to purchase.
Peace...

It actually works
I just tried this peeler for the first time, and it definitely works. The steps are: - Cut the top (leaves) and bottom of the pineapple - Push the peeler from the top, while rotating it. Make sure the center is aligned with the pineapple core - Keep pushing/rotating until you reach the other end - Pull the peeler out. It will take out all the pineapple slices - Press the buttons on the handle. This will detach the handle and allow you to take out the slices. The core will remain inside the peeler - Enjoy your pineapple! The tool is really effective and easy to use, but be aware that: - Some pineapple "meat" will go to waste, especially in the center area, compare to a cut using knife - It is difficult to align the tool with the core all throughout the pineapple, so you might end up having some part of the core in your slices Even with those issues, the fact that I can now cut a pineapple in just a few seconds with such an inexpensive tool makes it totally worth it. I do not think I will go back to using knife!
