Usability

Pros:

  • "I find this spiralizer very easy to use."
  • "It's easy to use and clean and there are several options for sizes of 'spirals'."
  • "Setup, use and cleanup was super easy and my 7 year old daughter enjoyed helping out turning the crank."
  • "I used it the day it arrived without any instructional videos...so easy!"
  • "It is so easy and a great design."
  • "The interchangeable blades are easy to swap out without having to worry too much about cutting yourself."
  • "It is very easy to use and so quick."

Cons:

  • "I have used this gadget several times, but the outcome and results have been mediocre at best. It is over complicated and cumbersome."
  • "The suction cups did NOT hold the product tightly to the stainless steel table while we were attempting to use it."
  • "The first time I used the spiralizer, it was a bit difficult to keep it from 'crawling' on the surface."
  • "If you tried to spiralize a carrot, sweet potato, or butternut squash, the darn thing started bending and straining the unit."
  • "The grip to hold it tears up the veggies and thus doesn’t work."
  • "Much of my zucchini was turned into mush and did not spiralize."
  • "I'm still trying to figure out how to use it more efficiently as it is somewhat awkward to hold and spiral."

Design and Storage

Pros:

  • "This is also compact enough to fit into my already over packed apartment cupboards."
  • "The blades fit either into the machine itself or into the extra caddy, and all stacks together easily to go back in the box."
  • "The other 2 extra blades come in a nice acrylic holding case."
  • "Has storage for blades in the spiralizer and in a plastic holder which is nice."
  • "All blades have a storage spot."
  • "I like the clear plastic storage for the 2 extra blades, it fits neatly between the veggie holder and installed bladed for compact storage."
  • "I appreciate having the on-board storage and additional storage caddy for the blades."

Cons:

  • "Not sure why the manufacturer would make storage for all the blades."
  • "Also, there are two extra blades which is great but there’s no where to store them on the contraption itself."
  • "While this comes with a 'container' to hold the other blades, it would have been truly appreciated if the holder could have been incorporated into the stand to hold all the blades."
  • "I wish there was a larger size for the noodles... 5.5 mm just isn't quite big enough."
  • "I wish there were room to store all the blades, but it’s fine. I still love this."
  • "Only thing I don't like are the extras cartridges for the other blades."
  • "I wish the extra blades were stored within the device."

Performance

Pros:

  • "Now have 5 very sharp blade choices and lots of great recipes."
  • "The price is excellent; the suction without complaint."
  • "Highly recommend!"
  • "Brieftons spiralizers typically produce 3-4 foot-long food spirals, which are beautiful to see coming out of the unit."
  • "I am very glad that I decided on this one because it performs exactly as described."
  • "The Brieftons Spiralizer is absolutely awesome with sweet potatoes."
  • "The spiralizer worked to perfection."

Cons:

  • "There is water trapped inside of after washing."
  • "The suction cup that makes it stationary on the counter releases itself every 5 seconds."
  • "But the company definitely sent an used item. Upon opening the box, i saw dirty fingerprints on the spare blazers and a hair. Gross! Very bad practice from the seller!"
  • "The product itself is okay for the price. The material feels cheap, but it gets the job done."
  • "It doesn’t work on mangoes and instructions are limited."
  • "They have 2 that go in the bottom of the unit and they fall out because they are not held in place firmly."
  • "Doesn't do as well with larger vegs, you'll need to cut them in half."
