7 Potato Peelers Compared and Tested! 

I believe the gloves are for peeling boiled potatoes. Anyways, great video!!

My favorite potato peeler is some other person.

You may have spent $8 on those mitts and gotten nothing out of it, but that potato's never felt more limber!

I think the gloves are for cleaning a RAW potato and PEELING a cooked potato. If I'm remembering right. Try the potato boiled next time. Love your videos!!

Take the peel from the Rotato Express and fry it. You have a long delicious fried potatoe skin. 😋🍟

Absolutely love these videos. I have no intention of buying any products you review, but you make ordinary reviews into highly entertaining and rather professional reviews that we all love. Keep it up!

So the expensive non-functional peeler somehow ranked above the $1 functional peeler?

WHATTTTY your telling me there is a tool on a potato peeler that takes out the "eyes" on the potato I had no idea I always cut it off

You know them Tater mits might not be good at peeling, BUT I feel like they would be useful for washing potatoes super well for like baked potatoes

The seller on Amazon says this about the Tater Mitts: "boil first, skin has to be soft."

"I just spent 8 bucks to rub a potato for a few minutes" greatest quote ever man XD

“Maybe drier would be better” THAT is definitely NOT what she said.. Also, the peel is the best part of the potato.

James we have that apple peeler and your potatoes were falling off because you didn’t have them pushed on the spikes all the way 😂 also they missed spots because the tension on the blade needs to be adjusted for potatoes (light tension for apples, high for potatoes.) Potatoes are tough-skinned. That electric one performed faaaar better though!

Supposed to boil the potatoes than use the mitt but it’s ridiculous regardless. Great videos bud keep up the great work

When you were using those gloves, I think the potato said "Don't stop, I'm almost there."😂

Love your videos! Still haven't found anyone who compares to your quality and depth of reviews. Thank you.

I bought the Rotato Express for my folks and it worked so well I bought one for myself. My mom uses it to peel apples for apple pie as well.

I have a Titan peeler and I love using it, doesn't make my hands hurt or cramp.

I've had my rotator express for almost 2 years now and I love it the first blade is just now starting to dull, but it still works like a champ, I have a bad back and if you peel a lot of potatoes this is for you and it also saves your hands, Only thing I wish they had done on it as make the spikes at the bottom removable for easier cleaning

Omg I had to laugh at those tater mitts 😂😂 crazy they may be good for cleaning the potato but not peeling it.

I’m REALLY loving and appreciating the steady stream of content lately, James!! Btw that potato reminded me of the teleportation pod from The Fly 1986! Haha

The REX peeler by ZENA Swiss. Everyone is copying it now but only the original works and lasts. 100% metal, stays sharp forever and made in Switzerland.

You have to boil the potatoes for 5 minutes in order for the Tater Mitts to work

Love your videos. Thanks for posting

Your videos are so good ! I actually buy based on your reviews! :)

Have the Oxo peeler, it is ok. The handle is good when your hands ate wet for grip wh7ch is a- Peeling...

I've had the Oxo for 19 years and it still works just as well as when I bought it without any maintenance. I had the Betty Crocker for two years and threw it out. It works great initially but it wears down quickly...at least the one I had. I did pay 5.95 for the Oxo versus 2$ for the BC, though.

I would just use those tater mits to just scrub the potatoes and use a regular peeler.

potato mitts might be for cleaning the potato if you want to eat it skin on not peeling it.

I use the Rotato electric one to peel almost EVERYTHING, and if u keep peeling over the same part, you get noodles! How i make zucchini noodles. on Amazon, i paid 12$ for it! Worth it!

My favorite potato peeler is my husband... Thanks for sharing another great video. Keep up the great work. ATB : )

Today i've got 7 potato peeler *box in the corner* :APPLE PEELER

Wash every peeler in the dishwasher and try them again. Some of them will stand out after that.

How the heck did the spiralizer beat out the Betty crocker? The Betty crocker atleast WORKED while the spiralizer rarely worked

LMAO a high rise condo in Dubai!!! 😂😂😂 it's so adorable that you would think of something like that.

You missed the cleaning of the product. It is important to me anyway.

3:02 I have that one though I didn’t pay any where near that price, dam you got ripped off I payed like £4 for mine, but I actually find I use it mostly when we haven’t refilled the grated cheese and I need some to mix into stuff of for beans& cheese on toast. It also works super well on frozen chocolate for garnishing stuff. Side note it also works really well on fingernails and skin so be careful, I actually tested it on wood and it went through it just like the potato.

I thought for a second that the gloves were the hot hands 😄

I FREAKIN LOVE ME SOME FREAKIN REVIEWS

Very entertaining review video James. I am impressed by your dedication to your fans doing a 7 peeler comparison. I was so disappointed that the tater mitts failed miserably since the concept itself is pretty cool. The Magic Trio seems very nice but using it in an upward direction seems like an ER visit waiting to happen. Anyway, from what I saw, I agree with your rankings.👍

Spirallizer, you need to tighten all the nuts and bolts when you get it home but I use it for my apples and this is the best way to eat apples now. I know it’s for canning fruit but I enjoy it so much for peel the apples just wonderful. My kid loves eating apples now we have this. Great for lunch’s and a snack on the way to work. So many different options quick and easy to eat apple. A min of work for a great snack. All right I’m done I can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this product!!!

I cannot get a new blade in the rotato by starfrit. I have been trying for 1 hr. No info anywhere. Brochure description not understandable & picture not adequate. I bought it because of this review & am very unhappy

The red manual one I've had for years and it works much better than your demonstration showed. You gave it no real chance. It's adjustable. You were looking for it to fail and you made sure it did.

How do you justify the spiralizer over the dollar store one? That thing was junk. I don't think the shape of like a big red apple is gonna fare any better than the shape of a potato. At least the dollar store one worked as advertised... When you take price and application of the product, I don't see how you would choose that one over the cheap-o one. I would even almost guarantee you would choose the cheap one over that red spiralizer in the future 🧐

Love your videos. FWIW: I have the Spiralizer. Admittedly, I've only used on apples (a case for applesauce) but I struggled with it until I got it adjusted. The base can be adjusted as can the tension on the arm doing the peeling. For potatoes, I use peeler similar to the #2. I like peeling from the end. Like you, I don't trust myself to peel in both directions.

I have been using the same titan peeler for over 10 years, my dad bought one for both of us from a catalog or as seen on tv thing and I have loved it since.

Potato gloves .you have to boil the potatoes for 5 minutes . My favorite review Channel.

My wife has the best potato peeler in the world, ME.

"I feel like I'm just giving it a healthy glow" ROTFL!

We have one of those manual rotating peelers at home and you have to turn the spring tension up for potatoes. Kind of a pain!

Always love your videos, even though I would never use many of the things you review. The potato peeler gloves are simply repurposed chemical resistant ones. I deliver fuel daily, 99% of the time loading in Vegas. The ones we have are blue instead of orange. Was pretty entertained watching you try to peel potatoes with gloves I carry in my truck!

The gloves stand on their own as decent grip cleaning gloves I think. Will be interesting to see if he follows up on them and tries what people are saying they are meant for, boiled potatoes. the rotating one is flat out cool, and would be a Godsend to a family member with use of only one hand.

The tater mits only work on boiled potatoes maybe.....

That apple peeler works quite well on, well, apples. When I used to volunteer in the kindergarten near home, the kids are encouraged to bring an apple to snack on, and they all got super excited when it was snack time and one of the teachers brought out the apple peeler from the staff room. After peeling, coring and slicing, the apple would resemble a slinky and the children would have great fun playing and eating them. I must admit that I also brought my own apples just so I could have my own slinky, and for some reason it did taste nicer that way :)

James you just created the Potato El Khalifa!!

Just ordered the rotato express thanks to your review. We peel a lot of veggies and apples so this could come in really handy. Love your videos!

I got the 3 piece Kitool from Amazon , kinda like the Titan. I love it! Thank you for sharing 🤠👍

I would've put the spiralizer second to last over the Betty Crocker

Use those gloves on your feet...👣

Brilliant as always 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍. Next, try electric Potato Peelers Vs manual/other potato peelers. Also, PLEASE review potatoe chippers both manual or electric. 👍👍👍👍

Love OXO, and it is a good peeler, but also a REAL PROFIT maker. C'mon OXO! Great freakin video! 👍🏻 😉

In my opinion you got 5 / 6 backwards. I would peel more potatoes faster and more effective with the Betty Crocker peeler

Great guy!

Great to see you back on your channel. You need to burn those gloves. The Betty Crocker is great for the price.

Please don't waste those potatoes 😟😟

You should do a review on can crushers!

The apple peeler most likely isn't built for russet potatoes.

This video made me become a patreon.

Boil the potatoes obviously

The apple peeler brought back some memories

It would be helpful to have a graphic at the end with your final rankings, pros & cons and prices for each item. This would wrap up you otherwise great video very nicely.

I'd rat them the same except I'd switch 1 & 2 because you still have to use another peeler to get the top & bottom!

if you tatermit them, then use the rotato one, you could get some really nice peels to deep fry.

i never peel my my potatoes

I figured that Rotato Express would work perfectly. That design has been out probably 40+ years, the YTer EmmyMadeInJapan did a review on one called the "Daisy Stripper" from a thrift store. They'll also do apples, pears and basically anything that will fit in them perfectly other than the very top and bottom.

You should make a video with crazy Russian dude yall would kill it 💛💜❤

I like the "Y" style peelers. Actually in culinary school after our initial knife roll kit the instructors said "the best peeler is a cheap dollar store peeler, don't waste your money on a fancy peeler".. Seema accurate to me.

Love this video! I was getting all into it, even taking notes! It was then that I realized, I always keep the peels on my potatoes... LOL... Baked, fried, etc. I love that electric one. Might end up in my unnecessary kitchen gadgets cupboard! Thanks, as always!

Best peeler in the world is the Israeli potato peeler. SImple, cheap, efficient, ergonomic, works incredibly. Great for both restaurants and home kitchens.

I have been debating for months on the rotator express .... just ordered! Thanks james!!!

I just ordered the electric rotato potato peeler. GREAT VIDEO THANKS.......

We have the Rotato (ours is green and called something different) it is amazing. Peels almost anything. Fun to use and works great. Those gloves are for holding the potato while you peel it.

Do I eat potatoes? No. Do I cook at all? Nope. But I will happily watch this!

you should do a complete review of the rotato rxpress. it says it doesCucumbers, Zucchinis, Eggplant, Sweet potatoes, Lemons, Limes, Radishes, Kiwis, Peaches, Pears, Apples, Beets, Tomatoes, Turnips, Onions. id like to see that!

I've been using a pairing knife since I wss about 12 years old and I'm faster with it than a standard peeler. HOWEVER...i don't typically peel potatoes anymore. I buy Yukon Gold rather than russets, use a vegetable scrubber kind of like thos gloves to exfoliate them, cook them with the peal on and eat it. For mashed potatoes I converted to Idahoan instant because they are really good and simple.

My friend the best way is the old fashioned way good video

I’ve enjoyed my Rotato Express for nearly 5 years now the ONLY gripe I have is changing the blade. Just changed to my third blade BUT do it so infrequently I always struggle! Looked up a demo on RU-vid ‘and’ saved it for the next time!!

I’ve been using the Starfrit peeler (manual) for 20 years. It’s great. AAA rating

CORRECTION: Yes, Jodie Simpson is absolutely, dead-on correct. The Tater mitts are made exactly for washing / scrubbing clean raw potatoes and other vegetables. And does it gently and easily, but most of all cleanly remove the peel from potatoes and other vegetables that have been boiled, roasted or have otherwise had their skins softened. Like roasted Chili Peppers and bell peppers Etc. How about another test of vegetable washing/scrubbing tools/gadgets? Go grab those Tater Mitts off of the shelf and give them a proper run , doing what they are made to do, the way the way they are designed to do it?! At the very least, I believe you'll be quite impressed with them. Sincerely, Yvonne Quartuccio (via Tim Richards)

I don't expect you to go out and spend $500 on the Bteville 16 cup Peel & Dice, but the potato peeling disc really does an AMAZING job of peeling up to 7 potatoes at once in seconds! It really works!

I am considered as the gadget woman by my friends..... I have SousVide machines, Food Savers, Vacuum chamber etc. Etc......... Should have asked a commission from Starfrit for the Rotato potato I promoted and sold............. all my friends got one..... my passion in life: having my friends try my stuff....... but now because of Covid, I deliver food for people who got that awful disease.............. use my vacuum chamber to put soup in bags etc..........If I had a commission from Starfrit, It could pay for my Cybertruck........Just trying to save the planet...... with Hydro-Québec, electricity is cheap........ already have the charger......Go electric....... I know Orange Donald Duck is still promoting coal but think of your grandkids. The Rotato Potato makes it fun and I peel 10 pounds at a time....... you put them in water in the fridge........ for mashed, fries using the actifry, or if sliced use for Gratin Dauphinois using my Starfrit potatoe slicer............. With my Rotato Potato I peel lemons, oranges, mangoes etc. Etc. The brilliant thing is that if you do not like the feel of lemon zest (being francophone, perhaps I do not use the right words and my spelling is British, that is how I learned the most) I peel the lemon and then can retrieve it in one go. For my orange soup, no problemo........ when I use the orange peel, the blender takes care of it. The Potato Rotato as we call it in Québec, le RotatoPatato is by far the tool I use most in my kitchen. You could try some of my toys if you haven’t done already...... The Kitchenaid stand mixer.... 1.3 horse power, enough to pull your trailer...... my bread machine, the Zojirushi...... by far the best of all the machines I have tried over the years: Black and Decker, Cuisinart etc. The best vacuum chamber...... not sealer.......... the cost of a bag is a lot cheaper so you can justify the cost etc. Have to say that I have that apple pealer which slice at the same time....... absolutely brilliant if used for apples.

Definately do a follow up on which ones actually stayed sharp.

I gave up making mashed potatoes yesterday trying to peel with mobility issue until I saw the Rotato Express, thank you! And as a bonus feature the kids could jump rope with the peel. Ahahaha 😁

I prefer a properly designed traditional peeler, and my choice is Victorinox. They peel effortlessly, and that's because Victorinox knows how to make a good quality sharp blade. I don't do China or Taiwan for any kind of cutlery or tools. BTW the Victorinox which is made in Switzerland only costs $3.

Back in about 1983, we had a Rotato. But back then it was called a Dazey Stripper. I LOVED it as a kid. I would keep using it until the potato was just a stub and use it to make hashbrowns. I just bought a Rotato because of you, btw. Thank you :)

Tater Mits, found them better at removing feather s from Game-birds, also does a Great job scaling fish. However, cleaning root vegetables WITHOUT wasting the produce , these gloves do give a deep down scrubbing.Without all the waste.

I'd take the Betty Crocker one over all of those. $1 and did the job quite fast and easy. The one you liked would take FOREVER to peel say..10 potatoes. Betty Crocker hands down Win for me.

I have the T-shaped OXO peeler and it’s better than the standard shaped version but just ok. I have arthritis, though, so I will definitely be buying the Rotato. Especially now that I know other commenters also use it on citrus. Logic tells me apples probably work, too. Even though you have healthy hands, I like this video style because it’s a real person using a wide variety and cutting through the BS advertising!

I was highly entertained watching you trying the gloves, LOL. Though as others have said, I am sure it's for cleaning raw and peeling once they're cooked or blanched...probably pretty easy then. Maybe for a very specific use, but maybe good for an eating establishment. Fail for not having instructions, though...that would have saved you some frustration.
