OXO Good Grips Prep Y-Peeler, $17.95
The ‘classic’ of the range is ideal for use on potatoes, apples, zucchinis, and other similar vegetables.
The compact, double-sided design allows for fatigue-free peelings (important when you’ve got a bag of veggies to get through), and the Japanese stainless steel blades will stay sharp and rust-free for years.
OXO Good Grips Large Vegetable Y Peeler, $13.99
A bigger variation of the same Y-Peeler, this one is perfect for large vegetables, like big root vegetables, eggplants, and pumpkins.
The ultra-sharp blade easily penetrates the thicker skins that are common on larger vegetables.
It's also great at quickly shredding cabbage for coleslaws or stir fry, saving you from trying to chop it finely.
OXO Good Grips Asparagus Peeler, $9.50
Have you ever tried to peel asparagus with your potato peeler? And, was it a total disaster?
OXO has released a specific asparagus peeler with a specially-designed curved blade that works on both cooked and raw asparagus.
It’s created only to remove the tough exterior and leave as much of the tender inner stalk as possible.
OXO Prep Citrus Peeler, $9.50
Nothing screams summer more than a pavlova with a zest of lemon on top of it.
This peeler's double-sided blade allows for super simple peeling and zesting of your favourite citrus fruits - oranges, limes and lemons. Definitely an essential for your cooking and your baking needs.
OXO Good Grips Corn Prep Peeler, $9.50
The shark jaw-shaped stripper blade on this peeler is designed to slide under kernels and remove them with minimal effort required. The lightweight handle’s construction means you can strip several ears of corn quickly, efficiently and without tiring. Salsa, coming up!
OXO Prep Julienne Peeler, $9.50
Possibly our favourite from the entire range. Fool your family and friends into thinking you have Michelin-star skills with this julienne peeler. You can create tiny, neat strips of carrot, zucchini, cucumber and other vegetables to be used in cooking, salads or just as a fancy decorative topper.
OXO Good Grips Prep Serrated Y-Peeler, $9.95
The serrated blade on this peeler is ideal for softer fruits and veggies that are typically quite tricky to peel, such as tomatoes, peaches, nectarines and kiwifruit. This blade is sure to glide effortlessly through the more delicate skins and allow you to cook or bake whatever your heart desires.
What do people have to say?
Needless to say, these peelers have gotten rave reviews from their customers, with many saying they work "fantastically" or "like a charm".
Others called the peelers "amazing", while some dubbed them an "absolute game-changer" in the kitchen.
