Know before you buy
The Zyliss Wide Peeler features an extra-wide stainless steel blade specifically designed to cover more surface area at once. This makes it significantly more efficient for peeling large, bulky produce like butternut squash, eggplants, or sweet potatoes.
Yes, the handle is constructed from a blend of wheat straw and polypropylene, which provides a sturdy, ergonomic grip. It is designed to withstand regular kitchen use while being a more sustainable alternative to traditional all-plastic handles.
Yes, it is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the sharpness of the stainless steel blade over the long term, we recommend hand washing whenever possible.
The peeler comes with a dedicated blade guard. We recommend keeping this cover on whenever the tool is stored in a drawer to protect the blade's edge and prevent accidental nicks.
The integrated sharp point is designed to easily dig out 'eyes' from potatoes or remove blemishes and imperfections from the surface of your produce without needing a separate paring knife.
