"Easy to Use."
Holds comfortably in the hand and the guard is a useful addition. I find it produces thin strips quite well, although a few sometimes stick together but come apart when agitated. It is good practise to lay a carrot horizontally on a worktop surface, hold the thick end between thumb and forefinger and pull the peeler along the vegetable. To hold a fruit or vegetable in ones hand is liable to be dangerous and unlikely to produce a good result. I've used this on various veggies both right and left handed without any problem. Recommended for making spring rolls and alike.
