Side by Side Comparison of: Fox Run vs Tupperware

The price was unbelievably inexpensive. It arrived approximately one month after ordering. When it did arrive one peeler was broken. OMG! A little bubble wrap might have helped to keep them safe. I'm not a quitter though. Still embracing my positive persona. I washed the peeler and handled the peeler as if it were the jewel from the Titanic. I steadied myself with plump orange in hand, ready to peel the luscious fruit of my hard earned labor and what happened next...was just short of miraculous. As a single tear streamed down my cheek... I effortlessly peeled until the juices were welcomed with awe and satisfaction. Channeled my inner Rafiki, holding my wee Simba orange above my head as I chanted, hakuna matata & danced in the street. Yes, orange peeler you've found your home.

These things worked great on peeling oranges. I was expecting much for the price, but they work as well as some higher priced peelers (Pampered Chef) I've used in the past.

For the picky male, who has no fingernails and prefers not to get his fingers sticky when pealing an orange, these peelers work! It will cut through the skin about the perfect depth every time. Going once around the orange allows you to simply peel back the skin (so it isn't 100% peeling free) and rip it off. For the purpose of peeling an orange before making a smoothie with it, you will not be disappointed.So far I am still on my first one and have been able to use it at least 20 times (no signs of wear yet). Make sure that you rinse it briefly after usage so that it doesn't start having a sticky layer like mine did, which took a couple minutes to scrape off.

I love it! I wish I had known about these sooner! This peeler makes peeling an orange as easy as peeling a banana! No more orange peel under my fingernails or breaking my nails with this new peeler! I'm eating oranges much more often now because it's so quick and clean to peel with these! It works great for peeling grapefruit too! The only time I have any problem with it is if I have an orange with a very thick peel.There's lots of different ways to peel with it. You can experiment with different ways. The easiest for me is to run the peeler from top to bottom down four sides of the orange, then pull down the peel in quarters.

Who would have thought a little plastic thing the size of a ring could peel and orange so quickly? I love this thing!

These work really great, are small and store easily, and wash really easily. I have always hated peeling oranges and would usually not eat them. With these I can peel large and small oranges without a lot of fuss.

These are what I remember as kid we used to peel oranges. need to get some more again.

Finally found these -- the greatest invention for peeling citrus! Knives and fingernails are annoying and sloppy and depressing -- I never sought out the fruit basket very much. This weird little tool offers a pleasant experience while peeling citrus, thus I eat (probably too much) grapefruit and oranges.

My mom used to sell Tupperware when I was young and this was one of my favorites. I moved out and alas - the peeler did not come with me. I had gone back to peeling oranges by hand which works. My family however are not as fond of getting the juice on their hands or peeling off the white bitter parts. I would get an orange and ask if anyone else wanted one while I was in the frige and everyone said no. Once it was peeling and I was sitting down though, everyone was taking my orange. So I bought the handy gadget and now everyone peels their own.

I had one of these that I got as a free prize at a Tupperware party about 30 years ago. Through all my moves and raising 4 kids, I still had it all that time, until about 4 years ago when I moved the last time, I had to leave many things behind. I can honestly say, this is one of the few things I really missed more than many others, lol! This peels oranges better than anything else and I recently found out that Amazon has many Tupperware products that I thought you could not get any longer or only at a party. I ordered this 3 pack and it came really fast and I can't tell you how excited I was when it came. I showed it to my husband and he had never seen anything that worked so good to peel an orange. Sometimes the greatest pleasures really DO come from the simplest things! I would recommend this product to anyone who likes oranges and doesn't like picking it apart with your fingers. It peels them super fast and lasts forever as long as you don't lose it or leave it behind! :)

When I was a little kid, I remember my mom carrying this citrus peeler to work almost everyday. It worked beautifully in creating deep gashes in the orange peel so you can work your fingers in and peel the orange easily. Almost decades later, after my parents moved and my mom disposed of many of her beloved kitchenwares, I had the toughest time finding it in a local gourmet restaurant supply shop. I described the citrus peeler as looking like "a toothbrush with its head cut off" because that's exactly what it looks like. I definitely got a weird look from the store employee who lead me to a chintzy, over-priced, bulky metal citrus peeler...not what I wanted. Thank goodness we have the internet.Only downside is you'll release some citrus oils when you're running the "toothbrush head" through the orange peel, so be careful that you're not using the peeler near something that will stain, or on items that have printed ink that will lift off. Citrus oil is pretty powerful stuff (See: Goo Gone). Also, if you press the "toothbrush head" too hard/deep into the orange peel, you'll slice right into the orange segments inside, which might become a mess.

I made 3 separate orders with Amazon for peelers. Two were for a single Peeler. This order was for three peelers. The other two were for a single peeler with a scraper on the back of their head.There were only 2 Reviews available for the three transaction and providers so you have extra info. this transaction earned all 5 starsAmazon did a great job with this and 1 of my other orders for peelers.This order of 3 peelers is great for the uses I have for them. I travel quite a bit and now keep 1 in my vehicle, 1 in my tackle box and 1 in my always ready to travel bag, for some times I don't do the driving.I found the quality adequate for my need. The price was great; however shipping was a little high, but not anywhere as much as I have spent on gas looking for this product.This order was the first to arrive of the 3 orders.The second order arrived the next day comprised of one intact peeler which has seen lots of use and held up exceptionally well.Several days later the 3rd. order arrived comprised of 1 peeler with crushed scraper and head. It was damaged, I believe it happened in transport but could possibly have been prevented by using a little bubble paper.I wrote the provider and amazon a letter, never heard a word back from provider. Amazon sent email to return item. Printed sticker for mail and returned item.Sent peeler back @ my expense.Never got a replacement, refund or anything.I made this 3rd purchase for my dive bag which replaces my travel bag when Diving is a possibility on a trip. That is why I purchased this extra peeler for my dive bag.Forgot about item till November when I went to Isla Mojeres Mexico and there was no peeler in my dive goody bag. With my dive schedule and everything else forgot about it again till today when I got Amazon's request to rate the product & service. For a book I had ordered from Mexico.I noticed in my history that only two of the purchases were listed so I will put all this info on these two reviews and treat the other one which is a single peeler purchase as the disputed trans action.

works well

Cutting blade is not long enough to cut completely through thick skinned oranges/grapefruit.

Great item!

They do what they are supposed to do. A little awkward the first time. You just need to figure out the best way for you to hold it. You can hold it a couple ways. Very portable to take along or send in a lunch so you can peel a fresh orange or grapefruit.

works as described..keeps that darn peel off hands and out of my nails. very inexpensive. very small though so easy to lose. I think they thought of that cause they send two in a package

We eat alot of oranges and citrus. This is a safe alternative for kids. We love it!

These are especially great in prison/ real life and you wish a mofo would...

These peelers are handy. When I purchased them, it said there would be three colors. My package only contained black.

Works okay but I prefer the Sunkist citrus peeler I had before. After years of use the sharp part used to score the peel broke off. Bought these as a replacement. The Tupperware peeler seems to spray a fine citrus mist every time you score the peel. I think it's because the part that does the scoring is thicker and not as sharp.

These are effective citrus peelers. Open a seam from top to bottom back to top with the fatter end using the pointed part to pierce the rind. Repeat to make four sections. Use the blade end to slip under the peel to separate the rind from the flesh. Make sure you are also under the white pith.I must have had my original ones for 25 years. They got lost somewhere. Glad I could get them here.

I love this peeler as I don't have to get a knife to score the peel and cut the flesh of the orange segments. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because of all the orange oil it sprays when you are using the peeler.

I had purchased another peeler from a different company and the end did not hold up very well...i use the peelers all of the time, esp in winder for grapefruit and oranges...these peelers are sturdy and do the job I need done...they make peeling fruits a lot more a-pealing....I would recommend them to anyone who needs a simple tool to do the job.

Works

Advertised as set of 2. Expected 2 to be same. 1 was as pictured, other was not a complete ring for finger but rather about 1/3 ring on each side with open center - very awkward & unable to use. Initially, I thought 1 was broken until better inspection. Took nearly 6 weeks to arrive from China.

I don't know who's finger is supposed to fit in that circle, but mine isn't even close! That being said, hold it differently and it works very well.

its ok but not as good as it seemed

They work, Quite a bit smaller than I thought they would be. Also VERY cheaply made, You can probably find them at the flea market or dollar store for way, way less money.

thought it would be a lot better than it was. Used it a few times and then it got tossed into the junk drawer never to be seen again lol.

I have a Tupperware peeler from many years ago and it is very sturdy, just getting a little ragged around the edges. So I thought I would get a new one. These are much lighter in weight and the peeling end is way more flexible than it needs to be. I preferred the stiffer model.

All three are same color. It is alternative to cutting orange into sections.

I bought these because my pampered chef one was getting a little worn out and these were a great priced add-on item. However, they are too sharp and inflexible and cut into the orange unlike the pampered chef's. Pampered chef's is a little more blunt and curved on the peeling end to help prevent unwanted gouging. I've reverted back to using the pampered chef or my fingers. These tend to sit in the drawer.

Not what I expected. Too messy and cumbersome to use. Rather spend a bit more and get an electric one.

These peelers are alright. I have one from Pampered Chef and they are much better. These take more elbow grease to get the peels off.

Yep. They work just as I planned they would. Dont really know how to rate this product. It does its job as expected

Blade is short and barely cuts through more than a mandarine orange. Got them for the child in hope it would assist him with making his own snacks, but it barely slices the skin on anything larger than a 2in or so orange.

Poor quality product!

Very thin and not a really good quality. Very slow delivery because it shipped from an Asian country.

clever

Just a gimmick

cuts the peel okay but the plastic is not tough enough to raise the peel after it is scored.

These peelers have it about half right. The hook end is just like the original ones from, I guess, Sunkist. The problem is with the other end of the peeler. It's flat, rather than curved, so it doesn't easily peel the orange. It works, just not as good as a curved peeler does.

Use the sharp end to cut the skin and the dull end to pry the skin off. I tried this on a naval orange and found it harder to use than a knife.....and it cut my hand. I think it will work better on fruits whose skin isn't as thick as a naval orange. I know people that swear by these gadgets, but I didn't have a great experience.

The end of this tool which should be used to get under the skin needs to be curved to conform to the shape of an orange. Straight tip makes it a challenge to use.

Good idea. Problem - simply does not work. I'm glad I didn't pay too much.It scores the peel ,but does not go deep enough to actually peel it, caca.

Not necessary.

NOT AS PICTURED

The only reason I am giving this one star is because it looks much bigger in the picture and were smaller than expected.

It doesn't do the job

Very flimsy. Bed, Bath and Beyond's brand was much stronger and worked like a charm.

I only received 1 citrus peeler, not 3 like described in the description.

There are no instructions for use. I assume the round end is for cutting and the blade end is for peeling. The round end is not capable of cutting, the blade end is too narrow for peeling. Using Knife for dicing or peeling is much better than this useless stick.

This dealer is a scammer............. She is un responsive and will not answer any of my attempts to have my items sent -SHE GGOT HER MONEY- But I GOT NO ITEMS...........LET THE BUYER BE WARE...............
