Find Best Price at Amazon"They work as described, edges are not sharp, I pre-cut my grapefruits, these will not cut well, but they are angled to get the fruit out better than a traditional spoon (although I think making them even more narrow would be beneficial)."
"They may not be really high quality, but I think they are a great value and make eating grapefruit a little easier."
"Has had difficulty finding just the right slicing action on spoon for good section dividing."
"They are spoons with serrated edges, designed to make eating grapefruit easier."
"Yep, they're grapefruit spoons."
"They're hardly the Queens Silver but the spoon's edges make short work of getting fruit off rind."
"Can't believe how hard it was to find grapefruit spoons!"
"They work fine to get the grapefruit out, but the serration goes up too high on the sides and hurts my lips when I actually use them to eat the grapefruit."

"I have two sets of 4 grapefruit spoons already, one Onida and one cheap set that isn't very good."
"The serration portion on the spoon is also not symmetrical, that is to say that most of mine simple have very small "bumps" on the left side (for example) and have the serrated teeth on the other side of the spoon."
"I used to have years ago a set of 4 grapefruit spoons that I loved. Great for avocados, have even used them to scoop out sweet potatoes."
"I didn't think I liked the quality at first, but they are amazing!"
"Grapefruit, a pithy, juicy, "segmented" fruit that is difficult to eat when cut in half with sections in cross section. Like most things, I bet the idea is good, the prototype was good and then the green eyeshade dudes dumbed it down to a less than70 percent effective tool."
"You could buy these from the dollar store...In fact, you can probably buy better ones from the dollar store that aren't weapons to your mouth."
"Amazon won't allow you to return either.....pay a little more for the Norpro 1280 Stainless Steel Grapefruit Spoons, Set of 4."

"I wanted a Black brush for my black kitchen and this looks good and works well...I have found that OXO product is most often good quality and design."
"I like this vegetable brush because it's soft enough that it will clean your vegetables but it won't entirely rub the surface off like some with harder bristles."
"When I started making my own baby food, I wanted to get serious about actually cleaning my vegetables instead of halfheartedly rubbing them under running water."
"The silk gets tangled in the bristles, and needs to be cleaned out thoroughly afterwards."
"It's a good vegetable brush that is the right size to fit in your hand to clean your food."
"Bristles are perfect, not too soft and not too hard."
"I’m a 6’+ tall man with correspondingly large hands."

Just perfect pineapple and an empty pineapple shell with almost no meat left inside."
"It literally took a push of the hand and the whole pineapple was spiraled into thin rings."
"UPDATE: I discovered that the pineapple core does not become lodged in the cylinder if one doesn't drill all the way down to the bottom of the pineapple."
"I love pineapple but I feel really bad about wasting so much of the fruit and the juice when I cut it with a knife."
"It makes clean slices around the inner edge of the pineapple and, with a bit of pressure applied (just leaning a little into it), cuts/slices through the pineapple with ease. This product makes cutting up a pineapple an extremely easy process with minimal effort (much easier than just using a blade to cut all the edges off and then cut it up by hand)."
"Liked this so much I gave one to my daughter-in-law for her birthday."
"I purchase alot of pineapple to freeze and I was hoping this would make cutting them easier."
"Sharp and works well, but its hard to store in a drawer."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The sharp micro blades glide smoothly over the fruit, removing only the thinnest, outermost layer of the skin where the best flavor is, while leaving behind the deeper, more bitter part of the rind. Just give it a gentle squeeze, and the zester slides right in, protecting the delicate blades and you! Though I have put it in the dishwasher a few times, I usually just give it quick, stout spray with hot water to clean it."
"Know also that I spend an almost obscene amount of money every year buying the latest and greatest cooking toys. It is elegantly designed (should be considered for inclusion in the MOMA collection - especially the one with the yellow handle!"
"+ Very sharp micro blades - less effort for you and does the job very well. + it replaced my garlic press, turning whole cloves into mash. + about 1ft long, good enough space to grind. + can be placed horizontally on plate/bowl edges. + beautiful colors and design. + great price. Cons: - Very sharp micro blades, be careful not to reach with your fingers against the blades. (remember it can easily turn ginger to mash). - Cleaning - it's the main drawback, but it's worth the results, turning any food to mash or zest."
"An easy five stars from me for this super grater for it's ease of handling, easy and even removal of zest, little-storage-room-required size, and reasonable-for-performance price. Who would've thought that needing zest would cause one to smile?"
"I never like grinding lemon or orange zest as I can easily grind too much or ended up with uneven areas and some i can't get to."
"High quality, grates evenly and easily."
"But, the fact that the green handle can be found instantly in the often cluttered kitchen utensil drawers is the best."

"I had previously bought a mostly yellow and green one from that expensive kitchen store WS."

"I drink lemon juice every day and this little guy comes in handy on a daily basis."
"It fits the lemons perfect, and it is so easy to squeeze."
