Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of the Progressive International Jumbo Potato Cutter
Customer Review: works if you microwave the potatoes first
Summary: 1 Stars
After buying similar product for $7 @ Harbor Freight and having the metal frame bend in half the second time we used it, we thought this plastic frame looked more substantial, and would actually be large enough to put a whole potato in it without cutting it in half. The size is great, you can use larger potatoes, and the plastic frame held up OK. However, first try we put a sweet potato in it & it immediately broke the 1/2" blade attachment. Then we tried a regular potato with the 1/4" blade attachment. It worked after very carefully jamming the potato into the blades and slowly pressing the handle down. I hope we can get a replacement blade, because it's not worth the return shipping & hassle to replace the whole thing. Save up your money and get a professional quality french fry cutter for around $80.
After posting the above review, I emailed Progressive about the broken blades, they said they don't recommend cutting sweet potatoes in this device, and they sent me a replacement blade. While waiting for it, we used the smaller blade on regular potatoes and it broke, too. From now on, we microwave the potatoes for 1-2 minutes and then it works fine. It DOES open up enough to put very large potatoes in without having to cut them in half. The customer service people were accommodating via email, but I would be reluctant to purchase another one.
