Starfrit Rotato Express Electric Peeler

Yes, the Rotato Express is designed to accommodate various shapes. It works best on firm, relatively uniform produce, but it can handle potatoes and sweet potatoes easily as long as they are secured properly on the prongs.

It offers both options. You can use the included 6V adapter for a direct power connection or insert 4 AA batteries if you prefer to use it cordlessly.

No, the Rotato Express is not dishwasher safe. The main unit and blades should be hand-washed to maintain the integrity of the motor and the sharpness of the stainless steel blades.

The peeler is designed to remove only the skin, minimizing waste. It is calibrated to peel thinly, preserving as much of the fruit or vegetable flesh as possible.

The thumb knife is a small, handheld tool included for detail work. It is perfect for removing potato eyes or blemishes that the automated arm might miss during the peeling process.

The unit comes with two spare blades stored in the base, which should last for a significant amount of time. If you eventually need more, Starfrit sells replacement blade sets specifically designed for the Rotato Express.
