Norpro Grip-Ez Fruit Corer/Wedger

Yes, while it is optimized for apples, the stainless steel blades are sturdy enough to core and wedge other firm fruits like pears or even large potatoes.

The handle features a Santoprene coating, which is a soft, rubber-like material designed specifically to provide a non-slip, cushioned grip that is easier on the hands than hard plastic or metal.

This tool cuts fruit into eight uniform wedges in a single motion. Because the blades are fixed in a rigid stainless steel frame, the slices remain consistent in size every time you use it.

The amount of force required depends on the firmness of the fruit. However, the ergonomic, non-slip handles allow you to apply downward pressure safely and comfortably, making the process much easier than using a standard knife.

Yes, the entire unit is dishwasher safe. We recommend placing it on the top rack to preserve the longevity of the blades and the handle coating.
