....just saw this in the Bed Bath & Beyond flyer.....It's $19.99. I do not own PC's A/P/C/S so can anyone give me a comparison when someone at a show talks about this one??
TIA!
 
I think they BBB one is cheap. Ours is much better. Have you ever had a suction cup come flying off? I can't imagine what kind of mess that would cause, not to mention damage to your surface. The stand makes it a lot more versitile. And the clamps can attach right to your counter without damaging it.

Excellent points!!! Thanks! :D
 
You're welcome! HTH!
 
I once had the Rotato (yes, I know it was from an infomercial and I LOVED IT!!!) I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread until I met the Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer. It was great, but the blades were flimsy and then they stopped making the thing and you couldn't get the replacement blades...it was a bummer for me...the APCS is MUCH better made. Really something that will last you forever!
 
I saw the BBB flyer. It looks like it just peels and cores. It doesn't look like it has the slicer. Maybe I am blind. I love my Pampered Chef A/P/S/C!!!! I use it all the time now. My 4 yr. old son won't eat apples any other way.
