The discussion centers around the availability and effectiveness of a cherry and olive pitter, which has been removed from catalogs. Users share their experiences, with mixed reviews on its durability and performance. Some report that the tool works exceptionally well for pitting cherries, making it easy to use, even for children. However, others have experienced issues with the pitter falling apart, leading to frustration and multiple replacements. There are inquiries about purchasing used or new pitters, with offers to sell at reasonable prices. Overall, the tool has both advocates who praise its functionality and users who express dissatisfaction with its reliability.

Anyone have this? I saw below that Beth had one, but looks like hers may be gone. Anyone else?
I know I have at least one opened, I think I have a new one, too.

Here's a helpful idea, you know the stem piece from a coffee perkalator? the inside piece that is straight? You can use that as a cherry pitter. It works wonders!

Thanks ladies- one question, as this item was taken out of the catalog- was it any good or worth it? Just wondering if it's worth it or not. My friend wants it, but want to make sure it is a tool that works well. She has a cherry tree and needs to pit lots of cherries.
I don't know if it actually works well or not. I've had two replacements and am now on my third and I only demo'd it twice for a couple of olives. Darn thing keeps falling apart. Now it's in my cupboard AGAIN in two pieces and I can't be bothered calling to replace yet another one.
I never used mine. I have one new in box that I will sell for 10.00 (price includes shipping). I think the last one I sold cost about 2.50 to mail but not sure. If anyone wants it, just send me a pm with contact info.

I love mine! I used it on a bunch of cherries last week. Makes it very easy for my 3 yo to eat them.
