Slice and core fruits with ease using the KitchenAid Classic Fruit Slicer, designed for even eight-piece wedges every time. Its ergonomic handles lend comfort and leverage, while sturdy stainless steel blades tackle pears and medium to large apples. Best for everyday snacking and meal preparation, it's also dishwasher safe for quick clean-up. Note that the blade sharpness may fade with time, especially with firmer fruits, so consider what produce you'll use it with most.
Reality Check
KitchenAid’s KE305OHERA Classic Fruit Slicer is a manual kitchen tool designed to quickly core and slice fruits and vegetables into eight even wedges. With stainless steel blades and ergonomic handles, it’s meant to simplify prepping apples, pears, and similar produce, making it easier to serve snacks or prepare ingredients for recipes. Its dishwasher-safe design keeps clean-up fast, which is ideal for everyday use.
In practice, the slicer delivers consistent slices and feels solid in the hand, but the sharpness of the blades divides opinion. The most frequently cited drawback is that the blades tend to dull over time, making it less effective on firmer fruits and potentially causing cores to stick, requiring extra force or cleanup. If you mainly slice softer or medium-sized fruit and value convenience, these drawbacks might not matter. However, those dealing with extra-crisp apples or similar produce may find themselves frustrated by the slicer’s performance as it ages.
Best For: Home cooks who want a fuss-free way to quickly slice apples and pears for snacks or recipes
Not Recommended For: Those who routinely slice firmer fruits or expect long-term blade sharpness without sharpening or replacement
