It will work on cucumbers. Potatoes may need to be cut a little, and carrots it will do the bigger end as long as it's bigger than about a half inch.

I have not tried carrots as of yet. It made apples into applesauce, and Ice cubes into snow so I don't see why not.

Unless it's a noodle I don't think so. Nuk has some metal ones that spear food good. I do love this brand and use the bowls, spoons, and forks.

Yes they work VERY if whole carrots cut in half... also works well for kale...one trick, do not wash the produce until ready to use keeps much longer! hope that helps

I have the Paderno and love it, other than carrots are a issue unless you can find very fat ones, like I found one time at HMart (oriental market). Rutabagas work well and they are my favorite new pasta, They have taste and texture.

Fat (table) carrots work the best (as opposed to skinny ones); but if you have arthritic hands, you might prefer the larger crank spiralizers instead of this hand held one. I haven't tried beets as I imagine they'd be messy, and do better in the aforementioned crank ones that come with a contained bowl and may have suction cups, but are more expensive of course and as large as a 2 slice toaster instead of this which can be kept in a drawer.

yes for Raddish , cucumbers , carrots as long as it can fit in the cup, it can be curled out. You can size your potatoes to the shape and then you curl it out.

It would not be fair for the other brands, if I answer that cause I hasn't used the other ones they have now. But for the price is a great product. Is small so for french fries you have to use small to medium potatoes so they can fit. And for other vegetables is good also.

I tried sweet potatoes and it won't cut them. They are too hard. Big disappointment since I was really wanting sweet potato fries. Someone suggested I microwave them a bit first before trying to cut them. Haven't tried it. Regular potatoes work ok.

Sorry, I do not know. I've blended mostly fruit and dairy products. I did blend well-cooked broccoli for soup without a problem. I would think spinach would be fine. Kale... I couldn't predict; perhaps if you removed tough stems and cooked until quite tender.

Hi, While our slicer has only had to deal with garlic, the chef says that ginger should not be a problem. One may get thick or thin slices by the pressure applied to the item being sliced. With the extremely sharp cutter blade, most any food substance up to a shallot, or similar, should be fair game. When asked about carrots, no. Things likely to become gummy were also a no-no.

Could you please tell me if it does carrot or zucchini "pasta" ? if it could shred these two veggies like a noodle or pasta thickness?Thank you

Not with the blades that come with it. There are Additional blades you can buy but i don't think any of them would give you long spirals.

Yes, but they have to be crisp. Crisp mini cucumbers, ginger, parsnips. Softer things just don't work well.

I just tried mine on pickle size cucumbers (which is what I wanted it for) and it works great, but they're too thin. Only about 1/16 inch, so sadly, I'm going to send it back and get one of the adjustables. If you were going to make potato chips and wanted things thin, this works great and it's all they said it would be, from what I can see.
