I was tired of using my old steward. So I switched to the higher speed by investing a few euros more in this peeler with electric assistance. Well I'm not surprised its assistance! Simply add vibration and it's magic, peel the carrots with ease! Even my wife thanks me with this purchase! It comes with two batteries and a second head with small teeth, which I have not yet used. So I recommend this culinary tool to save time in the preparation of your next meal.
