I love how easy this tool is to use on my avacados! It gets the seed out without me having to dig it out with a spoon. The cutting portion isn’t sharp so you don’t cut yourself, but it works to get through the skin to cut it in half. I like only having to use one tool instead of a knife and a spoon when putting avacados. Definite time saver!

this tool is amazing. The 3 in 1 is great. Slice it open, take the stone out and slice it. PERFECT. Dishwasher safe and easy to clean.

This is an amazing kitchen gadget. I totally should have bought one of these years ago. We’ve started eating more avocado and this makes it so much easier and safer. It’s super easy to clean.

The knife works great on ripe avocados (you should not be cutting unripe ones anyway) and the seed popper is a breeze. The issue is that the flesh remover is too large for small or regular sized avocados.

Love how I can just scoop out the avocado and it slices while I scoop. Knife part works and getting the pit out much easier with this device! Will be buying again!

It won’t change your life, but I make avacado toast for breakfast frequently and this makes it much easier. I love it

I recently bought the Oxo Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer and I am very happy with my purchase. I had a big bag of avocados to handle and this tool made the process much easier and faster than using a knife and a spoon. It is quite an innovative product that splits, pits, and slices avocados in one go.
The tool has a plastic blade that cuts through the avocado skin without being too sharp to hurt your fingers. The pitter has three metal prongs that grip and remove the pit with a simple twist. The slicer has a series of blades that create even slices of avocado flesh. The tool also has a soft-grip handle that makes it comfortable to use.
The tool works great on large and medium size avocados that are not too hard and not too ripe. It keeps your hands cleaner and reduces the risk of injury. It also preserves the natural flavor and texture of the avocados. It is dishwasher safe and easy to clean.
The only drawback is that the tool does not work as well on small avocados and very hard or too ripe/soft ones. The blade may not cut through the skin or the pitter may not grip the pit properly. The slicer may also mash the avocado instead of slicing it. You may need to use a knife or a spoon for these cases.
Overall, I think this is a great tool for anyone who loves avocados and wants to prepare them quickly and safely. It is a bit pricey compared to other slicers, but it is worth it for the quality and functionality. I would recommend this product to my friends and family.

Yes, I know you can use a knife and fork to cut and smash up avocado, but that only works when the avocado is perfectly ripe. This little gadget is so useful when you manage to cut open an avocado that is just slightly under-ripe and the fork can’t cope. This gadget is perfect for that and so perfect for me.
Very well made, easy to wash (and lick off) and as someone else has already said, the green bit cleans the bowl up nicely ….. more to lick off. Yum.

The scooper was a little bit difficult to use. Although it did cut open the avocado fairly neatly, I accidentally pressed my thumb onto the pitter blades while cutting the avocado. The scooper did scoop out the avocado very nicely, but I had to poke out the excess avocado from the scooper with my fingers. The pitter works very well.
The smasher was simple to use. It mashed up the avocados very nicely and scraped the side of the bowl. It, too, required me to scrape the excess avocado off with my fingers.
Both the scooper and smasher were easy to clean under running water. I’m sure they could have been put in the dishwasher as well.

My family makes guacamole quite often and this was a game changer. Saves so much time and easy to use.
