We had high hopes for this little device. My in-laws grow and freeze a ton of corn each year and wanted a better way of getting the corn from the cobs. It cuts only one or two rows at a time and was extremely messy to use. Using a good old-fashion knife worked much better and didn't cause a huge mess. Sorry to say but this little device just isn't worth it.

We strip corn yearly and was looking for a good corn Zipper and the Kuhn Rikon Corn Zipper was a big help and got the whole kernel which is a blessing. I really like this item. Would recommend this to any one that does alot of freezing and canning.

I did not like this product at all. It did not work.
It was a waste of money.

I use raw corn in many of my salads and I looked forward to having a handy device to strip the kernels off the cob. What a disappointment this gadget is! It absolutely mangles the kernels. I'm back to using a knife, which at least produces whole kernels, rather than tearing them up or squashing them.

I wanted to like this product, but in fact I'm very disappointed. As others have noted, you can only remove a row or two at a time - and only if the row of kernels is straight. If the row isn't straight, the "zipper" snags. It's also difficult to use because the ear of corn is hot and it's painful to grip the ear and work the zipper. Instead, I'd recommend the "corn cob cutter slicer stripper knife." While it isn't perfect, it gets the job done better than with a knife, and without sending part of your dinner all over the table.
