Hello Paulina , yes it will peel a sweet potato , but the slices won't be wide enough . Your slices won't be big enough to make chips . I hope I helped you . It's a great peeler .

I have never made a rectangular french fry with it, but it can make wonderful potato chips, including sweet potato. As to peeling, it is the BEST peeler I have ever used on any type of vegetable, from removing celery threads to the tough skin of butternut squash. It even makes beautiful Parmesan cheese shavings. Hope this helps.

Not 100% sure , but manual states you can make crispy French fries with it. So I think so.

Of course it will. Use it in the slicing (or wavy slicer) position and you can slice raw sweet potatoes just fine. They're a little bit too hard to use the julienne disc, however.

It makes very thin potato slices. This was a gift for my daughter in law and she said it saves her so much time as she cooks for six. Potato chips are the main thing she uses it for.

No, not all at one time. What I've done is cook 4 minutes then wait 30 seconds then cook 4 more minutes. This makes the potatoes super soft. This product is amazing. I've used it for sweet potatoes and broccoli too. I put veggies in a Baggie then in this bag. 4 minutes works for veggies too.

The is no comparison to a toaster oven or a regular oven. Those ovens only cook in one directions mainlly down. The Presto cooks on both sides at once. For example, a pizza cooks on both sides where in a regular oven it cooks only on one side.That is what give frozen french fries the delicious fast food taste without frying in oil to finish. The controls are such that you can only cook on one side if you desire, but why would you do that?

Using an electric deep fryer which maintains a constant high temperature, I find no difference. I'm not sure what is meant by "fair fries" but I enjoy the 1/2" fries much better than 1/4" which sometimes turn too crispy and lack a nice potato flavor. The cutter itself is a real labor saver and can produce fries very rapidly.

yes I own one of these cookers and it is so easy and fastto have a meal. I recommend a the deep fryer cook book because of so many uses for it.

I haven't tried fish in it because I like my fish pan-fried rather than baked or roasted. Chicken is AMAZING. I had actually gone off roasting chicken because my the time the skin was as crispy as I liked it, the flesh would be overdone and a bit dry. However, chicken in the Airfryer is delicious and fabulous. French fries cook really nicely whether they be the frozen type or homemade oven fries. I love the fact that it only takes 5 minutes to heat up and I don't have to heat an entire oven just to cook some fries for myself.

Yes. This cuts carrots and they are much harder than sweet potatoes. It cuts a veggie platter quickly but wont cut green peppers. It does cucumbers and carrots beautifully and any kind of potatoes! I love my cutter!

You can: Peel separately - and I use it all the time for potatoes. It's not just for apples - big dinner, big parties - ten pounds of potatoes peeled QUICK! You could slice and core without peeling - but you couldn't just slice or just core - that's one mechanism. Or you can do all three. It really is the best priced gadget I have in my kitchen - bought one for my mum. Grand mum and mum-in-law. They all love it.

Yes, you can cut sweet potatoes. It takes more patience as a sweet potato is harder in its composition than a softer white potatoes and at times it will jam a bit. I cut sweet potatoes for custom dog food that I make and I have never gotten through a batch (20lbs) with out having to poke jammed potatoes from the blade. Patience and you'll be good. When I make large batchs (40+ lbs of potatoes) I use a hand French Fry Cutter / Potato Cutter as it is far easier with out the jam issue. I have the Nemco 56450A-1 - Monster FryKutter - Tabletop Mount. I have it mounted on a wall in the garage (Vertically) as this is easier for me to press down using my body strength for more leverage. Works like a charm. Yes, you can cut sweet potatoes. It takes more patience as a sweet potato is harder in its composition than a softer white potatoes and at times it will jam a bit.

hello, i haven't tried making thin and crisp potato slices. in fact the slicer is in the cabinet w/other things I don't use anymore....I don't fry any foods so I wouldn't even do that but I have tried slicing potato's for baked fries and it dosent work that great. You have to take the skin off then slice. Slicer won't work well w/skins on. good luck

I would think so. If you loosen the wing nut and swing away the coring circle it should peel a potato. I haven't tried this but looks like it would work.
