Can you use it for vegetables other than zucchini, for example hard vegetables like carrots? Which other veggies?

yes, I use it for carrots, cucumber, zuchinni--just about all vegetables. It woorks great. I am very pleased with its performance.

Hi, I've used it for other vegies like carrots, cucumbers, peppers, anything you would grate.

I use it for cabbage, carrots, onion, potato, any hard vegetable. No problem.

Yes. I used it for carrot, potato, mushrooms. Carrot will be a little difficult because it is more stiff so need more forces.

I have only used it for celery and it is amazing! Check the individual instructions for different vegetables.

I've been using it for awhile and found that it takes too much muscle to use on vegetables other than zucchini. It does string it to thin spaghetti but you constantly have to adjust the vegetable and crank it slowly.

I've used it for all types of potatoes and sweet potatoes and squash and cucumbers. so far no problems - although overly ripe (soft) ones can mush a little. I am happy with mine.

You can make long and short spiral strips. It's easier to get spirals out of the Zucchinis while the carrots spiral is a bit harder because it's a much firmer vegetable

Carrots were no problem, but I wouldn't go beyond. Actually, I wouldn't bother buying at all. I broke mine on a butternut squash rendering it useless.

Thank you for your question. Our customers and we at UberChef have julienned zuchinni, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, celery, cucumber, applies, kiwi, and a whole lot more :) Test out our Julienne Peeler and let us know what your results are and what fruits/veggies you've used it on!

I have not tried it on vegetables. It failed big time with apples and pears :(

I don't see why not. I've chopped carrots before without a problem, I use it all the time to chop onions, cilantro, parsley, and to make guacamole. It saves a lot of time.

I have used mine to cut 'paper' thin for meats. I have not tried vegetables yet.

I've only used a few times for zucchini. I think a food processor would chop it more. I think of a mandolin for slices. This spiralizer give you noodles, long noodles. Really cool. Kind of vague, hope this helps.

I have not tried. We have a different peeler for hard or firm veggies. We use this one to peel mangos and it is excellent for that.

I've never tried vegetables, Linda, but don't see why not. If something like celery it might clog but others may be fine. Good Luck and let us know.Contessa

Jobaby44, yes, I have used it on the *8 ball zucchini". You may have to quit in the middle and cut off a little and start over (this is for squash, not a hard veggie like beets).

I have used it to slice carrots and it works very well - have not done the julienne. But I have used the julienne on zucchini and I have used the bigger julienne blade on potatoes to make French fries and they both worked well.

I haven't tried veggies. However, I think that based on the way it handles meats that is should do fine with onions, potatoes, celery, beets, etc. Carrots may be a little too hard and tomatoes could be messy.

I have tried onions, celery, carrots, green peppers, nuts, etc. I don't see why it wouldn't do the veggies you mention as long as one doesn't put in too much at a time.
