OXO Good Grips Melon Baller

Perfect I like that there is 2 sizes

This is hands down the best melon baller I’ve ever owned. I’ve had it for over eight years, and it’s still as reliable as day one. It cleans easily, hasn’t rusted a bit, and has helped me make what feels like over a million perfect melon balls. If you want a tool that’s durable, efficient, and built to last - order it

I purchased the tool for coring and removing seeds from pears, apples and cucumbers.It's a quality tool, very strong. In the past I had another brand that quickly bent just about in half and had to resort to using a paring knife (ugh) or spoon all the time.This OXO tool is comfortable in my hand as well.It can be placed in the dishwasher.I expect to have this tool for a long time because of it's quality and hopefully forever.It's worth the price in my opinion.

Good scoup works well with fruit

Exactly what was needed. Very surprised that I could not find this locally at grocery/retail stores, so ordered it online and very happy - thanks!

My old trustee melon baller broke after so many years (over 20years !). I use as apple core remover.So after a couple of failures, it specifically flat necked one is broken when tried to remove apple core on first try. This one works great! I know it just melon baller but I’m very happy with this scoop ability and good grip!Happy Apple Pie bakers😜😂🥰

I grow a lot of zucchini and yellow squash in my basement, and now and then I harvest large ones that are great for stuffing. This larger end of this melon baller works so much easier for hollowing out the squash rather than the spoon I used to use. Since the piece between the two scoops is rubberized, it's easy to hold and doesn't get slippery from the juices of the fruit or vegetable you are scooping.I don't see this melon baller being helpful in removing seeds from peppers or tomatoes, as membrane of peppers should also be removed, and the smallest scoop is to large to remove seeds from tomatoes. It may be useful for tomatoes if you want to hollow out the whole tomato including seeds. This tool is very useful for removing seeds and the stringy pulp of winter squash and also for removing seeds from fruits such as papaya, cantaloupe, and similar fruits. If you are looking for a tool that will create perfectly round melon balls, I don't believe this tool would work. The part of the melon that is in the bottom of the scoop will be round, but but the top of the portion scooped most likely will not be round.My purposes for this melon baller are to hollow out large zucchinis and yellow squash for stuffing, and to remove seeds and stringy pulp from the winter squash, such as acorn squash, spaghetti squash, etc. and fruits like papaya. For these purposes, this tool is perfect and makes these jobs so much easier.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Love it so convenient. I use it for fruits.
