Some of the reviews

What can I say about the 571B Banana Slicer that hasn't already been said about the wheel, penicillin, or the iPhone.... this is one of the greatest inventions of all time. My husband and I would argue constantly over who had to cut the day's banana slices. It's one of those chores NO ONE wants to do! You know, the old "I spent the entire day rearing OUR children, maybe YOU can pitch in a little and cut these bananas?" and of course, "You think I have the energy to slave over your damn bananas? I worked a 12 hour shift just to come home to THIS?!" These are the things that can destroy an entire relationship. It got to the point where our children could sense the tension. The minute I heard our 6-year-old girl in her bedroom, re-enacting our daily banana fight with her Barbie dolls, I knew we had to make a change. That's when I found the 571B Banana Slicer. Our marriage has never been healthier, AND we've even incorporated it into our lovemaking. THANKS 571B BANANA SLICER!

Once I figured out I had to peel the banana before using - it works much better.
Ordering one for my nephew who's in the air force in California. He's been using an old slinky to slice his banana's. He should really enjoy this product!

If God does not exist, then how is it that a banana fits so perfectly in this banana slicer? CHECKMATE, ATHEISTS!

Wow, doesn't leave much hope for the survival of the species does it?

And btw, hope they turned this comment over to the local authorities:

I spent the entire day rearing OUR children

Yep. No more wielding that dangerous conventional banana carving tool!

It saves literally seconds out of every banana slicing day!

Much superior to the old fashioned method.

5.0 out of 5 stars No more winning for you, Mr. Banana! March 3, 2011

For decades I have been trying to come up with an ideal way to slice a banana. "Use a knife!" they say. Well...my parole officer won't allow me to be around knives. "Shoot it with a gun!" Background check...HELLO! I had to resort to carefully attempt to slice those bananas with my bare hands. 99.9% of the time, I would get so frustrated that I just ended up squishing the fruit in my hands and throwing it against the wall in anger. Then, after a fit of banana-induced rage, my parole officer introduced me to this kitchen marvel and my life was changed. No longer consumed by seething anger and animosity towards thick-skinned yellow fruit, I was able to concentrate on my love of theatre and am writing a musical play about two lovers from rival gangs that just try to make it in the world. I think I'll call it South Side Story.

and my favorite

1.0 out of 5 stars Sliced banana perfectly- NOW WHAT? January 12, 2013

The Hutzler 571 Banana slicer does what it says it does- slice bananas, evenly, thouroughly, perfectly. But now I'm stuck, what do I do with all the banana slices? I don't even know what to do with a whole banana. I gave this product only one star because I wish the instructions were a little more comprehensive. "Push down on banana evenly and Enjoy?!" Enjoy what? How? Why can't all those scientists who came up with this spend a little time more time for those of us who have a little trouble figuring things out?
