Kitchen tip: don’t buy peelers with magnetic handles.

It might seem like it’s a cool idea, but actually they’re just annoying; having them stick to other things is not at all useful.

  2. Being magnetic and everything, isn’t that because you’re supposed to hand them from a magnetic wall-mounted rack, and not in your cutlery drawer?

    I suppose tossing them into the sink might still pose a problem though…

  4. I wasn’t aware potatoes stuck to magnets. ;-).

  6. @Oz, yeah they could go on a magnetic rack, but I’d have thought most people would save rack space for bigger things like knives, not space-inefficient potato peelers!

  8. Knives are potato peelers. Knives are universal peelers, really.

  10. If you’ve got a magnetic rack there is no need for the items to have magnets inside (like this peeler. They just need to be magnetic in the sense that they stick to magnets.
