This year, I’ve sadly neglected my garden. It’s overgrown with weeds and untamed vegetable plants. Somehow it struggles on without my help, relying on rain and hope to keep going. Today I harvested a few tomatoes, and discovered 2 yellow squash that were so big and hard that they resembled gourds you’d use for a bird feeder. What to do? It was time to pull out the Vegetable Spiralizer I just received from Smart Buy Center.
I liked that the spiralizer has a separate compartment for catching the spirals, plus a lid for storing the veggies. That’s a really convenient feature. I’ve tried similar products that didn’t have the receptacle, and the spirals ended up getting everywhere. This gadget made me wonder how it would work for making snow cones, too….you could shave the ice right into the little bowl!
The spiralizer is packaged in a sturdy box with some separate parts. Here is where things started to go wrong for me. I couldn’t find directions for assembly and, being the Type B that I am, I just started to put it together willy-nilly. It looked like it was going to work just fine. With the yellow squash popped in the spiralizer, I started to go to town turning the handle. Unfortunately nothing happened for me. There were a few shavings of squash, but I didn’t connect the pieces correctly so the squash really didn’t get to the blade it needed. After trying to disconnect the handle and assess the situation, I realized I tightened it too firmly. My husband will have to take it apart for me! There’s a product video on Smart Buy Center but it doesn’t show the actual assembly process.
Hopefully you will have better luck, readers. This is a handy kitchen tool that has a lot of potential. Once I can figure out how to work it, we’ll definitely use it to make spiral veggie slices. Enter to win your own Fresh Twist kitchen use vegetable slicer. The form is open below; the giveaway is available to US readers ages 18+. Void where prohibited by law. Good luck!

I would like to have the Essential Oil Diffuser to place in my bedroom for better sleep. Thanks.
I’ve wanted a spiralizer for a while – I love zoodles but don’t have a way to make them right now. I also wouldn’t mind trying the sleep mask from the same company.
I’d love to win this for my grandma! I would also love to have the Fit Simplify Resistance Loop Exercise 4 Bands.
I want to win the spiralizer for my youngest daughter, because she can’t have true pasta. This would be awesome for her meals when we have pasta and she can have veggies instead of fake pasta!
My neighbor grows lots of veggies and get some. Want this for that.
A couple of years ago my husband treated us to a gourmet vegetable dinner with pasta made soley of zucchini and yellow squash. As I don’t have the strength in my hands I’ve been looking for a gizmo that could help me recreate this meal and the vegetable spirilizar would be perfect
I would love to win this Perfect Twist 4 way Vegetable Spiralizer! I have wanted one for some time now, and this one looks perfect! I’ve tried making “noodles” using my mandoline slicer, but I’m not very successful at it. I have a Spiralizer Cookbook, and really need/want this Spiralizer 🙂 Thanks for this chance!

I’d like to win this spiralizer so I can put a new twist on meals. And now, a song: “Squish Squash, I was havin’ a wash…”
I would love to have this becaause i have a spiralizer but it is huge and takes up so much space I just can’t keep it. This looks like it would work much better in my small kitchen.
I would really love to Save time and effort when preparing food with the spiralizer.
I want to make noodles from summer squash.
I would love to try Perfect Twist 4 way Vegetable Spiralizer to make a lot of fun dinners.

I would love to make spiral veggie slices with sea salt using this.
My chopping skills are very poor. Need this.
I havent had good luck with spiralizing summer squash – cooks down too squishy. I have had good luck with zucchini tho and love doing it!
Being citizens of advanced ages, my husband and I are always weight and health conscious. This spiralizer would help me prepare fresh vegetables for our meals in more tantalizing and flavorful ways to keep us out of the doctors offices and off many medications. Our insurance company would surely appreciate our efforts at reducing our claims to them.
I do like that it’s four Japanese quality steel blades slice your vegetables into 4 different widths for any recipe needs you may have.
I’d like uniform pieces of veggies instead of what I make.
Hey, I know you are tired of hearing this but; remember how I said I got the 1 email on Aug. 6? Well that is still the only email newsletter I have received.
I would really like to make veggie pasta with this product.
I like their Lightweight & Soft Sleep Mask.
I want to win because it is a easy way to cut up veggies
I do like that this is dishwasher safe! That is terrific.
I want to win this because I’ve been wanting one, it would be great for salads.
Too much garden. Need this.
I do like that the receptacle container avoids splashes in your kitchen or your clothes and keeps your slicer vegetables hygienic and clean.
Want to make pretty veggies.
I am an insane pasta lover but due to my medical condition, I had to start the auto-immune diet. I’d love to have this so I could sort of kind of have pasta again.
I want to make pretty food.
I just bought a spiralizer, but I wish I would have seen this post first. This looks a lot more easier on the wrists the the one that I go. Yours also looks so much easier to clean.
