what's goin everybody this is James white with frequenter views bringing you as seen on TV product reviews gadget reviews and more now if you like what you see in this video please consider subscribing for more videos like this now today I'm comparing four different watermelon slices that's right I got watermelon slices that's because this one which is a windmill design watermelon slices got me a lot of requests over the last couple months so I figure to compare it to a few others to see how it stacks up so for the delay let's get right to it alright let's go over the four different contestants and see how they stack up first up I'm gonna go with the as seen on TV because that's my specialty hear it slice right which came out several years ago I actually found this one unclear it's a Bed Bath and Beyond for three bucks and there it is very pretty very attractive very dangerous looking actually we've got some instructions next up for the windmill shaped watermelon slicer I picked this one up for 16 bucks in Amazon there's a bunch of different competitors this is the one that I happen to buy first impression it doesn't feel real sturdy and lessens feel real that's pretty thin but we'll see if it works this one's similar to the slice right but higher review on Amazon this is by sleek I believe it's pronounced this one was fourteen bucks ooh very pretty and it says sleek right there and finally this is the big boy right here is doesn't seem to have a name even it says as see on TV I don't think it was actually a see on TV I've never seen this advertised if it was advertised it would have a name it doesn't even have a name to it I paid about $19 for this one and this was interesting cuz look at this it's got some funny typos are made in China please keep away from from Childre so they put a lot of time and effort into the proofreading of the packaging but let's see how it looks I felt the blade is already sharp here look at the size of this thing compare this to an apple corer I mean it's like it's like the apple cores Big Brother it's huge and it cuts in into twelve uniform slices now they say that you can use it with any kind of melon big watermelons small so I'll put that claim on the test so what I'm gonna do now is I'm gonna wash all these I'm gonna read all the instructions and I'm gonna get my watermelons prepared and start slicing all right let's get started with the as-seen-on-tv contestants slice right this has been out for several years again I got this on clearance but you can still find it the instructions aren't very extensive which I guess you don't have to be just as cut it in half carve out your slices flip it over to grab to slice out easy or is it let's find out who got will splash okay I have to stand up for this one okay well it's not it's not the smoothest in the world it goes in easily but then pulling across you I guess there's a little bit of a learning curve see that second one went a little bit better all right let's see what we got here now what do you do at the end oh oh I just went off I just went off oh I just made like a left-hand turn and didn't go right all right well I guess you have to be mindful of the line you're following here which I didn't really do okay I'm getting I'm I'm getting the hang of it all right well you're supposed to flip it over and then squeeze it and it almost lifts out there it goes uh-huh I don't think I got all the way down this one okay well oh this one just came out with on the cutting side and squeezing it I'm really squeezing hardened and have to kind of twist it guys I don't know I don't really know about this I feel like I could have got more with a knife says for all size of melons let's try a mini watermelon and see how that goes I don't wanna go too deep I'm only gonna get like three slices out of here this this lifting out thing isn't working too well for me yeah I'll just do that I try to go at it angle I guess maybe I realized why this is on clearance Oh split all splash I think I got the hang of this and if I can sit down for it I feel like I would have got more from a knife than in this lie straight I don't know I mean look how much is left in this watermelon it's a lot in there let me try to cantaloupe next it does say it's for other melons right it says works with all sizes and kinds of melons that's not easy to push in there oh come on now there's no way I don't know about this guy's ah smooth as silk that's right ah I don't know about cantaloupe man I'm just not feeling it there's no way that my mom would be able to do this I feel like I left too much what do you guys think about that it did cut them but let me show you what I got here the big watermelon the cantaloupe and this is the mini watermelon and here's how it look how much is left mini and cantaloupe I'm not too impressed but let's keep going and see if the others are any better all right next up let's try the similar but more highly rated sleek now to compare these two you can see the sleek has a thicker handle as you can see the sleek extends the rubberized grip onto the handle while this slice right doesn't that's so that when you're holding this lick you can actually get a little bit more support there so let's see if that actually makes a difference their instructions are better definitely better instructions but their written instructions say to cut it lengthwise but their instructional video shows them kinda width wise so I'm not sure I'll cut it with wise here we go right now once again I got splashed okay great this one oh this one's cutting a much easier much more smoother than a slice right I feel like this one's definitely cutting it much easier than the slice right did I know if like this getting stuck getting the hang of this now speeding up I'm gonna lift these out of here here we go all right I'm getting the hang of this one now is this going faster than the slicer I think it I think it's going a little bit faster did it cut better probably a little better - you still have the problem with these ends here love can you can't do it at an angle let's see they get watermelon my shirt it's all for a good cause though I gotta admit these a little bit awkward down here and the gripping it's kind of slippery on both of them again it falls out but did I waste as much maybe not so the water my thing a little bit better on that one let's try the mini I feel like I'm butchering this thing oh my goodness all right I'm not sure these are good for many of watermelons oast making sloshing sounds now alright well guess I went I guess I went okay maybe the cantaloupe will redeem it cuz this was not very good with a slice right my arm is shaking okay I'm gonna do this even if it means losing a finger to I'm gonna do this yeah I'll just pulled right out I guess leverage here power this thing out yeah that's right I'm flying through it now that's right flying through this cantaloupe the first piece is harder once you get one started it actually isn't too bad I actually felt like I got much more out of the cantaloupe on this then I did on the slice right whoo I'll see what we got for this one it's a big watermelon the little watermelon and the cantaloupes are right here all right next up how we're really interested in how this windmill-type watermelon slicer is gonna work it supposedly cuts it into cubes and on the side here if you can see that you can go up you can choose the size of the cubes you want this requires you to cut the watermelon in half and cut an end off let's do it this is the one I'm most curious about go right down the center let's see what we got here oh it's Oh worked it actually jettisoned a piece out whoa it's actually working I can't believe it no instructions but I actually got cubes Wow it looks like I kind of went I went uphill a little bit I kind of went upwards I had extraordinarily low expectations for this so it's are the first pass-through was actually exceeded though so let's keep going all right let's see we got here oh this is actually working I can't believe it I am shocked I just got I splash in the face I think that this would be easier for a child to use I'm not sure this is for a child but if your kid wants to help out with a watermelon this might be a little more time consuming but it's fallen table now but I really think that this is it's less physical effort than the other two that I've done until I get to that rind it's also a little bit Messier my hands are already my hand is already getting wet I'm gonna kind of go fast let's see what I can do oh it does splash I'm getting splashed here I can actually go pretty quick if I stand up here and aim it just right I'm just just shocked this thing works at all to be honest it definitely is messy what if I can go sideways on the side here let me try that out so that ooh hey it worked what do you know I can actually go on the sides I'm a little bit surprised at this actually or let me try some let me try that mini one here what works on this one too and the cubes are the same size unlike when you do the other slices they're a lot smaller these are the same size cubes I just got some blasts in the face again I'm gonna need a shower after this one I think let's see if it works in cantaloupe I'm not it wasn't supposed to offer cantaloupe but I'm gonna try and cantaloupe anyways oh hey I got some cantaloupe chunks Oh wearing them now okay that may have not have been the best thing for cantaloupe you get pretty messy with this I got splashed in the faces on my hands and it's more time-consuming the others but it did work and that's more than I expected from it at all so I gotta get some props for that let me show you closer look at the final results and there it is we have a nice presentation well this these these didn't really cut too well but look at this you can't even tell which ones the mini versus the the full-size one because it has the same size cubes and I feel like I got a little bit more out of the melons than I did on the other two so I think there's some benefits to this one surprisingly and for my finale this bad boy looks like a massive version of one of these four apples it says it works from any melons so we'll see what happens there are no instructions let's see oh wow that's okay it's getting started this is so easy whoo yeah certainly not something that grandma's gonna be able to do but look at this look at that whoa even a nice a nice display if he's illegally at there look at this Wow check this out you could just leave it on there and display it like that I think well I gotta say it took a lot more effort than the others but look how fast that was and you've got 12 perfect slices right out of the gate so just certainly something to be said for this all even got one of these things here can only imagine the comments on that but it's edible though right oh wow guess what the cantaloupe still has the seeds in there I didn't think about that ooh I guess you have to take the pieces out oh look at this I guess you're gonna have to like get the seeds out afterwards it still really isn't that bad though that looks like some sort of underwater creature that's gonna be like the seeds might be an issue but you can easily scrape those off of each piece yeah actually a lot of the seeds are right there yeah can you put that back together that's pretty cool all right last one let's try this mini watermelon and wrap this up hey yeah boom boy have I forgot to clean off the cantaloupe seeds that's alright though look at that look at not bad then you get one of these below in the center as well so we've got the full-sized watermelon cantaloupe and the mini watermelon all right it's time to rank these now to me this is an easy choice here number four I'm going with the slice right I thought that it was hard to pick up the pieces it didn't really cut that well it kind of required some strength so I don't think that it was that effective now I say number three is this sleek I'm not to be honest I'm not a big fan of this type of watermelon slicer anyways but if you're gonna pick up one this leak is actually probably one of the nicer ones in this category it did better than the slice right I'm just not a fan of this style number two the shocking windmill type which I had very low expectations or it actually does pretty well it was the easiest to cut through so if strength this is an issue for you this might be your best choice it also gives you uniform cubes no matter what size your melon is and I think you actually have less waste with this one than you do with these number one to me the easy choice is this unnamed bad boy right here which even though it took a lot of strength to push it down I think if the strength is an issue for you this may not be a good choice but if it is not a problem for you you can fly through melons in a second and they're all perfectly sliced and it actually makes a nice spread watch this this is the 12 slice cutter nice attractive display huh so that's all I've got have you guys use any
