Product Description With the OXO Good Grips Cherry Pitter, baking cherry pies, canning cherries and making homemade preserves are no longer the pits. The Cherry Pitter features a removable splatter shield that directs juices downward and prevents them from soiling your work area. When not in use, the splatter shield fits inside the front chamber and a lock holds the Cherry Pitter closed for convenient storage. Sturdy, die-cast zinc construction removes pits with ease, and soft, comfortable non-slip handles absorb pressure while you squeeze. The cherry holder is extra large to accommodate Bing and Rainier cherries and has a recessed cup to securely hold smaller varieties when pitting. Also try the Cherry Pitter to prepare fresh cherries for small children. The Cherry Pitter should be placed in the dishwasher in its unlocked position.

OXO cherry pitter ok September 28, 2008 I purchased this particular product because it was endorsed by a cooking magazine. It is fairly easy to use and cleans easily, but I didn't expect it to leave such a large hole in what you were pitting. The other thing I don't care for is the "splash guard" frequently comes off during the pitting process. I will continue to use this product because it's better than nothing.
Just what I needed September 18, 2008 WOW! I read the other reviews and wondered how it was people could be so excited about a cherry pitter- this thing is fantastic! Easy to use, easy to clean; absolutely the best tool for the job.
Oxo has done better September 15, 2008 I was a little disappointed in this product. I pitted some olives and it took quite a bit of strength to work it. The olives were not all that hard.
Perfect for smaller amounts of cherries September 12, 2008 This Cherry pitter works very nice except for the occasional stuck pit that does not get seperated from the cherry. The splash gard works well but you still want to hold it down into the sink. The grip feels very nice in the hand. Easy to wash out. Would definetly buy again.
Marvelous Invention September 12, 2008 I love cherries. This cherry pitter makes it a breeze to pit them. The splash guard reduces the splatter of cherry juice. I hold my hand under the guard to make sure the pit comes out; as a result any remaining splash goes into my hand. On the rare occasions the pit remains in the cherry, it's an easy job just to pick it out once the cherry is removed.
The tool is easy to grip and use and after washing, the splater shield can be removed and locked in place. As a result, the tool storage space is reduced.
I already ordered three of these gadgets, one for me and the rest as gifts. My boyfriend bought one too and he loves it. My boyfriend tried it on olives and says that works too.
It's also great as a wedding gift for those gadget or kitchen baskets a bride may have. Rarely will anyone think of giving such an item so it's not likley to be a duplicate.
Most people who enjoy eating or baking with cherries will love this kitchen tool.
