Product Description
Suddenly it is ok to play with your food...even for us adults! The Spirali from Lurch is an innovative spiral cutter for making spirals, strips, vegetable spaghetti and slices from fruit and vegetables. The Spirali holds fruit and vegetables for horizontal processing, allowing the operator to easily apply pressure on produce with a separate feed handle as it goes through any one of the three modular stainless steel blades. It can make spiral shapes, slices and spaghetti strips from most fruit and vegetables. The ingenious design allows for fast, easy assembly and compact storage when not in use. Its easy to clean and the suction feet keep it all stable when you wind the handle across. The blades on the Spirali (unlike its partner the Spiralo) locate produce with a central corer that is handy for things like cucumber and apples but it does leave you with a tiny cylinder of un-processed waste on core-less produce. Spruce up your salads, frill up your fruit and scintillate your stir-fries with the Spirali!

This is a really fun piece of kitchen equipment. Good sturdy build and does everything it says on the box.
However, with hindsight, I wish I had bought the vertical Lurch Spiralo - but only because my kitchen is quite small and the horizontal Spirali takes up more worktop space than I expected. Also, it seems that the Spiralo spiralizes the whole width of the vegetable and doesn't waste the centre the way this model does.
So I will still give it 5 stars for performance and build, but personally, I think the Spiralo is probably a better (and later?) design.

I bought this after going on a Raw Food course. I think it's better made than the one they had at the cookery school and it does exactly the same job: long spaghetti-like threads of different thicknesses and curly spirals. You do lose the centre of the vegetable you are cutting - you are left with a perfect little stick - but you can slice these thinly or use them for dips or (as I do) eat while you cook! For this reason, large veg work better (there has to be enough of the vegetable to remove a 8mm core and still have something left to grate) so no good for those little finger carrots. The blades are easy to change and when not in use store in a convenient compartment beneath the unit. It does not stain, even with raw beetroot, and is easy to clean especially if you rinse it straight after use, before the food fibres have time to go sticky and get clogged in the blades. Lots of fun to use... I just couldn't stop turning things! I ummed and aaaed a lot before choosing this model over their vertical one but I think it's the right choice for me as I like that the food comes out at one side, not underneath, although the vertical one may be better for anyone short on storage space. I also bought the matching Lurch mandoline/slicer and am very pleased with it. Both good value products.

I saw a similiar product on "The great british menu" and desired to make my own vegetable spaghetti, so I bought the Lurch. The Lurch is slightly more cost effective as it does the job, but it does lack a "sturdy" feel. The rubber suctions help to stabilise it to my worktop, but I had some difficulty with larger root vegetables e.g. sweet potato and russets. Carrots worked like a dream but it did stain the white.

So far as I can tell this Lurch spiral slicer is exactly the same model as others you'll see on this site and others, the only difference is that this one is cream in colour with pale green contrast. The bulid is good, well balanced with suction feet to keep the unit stable. The blades are very sharp. The whole thing is easy to use and easy to clean. Not the most compact thing, though, so might not be ideal if you have limited space.

I saw this product on BBC Saturday Kitchen programme and thought it would be novel and useful for salad making.
Then I Googled spirali recipes, and once I had filtered out the recipes using the pasta shapes called spirali, I found a lot of "raw food" recipes that used this product.
In a weird 'chain-reaction', having discovered how raw vegetarian food is so much better for us than cooking all the nutrients out of our food, this has lead me onto a whole new way of making and eating food. As a result I have now bought a juice extractor which I use every other day (veg and fruits) grow and juice wheat grass, have bought and started using a dehydrator and about 50% of our food so far is 'raw food'.
Or, you could just use it to make salads :) Using it to make courgette noodles to eat with a pasta sauce or to deep fry is terrific. Highly recommend it!

I bought this a week ago now and i`m really pleased with the whole product.
The suction cups on the feet keep the spirilizer stuck fast to the work surface and the blades are extremely sharp.
It`s also very easy to store as the extra `plates` slide underneath.
I have tried it with cucumber,sweet potato,potatoes,carrots and onion so far and they all worked brilliantly.

I don't usually write reviews but just had to say that this is a fantastic product! I've used it on courgettes, cucumbers, onions, potatoes, carrots, peppers and cheese. Haven't tried butternut squash but that will be next! Makes a gorgeous spiral Greek salad. I really like being able to use veg as "pasta" as I am on a low carb diet. Really fun product!

I am glad I purchased this item. I never thought that I could eat raw sweet potato, but I did with the spirali and it tasted good. The product is sturdy, although it doesn't seem to stick to the surface very well. It is easy to assemble and easy to use and easy to clean. It is a great product and fun to use!

Great despite looks
Lets just say I didn't buy this "vegetable killer machine" because of its looks. But it's actually pretty good and can turn your vegetables into different shapes. Read more
