I agree with the other reviewers that getting the stone/kernel out of a mango is the hardest task of eating a mango. But living in Brazil, I eat a lot of mangos and only rarely now use this device.
It's one thing removing the stone, but then you're left with mango flesh attached to the skin! It is fairly fiddly and messy negotiating that instead of the stone. I've found that the least messy way is to cut the flesh into little squares and then turn the skin inside out, making an outward curve of flesh pieces. But then you have to cut them away from the skin which is still not easy.
All in all, I find it easier to peel the mango and then cut it vertically as close to the stone as possible. But having said that, this Oxo device does what it should. Two tiny preliminary cuts from a knife at the top of the mango, and then push downwards, and out comes your core: it couldn't be easier.
But if you want to save on mess, then I think the knife and hands work better.

If you like the more exotic mango fruit but hate the splitting & loseing half the flesh around the stone then this is the best buy, easy to use and no waste!! Definately recommended. I'm a fruit nut and this utensil is the best of the bunch, so no more excuses for walking past the fruit counter & just wishing it could be easier, with this in the kitchen it just got a whole lot simpler!

I love mangos. But on many occasions they have sat in my fruit bowl until they went off as I could not face the hassle and clean-up preparing them. My mango splitter arrived today and I successfully 'split' my first mango with ease.If you peel the mango first with a fruit peeler, then it is ready to slice any way you want.
Some reviewers have had problems with very large mangos and it would seem that this device works best with a medium sized fruit, but I don't think this detracts from the usefulness of this gadget.
I would definitely recommend.

Easy to use
Does a good job. It's not the best on very ripe mangos as it just tends to dent them but all in all a good product which I have recommended to friends

Nifty!!
Well so far I've only used it once and the results were excellent, the Mango does need to be reasonably firm otherwise it turns to pulp but that's great for me as I like them... Read more

Does what it says on ...
Well-made, sturdy piece of kit. Needless to say, it can't strip the mango 100%, but then that does leave you with some mango flesh left around the mango stone to get your teeth... Read more

Brilliant product. Eccentric .. who'd have thought of it. I have now bought several (John Lewis also do them) as presents for friends.

Brilliant gadget
Mangos are the most awkward fruit to slice thanks to the size and shape of the stone...No longer.
Just place the Mango Cutter over the stone and push down. Read more

works well
Bought to replace a rather flimsy item that didn't last. This one is much stronger, works well and looks as if it will last the course.
