Material
Apple corers and slicers usually have stainless steel blades. These are sharp, durable and easy to clean. The body of the corer is most commonly plastic, while more expensive corers might be made from rubber. Rubber handles are more comfortable so perfect if you have a large number of apples to prep.
Design
The design of apple corers can vary. Some are long, slim and basic in functionality, simply removing the core and doing little else! Others have a number of blades and can be used to slice the apples into uniform pieces. These are great for prepping kids’ lunch boxes and snacks.
Ease of Use
Apple corers are designed for ease of use and safety. In most cases, you simply hold the apple steady, insert the corer and remove the core from the apple. It should also be easy to remove the apple core from the blades themselves.
Durability
Your apple corer should be a long lasting addition to your kitchen, with all elements good quality and well made. Plastic or rubber bodies will last, while stainless steel blades should stay sharp. Provided you take care of your new gadget, you should find it lasts a long time.

How to use an apple corer
A typical apple corer has a handle at the top, and a tube underneath. To core an apple, simply hold the apple still on a hard and flat surface. Line the tube up with the centre of the apple and press down. Once the corer has gone the whole way through the apple, pull it back out again. Remove the core from the tube and dispose of it.
