I take yur point of the unitasker, but this could cut anything circular.

Having just taken a big DUMP on the rotating Shower bath entity 6 items up scroll, I come to these with a genuine thrill.

It’s a good idea.

Not a great idea, abnd not one that I think should catch on in the domestic kitchen, but it would be worth seeing how a catering version would fair.

Not sying it would be a big win or a popular with the public, but if you could cut exactly even slices from a pie that was to be sold by slice would that be useful?

Also if you could rotate the platform section from a pivot at the front of the bottom blade then you could govern slice size.

I think it is a good idea that no doubt by Sunday some one here will have found the blueprints for from it’s first airing in 1899.

You clever people.

It’s got a lot more to recommend it than that bloody awful shower.

@PaulVI – anodized? or brushed to feel anodized? Cheap, I did say that.

Yup, once again we have evidence that it’s worth a try (to somebody selling shtuff) to market any “product” that comes to mind. Someone is going to buy it.

I use Alton Brown’s “unitasker” guideline: unitasker bad. Even the pizza wheel does more than cut pizzas; you can cut brownies, too. The garlic press can also press chocolate chunks into bits.

And scratch the darn pan. What is it, Tiffany & Co. silver? You know, Walmart sells anodized aluminum pizza pans — cheap if not scratch resistant.

Mousetrap? Or sucker trap?

If it’s the latter, they’re doing a fair job of it…

I don’t even have a pizza wheel…a kitchen knife works just fine. Seriously, how inept do you have to be to need one of these?

These have been in the Skymall magazine for a year so you know they are worthless.

Is it just me, or does it seem unlikely that this would do a satisfactory job?

Just another piece of kitchen crap that you don’t need, the pizza wheel works just fine.
