Generous cherry holder accommodates large cherries like Bing and Rainier, and is recessed to secure smaller varieties
Editorial Review:
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.

Total time-saver
Many a time I have tricked myself into recipes that call for fresh cherries, or pitted olives. And many a time I have found myself cursing and frantic, hand-pitting a messy pile of fruit as I realize I have just set dinner back a friggin' hour. No more. This thing is bomber. Highly recommended.
Great as an Olive Pitter!
I love kalamata olives, and I think they're best when you buy them un-pitted. But I didn't like putting them in salads because I would either have to butcher them with a knife or catch them in the salad and spit out the seeds. This Pitter made everything so much easier. I use this product just about every other day to add olives to my salads. It's comfortable and works extremely well- about 8 out of 10 olives pit perfectly, the others you have to gently pull out of the hole, and the seed catches and... more info
