Advantages: Simple but effective, very cheap

Disadvantages: Small and get lost easily

Everyone at work laughs at me when I get my Lakeland orange peeler out but I think its fantastic. I have to be honest and say that I never eat oranges, but since buying these I have started to have the odd satsuma and that is what I use them for (maybe that's why people are laughing).

OK, its pathetic but I really don't like peeling satsumas and it puts me off eating them so when I saw these in Lakeland, 77p for 2 I had to buy them. They are made of green plastic with a ring for your finger and a small plastic 'blade' to peel the orange. The arch of plastic between the blade and the ring tapers at the ends so you can use it to dig under the peel and take it off, making it possible to peel an orange (or satsuma) without hardly touching it.

These are such a simple concept but absolutely fantastic, another Lakeland classic, the only problem with them is that as they are very small I do keep losing them, but I always find them again and they're so cheap that it wouldn't be the end of the world to replace them.

Summary: If you'd like an easier way to peel citrus fruit these are for you
