Just in time for summer!! Slice watermelon with precision and ease for salads, picnics and pool parties. This is designed like an apple slicer and works on watermelons up to 16 inch diameter. Simply cut off the bottom of the melon to create a flat surface, center the slicer at the top and push down evenly on the two handles. You have 12 uniform slices of watermelon in no time and ready to serve. I demonstrated with my own Slicer so the Slicer you will receive is brand new and never opened. Very sturdy and well-made! 17 3/4 x 16 1/2 x 3 inches high. GREAT FOR PICNICS~
