The Good Housekeeping Institute put the top spiralizers to the test so that you can buy the right spiralizer to best suit your needs, budget, and space. We considered everything: the spiralizer's ease of use, how easy it was to clean, its ability to spiralize soft and hard fruits and vegetables alike, how much waste each one produced, the sturdiness of each model, and how neatly it can be stored. Below are our top lab-tested picks for the best spiralizers, from countertop to handheld models.

Best Countertop Spiralizer

OXO Good Grips 3-Blade Tabletop Spiralizer

OXO Good Grips 3-Blade Tabletop Spiralizer

As the name suggests this Oxo model has by far the best and easiest to use suction. In fact, in Lab testing, it scored higher than any other model across the board for ease of use, performance, clear blade labeling, and storage. 

Our top pick comes in at slightly higher in price than some, especially for only having three blades — but it’s clearly built to last and we found the suction lever made it easy to stick and remove the spiralizer from the countertop. The suction was so good, in fact, that this pick excelled in our hard vegetable tests, where a little extra pressure is required.

Best Value Spiralizer

Farberware Spiraletti Spiral Vegetable Slicer

At less than $15 it’s hard to find a more affordable countertop spiralizer on the market than this Farberware model. As you would expect for the price, it’s a no-frills option, but it comes with three stainless steel color-coded blades that performed very well in our lab tests.

Best hand-held Spiralizer

OXO 3-Blade Hand-Held Spiralizer

OXO 3-Blade Hand-Held Spiralizer

Our top handheld pick comes from Oxo for its accuracy, versatility, and reliably user-friendly design. Similar to the countertop model, this hand-held model comes with 3 colored blades that can be neatly and safely stored.

Best Spiralizer for storage

Paderno is a well known brand when it comes to spiralizers and it remains a top performer in our Lab tests. Our favorite model is the 4-blade spiralizer, which is at under $30 is very affordable. 

Aside from terrific blade performance and ease of use, we loved that this spiralizer safely folds down into one piece (although this can make setting it up slightly slower). Three blades are stored in compartment drawers and whilst one blade is left attached, however, unlike other brands, the blade insert safely folds down into an internal compartment, making it compact and safe to store as one piece.

Most compact Spiralizer

If you’re short on space or spiralizing for one, a hand-held spiralizer could be your best solution. Our lab recommends this Adoric model, which is also a bargain pick at under $13. There’s no need to switch out blades as it alternates between noodle thickness with the click of a button.

Best Spiralizer for hard vegetables

Spiral-Ultra Multi-Blade Spiralizer

With its vertical alignment, this Mueller model performed favorably in our hard vegetable tests because it’s easier to exert pressure downwards than sideways. We also loved that you’re not left with a long vegetable core due to the central stability core design that pierces the produce rather than coring it. 

For those worried about mess, it comes with a handy collection insert, complete with measurement markings (although we would prefer something larger as it quickly overflowed). If you’re looking for a multi-functional product, this also comes with a juicer attachment, mandolin slicer and grater.

Best Spiralizer for Salads

Click-N-Curl Spiralizer Set

Due to its cone-shaped design, we found the Kuhn Rikon hand-held model worked well with the typically easier to find, thinner carrots. We appreciated that the cones easily click onto the top-performing “Y” and Julienne vegetable peelers. The flat peeler makes noodles and the julienne peeler makes flat ribbons.
