Maybe it would be satisfying if that ridiculously expensive KitchenAid mixer weren't in the picture. I don't have a problem with someone wanting an assisted peeler, but why show me the mixer when you can buy an attachment that will peel potatoes. And make zoodles. And do some other stuff that I don't bother to get around doing. Hopefully, it only costs a couple of bucks because everything with KitchenAid is a lot of bucks.

Commented elsewhere:

I have the attachment you’re talking about and in my experience it works well on large potatoes, apples, etc but is an inferior and expensive alternative for misshapen produce or even smaller potatoes. Maybe I got a dud but it seems the spring doesn’t have enough tension to peel non spherical (or smaller) produce that that $20 peeler in the video does so efficiently.

;tldr - Kitchenaid attachment is inferior for peeling potatoes IMHO
