00:00Cherries season is short, and pitting them one by one by hand is honestly the worst part of any pie
00:05or jam day.
00:06So I went down the rabbit hole and found the best deals on the top 5 tools to quickly pit
00:10cherries, and I'm breaking them all down right now.
00:14First up is this portable cherry pitter that does way more than cherries.
00:18It's basically a little squeeze tool that punches the pit right out, and people also use it on olives, so
00:23it's earning its keep.
00:25It's just $4.06 and has sold nearly 4,900 times with a 4.7 rating.
00:31For that price, it's a no-brainer starter tool if you just want to pit a bowl of cherries without
00:36wrecking your fingers.
00:38Number 2 is a multifunction corer and pitter that's aimed squarely at home kitchens.
00:43The nice thing here is versatility, because it handles cherries, jujubes, and red dates, so it's not a one-trick
00:49pony.
00:50It's $4.12, just a few cents more, with over 4,300 sold and the same 4.7 rating.
00:57If you cook with dried fruit too, this one gives you the most use for almost nothing.
01:02Third is this press-type pit remover, and I like it because the squeeze action feels quick and controlled, so
01:08you're less likely to squash the fruit.
01:10It's built for quick pit removal on cherries and jujubes, and it's $4.90 with 4,384 sold and a
01:174.7 rating.
01:19If speed matters and you're pitting a big batch for canning, this one's worth the small upgrade.
01:24Fourth is a creative little olive and cherry piper with the highest rating on the list.
01:29It's a multifunctional quick-squeeze tool, and that 4.8 rating tells you people are genuinely happy with it.
01:36It's $4.41 with 3,884 sold.
01:41Honestly, reviewers love it, so if you want the best-rated option for under 5 bucks, this is the one
01:47I'd grab first.
01:48Fifth isn't a pitter at all, but it belongs here because it solves the same problem for chestnuts and nuts.
01:54It's a stainless steel clip that cracks chestnut and peanut shells fast, and it saves your thumbs from the usual
02:00knife and prayer routine.
02:01It's $5.49 with 3,147 sold and a 4.6 rating.
02:08If you're prepping chestnuts alongside your cherries, it's a handy companion tool.
02:13So there you go, 5 cheap tools that'll save you a ton of time this cherry season.
