Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have used many differnt brands and styles of mandolines and this is by far my favorite. I use it most often for making scalloped potatoes (until I got this one, my husband called them bloody scalloped potatoes) and it is just great. I like the fact that the blade isn't exposed until you pull on the handle and I like that the blades are fixed (less chance of cuts). I generally just use the thinnest settings, but it does have a little button you slide to change the settings for thicker slices. It is also nice to be able to see through the mandoline to what you are slicing into the bowl ( the runway area is see through). I did notice if you slice onto a plate rather than a bowl, the vegetables can get stuck in the slicer as the veggies build up. Less chance of this when using a deeper bowl.

A fast, safe, and efficient way to prepare fruits and vegetables, this innovative food slicer makes a smart addition to any kitchen collection. The unit's razor-sharp, serrated stainless-steel cutting blade slices effortlessly through a variety of produce--from thick carrots, potatoes, and parsnips to tomatoes, apples, soft kiwi, berries, cucumbers, and more--perfect for whipping together healthful afternoon snacks, colorful salads, and a host of delicious main dishes. Accompanied by a handy food holder, whose miniature "teeth" firmly grip chunks or whole pieces of fruit or vegetables while slicing, the unit ensures that fingers and hands remain far from the cutting blade during use. Furthermore, its patented retractable blade-guard mechanism eliminates the dangers of traditional slicers, paring knives, and other cutting implements, operating with the simple touch of a button to lock a plastic guard over the blade for injury-free use. Anchored by non-slip rubber feet that won't skip or move across the countertop, the slicer's collapsible stand enables compact storage in a cupboard or drawer. Additional highlights include a unique thickness selector that allows for choosing between different-size slices, a transparent runway for easy viewing of the results, and a wide design that can be suspended over a bowl or platter for added convenience. The food slicer measures approximately 14 by 5-1/2 by 2-1/5 inches when collapsed and carries a five-year limited warranty.
