2) The easy pop in and out of the various slicers is not to be taken for granted. What a mistake. With no special treatment and sometimes abusing it the blades are still sharper than ever. Well on other brands if it works at all it destroys half the onion and is quite hard to push through.
I just recently bought another slicer that is almost similar in look and design but not the same as I couldn't find this one in the store. I have had my V-slicer for over 15 years and it still works as good as the day I took it out of the box. Others require way more effort to change out the blades. I put mine in a drawer lying flat and can whip it out and within a minute have anything I want chopped, sliced or diced.I know this sounds like I work for this company but I don't. I have come to appreciate some of the features that make this one special.
3) The small chopping blade which I frequently use for onions works effortlessly. It's just a fabulous product and deserves the 5 stars. I put them in the dishwasher sometimes and sometimes I just wash them myself. I would never have thought it could be different until I saw if for myself. 1) The blades are situated so that most of your food will be sliced or chopped unlike some others that sit lower.
Use your food holder and you don't have to worry about cutting yourself. 4) The cleanup and storage is so easy. I am a lazy cook and this simple gadget does the trick without electricity or too much fuss.
For me, in the morning, I slice my cucumbers thin and tomatoes thick and it works great. I searched through many reviews of slicers on amazon and other sites and decided to go with this one. It makes fast work of slicing all kinds of vegetables. You'll need one of the higher priced with the knob for that. I found out the hard way. I use it to slice tomatoes and it does it so much faster than I every could and they are uniform thickness.
It's great for slicing potatoes for stew and just cooking. I love it. Takes no time to flip the insert over to switch between them.I use this for many things. As I'm getting ready for work in the morning I can slice 2 or 3 vegetables in no time and clean up is nice and quick. If you need more variance than thick or thin, this isn't the slicer for you. Since they are uniform they all get done at the same time.**One Caveat: this blade is SHARP.
I actually slice a little bit of the end of my finger off and didn't realize it until later as it is so sharp.
This is an excellent product. Unlike most junk you can get for kitchens that usually ends up in a closet somewhere, this little thing stays right next to my stove and I use it every day.I can dice an onion in 10 seconds and not even tear up. I love this thing.
I bought others and they didn't compare. this is the simplist and the best. The v blade is better than the straight.
I love this mandoline. I also used it for apples and itwas a cinch to get even perfect slices. It is well-made and really gets the job done.I am getting food ready for the dehydrator and it gives me uniformslices fast.it is easy to use and cleans up easily. The carrotsdid stain it but it's going to be a little workhorse tool I will useoften and it's a small detail to me. I'm sold. I only wonder why I waited so long to purchase this useful tool.
