 A Good Starter MandolinAug 04, 2009
By N. Chandler
Compared to some of the other plastic, lower cost mandolins the Super Benriner feels much sturdier than most and delivers in all the necessary areas. The blades are sharp and decent quality, the size is perfect for most general kitchen uses and the four blades give the average cook all that they will need. Along with some basic steps in care, such as washing and drying the unit and blades right after use, the Benriner should last it's price.
This unit does not have those "handy" legs like some of the others and I feel that makes it sturdier but it also means you don't have that convenience (I prefer sturdy over convenient). There aren't any "no skid" pads on the bottom edges so you need to create your own sturdy blocking (I run mine up against a large wooden cutting block which works fine but this is one improvement I would like to see on the unit). The slot for the 3 changeable blades is easy enough to figure out but one really needs to tighten the two "holder" screws tight or the blade will slide out while cutting (not a safe thing to happen on a mandolin). The method (two screws) for setting the cutting height is a bit cumbersome but I think this is another place where sturdiness wins over convenience in a lower-end device.
So, the only two things I'd like to see changed on this unit are the addition of some "no-skid" rubber edges and a more effective and easier way to secure the interchangeable blades.
Overall, a good lower-end, starter mandolin.

 Not sure what's up with the name in this listingJan 30, 2008
By orangekay
Whatever Amazon's calling it, this is in fact the "Super Benriner"--big brother to the regular Benriner. What's different? Well, it's beige instead of green, it has metal adjustment and blade holder knobs, and it's much, much wider. Cuts like a dream, but the hand guard is still something of a joke and a Kevlar glove would be a good idea regardless of how careful you think you might be.
My one complaint is that the white-ish plastic stains pretty easily. Carrots will leave a big orange smear on the surface.

The middle pathJan 19, 2010
By Jimmy Be Free
"Jimmy Free"
If you are willing to spend $100-$200 you can get a fine French mandolin that works well. If you try to save too much and buy a Taiwanese model for $10 you will get frustrated trying to use it. The Benrinner is the perfect middle path. It is plastic yes, but it is made in the same country that makes Honda. This thing really works. The blades are high quality and the plastic is tough and durable.
I buy these by the case from quickspice and sell them to friends.
One note. Alway, always, always where a glove. Mandolins are famous for slicing fingers. i use the blue rubber coated ones, again, you could spend more for one designed for cut protection but I find the blue rubber coated gloves to work just fine.
peace,
Jimmy

Does what it should.Jun 24, 2009

This item is very handy for consistent slicing every time. The safety handle is not very effective so watch your fingers! I use it often and wouldn't be without it.

Great BuySep 22, 2009
By Ryan J. Fountain
I bought this item for our hotel. The cooks asked for it specifically, as it is the sharpest out there. I came to Amazon because they were able to get it to me for less than half of what Wasserstrom and our local foodservice distributer could get it for. Made me look good!
