 Better than a stationary mandoline for small jobsApr 07, 2008
By C. G. King
This thing is great! I've tried several mandolines--from the top-of-the-line unit to an inexpensive, but highly rated V-slicer, and another handheld. I sent the former back, gave the V-slicer away and the handheld broke. None of them served my purpose. All the blade changing and/or adjusting with the stationary mandolines was awkward and a lot of trouble considering I wasn't cooking for a restaurant--I just wanted to make salads for one or two, or a variety of other things, but usually in rather small quantities. This slicer is perfect. Now I can slice a leek, a carrot and part of a cucumber directly onto my salad in seconds. I can slice beets or other veggies very quickly and conveniently directly into the pot. The large knob on the bottom of this unit turns easily to create the desired slice thickness and a quick swish and rinse leaves it clean for the next time. I get high-end mandoline quality slices from the super sharp blade, but without all the set up and clean up time. This unit is sturdy and reliable. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Between this and my Alligator dicer, my fruit and vegetable ingredients look professionally prepared and are done in a flash.

This useful tool has been great for helping process summer bounty, most especially with getting the kernels off corncobs so they can be frozen. I've tried other products for that, but they are not satisfactory, where this tool allows me to run the cob down against the blade and in a few passes, all the kernels are in the bowl. I can do several ears in only a few minutes. I use one of those 'Kevlar' gloves to make sure I don't cut myself and it works great. Microplane 34007 Cut Resistant Glove

Great slicer..Sep 19, 2008
By Nancy S.
This is my first time to purchase and use a mandoline slicer. I decided upon this particular brand after reading many reviews, such as this one, before I decided to buy. I am happy with my choice. This slicer is well-made, easy to use, and easy to clean. I like the fact that there is no switching blades to adjust to different thicknesses. I am pleased with this product.

Great slicerJul 16, 2008
By Deborah L. Welsh
"No Cal Gal"
This slicer works great, only 2 parts, just rinse when finished. Have been using it for a week and not disappointed at all. Great product and makes salads, sandwiches etc look so much more appealing then my old hand done cuts. Everything the other 2 reviewers said I agree. I too just received the Alligator Dicer (thanks to the first reviewer) and can't wait to try it out.

I love this!!!!!!!!Nov 17, 2008
By Thomas J. Callahan
I am on weight watchers and have been trying to find something to make baked vegetable chips. I was using a potato peeler and it was grueling. I just sliced a rutabaga up in minutes. Yea, don't used rutabagas for chips, but it was the only vegetable I had left because it was not worth slicing up with the potato peeler. Anyway, this product is excellent.

Don't think, just buyJan 08, 2009
By Emily
Stop wasting your time comparing mandolines. Seriously, have you heard of opportunity cost? :) I've already wasted enough of my time for you. The thing that makes this one stand out is it's small footprint, portability, and great design. It's not a kitchen utensil that feels like a hassle to use -- it's just like pulling out the vegetable peeler. I love that you can sit it on top of bowls to cut veggies right into the dish you're making. It's grippy, so it doesn't slide around. I absolutely hate hand washing, but this is SO easy to clean that I wash it and stick it back in the cabinet before dinner's even ready. It's very sharp, too (in fact, my husband suggested kevlar gloves...just in case).
