The v-slicer is one of the best buys we have made for canning. We have been canning pickles and in the past we had to slice the cucumber's with a knife as we like thin sliced hamburger dills and bread & butter pickles and this slicer worked excellent and made the process so much eaiser. I highly recommed this product.
Great for slicing and dicing - a very handy, very sharp tool that I use a lot.
This slicer gave 14 years of faithful service, until the heating element on the dishwasher got the better of it. After about 12 years, the blade started to dull a bit, so it was probably time for a new one anyway. I mostly use it to slice onions and cucumbers, and it does a great job shredding lettuce for tacos.
Does the job its supposed to. Nothing to rave about, but has a good blade set. Its been two years and still going strong
Recently my daughter and I decided to cook a gourmet meal together to celebrate my birthday. This one, made in Germany, is inexpensive and effective. Arrange one layer in fan form, slather with butter, sprinkle on sea salt and white pepper and then start all over again.
We needed consistently thin slices of potato, and at the gourmet cooking class we took, the instructor used a mandoline to accomplish this. You absolutely must use the safety holder included or you may very well slice off the tip of a finger as one of my friends did with another brand. One of our dishes was Potatoes Anna.
At the meal the potatoes were a beautiful and unusual side dish, which everyone (even our non-gourmet husbands) enjoyed. So I ordered this amazing tool. In no time at all I had evenly sliced five pounds of potatoes.
If you enjoy cooking and entertaining, you should have one in your kitchen. Cook on.
