Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Cut thick slices of apple for pies, or veggies for stir fries. Slice potatoes thinly for homemade chips, or cabbage for cole slaw. Shred carrots for salad, or julienne, or cube, or dice. With a helpful set of instructions and three cutters, this machine yields professional looking, uniform results, at great speed and without much work on your part.

Discount Shopping Review:
An inexpensive alternative to a professional stainless-steel mandoline, this device makes it possible to quickly, uniformly, and safely slice and julienne vegetables and fruits. It also shreds cabbage and neatly dices potatoes, tomatoes, and onions. For safety, a holder firmly grips food with stainless-steel prongs so fingers are protected from the German surgical-steel blades, and the three inserts accompanying the device lock in position. The inserts act as a guide for slicing against the V-frame's knife that reverses to create slices either 1/4-inch or 1/16-inch thick and two julienne inserts for creating 1/8-inch or 3/8-inch strips. For storage, the V-frame, all three inserts, and the safety holder fit into a caddy that can stand upright on the counter, lie flat in a drawer, or hang on the wall. Made of rugged plastic, the device measures 15 inches long and 6 inches wide when assembled for storage. --Fred Brack

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - VERY UNRELIABLE & GROSSLY OVERPRICED FOR PLASTIC.
Upon reading other reviews I placed order for this unit. When it arrived I was dismayed at what you get for this money. Upon using I became more dismayed as the unit is almost impossible to use. The food drags on the slide. Using the holder helps move the food but it only cuts about half way down and then you are left with the other half to cut by hand with a knife and cutting board. Kind of defeats the purpose. Plastic is flimsy and distorts when food is pushed through causing irregular cuts. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - V Slicer
Purchased for my self, it was exactly what it was advertised to be. I found it very easy to use, assemble, and store. I used it the first time to dice onion. No mess! Easy clean up!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Slice and julienne wth ease; save $$$ on your grocery bill
I purchased this mandolin slicer after seeing it on the Food Network. For the price, this is an excellent slicer. I know there are mandolins on the market for $200 or more but I don't have any need to spend more money. This slicer does everything I need.

Slice vegetables and fruits thick or thin. The holder protects your fingers from the sharp blade. The one tip to remember is that you don't want to overload the slicer. Keep the vegetable and fruit pieces manageable and you won't have any ... Read More

After a year and 6 months this unit remains sharp as new.It slices onions,celery cucumbers,tomatoes,carrots & potatoes in the blink of an eye.It makes short work of piles of veggies every time we make soups and/or salads.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - BUY this NOW if you have limited hand mobility
For once, I've got somehting that WORKS. My food processor (a really good KitchenAid), is going to my daughter in law.

Hooo Boy it's SHARP. For the first time I have a tool than can slice tomatoes without squishing 'em.

I use it just about every day.

Wonderful.
