Customer Reviews

Excellent!
This is pure perfection for the price. The thickness dial is great...you can slice very thinly or thickly. Makes great breakfast potatoes, slice ginger perfectly & makes a great cucumber salad. I loved it so much I purchased 4 more for gifts. Love it!

This is a gadget that every salad lover should have
This is a great stainless steel slicer that every salad lover should have. It is small and handy and I use it directly over the individual salad bowls. I use it every day to slice cucumber and carrots for my salad. You can adjust it from thin to thick and it does an excellent job. I throw it into my dishwasher and it's easy to maintain. I've used it almost every day for over 2 years and the blades are still very sharp, and have not dulled any bit. It takes up very little space in my kitchen drawer and affords a lot of use.

Almost What I Wanted
In fact, it's a little tricky to use this as a hand-held device; I'd suggest using it only when it's securely placed over a small bowl. The actual cutting area is a bit narrower than I'd expected, and I'd hoped for a setting that would allow slightly thicker slices as well. Great idea - I bought it, didn't I? - but not really what the doctor ordered....
