I am totally satisfied with this product! I've had two other mandolins, more expensive and much harder to figure out and use, much less to clean! This is so much simpler to use, to clean, and cuts uniformly at just the right thickness. I definatly would recommend it to a friend. In fact, I am considering ordering one for my daughter!

Finally, a product that says it will julienne does the job!
I have tried 3 other tools from other places and this is the first that really works. Not only that, it gives you three sizes.

I received the slicer promptly expecting run-of-the-mill. But no. Used intelligently this product not only delivers but is quick efficient and easy clean-up. I would buy again from Chefs.

I bought 4 of these things for Christmas and one for myself.
I USE IT EVERY DAY. If you have a salad at dinner or any time, it is wonderful for daily small projects. Cukes/carrots/potatoes etc.

A great product, the size is just perfect. I have a large professional mandolin and is very uncomfortable to use for small jobs.

This is the best Mandoline I have ever owned. In 50 years of cooking, this one is it. It is very simple to use and it stores easily. I can't say enough about it.

I love this product. It is replacing my older Mandoline that I purchased from a cooking party. My old one had too many blades and was clumsy. This new one has everything I need built inside so I don't have to store seperate blades and fuss with them. It cuts three different sized slices and also has the Julienne which is all I need. It's simple, easy to use and perfect. I have a large food processor if I need something more than these standard cuts. Could not find anything like it at our local stores. Good value-

This item is great for slicing soft items such as onions or squash...but you have to want it very thin. I wanted to julienne carrots and parsnip and it completely failed. The finger guard just kept sliding off the veggies and the 'spikes' ended up shredding them instead of pushing them through the slicers.
I like the ease of using the adjustment button, but at least on mine, the first level wasn't even above the base so that's of no use at all. The second level barely brought the blade up high enough, so level three is very thin.

I am disappointed in the mandoline. It does not slice tomatoes very nice and the gaurd for the fruit is hard to handle. The thinnest setting doesn't work for me at all. Maybe it will get better is I try and use it more.

Dull blade and thickness adjustment does not work

This looked like the perfect mandoline. The adjustment does not work properly. While there are 3 thickness adjustments, it only worked for no thickness and the maximum thickness. The blades was so dull it tore the vegetables instead of slicing. If the thickness adjustment worked properly and blade was razor sharp it would be perfect.

A worthy substitute for the pricier mandolin. It produces good results on all settings but the thickness can vary a bit depending on how much pressure you put onto it. The guard is very, very good, much better than on my $300 mandolin, it holds the food securely and there is minimal waste. This is easy to clean and much easier to store than the larger mandolin and I use it all the time now and have bought more as gifts.

This mandoline is a great time saver and the best part practically no teary eyes when preparing onions. I like the ease of selecting the size of the vegetables for a salad, slaw, or adding pizazz to the humble burger!

Bought this great gadget for slicing so don't have to get food processor out. Wow is it great. Love the julienne cutting feature with just a flip of the knob.
Like the safety switch to protect from sharp blade when not in use. for the money, this is a handy and useful tool that no kitchen should be without.

This product is not only effective for several slicing thicknesses, but the cleanup is a breeze! Easy prep, because there is no lugging out heavy food processors. It is quick and the cleanup is so simple.

This mandoline works very well. It is simple and easy to use without having a bunch of blades and separate pieces to store. This is a nice compact tool and it slices perfect slices to fit your need.
