Gourmet Mandoline Slicer

This review is for an older version of this product

Being somewhat accident prone with anything with sharp edges I've tended to treat mandolins with caution since they nearly always need the blades to be changed for different slice thicknesses. This one has proved to be terrific and I've been using it daily since it arrived. Firstly only one blade and slice thickness is altered by slider, secondly can be tilted or laid over plate or pan and thirdly extremely easy to wash. It is sturdy and very user friendly and I do recommend

Having given my previous mandolin to the children (and regretted it) I found I could not manage with a simple slicer. This is brilliant because there are no sets of blades to change manually - and store. The thickness switch on the side appears to be a little flimsy - we'll see how it goes but for the moment - well pleased.

I was a bit wary about spending so much money, as I have a spiralizer sitting in the back of my cupboard that I got fed up of using after a week. I needn't have worried, this is fantastic. Really easy to use and clean, well worth the cost.
