Gourmet Mandoline Slicer 5 "Perfectly sharp and perfectly safe - great value." Sheila Burton 23 August 2019 I'm so pleased I ditched a cheaper, fiddly slicer and invested in this one. It slices so thinly and easily.. I made boulangere potatoes as soon as it arrived.. just because I could!And the blades dont even need to be changed to switch from slices to Julianne, with three thicknesses for each. A sensible holder that doesn't slip and holds decent sized potatoes or onions. I'm a fan !!
Gourmet Mandoline Slicer 5 "This shxt is SHARP" Miss Carty 22 August 2019 The paper thin slices of potato are so dreamy. When I first used this properly I didn't think it was working, the blade is so sharp you don't feel it slice. I'm used to cheap mandolins that you have to put effort into. Long story short, I didn't bother with the blade guard because it was a bit fiddly. ALWAYS USE THE BLADE GUARD OR BLADE GLOVES because spent hours in A&E getting my thumb glued after slicing beautifully thin potatoes for a Potato (and thumb) gratin. So sharp it went clean through my nail and half my thumb. 5/5 stars, would recommend, even slices raw meat apparently ;) A note from the team Many thanks for placing your review. We're really sorry to hear about your unfortunate accident. We'd always recommend using the blade guard every time you use the slicer.
Gourmet Mandoline Slicer 5 "Real time saver" Sheila Topham 27 September 2018 It takes a little while to get the technique right so you do get even slices but once you do, this saves so much time. There is also very little waste as the holder retracts as the veg is sliced. Cleaning it is quick, easy and safe - all in all a very useful addition to the kitchen kit.
