Japanese Vegetable Slicer, Old Version

Got this based on the recommendation of a friend that cooks a lot. This replaced a MUCH more expensive one that broke. This mandolin is very simple, VERY sharp, easy to clean, and compact- it fits in any drawer in the kitchen. If I could change anything about this it would be the ability to cut THICKER slices. This can go from PAPER THIN to REGULAR THIN. I’ve notice after owning this that it is what I see on tv in every professional kitchen!

Best veg slicer you’ll buy. 100% easiest slicer to clean, no nooks or voids spaces for food to hide, extremely sharp blades. It’s just plain and simple, nothing fancy at all. My one complaint is, there’s no crinkle cut blade.

Works like a charm. Wear gloves for safety. Slices raw banana, potato like a charm. Saves time manually slicing vegetables. Built sturdy.

This is a high quality product. It is compact without sacrificing features. I bought this mostly for cucumber slices for dipping in hummus. My main issue was that the blade height is low, so the slices were a bit too thin for dipping. I added (2) washers to raise the blade for a thicker cut and had great results. The default max slice thickness is 2.7mm but two 1.1mm thick washers (MAX thickness) can be inserted below the main blade for the equivalent added thickness to cuts. Just note that the blade will be very tight once the washers are in place so may require “knocking” it out. I think this modification will be great for potatoes as well. Really happy with the product.

This is a nice little mandolin. It is very sharp. It has a couple of extra blades for different types of cuts. A little screw on the underside raises and lowers the shelf to change the thickness of cuts and to also allow it to be stored safely. It is easy to figure out how to use. My biggest complaint is that it doesn't have a stand, so it is a bit awkward to use at times. Other than that, I will continue to use.

This totally lives up to the hype. Besides being stupid easy to store and clean, it lets you dial in how thing you want your veggies. I've used mandolins before but often you're stuck with certain sizes. 3mm, 6mm, etc. This one you can dial in exactly how thin you want your veggies and with the extra blades, exactly what shape/form. It really makes for some unique things I may not have done otherwise when it comes to using certain veggies as garnishes. Overall we've had this for 6 months or so and it's held up to everything we've thrown at it. In the picture is red cabbage that without a nice sharp knife, can be a tough one to cut, especially to cut into equal sizes, and this handled it perfectly. I find myself using veggies I shied away from before because of its ease of us. This is 100% an excellent addition to your kitchen, doesn't take up a ton of space, will make you better when it comes to creativity and what you use in your cook, especially garnishment or anything where you want things get super small, and looks great! Probably it's best attribute is it's simple to use. a couple screws, swap out a blade, another screw dials in thickness. it's about as easy as it gets. Just watch your hands! The blades are sharp!

This is an amazing slicer. My parents had one that has lasted 30 years. I love how the handle attachment fits on the slicer. The OG!
