BenrinerProfessional Japanese Horizontal Turning Slicer with Three Interchangeable Blades, White BN-7W, ABS Plastic

is not good, because its exellent! big help for me on my every day mise en place. thanks

I’m so happy with a product, I can’t describe how easy to use quick in task. If need to sharpen the blade just screw out, and again back to the life

Excellent and very sharp. Easy to adjust as well as to clean. I can cut potatoes paper thin. Well-made and recommended.

Very happy with this slicer.

I looked at lots of fancy mandolines here on Amazon, but this is the original and it works like a dream. You can feel the Japanese engineering--simple, sturdy and well-made. Removing and changing blades is intuitive and easy, and the blades are frighteningly sharp. Ease of cleaning was key for me, because if a cooking tool is a pain to clean I stop using it. This is very easy to clean and dry. Be careful with colored vegetables like carrots. Get the mandoline in hot, soapy water immediately after using so it won't stain the light almond color. Lightly scrub with a nylon brush and you're good to go. Lots of attachments, and they all work great. Pro tip: Splurge and get the mesh gloves. You don't want to tear your hands up on this crazy sharp blade!

Was tossing between the 3.5 inches or this size. After spoke with two other chefs, they both strongly recommend to get the 5 inch one ( for daily industry use). The extra width comes in handy.Love it every second, *watch your fingers*.

This is nice and easy to use but watch that you don't slice your fingers, it's very sharp. I used it to prepare fruit and vegetables for dehydration and it worked very well for this purpose. Larger vegetables like squash have to be cut into smaller pieces first, but it is fine for even larger size apples. I did not try it with softer fruit like plums, mangoes, or tomatoes, but I think it would be fine as the blades are very sharp, as long as the pits are removed first. You could also use this for making your own potato or yam chips. It is easy to use over a large bowl or pot to catch things in.It seems to be fairly durably made and you can get replacement blades for it, so I expect to get a good number of years of use out of it.
