Gramercy Mandoline Slicer for Kitchen with 12 Slice Settings, Black Edition

Amazing kitchen helper! This mandoline makes slicing soooo very easy but beware!! The blade is extremely sharp, but it should be, so use caution. It comes with cut resistant gloves, which I think is a wonderful idea. Notice I said cut resistant. Not cut proof. So still use caution. But this is the best gadget I've bought in a long time. My husband loves it too!! We grow vegetables, so when harvest comes in, canning is so much easier. I can't say enough about this. And the price is right, too. It comes with instruction book, cut resistant gloves and a veggie holder for when you get down to the "nub" of the veggie you're slicing, and a blade guard, and a toothbrush for deep cleaning. But just follow directions, and the bade comes out for dishwasher cleaning. The thickness knob on the side is also so helpful. Now you can adjust your thicknesses by just turning the knob. No more guessing! I absolutely love this tool!!

OMG, this device is a kitchen game changer! I've always had good experiences with the Gramercy brand. Their quality is excellent, and it's German made from durable, high-quality metal. I've owned it for about two weeks now and have used it on apples, carrots, potatoes, ham, and a whole host of other fruits and vegetables. It has performed exceptionally well every single time. It arrived very well packaged and even included a pair of protective gloves—a nice touch! It has a removable blade protector, the blades are easy to change, and the cutting thickness is simple to adjust. Of course, it slices beautifully, (duh!) but it also juliennes, which is perfect for recipes that call for matchstick vegetables or fruits, especially Asian dishes. I recently used it to slice ham for canapés, and it produced perfectly thin, even slices. One feature I especially appreciate is the large food holder that covers the mandolin from side to side, so there's no exposed blade while you're slicing. It has retractable spikes that securely grip the food, which is a huge help since I have psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and my grip isn't what it used to be. Both sides of the mandolin have slightly raised safety edges to help prevent your hand from slipping toward the blade. (Ouch!) The adjustment knob for selecting the cutting style and thickness is easy to read and use. When you're finished, it folds flat for compact storage, and cleanup is a literal breeze. You can either hand wash (this protects the sharpness of the blades) or drop it in your dishwasher. This has truly been a game changer for me on two levels: It has cut my kitchen prep time down to just minutes., and it allows me to prep without asking family member for help. If you're on the fence, I'd definitely recommend giving Gramercy a try. They make high-quality, European-made products that are built to last.

Would be 5 stars, but it was missing a glove (I’ll explain this importance below). Also, I bought it new. However, it came inside of an Amazon box, and then inside another box where a shipping label was clearing removed and it had another sticker on the box that said UPS return and a return barcode inside in second box incase shipping label was damaged. So for the missing glove. I was upset because I couldn’t figure out how to contact the seller and the stupid computer support was no help. I didn’t want to go through the hassle of returning it for a missing glove (probably what the previous person returned it for), and my husband said “it’s fine, you should only need one anyway. You can buy another pair if you want.” Fine. I’ll just buy a pair of gloves and keep it because it did look unused. Well, I got it two nights ago, and my husband used it last night to slice cucumbers to make pickles. Well, it slipped and went to fall off the table. My husband went to catch it, with his UNGLOVED hand. Yup, you can probably figure out that he cut himself. He basically cut off a whole fingertip. After we got him cleaned and bandaged up (probably should have went to the hospital) he said “I guess you do need both gloves.” Wear the gloves, both, just in case. Hopefully you’ll get both gloves with your order. I’ll be ordering a few pair, as the one glove we did get is now in the garbage covered in blood. It’s an awesome mandolin though. Super sharp. Just be careful when using and cleaning.

This is a terrific slicer. It can be folded up intakes little room in my cabinet. The blade is super sharp and I sliced a bunch of cucumbers on it in less than 20 seconds. They were so clean. It was way better than slicing with a knife. I can’t wait to try other vegetables on it.

This mandolin is amazing. I replaced a much cheaper, plastic version. It is extremely sharp, has so many settings and easy to clean. Gloves are also included to help in reducing potential injuries. I used it to slice eggplant for rollatini, o ions and cucumbers for a summer salad and for French fries. Worth the money

Bought this back in November to prep fruit for my dehydrator, and it's the reason the dehydrator finally gets used right. The whole point of dehydrating is even thickness. If one banana slice is paper thin and the next is a quarter inch, they don't finish at the same time and you get some leathery, some still tacky. I'd been doing it with a chef's knife and a hand peeler before, never consistent. This fixed it the first night. It's been about six months now, two or three times a week, so this isn't a honeymoon review. Mostly bananas, potatoes, apples, the stuff I started with. The stainless steel feels heavier and more solid than I expected at this price. The legs fold out and it actually stays put on the counter instead of skating around like I worried it would. Blade's sharp right out of the box. Sharp enough that I respect it. It comes with cut-resistant gloves and a blade guard, and you should use them, I'm not being dramatic. A mandoline will take a fingertip before you register what happened. That's the one real warning I'd give: not something to hand a kid, and I keep mine stored up high. Cleanup's easy, a rinse and a quick scrub. What surprised me is how much I reach for it beyond the dehydrating now. Thin potato for gratin, cucumber for salads, onion when I don't feel like crying through dinner prep. It quietly became the tool I grab first. If you already own a good knife and you're hesitating, I was that person. The difference is consistency and speed, not whether the job gets done. For me it earned its spot. Five stars.

It's good and sharp but DOES NOT Make ACTUAL waffle cut fries like the pictures show, the waffle blade just isn't big enough, you wind up with ridges or waves.

This was my first time using a mandolin. I had so much fun trying it out and learning how to use it. My shaved asparagus salad turned out great. I was even able to use the mandolin to slice my green onion (the white part) on a bias and paper thin. My asparagus was beautifully cut on a bias as well and I have to admit it’s really the prettiest salad I’ve ever made. I can’t wait to try using my mandolin for other dishes as well. I love that the safety glove is included. The brush comes in handy for cleaning the nooks and crannies of the machine. I had some trouble removing the blade thinking that the blade pulled out and I figured out that it lifted up. A great machine. I highly recommend it for anyone.

The blades aren't as sharp as it needs to be to ensure smooth cutting operations. Also it leaves our a significant bit towards the end that there is no way of cutting. Creates either a lot of waste or makes it time consuming the cut the last bit or dangerous of you try to do it by hand without the guide.

Oggetto molto utile, tagli precisi e facilitā di utilizzo

Sind sehr zufrieden. Wenn man mal raushat wie der Gemüsehobel wieder eingesetzt wird alles super.

Good product fast delivery thanks

Love how veggies get sliced like it's butter, those gloves are handy as well for protection.
