OXO Good Grips Handheld Mandoline Slicer

This is honestly fantastic and makes slicing vegetables and fruits a breeze. The safety grips make a difference as they have curved sides, meaning the chance of accidents minimizes as your fingers are protected.

I love Oxo Good Grips products for their quality and price, so when I wanted a good mandoline slicer, I chose Oxo for that too. I really only wanted a simple gadget mainly to slice potatoes thinly for dauphinoise potatoes, I was not disappointed. The slicer works well, giving uniform slices of potatoes, and now that I have got used to it, I will be using it for a lot more slicing jobs. The thickness of the slice is also very easy to adjust. However, the blade is SHARP (very sharp), so rather that just use the blade guard, I also used a mesh metal glove to ensure my fingertips remained intact. The scaredy cat in me didn't trust myself to wash it without cutting myself either, so into the dishwasher it went, and all was great. I love the mandoline slicer - I will get lots of use out of it, but I would suggest using the metal mesh glove. I know it will last me ages, and have no hesitation in recommending it as an essential kitchen tool.

This is not bad at all. We had a previous one which sliced into box but it didn't last long. We merely chose this because of the reviews and the quality holds up. It can be awkward to keep still at times however it's very well made and I'm to worried about this breaking easily. Slices well and washes easily. Good.

Second time buying (for family member who liked mine) I have the same one that is probably 8 years old if bot older. Still sharp and works perfectly. Photos of the old one attached

Wow. I decided in my infinite wisdom that I needed a mandoline (after all, who doesn't?!). I actually just bought this for making ratatouille, which was amazing, and nicked my finger of the edge a tiny big (my own fault) - ouch! But was great to use and clean in the dishwaasher. The next day I decided to make a vegetarian lasagna, and therefore wanted to make long strips of courgette. Looking back I should have cut the courgette in half lengthways before subjecting it to my beginner mandoline culinary skills. I didn't, got distracted, didn't use the guard and whilst talking to my son, encountered the blade up and very personal with my thumb. Like love, the sting was sharp and the bleeding profuse - I held it above my my head which ran down my arm and freaked out my 6yr old who decided I needed an ambulance. I didn't, but boy the really thumb bleeds a lot! It looked like I had a crimson viper coiling it's way around and up/down my arm. Nothing seemed to help (and I had no steristrips), so I held it aloft, applied pressure til it was the calmest it could be and smeared it with superglue (my thumb not the mandoline). Eventually it healed/ stopped looking like I'd cut a major artery, and when everything was calm enough I removed the superglue (released the blood blister that had built up, steri-stripped the sides together (thank you husband) and glued the edges. Everything's good! Steri-Strips Skin Closures x 8 Loctite 0000602 Super Glue Tube - 3 g That is until I came to use it again today and found that at 5am my husband in his infinite wisdom, had decided to make toast with the mandoline on top - so it's now melted together. This was perfect for slicing, good guards, easy to use, dishwasher proof but not toaster/ husband proof! Need anoher one, and having looked at the others on the market, I don't see why I would need anything else but this one!

Great little mandolin. I'm not sure why people are so surprised they can cut themselves when they use this - it's literally a tool for slicing vegetables quickly and easily, it should be obvious that if it cuts a vegetable it will cut your hand. That being said, it's a really good slicer for its price. The thickness options are good and easy to change between, the thinnest is thinner than I expected given theres only 3 options, and its ridiculously easy to clean. I have one of the bigger ones with a box underneath that has all the different chopping attachments that I mostly just use as a mandolin and I wanted one to keep in my locker at work to be able to take healthier meals in as I work shifts, and if it wasnt for the fact that I want to still use the other chopping attachments I would bin that one and get another of these, as this is far superior.

FANTASTIC! I rarely leave reviews but I had to with this. Brilliant device. Love that it's lockable. Great OXO quality. Blade is sharp but if you use it correctly it's safe. No cut fingers so far. Would 100% recommend!

I've always had mandolin slicers that come with a box where you change different attachments for different thicknesses or styles of slicing. This is the first time I've had this type where it has an adjustment lever to change the thickness. It's really sharp and I actually really like the finger guard because it's difficult to put it on the wrong way and end up with bits of plastic everywhere, as my husband has done in the past. However, I find changing the thickness to be a little bit fiddly. It doesn't just click nicely and smoothly and I end up messing around with it more than I feel like I should have to to lock the position or to change the thickness. I also prefer mandolin slicers that include at julienne attachment. I bought a peeler and this separately to try but it's just not as easy as having a slicer with multiple attachments. If I had retained the packaging, I probably would return this and opt for a different slicer that includes a julienne attachment as well. If your intention is only to use this as a standard slicer, I think it's pretty good if a little bit fiddly to use. If you want multiple styles of slicing I probably wouldn't bother with this and would just go for a slightly more expensive gadget that does everything with different attachments.

This mandolin has made cutting vegetables for my dehydrator such a breeze Pros: -the blade is very sharp and cut through the veggies fast and efficiently - the handle on the part that helps hold your veggies in place is very comfortable on your hands. It has little spikes on it so that your veggie can stay in place as you slice through it - I appreciate the visual illustration to determine the size of a cut you would like for your veggies, as opposed to a numerical value. It is easier to see exactly how thick I would like something instead of guessing what it would look like. - the thickest setting (as shown in the last photo) is just big enough. -the handle locks into place on the mandolin so you do not lose it while it is in storage Happy with this mandolin!

Terrible. The package was damaged when delivered. Someone has opened the original package and put a defective item back

Good

I've had this mandoline from Oxo for 8 months now. Every time I use it I'm in admiration of its design and execution. I've had maybe four or five different mandolines over the years, big name brands too. This is by far the best. My main point in the review is that it is still working as well 8 months after purchase as when I first used it. Slices well, simple to select a thickness, easy to clean, compact for storage, as safe as a device like this could possibly be. I found nothing to dislike.
