Zakarian by Dash Safe Slice Mandoline for Vegetables, Meal Prep & More with 30+ Presets & Thickness Adjuster - Zakarian Blue

I’ve owned one mandolin slicer in my life. When I cut the tips of 4 fingers and had to endure the ordeal of their slow healing, I swore I’d never own another. Until I saw a cooking video using a slicer similar to this one. It is sharp, producing quick and easy slices from thin to thick easily, and the adjustable blade (from 1 to 8) is simple. I will tell you there is a bit of a learning curve with the julienne blades, but I’ll learn how they work eventually. Right now I’ve made scalloped potatoes and sliced cucumbers for pickling and it couldn’t be easier. It has 4 parts, the chute, the pusher, the mandolin blade, and the container to catch whoever you’re slicing. The parts disassemble for easy storage, taking up little space in my cabinet. I like how it can be thrown into the dishwasher or rinsed in the sink and allowed to dry. But above all that, it keeps the fingers clear of the slicing blades. I highly recommend this product to anyone.

Like the idea of the safe slice but it’s pretty cumbersome to use. Almost too much flexibility in setting. I wanted cut and go, not a reference manual. But I tried it on potatoes and it worked pretty well for French fries. Sharp enough, but small pieces. When I tried carrots, instead of the coin shaped carrot cuts I thought I would get, they were vertical because of the way it feeds. Not a tragedy, but unexpected. To summarize, it does what it is supposed to do and safely. I just wish it was intuitive.

Works wonderful

I bought one for myself, then bought 2 as gifts. I love to cook all my family meals and this definitely made it easier for me to incorporate fresh veggies in every dish.

I have an old school mandolineand have used it for years. However, I've always feared loosing a fingertip or two. No more fear!!! Additionally my old mandoline also had several inserts for julienning. No more - These blades are built-in and easy to put into use.I have used it for making a mirepoix in just minutes. Quckly slicing potatoes and onions for a potatoes au gratin! It's so fast and fun. Seems to also be vrey sturdy. My only wish is that it had bigger opening for the deliver chute and receptical for the output.If a bigger version comes out, I'm sure I'll be lining up to buy it.

Love this and how it works. Only downfall is it cuts at an angle so you have to pay attention to how you load it.

Easy to use, you can safely slice veggies.

I threw away the other type of slicing machine. You know the ones that have the basket and you change the blades out. This Works so much more superior! Easy to set up various settings to cut your vegetables or cheese works very efficiently. Great kitchen tool
