Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Microplane 47001 Adjustable Slider Food Slicer
Customer Review: Good product for small quantities
Summary: 3 Stars
I do a lot of cooking and food prep at home and I absolutely love Microplane products. The Microplane graters (Gourmet series are best,and best buys) get a lot of use and hold up well, and performance can't be beat.
I say this slicer and it piqued my interest so I looked for it in a kitchen supply store.
It is well designed and with the slider accessory (not expensive at all) it would do well for most home cooks, or for a busy cook who needs to slice a small amount: one carrot, half a cucumber or zucchini, etc. And it is adjustable, which is a plus.
But I judged that it would not do well for a large quantity because of it's small size and the two edges for cutting (not as easy as a single, slanted blade), so I didn't get it. But it is worth recommending it for the casual user because it is solid, useful, and would really help when thin, uniform slices are needed.
But I'll stick to my solid mandoline with attachments. It can handle a potato, fennel bulb, eggplant, parsnips, stirfry meat, etc. This little gadget would not be able to do that. And an adjustible mandoline can make julienne cuts, waffle slices, etc.
So my recommendation: buy this Microplane adjustible slicer if you do small jobs. For a big jog you'll need a good, solid steel adjustible mandoline slicer. The latter will cost about $100, but they last forever and are also very versatile.
