Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro 370 Bread Slicerand Guide with Crumb Catcher
Customer Review: Ok for the job
Summary: 3 Stars
Received this product without instruction but easy to assemble looking at the picture on the box. Others say they cut down into the wood when cutting.....well, you can prevent that if you screw the sides on as near the top of the wood as possible and you will not cut the wood. I paid 16.99 for it and it seems like it would be worth 6.99, but I guess you are paying for the acrylic sides, because the wood is CHEAP. I am going to keep it though as it seems it will give good even slices.Customer Review: Bread slicing guide

It's kind of misleading, the title: Bread Slicer and Guide. It doesn't slice anything, but it is a guide. The only thing is, it's too wide. When I bake a loaf of bread, it never comes out as wide as this thing is. The bread knife is even too short to go all the way across from the first slice guide to the other. So, my mate removed one of the guides. I now hold my loaf with my hand, and using only the guide closest to me, I cut the bread. It should be about 2 inches narrower.Customer Review: adequate...barely..

i got this despite the negative reviews because i really needed a bread slicer. after the first couple uses it moved to the cabinet below the sink. the thing felt cheap, i didn't find the plastic guides very useful, didn't stabilize the bread as i was cutting which was kind of the point of getting this... i was pretty disappointed. i just wish there was a better option out there made by a quality company. would agree with other reviewers that this is a waste of time and money.Customer Review: do they have a zero-star rating?

What junk! Flimsy construction. When I got it, the wooden slats were all warped, which made the floor of this product totally non-flat. It took me less time to cut the bread by hand, which totally negates the purpose of this thing. Also, it's too wide, so you'll need an extra long bread knife. Mine didn't fit. Honestly, you're better off getting some cheap plastic junk from the dollar store, because it would probably be better quality than this excuse for a bread slicer.Customer Review: NO SCREWS! ARRRRG

Got this for my hubby for his new "bread making" hobby. We haven't used it yer but very disappointed that we did not get any screws with the package. We opened it on a cupboard after everyone left. It was the only item he opened at that time and we searched everywhere twice and found no screws. I am now worried that it will be stable enough to use and that is assuming I can find proper screws for it. I may just opt to return it and get a different one.
