Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International HGT-11 Folding Mandoline Slicer
Customer Review: Love it, great price, great buy
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this mandolin slicer. It's easy to use and super easy to clean. I love that it comes in its own container and that the actual slicer folds up to save room. Please heed everyone's warning when they say this slicer is ridiculously sharp. It was a little scary to use at first, and the special saftey holder thingy is awkward to use. I usually just wait until I have only a couple slices left on a veggie, then just carefully slice slowly until you can slice no more. But seriously folks...BE CAREFUL...super super sharp.Customer Review: Surprise !

Potatoes gratin in minutes. Whipped through a pile of spuds in no time and without heavy pushing. The blades/spacers pop in and out. You have a good variety of thickness options but bot infinite dialed adjustments. I hope the sharpness lasts. The storage box it comes in is handy and makes stage of the pieces convenient and safe. I sliced onions for onion soup (and you KNOW how big a pile that takes). This slicer makes this daunting poject much, much less frightening. So fast, you almost have no time to cry.Customer Review: Not excellent, but pretty great

The mandoline has worked fine. It has a very neat, clean and slick look. The fact that it has a stand is great. My wife has used it several times already, mainly for potatoes. She hasn't tried all the slice plates yet, but the ones she has used, have worked pretty much great. There are some times when you're sliding back up the mandoline that food kinda gets stuck a bit, but it's not that much. Also, the thin slices aren't as thin as we expected, but it's nothing too big of a problem. We are pleased though.Customer Review: Pretty Awesome

Slices potatoes easily for really good homemade potato chips and veggies easily for salads. Haven't gotten the julienne thing to work really well, but haven't tried all kinds of veggies either. The guards are really good. Like other reviews have said, BE CAREFUL, I have a bad slice on my finger from not being careful when I washed it. That's not a product defect, that's not being careful. The blade has to be sharp to work!! Overall good purchase and the price is very reasonable.Customer Review: Works great

I mainly bought this mandoline for slicing fruits and vegetables for dehydrating because the slicing food processor discs are both expensive and not uniform. The blades are very sharp and I like that they are easily interchangeable and slice everything uniformly. So far I've used them on apples, carrots and potatoes with great results. Cleans up easy in the dishwasher and comes with a decent storage container so you don't randomly grab a blade when trying to fish around in a drawer.
