Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Swissmar Borner V-Slicer Plus Mandoline
Customer Review: Great slicer!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this slicer to prepare apples for drying and upon reading the reviews, I decided on this one because of the V shaped blade. It works really well! I noticed if I don't clear some of the apples out from under it, they can get in the way of a good clean slice. I am very happy with it and I've used it on about a peck of apples for dehydrating and the slice thickness is perfect! I use the thicker side for apples. It does other slicing to which I haven't tried yet. The key with this slicer is the V blade which seems much better than straight blade. It is still sharp after a peck of apple slicing; that's a lot of apples so far!
Description of Swissmar Borner V-Slicer Plus Mandoline
Cut thick slices of apple for pies, or veggies for stir fries. Slice potatoes thinly for homemade chips, or cabbage for cole slaw. Shred carrots for salad, or julienne, or cube, or dice. With a helpful set of instructions and three cutters, this machine yields professional looking, uniform results, at great speed and without much work on your part.An inexpensive alternative to a professional stainless-steel mandoline, this device makes it possible to quickly, uniformly, and safely slice and julienne vegetables and fruits. It also shreds cabbage and neatly dices potatoes, tomatoes, and onions. For safety, a holder firmly grips food with stainless-steel prongs so fingers are protected from the German surgical-steel blades, and the three inserts accompanying the device lock in position. The inserts act as a guide for slicing against the V-frame's knife that reverses to create slices either 1/4-inch or 1/16-inch thick and two julienne inserts for creating 1/8-inch or 3/8-inch strips. For storage, the V-frame, all three inserts, and the safety holder fit into a caddy that can stand upright on the counter, lie flat in a drawer, or hang on the wall. Made of rugged plastic, the device measures 15 inches long and 6 inches wide when assembled for storage. --Fred Brack
