Customer Reviews of Bron Original Stainless Steel Mandolin Slicer
Customer Rating:  Summary: Bron Stainless Steel Mandolin Slicer Comment: Great product. Everything it says it is. Even though some say the instructions are hard to understand, I didn't feel that way. Very sharp blades, so you do need to be very careful and use the guard. But the reason I bought it was I wanted sharp blades. Customer Rating: Summary: Easy to Use and Easy Storage Comment: Realy happy with the perfomance of this mandoline so far. Had it for about 2 weeks now and it is way better than the last mandoline I owned. Of course it was a bit more expensive than the last one but well worth it to me. I saw one in local store at nearly double the price ($280.00) so $150.00 was a great deal. The safety gaurd is easy to use and solid stainless construction. The last one I owned had a cheap plastic gaurd and it was not guided on rails like this one. The guided safety gaurd prevents slipping when cutting hard root vegetables and damaging the blade (or myself). The blades for this one are all self contained on the madonline and rotate and lock into position. The straight blade is very sharp so be sure to raise the upper sliding surface above the blade to avoid cutting yourself when haddling/storing the item. Storage - Really happy that all of the blades and the gaurd can store together on the machine. It looks good left out in the open as well. It hangs a little funny off the rack when hung by the support leg since it swivels out, but I may drill a hole near the top to get it to hang straight up and down. Be sure to read and understand the instruction booklet provided with it. Customer Rating: Summary: Great and infinitely adjustable Comment: I have used many different slicers (V-type, diagonal) and this stainless steel Bron which I also own is my favorite by far. The Borner V slicer I own does not have legs and is thus unstable, it is okay for quick non-uniform shredding and slicing. This model has it's own legs so your two hands can focus on the cutting. If you simply pay attention to where the blades are (put the cell phone down), you shouldn't cut yourself. It has a sliding guard for the food to rest in which attaches to the mandoline (which in the picture of the item is shown attached upside-down) and I believe to be safer than the free floating guards of the others. One plus of the steel construction is absolutely true uniform slices which are produced, which has not been experienced with plastic slicers. If you have the money, it is a great investment that should last you your lifetime. Customer Rating:  Summary: cut myself everytime... Comment: Very, very sharp blade ... every time that I even consider taking this out of it's box, I cut my fingers trying to set it up ... it has sat in the cupboard (my husband repackaged it because I now refuse to touch it) for a long time now and therefore is totally useless to me...

Choosing Appliance -> Mixer Pretty much the same thoughts as the food processor. High quality mixers are great for making bread or other tough jobs. Every kitchen should have one. Be sure that any mixer has all three attachments: paddle, dough hook, and whip. Also, find a spot on the counter where it can be easily accessed at a moment's notice. Choosing Appliance -> Plastic wrap An absolute must with a million and a half uses. But do not buy just any plastic wrap. Go to a restaurant supply store and buy a large roll of restaurant plastic wrap. It sticks much better than the common grocery store plastic wrap and is much cheaper per foot.

Useful info -> Food Waste Disposers Food waste disposers remove waste quickly without the use of knives or blades. The food waste is ground down into fine particles and is then flushed away through the normal waste pipe system. This process can also aid recycling as the waste is transformed into a soil conditioner once at the treatment plant. |
