Premium Winco Winware Stainless Steel Mandoline Slicer Set with Hand Guard - Professional Vegetable & Fruit Slicer for Kitchen, Salad Prep & Food Presentation

After many hours of research it was the correct decision to buy a professional quality Mandoline Slicer vs the less expensive plastic versions. It complements other SS accessories in the kitchen if you leave it out on the counter. It does come with a small white plastic box to hold the 5 blades (looks cheap in comparison to the slicer). I've seen a unit with a carrying case, wish this one had it for storage.Instruction manual is minimal but sufficient. Two of the blades are inserted from the right, 3 are inserted from the left which makes it a no brainer to insert correctly.I've only tried the sliding blade to cut eggplant and honeydew melon. Exceptionally even slices. It easy to clean but be careful, the blades are very sharp. Two knobs on the side make it a breeze the adjust slice thickness.If you plan on using the slicer at least once a week, it is worth the investment.I'll add more when I have more experience...
