Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Borner Food Safety Holder
Customer Review: No need- just be careful
Summary: 2 Stars
I don't find the need for this - just be careful with the shredder. On the other hand, I may be missing something. Instructions for how and when to apply this safety gadget are in drawings on the side of the wrapping. An instruction page (no need for a book, just a few clues on how to use this thing) is in order but sorely lacking. Shop elsewhere for another meaningful gadget, or just live dangerously. The manufacturers of these products seem to believe we will do just fine with pictures and possibly a prayer. Disclaimer: I am not a chef and basically cut open bags of lettuce and shred some carrots, boil some pasta and pour on some Classico, and call it Italian night. I bought this particular product because I believed in the necessity of it when combining with the veggie shredder, based on other reviews. But honestly, this overrated piece of plastic is merely an expensive shelf decoration. I used it once and won't use it again unless someone more brilliant than me shows me a good reason to do so.
Description of Borner Food Safety Holder
Provides perfect slicing of vegetables and fruits while protecting your fingers. Great kitchen tool for salads, party trays, hard cheeses(best when cold) and hard sausages (best when cold).This handy food holder keeps fingers and knuckles away from sharp blades on slicers and graters. When gentle pressure with a thumb or finger is applied to the top button, prongs on the holder secure any size fruit or vegetable, or piece of hard cheese or meat, and allow the entire length of the food item to be sliced. The food holder works well with other Borner products, such as the V-slicer and onion cutter, and also with any cheese grater or mandolin. The holder measures 6 by 5 by 2 inches, and is dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri
