Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Benriner Japanese Mandoline Slicer
Customer Review: 15 years of use: great gizmo for the right purposes
Summary: 5 Stars
Probably more than 15 years, and I'm just now about to order a new one since they don't offer a replacable main blade. Like any kitchen tool, you have to know what to use it for and what NOT to use it for. I use it for paper-thin (or just very thin) slices of cucumber and onion - every night in our salad. You can place the blade right over the salad bowl and not even have to wash the other piece. Also great for paper-thin apples for pancakes or thin potato slices. (Don't use it for thicker slices of hard veggies like carrots - use a salad shooter or an old-fashioned knife!) I keep this mandolin in the drawer right next to the sink...takes very little space, and the plastic makes it lightweight and easier to use than a big heavy metal mandolin. As far as safety goes, one trip to the emergency room 8 years ago taught me to concentrate as I get near the end, use the finger guard (which I have no problem with) and not be cheap about getting every last bit. (Yes, I've cut myself with a knife too, but I'm not going to stop using knives in the kitchen!) This and my immersion blender are my two favorite kitchen gizmos, and I highly, highly, highly recommend it. Indispensable. Inexpensive. Easy to store. (Not sure if I'm trading up to the larger one. If an onion is too large to slice it flat, I slice it at an angle which creates smaller slices which I prefer for salad or cooking. I also like the compact size.)
