Review on πŸ”ͺ Enhanced Precision with OXO Good Grips V-Blade Mandoline Slicer: Slice and Dice with Ease! by Trish Edens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

More than I really need

Like all OXO products, it's easy to see why this mandolin gets such high ratings and reviews. However, my only criticism is that if I had used this unit prior to purchasing it, I probably would have chosen a different, simpler mandolin. Versatility comes at a price, and in this case, the price is weight and complexity. Of course, OXO has done a great job to make this device as user-friendly as possible. But after using a very basic Boerner V-Slicer for over 20 years, OXO feels like overkill. To solve this problem I bought a very light and well designed mandolin from Kyocera for less than $15. When I need to cut large groceries or need strips of straw, the OXO is great. But for smaller and simpler tasks I now use Kyocera.
