Benriner Mandoline Slicer Japanese Stainless Review

I have bought two more. One for my work kitchen and one for the house. I bought one when I was in culinary school and it has lasted for many years with semi-trained whipping help. My first one ended up breaking halfway through when my minions lost all the adjustment screws and somehow managed to damage the blade. I suggest removing the hardware holding the julienne and other blades when not in use to avoid losing them. Even if there is a safety guide on it, ALWAYS wear cut-out gloves. Mandolin…

Product measures 4.5" in product name. Product name says 3.75". We received the item and the cut area was actually about 2.75 inches.

I've decided to upgrade this replacement and so far I'm really impressed. The flat surface is quite wide, the whole block is very solid. I love the fact that you can adjust things so that the surface is completely flat, shielding the blade and protecting you from accidental blade contact when the device is in storage. The plastic holder…

My rating has nothing to do with the nature of the product. I have never used it. I ordered a jumbo slicer, model BN-120. I was expecting it to have extra blades for cutting vegetables with matchsticks. But Jumbo only comes with a regular cutting blade. I was confused by other models and photos showing multiple blades. It was only after receiving the item that I went back to the description and found that the extra blades are not included with the jumbo model. Again, the jumbo model only slices
