Mueller Austria V-Pro Multi Blade Adjustable Mandoline Slicer

The blades are very sharp and for professional use

This has cut my chopping time down to a third for the time it was taking me previously. I make lots of pickles and it was taking me so long to chop everything but this is fantastic! I use this for tomatoes, sliced first then put in, then onions in half then pushed through, works a treat in no time. I also use it to chop cauliflower for pickles and it has been just awesome, so glad I brought this!

Have been looking for years for a good Mandoline. So happy I found this on Amazon

I have purchased many mandoline slicers in the past, and I know what I like. I have spent significantly more on nicer ones with replaceable blades, more exact slices, etc. But I really needed a good mandoline slicer that does a bit more than slice in one size. I have heard good things about the Mueller V-Pro 5 (as well as other products they make) from other chefs, so I decided to buy this one. I needed the following out of my slicer. - Adjustable slice thickness (this can slice paper thin to a respectable thickness to a bit over 1/3") - Julienne/Alumette/French cut as well as straight slicing Added bonus - Wavy cut (ridges) - Grates - Juliennes in two sizes (there are blades underneath the slicing deck that you can rotate and lock into place) - Case for the blades This one is simply the best in its class, nothing in this price range will come close. It is very sharp, both the 5 insert blades, as well as the deck blades for Julienning tucked into the bottom of the deck. Using the product, I love how it slices the vegetables very thin, especially onions for bagels, lox and cream cheese, or tomatoes for a thin slices in a burger, but the best of all, it can slice it almost paper thin. Great for like slicing cucumbers for sunomono. The Julienne slices can be perfect for stuffing vegetables in a spring roll, or for making various slaws. The grater is fantastic as well. One thing I will also like to note is the blades are very sharp. I would use this tool with caution if you have not used a madoline slicer in the past, and make sure to use the food holder and guard. I have used so many in the past, I am used to it, and I know when to stop, so I haven't used the food holder and guard. This is one of the best kitchen products that I have purchased recently, and I highly recommend this to everyone I know that loves to cook. Makes cooking a lot easier and faster (try julienning 5 kinds of vegetables for a dish), and cleaning this tool is very easy and fast too. Sure, I can julienne and make pretty flower shaped or rose petals out of carrots or make a fish net out of daikon radish just using a knife, but you know, when you want to cook a meal in 30 minutes, nothing beats a great tool. If you are looking to shortcut your cooking time, this tool is must buy for most use cases.

This product blades are extremely sharp. I cut myself so bad that I had to get a stitch done after. Never use without guard . Otherwise a great product...
