Buen precio y la calidad es suprema

Only wish there were easier ways to clean this and they give some kind of a brush.Please use a cut proof glove while using and washing. Else too many bad cuts and bleeds

As someone who loves to cook and experiment with new recipes at home, this Japanese Mandolin has quickly become one of my favourite kitchen tools.I particularly enjoy using it to slice cabbage for coleslaw, as it produces consistently thin slices that make for a an amazing texture. The compact size of the slicer also makes it easy to store in my already-crowded kitchen drawers. What really stands out to me about the Benriner BN-1 is how sharp and precise the blades are. Even after many years of use, the slicer still slices through vegetables with ease, making food prep a breeze. And when it comes to cleaning, it's as simple as running it under water and wiping it down.Aside from vegetable prep, I've also used this slicer to make thinly sliced potatoes for homemade chips, which turned out perfectly every time.Overall, the this Mandolin Slicer is a versatile and reliable tool that has made my time in the kitchen more efficient and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality mandolin slicer that is easy to use and clean.Oh, and I almost forgot to mention about fermenting cabbage! As someone who enjoys making my own sauerkraut at home, this slicer has been a game-changer.The even and consistent slices that it can produces make it much easier to pack the cabbage tightly into a jar, which is essential for creating the right conditions for fermentation. And because the blades are so sharp, it takes far less effort to slice through the cabbage than it would with a knife, which is a real time-saver. Must-have tool for anyone looking to make their own sauerkraut, kimchi, or other fermented vegetables at home. Overall, I can't recommend this Mandolin Slicer enough. It's a compact, versatile, and high-quality tool that has made my time in the kitchen more enjoyable and efficient. From coleslaw to fermenting cabbage, this slicer does it all, and it's held up remarkably well over the years.

Es justo lo que anuncian, muy buen producto

Un gran artículo para tener en casa, ahorra mucho tiempo en la preparación de ciertos platillos, recomiendo ampliamente comprar cuchillos resistentes a cortes para evitar accidentes

Recomiendo usar la mandolina, ya sea que con las cuchillas especiales o sin ellas, junto con un guante para cuchillos, el protector de plástico con el que viene no es nada ergonomico y se rasbalan un poco las verduras suaves. Un guante métalico de los que usan los carniceros es mejor, cortas más rápido las verduras y tienes los 10 dedos intactos. 10/10

Es la segunda que compro y no cambio la marca por las mandolinas de acero. Es super buena y recomendada

Finalmente una mandolina fatta come si deve, costa tanto ma vale ogni euro che costa, con questa mandolina non serve più preoccuparsi quando bisognerà tagliare ortaggi anche di grandi dimensioni a fette sottilissime (meno di un foglio di carta, quasi trasparenti), cipolla, patate da fare fritte (fenomenali), cavoli... Tutto perfetto... Il taglio è regola ile in modo micrometrico in continuo (quindi senza scatti), da o a 9mm massimo (ma rende meglio su spessori sotto al mezzo cmq in quanto la lama si allontana dal piano aumentando lo spessore).Lama smontabile e affidabile di altissima qualità, un rasoio... Occhio alle dita.

Es justo lo que esperaba recibir. Producto de excelente calidad. Gracias.

Una mandolina de buena calidad. Profesional. Muy filoso y se puede cambiar los cuchillos, entonces te dura muchos muchos muchos años este producto. Muy recomendado el inversión. Si trabajas con comida, eso sería muy útil para obtener un producto lindo. Estoy satisfecha!

Aunque al hacer el pedido me informaban de que tardaría al menos un mes, apenas tardó una semana en llegar.Es muy fácil de limpiar, y de usar ya sea usando el mango y apoyándola sobre la encimera (tiene un borde que es anti-adherente) como sobre un bol. Por ahora las cuchillas están en perfecto estado, y se puede graduar el grosor del corte hasta 1mm.Totalmente recomendable su compra

La mandolina tiene un cuerpo bastante robusto, todas las piezas moviles son metálicas, el tamaño es el adecuado para la mayoría de vegetales. La cuchilla rebanadora puede sorprender por ser tan filosa y mantenerse igual desde el primer día. Las cuchillas de juliana son una parte que no se puede usar de forma sencilla, con algunos vegetales duros como papas o chayotes, simplemente se quedan atorados y no logran pasar por completo.

First, let me say that I have used numerous mandolins and while most work well for the average everyday slicing...all have failed me when I am trying to do very thin slicing. All the other units have preset thickness choices. For my needs, none have every been able to slice thin enough. I saw a Benriner in our local kitchen fixture store and laughed, once again, at the claims made on the package. OH WELL...what is one more slicer in the cupboard. While looking on Amazon, I noted there was also the Wide-Body version...a bit more money but probably more useful...so I ordered it.This is a simple machine with infinite thickness adjustments from it max thickness all the way down to zero; note I said infinite! No presets...just turn two adjusting knobs on the bottom to the desired thickness. In my case...thinness is what I'm looking for. I do a dish with sweet potatoes and they must be sliced very thin; about the equivalent of a couple of sheets of printing paper...thin! Since the two knobs work independent of each other, each controlling each side of tray, it takes a little looking to get both of them adjusted evenly; once you know they are even, just turn both knobs the same amount and all is well.As my confidence increased...I kept cutting thinner and thinner; to the point of being able to see through the sweet potato. OK... I'm sold! I played with the julienne attachments and found them to work well. Other reviews have mentioned the poor design of the blade guard/food holder; I have to agree that it is below par compared to the unit itself. But, that is not a deal breaker since I seldom use a guard anyway. Please note...the blade is SHARP and I like the fact that I can remove the blade and touch it up on my steel to maintain that razor sharp edge.There is no built in stand or anything to help old the unit up. I found it worked best over a silicone rimmed bowl (the silicone kept it from sliding around while in use). There is no place, internally to store the accessory blades. This unit is not burdened with a lot of junk features and the basic design and easy cleaning is just what I was looking for...plus that super thin slicing capability!This past weekend I used it to shred some cabbage for cole-slaw. It worked well and again i was pleased. It took me about 2 minutes to shred the entire head. Very pleased!A maintenance note. When washing...habit would dictate to scrub up and down the cutting ramp with your brush or sponge. Please don't do this! Only stroke it backward over the cutting edge. This will keep you from causing any unnecessary damage to the edge as well as your cleaning tool.I like it, I'm sold on it and am happy to say it is the best lightweight mandolin I have ever used! Highly recommended!====================================================UPDATE 11/02/15Our Benriner has been used a lot. I knew the day would come when the cutting edge would begin to lose it sharpness. Rubbing my finger across the edge, it was obvious the edge had curled a bit (this is normal and what happens to knives). I use a steel to clean up the edges on all my knives (If you don't know what a steel is, please read below). I removed the cutting blade and using my honing steel removed the burr or curl from the edge. In less than a minute, my cutting edge was, once again, super sharp. We have started dehydrating fruits and slicing through the core and seeds of apples and pears does cause damage to the cutting edge. I do wish that it would slice a bit thicker than it does, BUT...I originally purchased this because of its ability to be able to slice very thin...which it does amazingly well. I remain very happy with my purchase.What is a steel?A honing steel, sometimes referred to as sharpening steel, sharpening stick, sharpening rod, butcher's steel, and chef's steel is a rod of steel, ceramic or diamond coated steel used to realign blade edges. They are flat, oval, or round in cross-section and up to one foot long.
