LOUIS TELLIER - Professional Chef's Mandoline - Stainless Steel - Slices Fruits and Vegetables, Makes French Fries and Julienne - Adjustable Thickness - Made in France

Well constructed and easy to clean. If you are thinking of getting a Mandolin to cut every vegetable, you may be disappointed. Squash can separate and tomatoes can be too soft. Really works great for cucumbers and even cheese. Also this tool is not for the timid. Marie Antoinette fingers over the guillotine are a constant threat.If you know you want to invest in a great Mandolin, get this one.

A great addition to any Chef's tools!A mandolin is a fabulous assistant....just 'guard' those fingers when using this time honored kitchen assistant.Not for the novice cook!This mandolin delivers creative cuts!

I had hoped that this would be it, the One, the mandolin I keep. It's going back, though, because the permanent blades responsible for the success of the cutting operation aren't sharp enough to consistently cut. Super sharp replaceable blades in different sizes are great, but half the equation is in the permanent blades. These are too dull to complete a good cut...so dull that the operation becomes quite dangerous, even with the provided pusher. Overall the unit is high-quality and sturdy. If a little extra attention had been put into the blades the high price tag would have been acceptable, but because of the dullness of important blades, this mandolin doesn't perform any better than the 35 dollar version rendered in plastic. Too bad!
