Swissmar Borner V-Slicer Pro Mandoline V-4000, 7-Piece Set

It all started in 1956 when Alfred Börner, a toolmaker by profession, started the business manufacturing an onion cutter. This cutter was made of wood with four razor-sharp blades bent in such a way to make cutting onions into cubes easy work. This one invention sparked many more, and product demand increased worldwide. Börner has become a well established company over the last 50 years, producing state of the art kitchen tools in Germany. They manufacture the finest quality vegetable slicers and mandolins on the market today and are leaders in design and technology. From the V-Slicer® Plus to the Combi-Chef™ and Veg' Art Prep Tool, Börner products help add creativity to any gourmet meal. For specific food preparation styles, the Design Line Series was created in the late 1990’s. Beginning with the Thin Julienne Slicer to the latest V-Wave Waffle Slicer, the addition of these various individual slicers makes creating a culinary masterpiece an easy and enjoyable task. You too can prepare foods like a professional, with safe and simple to use Börner products. The V-Slicer Pro Mandoline is made of durable ABS plastic with German surgical grade stainless steel blades. Three inserts cube, julienne, slice and shred. One of the inserts is a thick/thin insert for 3 precision thicknesses plus a “zero” safety position to completely cover the V-blade when not in use. The ambidextrous Food Safety Holder has a serrated edge to safely push food off slicer, requires very little pressure that can produce a variety of different cuts. Steel pins grip most sizes and shapes of produce to create even slices every time. An insert holder provides protective storage for extra inserts; acts as a drying. Easy to clean; rinse under hot or cold running water immediately after use.

Indispensible
By Denise Schlaman
I received this as a Christmas gift --one of the best I've ever enjoyed! It is easier, faster and less hassle than my food processor. The first day I got it I used it to slice potatoes for scalloped potatoes and oh my gosh how easy. I find I grab it and go to much more than my electric gadgets (and I admit, I love gadgets...) It's a necessity for what I need lots of--onions (is there a good recipe that does not include onions???) peppers, tomatoes, apples, fennel, etc....it's a wonder on hard fruits and veggies. The clean up is quick, the hand-guard/pusher is easy and actually works, (I've even used this thing with celery!) and the attachments fit and store very well in the rack that's included. (And very safely)

My only complaint is that the plastic seems to stain with carrot or tomato. In the big scheme of things....no biggie.

I love this thing!

A must have in the kitchen
By Faith
I have been using the regular V-Slicer mandolin for several years! It's a definite must-have in the kitchen but be careful...it is super sharp and will slice your finger through the bone if you use it without the guard and don't pay 100% attention to what you are doing!!! No kidding! By far the cheapest and most practical alternative to a professional stainless-steel mandoline. I am getting this professional set as a back-up. This is the best value on the market and I have tried using a few others only to come back to this one. In fact, I travel with it sometimes and slice apples etc in my hotel/billetting room. The V-Slicer very quickly, attractively and uniformly slices and juliennes vegetables and fruits. I shred cabbages, plantains, beets, celery, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and many more.

Overall good, hand guard design is a little problematic
By Just Jen
It's overall very good. The unit is stable and doesn't skid while slicing. It comes with a variety of blades that satisfy all of my cutting needs. My only complaint is that it is very difficult to julienne small items such as carrots due to the hand guard, which doesn't hold produce of this size very well at all.
