4 in 1 Slicer/Grater

Zyliss is a quality brand and I would put then in the same league as Microplane. This is half way between a regular, simple slicer and a more complex mandolin. This enables adjustment of slice thickness and has a guard for the hand and a gripper for the food. Razor sharp blades so be careful. Dishwasher safe. Overall this product can be recommended as good value for money and a balance of price and quality .

This is a great slicer but to save my skin and leaving me with a full compliment of digits. Made from relatively sturdy plastic, I've found this mandolin a pleasure to use with a consistent cut good for veg including pesky crybaby onions. You'll still cry, but you can keep moving back and forth knowing you're safe.

Zyliss is such a quality kitchen utensil make but i think this device is a bit like reinventing the wheel. Yes, my fingers do seem safer in some respects but it's just not as quick as picking up the old knuckle grater to grate carrots/cheese/whatever. It's well built and nice to use but a bit pricey for what it is and what it does.

I was surprised at how compactly this stored away. The extended length includes one attachment, but a clever sliding mechanism reduces the length by a third for storage. Also, all four attachments stack together. It works very well, you get two slicers and two graters. It makes light work of preparing vegetables for soup, and will take a medium sized onion cut in half or a large one in quarters. There is a smaller feed for slicing carrots and of course it will grate pares an or softer cheeses. Everything is dishwasher safe. Recommended

I like the idea of having utensils with multiple functions. In theory, they can save space. Unfortunately this slicer was just annoying to use. The first time we tried to use it, we were grating potatoes for making hash browns. Unfortunately the grater just doesn't seem to work well with an ingredient as hard as a potato. We gave up in frustration and switched back to using a standard grater. I imagine this product may be OK to use with softer products like cheese. But even then, I expect it's more awkward to use than a standard grater.

We have had a slicer like this before and it lost it's sharpness so we were pleased to replace it with this. The item came well packaged and has been used to slice a variety of vegetables. The red 'holder' prevents you cutting yourself and slices really easily. It was also easy to wash afterwards (you do have to watch your fingers!) Only grumble is its not that easy to store and keep everything together. Our last one 'clipped' together and was much easier in that regard. Nevertheless, this is a good slicer at a very reasonable price.

Small and versatile unit. This is a Mandolin slicer, which comes with various snap in blade units for different jobs. There are blades for slicing, Juliet strings and even string cheese. The blades are very sharp, it would need to be stored away from children and one needs to be really careful in use as it's quite easy to dice a finger or knuckle tip off. The hand knob has a mini feeder cap and a bigger feed, most things would need pre-cutting in order to get them into the machine. The unit features a sliding part, which opens to snap in a blade cartridge. These also snap together, so watch your fingers while separating them! These blades are razor sharp.

As a slicing tool, this works well, the tool to hold the fruit / vegetable in place I've not quite got to grips with yet, as it only seems to be useful for round items. When grating, it's a tool I'll need to get used to; certainly it's easier than a standard handheld grater, but it's also slightly larger, and with only a small section for actual grating, to make it something to work on to get the right technique. The actual grated pieces of cheese do seem to come out far prettier than they do with a normal grater, so that's nice. Overall, I do like this device. it does what it needs to, and it does it well - I had hoped it would be simple to use, but with a bit more practice I think it'll be getting use daily.

ho acquistato questa perchè la vecchia si è rotta dopo 15 anni... però questa non è paragonabile alla vecchia versione, non va male ma la mia esperienza mi ci ha fatto credere, anche perchè questa è un'azienda tutt'altro che economica

Toller Gemüsehobel!

Très bon article, je le recommande

Ho acquistato l'articolo in sostituzione di un vecchio ed ottimo modello e per la fiducia nel marchio Zyliss, possedendo altri ottimi prodotti. Realizzato con buona ingegnerizzazione e buon materiale, ma con alcuni problemi di precisione nell'incastro dei vari portalame che non permettono una sostituzione sempre agevole. Purtroppo la funzionalità è pessima. Difficile usarlo, ma, cosa veramente negativa, è la pericolosità. Facilissimo tagliarsi anche in modo grave, data l'ottima affilatura delle varie lame, per due ragioni: si tende a non usare la mascherina di protezione in quanto assolutamente non funzionale, favorendo in tal modo il taglio soprattutto del pollice e ci si taglia con estrema facilità nel maneggiare i vari portalame in occasione della loro sostituzione. Impossibile usarlo, scomodo, poco funzionale, ma soprattutto molto pericoloso. Soldi buttati.

Zyliss is in my opinion, the Rolls Royce of graters. The durability and sharpness of the blade is without equal.
