• Excellent Product
  For the price you expect a good product, and this is very good. You don't need one this expensive though. I love mine, and the locking mechanism is a great feature, but it doesn't lock the other blades, so it's not entirely "safe." Needless to say, I keep it far out of reach from my children.

• Excellent product, Good Value
  I am very impressed with this slicer. I bought it as a substitute for a much more expensive mandoline I own that is currently packed away. It performed very well for the task I needed it for (5 lbs of potatoes for scalloped potatoes). The storage box that it comes with is a bit odd, but it does protect the blades and is reasonably compact. We'll see if the blades stay sharp, but for the price I won't even care if they don't last forever.
