Review: Kyocera mandoline vs. Sack of Potatoes - I bought this to replace a KitchenAid mandoline that was lost when I moved. My old slicer was much "fancier" and I wasn't sure what to expect from such a simple device. So I put it to the test on 50 lbs of potatoes. Yes that's right, Five Zero, and yes I know I'm crazy. My potatoes always sprout and I got tired of throwing out food, so I started dehydrating them so that I can use them as slow as I want and not worry about them going bad. I own a Kyocera peeler and love it, so I peeled the potatoes with that before slicing. I didn't really worry about getting all the skin off so the slicer did have to deal with some potato skin. I was very happy with the performance of the slicer, the potato went over the blade effortlessly and didn't hang up on it at all like I remember my steel-bladed slicer doing. The plastic blade guard/guide is ok, I never really like them but it is the only way to keep your fingers away from the blade when the item being sliced gets smaller. I wished the teeth on it were either a little sharper or longer, but it worked. The blade is very, very sharp. Use with caution, use the guard, and don't fret about losing that last little piece off the end, it's not worth chopping your fingers up just to get one more slice of potato! My only (minor) dissatisfaction with this slicer is that I wish it had more range in the adjustment of the slice thickness. The thickest slice came out close to 1/12 of an inch, considerably thinner than the 1/8" setting on my previous mandoline. So my potato slices were thinner than I was used to but I compensated for that by reducing the blanching time a bit and all was well. This slicer is a terrific deal on an excellent quality product, I know it will be hanging on my kitchen wall near to hand for many years.
Review: Slices THIN!! - This is an America's Test Kitchen (ATK) recommended product. I didn't realize I was getting a ceramic blade, but it seems very sharp. A little research indicated that ceramic stays sharper than steel, if you take care of it. I used this to create thin potato slices for making kettle chips. Thickness setting 1 is very thin, like Lays potato chips (in the yellow bag) thickness. I ended up using setting 2, which is about 1/16 in thick to make the kettle chips. It comes with a food holder, but it didn't seem very useful. I decided to order a pair of level 5 cut-proof, slice-proof gloves to protect my fingers. There is a square adjustment bar on back of the slicer that provides four slice thicknesses. I wish it had a dial/knob on the side to rotate the bar easier. 0.55 mm (0.022 in) 1.3 mm (0.051 in, ~1/16") 2.0 mm (0.079 in) 3.0 mm (0.118 in, ~1/8") The chips sliced very well and consistent. You do have to press down a bit because the adjuster bar on the back acts as a back-stop for the thickness more than it does actually setting the thickness. I found that I needed to rotate the potato 90 degrees each slice to keep it from getting thinner on the leading edge.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How wide is the cutting area ? What is the widest size item I can put on without cutting it narrower ?**
A: cutting area is 3 inches.  It's so easy to use and clean.  I rarely have to cut onions before I use it on them.

**Q: Does this come with a device to protect the hand that's holding the vegetable?**
A: yes

**Q: how does this model compare with the so-called "advanced" versions ?**
A: This one slices wafer thin even at widest setting which is exactly what I needed. If you need a slicer with an array of settings you’ll need a different one

**Q: Does it work okay for lefties?**
A: My son is a lefty and he has no problem with it. It is very, very sharp! Use the furnished slide guard.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Repeat Purchase after 3 years- Very Handy Kitchen Utensil
*by D***P on May 9, 2025*

This is my second purchase. The first one lasted a little more than three years before it seemed a bit dull. I think I used it 2 the 3 times a week. I liked and used the various thickness settings of the adjustable design. I don't think I would like the fixed blade design. I'm not a kitchen gadget guy but the light-weight, easy-clean and overall simplicity makes this a goto kitchen tool. The plastic parts were all intact and functioning after 3 years. Just wish the ceramic blade was sharper or could be sharpened. Still pleased with the design, performance and value of this product. Will probably buy again in another 3 years. :-) BTW I think I maintained good blade life by storing it hanging with other kitchen stuff. To avoid chipping the ceramic blade you probably shouldn't store it tossed in a crowed drawer with other utensils.
