OXO Good Grips Chef's Mandoline 2.0, Grey, 10.66 x 41.91 x 18.16 cm

Excellent product. Three cutting sizes with a safety setting and the blade is razor sharp, don't use without the accompanying slicing guide or your fingers will pay the price!

Very happy with this item good quality. Safe to use, easy to clean and slices really nicely. Has a nice handle and really handy size not big and cumbersome and can store away without taking up loads of room.

After purchasing the oxo potato peeler, going from ceramic to metal again I was dubious about the quality of this item as it was mainly plastic. My first thought was I don't think its gonna work... I used the item on the first setting to judge the thinnest slice it could produce, at first I didn't think it was working, but low and behold it did, all settings were fantastic. So I ho about slicing on the thinnest setting for my dauphinouir potato bake. Brilliant, consistent slices with minimal effort. Unbeknownst to me I had sliced the tip of my finger in the process I carry on going. Its only until I start grating the cheese I realise its coming out red :-/ the mandolin was SO GOOD I sliced my finger and didn't realise I'd done it!! Very nice clean cut, no jagged edges. Yes I should be more impressed with the potatoes but I was surprised I didn't feel a thing!! Please use the guard, I did revert to using the guard and it actually made the slicing process quicker!! Is fine to go in the dishwasher, I wouldn't trust sponge cleaning it in case it takes on your sponge and fingers, it does have a lock mechanism to raise the blade so it cant cut but I still wouldn't trust it. I think its out to get the whole set of digits....10/10 - minus my stupidity, its not the mandolins fault. What a lovely little gadget, I'm just glad I had it on the thinnest setting. I would give this five stars but my finger won't let me, it still holds a grudge.

Excellent mandolin - very sharp and slices veg with ease. Be aware, as expected (and required) the blade is very sharp. Despite best intentions and thinking I’d got plenty of veg left before I had to use the holder - my thumb got in the way, didn’t quite take a slice clean off but very nearly and right on tip of thumb is very awkward to ‘bandage’. Lesson learnt 😬

Easy to use and easy to clean. Slices beautifully.

Upon arrival I was impressed with the quality of this item. It is relatively compact, well made and do exactly what we need. I proceeded to tell my partner and her teenage son that they have to be very careful as this is sharp, use the guard, teenager not to be unsupervised to begin with etc. etc.Fast forward a couple of weeks and I'm cooking tea, music playing, glass of wine poured, I'm in full flow. Time to start slicing all of the items for the overly elaborate pickled Asian salad which was going with out meal. Revelling at how well the slices were coming out and being proud of my work I instantly came down to earth with a crash. Searing pain through my finger, red on my hand...You see I wasn't using the guard, I know better and (thought) I was being careful. After the blood cleared this device had removed a chunk of my nail and, possibly a section of the nail bed.I summary for the stars:Well made and good design - 5 starsHow it feels when you get it wrong - 0 starsSharpness - 5 stars (it cut through nail with zero resistance).Seeing as the zero is due to my stupidity it has to be five stars, buy but be careful.

Wow. I decided in my infinite wisdom that I needed a mandoline (after all, who doesn't?!). I actually just bought this for making ratatouille, which was amazing, and nicked my finger of the edge a tiny big (my own fault) - ouch! But was great to use and clean in the dishwaasher.The next day I decided to make a vegetarian lasagna, and therefore wanted to make long strips of courgette. Looking back I should have cut the courgette in half lengthways before subjecting it to my beginner mandoline culinary skills. I didn't, got distracted, didn't use the guard and whilst talking to my son, encountered the blade up and very personal with my thumb.Like love, the sting was sharp and the bleeding profuse - I held it above my my head which ran down my arm and freaked out my 6yr old who decided I needed an ambulance. I didn't, but boy the really thumb bleeds a lot! It looked like I had a crimson viper coiling it's way around and up/down my arm. Nothing seemed to help (and I had no steristrips), so I held it aloft, applied pressure til it was the calmest it could be and smeared it with superglue (my thumb not the mandoline). Eventually it healed/ stopped looking like I'd cut a major artery, and when everything was calm enough I removed the superglue (released the blood blister that had built up, steri-stripped the sides together (thank you husband) and glued the edges. Everything's good!Steri-Strips Skin Closures x 8Loctite 0000602 Super Glue Tube - 3 gThat is until I came to use it again today and found that at 5am my husband in his infinite wisdom, had decided to make toast with the mandoline on top - so it's now melted together.This was perfect for slicing, good guards, easy to use, dishwasher proof but not toaster/ husband proof! Need anoher one, and having looked at the others on the market, I don't see why I would need anything else but this one!

Bought this in 2020 and has been a great tool, however over the last couple of months the black plastic on the side has been disintegrating and microplastics all over our food. It's lasted 4 years but no longer!
