i love this product

Works good for slicing up jerky meat

Works great, recommend my friends to buy this

Déchiré les fruits et très bruyant. Même pas capable de couper un orange. Mon starfrit a 30$ va 100x mieux que cette trancheuse dites professionnel. Aussitôt essayé, Aussitôt retourné !

Great quality easy using

I bought this slicer on a Wednesday morning. It was delivered Friday by 11:30am. Granted, it ships from Florida, and it only had to go to Georgia, but that is impressive regardless for standard shipping. My estimated delivery was late next week at the earliest. I actually got the package before amazon updated the status of my order to shipped. Anyway, I have not used the slicer yet. I have kept low expectations as per the recommendations of the other 83 before me who have reviewed this slicer.The slicer looks very much like the picture but is a little different. If you want to know what the slicer looks like, home depot currently carries this slicer for $80 and is model number PS77711. You can also search for "professional series slicer". The main differences from the picture that I can see is that the blade is not serrated, and the suction cups are clear instead of black. Also, the frame of the slicer isn't rounded off to be flush with the blade at the top right side as shown in the picture on amazon. Mine extends a little beyond the blade and is black in color, so it appears that there is a little black triangular piece outside the blade at the top right. This doesn't impact the performance of the device, I'm just pointing out that the device in the picture on amazon is slightly different.All in all, I'm excited to give it a try tonight. I'll try to post an update this weekend.UPDATE: Ok, I cooked a sirloin tip roast and couldn't wait till the morning to cut it. My plan was to chill the meat like everyone said, but I was too excited. The meat was firm enough though to get decent cuts. Alright, here's my review. The rotational speed of the blade is fine, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. The blade is super sharp and I think people think they can just zip right through it like they see the people at the deli do. This is not the same machine. my cuts took about 1 second per pass. "onethousand one" is not a slow cut. Next, my backstop that the meat rests against when you slide the meat into the blade was not 100% aligned with the blade. It did not take much to bend it back slightly, leaving a little bit of lean to compensate for the pressure used when pushing the meat towards the blade. I read on one review that it only takes a couple slices to learn the little tricks to slicing consistently with this slicer. They were somewhat correct. I was not able to make consistent cuts every pass with this slicer and the warm meat I was using on my first try. When I say "consistent", I mean exactly the same. Sometimes my cuts were 1/16" and sometimes they were 1/8" depending on the pressure I used when pressing the meat through the blade. After a while the meat shifts with the spin of the blade, and you will notice that some cuts will be appropriately thick at the start, but shave down to nothing on the trailing end. This triangular type cut I've noticed happens even at the deli though, and I believe is hard to avoid with any slicer. I've seen them on every meat slicer review on youtube that attempts to make very thin cuts, which is all that I was interested in doing with my meat slicer. I can do everything else with a knife but make these 1/16" cuts.All in all, I'm very satisfied. I'm not doing cart-wheels, but I bought this slicer to do a job, and it did it. I didn't want to pay $100+ for the small convenience of cutting meat thin, and I'm happy that I took a chance on affordable model. Do I believe that my experience would have been better with a more expensive model, yes. Would it have been worth the extra $40+?...no. This slicer is a bargain for it's price. If money is a significant factor in your purchasing of a slicer, I would highly recommend this model. It's my humble opinion that your experience won't be better enough to justify the additional cost, unless you are willing to spend $500+ on a professional type model that is close to the slicers they have in grocery stores. This slicer does have it's flaws, but they are minor, and I argue that they would most likely be present in the other models meant for home use. Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. Cleanup, wasn't that hard. Yes, turn the circle screw clockwise to unscrew it, and everything comes off fine. There was some little pieces of meat and blood that got behind the blade. Nothing I couldn't get with a rag. Cleaning this device isn't just a simple wipe down and you're done. You do have to take some car to get in the little corners, but maximum time I would estimate at 3-4 minutes to have it clean. Anyway. I don't regret purchasing this machine. I don't believe you will either.

Well most reviews are just about features, not about what the products are intended to be used for once purchased, so I figured I'd take a different approach and maybe it would help someone who may be deciding to buy this slicer. When I was reading the many reviews on the multitude of slicers on Amazon I was confused as to why even slicers over $200.00 had buyers who were not satisfied. I was looking for a slicer to cut pork roll which is a fav at work and I get a roll about 6lbs and 5 inches in diameter and maybe a foot and a half long. You can't cut it by hand without getting fat and skinny edges on the same slice. This slicer however performed very well for the money. Most reviews I read said hard to clean, not enough power, sucks on cheese. Well, maybe cheese is too sticky when you cut it and pulls on the blade causing it to drag and slowing the motor down. maybe you need a commercial slicer for 300.00 or more or go sloooooooooooooooooower. I had not one bit of problem cutting, cleaning, or using this slicer to get the job done. I don't take it apart to clean, I wipe it down with soap and water after each use. Blade is still sharp as the day I bought it.i guess what I'm saying is that expectations seem to be too high for some people who purchase a slicer for under a hundred dollars. This thing is great for meats i will say. The motor seems very safe by slowing down the speed to keep your thumbs attached to your hand. i think it would be just about impossible to cut your self. I wipe the blade when it is running, with a dishcloth, and never even came close to having a scare. I imagine someone will prove me wrong and do it. We will call him lefty. Ha Ha. Well, to finish my review I will just say this is a great slicer for the price and I use it every week. If you are easily disappointed and think you should get everything when you paid next to nothing, then you probably won't be happy with whatever slicer you end up buying. Everyone else, stimulate your surplus by spending less for this quality slicer.
