Mueller Austria V-Pro Multi Blade Adjustable Mandoline Slicer

I have been debating buying a V slicer mandoline for quite some time, but hesitated because I am fairly skilled with a knife and I have a food processor (20 years old) that works well, and a straight blade mandoline (which is probably 30 years old). So far, with my new kitchen toy, I have made sweet potato chips, paper thin. I was really happy with how “almost” effortless it was. With my existing tools, it was challenging to say the least and I rarely got the results I wanted. I also shredded cabbage, (something I can do by hand), but it was so much easier and quicker with the V slicer. I had watched one of my favorite TV chefs (Alton Brown), and he had said a V slicer was the best tool for the job of shredding cabbage, he was absolutely right. It was so much quicker, I am not a fan of store bought cabbage mix, it never tastes fresh and you get so little compared to a whole head of cabbage. I use a lot of cabbage in stir fries as well as coleslaw. I sliced some zucchini paper thin, just to see how thin I could slice, then I made adjustments to the thickness and engaged the julienne blades, I don’t think the are narrow enough to be considered “zoodles”, but the julienne blades would work well for regular fries or shoestring fries, or just julienne veggies for a stir fry or salad. I love all the adjustments, particularly how thin it will slice. I recommend watching the video, to see the julienne blades which are built in. The way it is designed with the julienne blades as a built in feature is genius. The hand grip does a nice job of holding the vegetables when you get down to the last few inches, which is a definite plus considering how sharp the blades are. The metal prongs within the handle do a great job of actually gripping the food. The accessory blades in their own storage box is a bonus, I am not sure I will use them often, but it gives me options. I may very well bring this slicer camping with us since it is an all in one tool that doesn’t require electricity and that doesn’t take up a whole lot of space). The unit itself does most everything I need and folds up close to flat. So far, I absolutely love this V mandoline. Now, I have to go buy more veggies, so I can see what else I can easily slice. This is a very well made and designed product. Thank you.

The blades are very sharp and for professional use

Loved it

This has cut my chopping time down to a third for the time it was taking me previously. I make lots of pickles and it was taking me so long to chop everything but this is fantastic! I use this for tomatoes, sliced first then put in, then onions in half then pushed through, works a treat in no time. I also use it to chop cauliflower for pickles and it has been just awesome, so glad I brought this!

Have been looking for years for a good Mandoline. So happy I found this on Amazon
