Simposh Easy Food Dicer, Black

i use all the time to make fries

Kitchen aid

This works OK until like me you are a bit heavy handed and break a cutter , it took me a week. You then have a massive problem as spare parts are only available for m the US, although the EU (simposhEU) after the suppliers name suggests otherwise. The replacement blades are reasonably priced at $5, but the postage charge of $100 is the cost of 3 new dicers. Please do not buy.

Some of the reviews almost caused me not to buy it, but then finally decided to give it a try, because the idea looked intriguing, where you just pump a lever to spit out some fries, and it worked much better than I expected.It does take a little pressure, but not as much as with other french fry cutters I've used, where you have to press the lever down in one press with great force, sometimes having to slam it down, where I've broken the cutter and/or the blades in the past. The trick is to first cut off a piece at each end, making sure the lines are straight with one another. This makes it easier to cut the potato without it trying to curve or move out of alignment with the blades because of the rounded edges of a potato.Then just pump the lever, one press at a time, not too quick, and with just enough pressure to push the potato through the blades. For me, it was incredibly easy. I used the 25-hole blade because I prefer larger fries. And as noted in the description, and other people's reviews, don't cut sweet potatoes without microwaving them for a minute or two first to soften them.If interested, here's how I make my french fries. I place aluminum foil in a 9x9 inch pan, enough to fold over the potatoes, spray it with Pam Canola Oil to prevent sticking, place the potatoes in the pan, add a little butter, sprinkle with salt, lemon pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic powder, then fold the aluminum foil over the potatoes from each side to cover them, then bake at 475 degrees for 70 minutes. Pull them out halfway through, about 35 minutes, and shake/mix the fries around a bit, then put them back in for the remaining 35 minutes. Then turn off the oven, but leave the potatoes in the oven as it cools down for another 20 minutes, so they continue to soften throughout.Then add salt, garlic powder and lemon pepper to some ketchup (I put/mix this in a plastic storage container), then dip and enjoy! Much healthier than deep fried potatoes, and taste much better than air fry, imho.

We bought this to mostly make french fries and hash browns and have done both. We LOVE it. Quick and easy! Thumbs up!

I bought this for my Mom to cut potatos for her dogs homemade food. She is 79 and not strong, and has tremors so using a knife and cutting board was very difficult for her. This makes it much easier and safer. The ratchet propelled pusher advances the heavy, dense potato through the surprisingly sharp and stout cutting blade grid with a push down on the large handle. The ratcheting system allows a small person without much strength the leverage to push such a heavy, dense potato thru the blade grid with realitive ease. It does not slide around when operating. Very well thought out knife guide so the knife blade will not move side to side when the blade is in the guide, which is great for elderly people, or anyone with tremors and shakes.Overall, a great, easy-to-use, quality product that does what it promises.
