I found it to be a very easy product to use when preparing food!

Best Slicer Ever! Bar None!! – I have had one of these V Slicers for over 20 years so feel more than qualified to review it. It is exceptional, convenient, practical, light weight,… Read more

easy to clean and although a have a kitchen FULL of ‘Bells and Whistles’ this is always my first go to. A must for all kitchens. It is extremely sharp so I never use it without the safety food holder, you WILL cut yourself if you don’t. If you haven’t got one, go and get one, you’ll love it!

Very happy with this slicer – Bought this for one purpose only, to slice home baked bread. The recipe & method used results in a very tough crusted loaf, and typical of a bread… Read more

maker, the loaf is quite tall, so difficult to cut manually. The machine arrived only a few days ago Ex Amazon, listed as "Ritter 501.020 Markant 05 Food Slicer", and it did a brilliant job, easily slicing through the thick crust, without force feeding it. Quality is typical of German made products, excellent fit and finish. Only time will tell if it lasts well, but initial impression is very positive, and the price was reasonable at Au$118. The only thing negative is the fact that it was delivered with two round pin plug, so had to use a cheap universal adaptor.

Great Slicer – I have had this slicer for years. It has sliced bread, ham, silverside and other meats. It slices well, still going strong. It is a bit of a pain to… Read more

clean, but nothing some hot soapy water and a brush doesn't fix. Would give it 5 stars, except for the cleaning issues, so gave it 4.

5/5 for grater but only 3/5 for durability – This is the best and fastest grater I have ever used, especially for carrot and hard cheese and similar textured foods. It cuts the food in fine… Read more

julienne bits that are nice and clean without half the food sticking to the grater. I would rather forgo grated carrot altogether if I couldn't use this grater as it make the job so much easier. It comes with a small plastic piece for gripping the food item which is recommended as you can grate your knuckles if you're too close to the blades as it is quite sharp, though personally I try to be careful but have still had a few cuts. Extremely fast and easy. Though the blades are stainless steel and are still sharp they are held in plastic and this is the part of it that breaks and wears out over time if used (I use it a lot in summer for salads). They also have silicone bits on the corners which will come off in time (and have ended up in my food!). Had the rest of it been made in stainless steel or something more durable this could well of become a "forever kitchen item". I have bought 2 over the last decade and attempted to buy another (because the plastic housing broke) but unfortunately this exact same style is no longer available with a newer model style combining the julienne grating blade with another grating option - I have not gone for this as I have no need for the other grating option and it looks like there will be more stress on the plastic and it may break quicker in my opinion. It is a shame that such an efficient product is made in a way that it still can fall apart. These have cost me approx $28-$30 so not really cheap. I find microplane graters just okay for other foods but they still macerate carrot or other veg. I have found that this type of grater is called a Korean or Ukrainian grater as I am trying to find another to replace my broken one.

Great but short-life – As many have found, Microplane is great, better than many graters before. But it is not durable. Don't know whether it is planned obsolescence. … Read more

Mine disintegrated after a few years (using about once or twice a week for Parmesan), with the plastic frame first to go, then the very thin metallic foil began to split. For what the grater does, which is a relatively simple task, it is expensive (A$25-$50). For the price, there has to be some grater out there which does a equally good but lasts a lot longer.

Great kitchen gadget – I have had mine for 10 plus years and use it often. Veggies are my go too. Like the option for different thickness and love no extra gadgets. Anything lower than a 4 would be user error. Clean up is a breeze, also. Show details

Don’t bother if you like sweet potato chips – Don’t bother using it to make sweet potato chips as if will break! Tried getting replacement blades from VGM International (supplier listed on box) who apparently don’t exist anymore so now this useless item will be going to landfill. Show details

Makes grating super easy and fast – Grates all hard vegis and cheeses perfectly and if you are careful, even things like capsicum if you keep it in the right position. Not super flimsy… Read more

plastic and everything fits together without issue.

I purchased this product to help with grating since I cannot grip things easily and have issues with my hands. Unfortunately the knob for the suction and the lock for the barrel require a lot of finger strength making it unsuitable for anyone with issues with fingers and hands. The suction base doesn't work on wood or any surface that isn't sleek. Thankfully everything is sharp enough that not using the suction base doesn't heavily impact use.

Washing up is relatively easy although things do get stuck in the plastic edging of the different cutting barrels.

Sturdy, does the job, and easy to clean – I use it for potato rosti and it was perfect for it. The strands held together in cooking much better than traditional grating. Despite being very… Read more

light, the whole thing doesn't shake much during use due to good suction on the base. Note that it leaves behind a slender cylinder core of the vegetable. But that is easily diced up afterwards.

My favourite feature is how easy it is to take apart and clean. There is nowhere for scraps to get stuck.

The product didn’t do what I needed it too. But Vanilyn from customer service was such a help, fast response, friendly and she really helped. Thank you Vanilyn. Kind regards Anna Show details

It does not cut Zoodles . so disappointed – The Slices are not cut through - left with fringe ..... did the designer actually make chips or noodles?????? It costs too much in postage to return it. Show details

Flimsy Slider – Found the slider a bit flimsy and doesn't hold securely in place. Have accidentally pushed it into the blade and damaged it. Pity as otherwise it is a good slicer. Show details

ADDS VARIETY and COLOR – Your able to add Variety and Color and more Health to any meal,especially pastas and Spaghettis and Stirfries,quickly.Colors of… Read more

carrot,zucchini,orange potatoes and more are attractive to children. I've even used potatoes for tuna rissoles to fast fry.

Be warned if your considering the Microplane box grater as many others have mentioned the metal grater is top notch but the plastic frame has been… Read more

terribly designed cracking not long after purchase. I take extremely good care of all of my products never been in a dishwasher and thought I was buying a premium product, lesson learned please see picture of another of my Microplanes coming apart. I rarely post but feel compelled to bring these inherent faults to the general public.

Absolutely useless. Won’t crush even the smallest garlic clove. I wouldn’t waste your money. Show details

Handy Product – I have been using both the coarse and fine grater for a couple of months and I find them easy to use. The graters look good quality and work well. … Read more

They are slightly bent but once you get used holding and placing them I see no problem. Its a bonus having covers for protection and storage.

Please do not buy – I bought this a few years ago and couldn't get it to work properly - tearing food. Put it on the shelf and bought it out again this week. After… Read more

complaining my husband gave it a try - same result - no sliced or julienned food. The food holder is a terrible design. This item was $99 when I bought it.

A waste of money – I bought this grater for approx $39 on sale. An expensive mistake. I wish I could return it as it does not grate cheese as I expected - continuously clogged making it very tedious to shred - buyer beware - do not buy this product!!! Show details

Not fit for purpose! – Turns zucchini to mush - doesn't cope with carrot. Traps food particles between the extremely sharp blades and the plastic casing. Difficult and… Read more

dangerous to clean. Lid/holder doesn't work. It doesn't grip the veges and isn't designed to push them all the way down the funnel. Not fit for purpose.

Waste of money – Purchased it to slice bread. Suction legs are not sting, so the whole machine moves when you slicing. Absolutely shocking to slice fresh bread. After… Read more

each slice, have to off the slicer and push the slice of bread out as its stuck. Inconvenient and dangerous even with slicer off, as it's easy to cut your finger on the blade. Slices are choped, not even. I do better job with my blant knife. Very disappointed

Poorly designed. "thickness gauge" 1/5. Not accurate AND moves wide (15 cm) open when food is held against it to slice. Loose. NO adjustmentment. Needs a thumbscrew to hold selected thickness in place. Show details

DON'T BUY – This appliance should be withdrawn from sale, it has a manufacturing defect, the internal rotor does not lock completely and stops grating as soon as… Read more

you apply a little pressure to the handle of the cheese to be grated, due to the gap between the rotor and the clip that holds it. The components used for construction feel like a children's plastic toy. I purchased Ariete Grati' in the past which is a completely different construction of much better quality. terrible product
