Removable compartments like those on the Fullstar and Kyocera can be handy for catching the output, while other versions can be folded flat for compact storage.Īny professional plumber, electrician, or auto mechanic will tell you that it's imperative to have the right tool for the job. The Mueller V-Pro tops our list for superior manufacturing quality, easy adjustments and a variety of interchangeable blades to slice, dice, julienne and more. These models include grippers, blade guards, and adjustable decks to get precisely measured cuts without losing so much as a fingernail in the process. Mandolines have come a long way since their early days, when it was all too easy for fast-moving digits to fall victim to the unprotected blades of those miniature guillotines and make a bloody mess of the fresh produce, not to mention send even experienced cooks to the emergency room. The Oxo Steel 2.0 and Mueller Austria V-Pro boast near-commercial-quality builds, so the chances of them breaking during home use are slim. The handheld designs of the Kyocera Advanced Ceramic CSN-550, Benriner Jumbo, and KitchenAid Adjustable V-Blade can make them very convenient to use in places where you might not have the counter space to set down other units, and it also allows them to be stored in places others can't fit. Other than those two notable replacements, we stand by all the rest of our previous recommendations. Unfortunately, cutting those cubes effectively does require a bit of practice, since you need to rotate the food holder between every slice, which is a little cumbersome.
We also think users will appreciate its wide deck and the ability to cube foods, which is something many others can't do. The former doesn't require you to swap out blade attachments to produce different cuts, so storing it will be a bit neater and there is no chance you might actually lose one. We also added the Progressive PL8-1050 in place of the Chef's Inspirations Premium.
In our most recent update, we replaced the Oxo Steel with the Oxo Steel 2.0, the latter of which offers more thickness settings that are more clearly labeled, allowing for more versatility and better ease of use. That's why it's important to always use the included safety guard when using a mandoline for food prep, and we also recommend considering a cut-proof glove to add an additional layer of safety. That being said, they are infamous for being a somewhat dangerous kitchen tool and practically every professional chef has a story about when they, or someone they work with, sliced off the tip of their finger when using one. Not only are mandolines are a great way to speed up prep work in the kitchen, but they can also help you get more uniform cuts on your sliced, cubed, and julienned fruits and veggies.
