Rating  - Gets the job done with a bit of effort
This is a decient product. It is very easy to clean and has a wide veriety of thickness settings. It is also deciently sturdy, though it gives a little under pressure.
It is a little slippery to work with though, as my biggest complaint. It takes a bit of force to push something through. I wish the hand grip was spring loaded though, because once an item your slicing gets smaller, it tends to take a little work to get it to slice further.
Over all it is not bad, definately worth it for the price. Folds up nice and neat for storage.
Rating  - Great Device, but watch your fingers
I read all the reviews here and I want to weigh in too.
This is my first Mandoline. I saw a chef on the Food Network slicing potatoes into rounds that were so thin. She made healthful (olive oil, sea salt and cracked black pepper) potato chips by baking them on cookie sheet. My weakness is chips, so I bought it for that reason alone.
Seriously, I like the tool for slicing other fruits and vegatables too. It is easy to use and clean, but be careful. It also take us almost no space in your drawer, and it comes with a blade guard for storage. I was tempted not to use the "holder" when I got towards the end of the potato or tomato. My wife stopped me before I went to use my hand.
My one beef was the box said an instructional DVD was included in the box. It wasn't. But, the Zyliss website has the video. So I watched it before using it. I strongly recommend that.
I plan on using this to improve presentation of my salads. I'm not going to nitpick over the pros and cons of the julienne blade. If you want really fancy shapes, buy a different tool. This is a meat and potatoes mandoline that does its job very well. It's worth the money at $30, although I found mine at a Home Goods for $20.
Rating  - Zysliss Mandoline Slicer
I bought this mandoline because I thought that it would help me with my food preperation. The only thing it's really good for are onions. I would have liked the julliene option to work, but unfortunately the end product is not what it's suppossed to be. The mandoline is at its' best when it's folded up in a drawer, it doesn't take much space and there are no blades to store. However, it's not so simple to fold or re-fold. I don't reccommend this product.
