Cuisinart Precision Slice Upright Mandoline: Safe Mandolin Slicer, Nonslip Base, Dishwasher-Safe, Freestanding Design

Used and missing the food pusher. Food particles in bottom of bag the slicer was in. The food pusher was missing. The cleaning brush was just thrown in the bag with the slicer. Disgusting. It was a pickup order. I’d not have purchased in store because the seal on the packaging was broken indicating the box had been opened already.

It works great. I like the stand-up feature but it is impossible to clean

I don't know where many of these extremely positive reviews are coming from. I think these "tester" folks didn't really use the product at all. This product is extremely difficult to clean. Sure, you may be protected from the blade while cutting and because it can't be taken apart, but you won't be protected from it while you try to get all the bits of mashed up food out that get stuck in places inside that can't be reached. I've only used it once and spent 30+ minutes trying to get all the little bits out, from all angles. That little brush is not going to do much at all. Blasting with spray from the faucet did not dislodge the food from inside this thing. A bunch of food was wasted by being smooshed up in the bottom - about the same that is wasted with the other type of mandolin when you can't slice close or you'll cut your finger. If I can't find a better way to clean this, to the thrift store it goes and I'll go back to using a knife. The blade assembly piece that you push down, needs to be able to be removed from the top so it can be cleaned.

Do not buy this mandoline. Bought it since I saw it used in some YouTube videos for Hotpot, and an upright mandoline seemed to be better than the standard style. The design for this is atrocious and I should have paid more attention to the videos on it(you can see food getting stuck in the chute or it conveniently cut out) Food gets stuck on every part of it, so you have to get something thin to push anything you cut out. The dice blades are not covered, so anything you cut will get scored by those blades. I've used it two times since I bought it since I couldn't get it clean. Finally today I was tired of looking at it still not clean from the second time I used it (no matter how much I tried to clean it, would keep finding more pieces of food stuck in places) and I took the entire thing apart after ANOTHER attempt at deep cleaning it. It is NOT meant to be taken apart making that process a massive pain, but the amount of food I found caked into places you CANNOT access was disgusting, and even with it fully in pieces the main grey piece is all one, so you still have to fight to get a mini bottle brush or tooth brush into places to clean. It isn't safer than non upright models, the consumer can't clean it, and it can't even cut produce without damaging it. I have no idea what I'm going to do with mine, I wouldn't even give this away to someone I hated. AVOID THIS PRODUCT.

WARNING! Doesn’t work as advertised and almost impossible to clean. Customer pays for return shipping and it states “unused”… not sure how one can review product without utilizing it. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Easy and safe to use. Very sturdy. Easy to clean. Bought two extra for family members. Love it.

A mandolin that makes me (and my husband) feel confident that I will NOT injury my self. I cut raw sweet potatoes 2-3 times a week to dehydrate for my dog's treat. My old style mandolin used to take 30-45 minutes to get them sliced and I didn’t always get consistent thickness with the upright I had everything sliced in 20 minutes and consistent thickness Very easy for someone with arthritis

As a slicer, this is safe. It's well engineered, but has a number of caveats: 1. All of the parts are plastic and rely on friction fit between parts. If you drop any part of this machine and snap off a tab or fitting, the stand or storage ability will be ruined. 2. The slice angle is at 45 degrees and can't be changed. Carrots, cucumbers - anything stick-like, slices at an angle. Use gently and it will serve you well, but if you're prone to dropping things, this won't last long.

No way to take it apart for cleaning... Small bits get stuck and very dangerous to get them out.

I love this upright mandoline. I had bought a cheaper one, but ended up returning it because it was very difficult to slice potatoes and I ended up slicing part of my fingernail off, despite using the guard. It slipped. Anyway, I no longer worry about slicing off my finger or nails. It's very sturdy, and easy to use. It works great for potatoes, which is primarily what I bought it for. I love fries and baked potato slices. This makes it a breeze. I did try a roma tomato, just for kicks. That didn't work so well, but in all fairness, I didn't expect it to. The unit is also easy to clean and store. I feel it is worth the price tag, and I'm glad I decided to purchase it.

Easy to assemble and much safer than a mandolin. I used it to julienne carrots for a Korean Spiced Carrot salad and it worked great. It would have taken me forever to do it with my handheld julienne slicer!

I've only used this a few times but it works very well. The blades are nice and sharp, the design is user friendly and it stores quite compactly. I'm looking forward to using it frequently.

This mandoline slicer works flawlessly. I have not used it to julienne yet, but I'm sure it works great in those functions as well. Very easy to clean and store.

Love this sleek design cooking pot. It's easy to use and cookes up means incredibly fast. Doesn't dry the food out and it's very easy to clean out

Love this! So easy to use and love the safety feature to protect hands. My Grandbabies now can help without fear of being cut. Cleaning is very simple and stores very well without taking up much room. Highly recommend!

This is such a time saver for slicing my veggies, only thing is, sometimes they fly all over, and if your item your slicing isntoo small, the pieces get stuck and its really hard to clean, its still is better than the regular mandolins amd much more safer.

I have developed overuse injury on my wrist and fingers over the years. The occupational therapist reassured me I could still cook. And bake but I needed to rethink how I see my hands when buying, carrying, and preparing food. He gave me many tips. I started to look for ways to slice, dice, chop things. There are so many in the market. I never took to the classic mandolins. When I was doing my online search, I came across this Cuisinart upright mandolin. I’m so glad I found it. Now, I’m back to preparing meals again. And with far less discomfort or pain! Thank you for this, Cuisinart!

I love the mandolin, it's easy to use. The only draw back is cleaning it. I wish it came apart for easier cleaning.

This tool is great! Perfectly slices potatoes with no risk to fingertips. The blade moves instead of the food being sliced. It cleans up easily and stores in a compact unit.
