5.0 out of 5 stars The Choice of Professional Chefs
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 15, 2019
Benriner mandolins are what you will find in professional kitchens, so you know they gotta be good. Dead simple & sturdy with none of the fancy and unnecessary extras like a stand.

I also own the previous version of this mandolin. In order to adjust the cut thickness on the old model, it was necessary to dial in two small thumb screws on the back. This new model replaces the screws with a large dial which greatly simplifies thickness adjustments — it's definitely a big upgrade not having to fiddle with two small screws.

My first mandolin was a Selkin Borner V1 which for some reason was very highly rated (it was America's Test Kitchen's pick & they are usually pretty good about their picks). However, I found it to be flimsy & a pain to store with it’s sharp, bulky blade attachments (by contrast the Benriner's blades are small & thin & easy to store). Eventually, I got so fed up with the Borner that I upgraded to my first Benriner

I'm not sure if they are still making a "narrow" version (the old green colored model). I recommend getting the wide version as it's extra width comes in handy while still being ergonomic. I haven't seen or tried the new jumbo model, but if you are slicing something like large eggplants, it might be for you.

Regarding some of the complaints in the reviews, if you are finding it difficult to use, I would recommend watching a YouTube video or two — for example, ChefSteps has a quick video of Chef Grant using the old model. The blades are crazy sharp, so if they are not cutting your product properly (also a complaint in the reviews) check the manual or watch some videos.

And a finally a word of caution: Mandolins are famous for cutting fingers. If you are at all uneasy about using the slicer, use the included safety guard keeping all digits on the guard. Otherwise use a good technique as Chef Grant does in his video or use your palm as you'll see in restaurants.

Happy slicing!

P.S. The picture was my mise en place for BBC Good Food's Horseradish Potato Dauphinoise recipe. I can also highly recommend this dish, and it would be a great way to introduce yourself to your new Benringer mandolin!
