What the testers found
America's Test Kitchen's Best Overall mandoline, rated higher than the de Buyer for performance and versatility and equal for sharpness. "Its razor-sharp blades can handle even the toughest produce, and it can be set in a seemingly infinite range of thicknesses, effortlessly churning out paper-thin or chunky slices and julienne." It's a simple plank you can hook over a bowl. The catch: "Just don’t expect much from its hand guard, which is pretty much useless." A cut-resistant glove is worth buying with it. ATK didn't test long-term durability.
