Pros: Easy to clean. Solid cast aluminium chasis.
Cons: After slicing just a few cabbages, the motor got extremely hot and the slicer began to smell. The 10-minute per hour duty cycle as the manual recomends is too little for any serious work. My unit will die soon from motor damage.
The safety switch will cause cramps if you have to hold it down for more than a few minutes.

This is such a wonderful slicer. It is very easy to handle and most importantly can be cleaned in a short time. It's perfect for a bonless ham. I would definately say this is a must for anybody with a large family. It is well worth the investment!

impossible to use for long periods of time (1 min) dut to poorly designed safety for on off switch

look for chef's choice

I knew when I purchased this unit that cleaning up would a challenge, but hoped that the time saved slicing meat would more than compensate for the clean up time of the blade parts and sliding components. Alas I must say it is not true unless you have a large amount of beef or ham to slice. It is just not that fast or smooth working to make it worth getting out for the smaller roast or turkey. I think if I did it again, I would spend more and buy a larger unit. You also need to cut up large roasts to smaller sized pieces for it to work well with this slicer
