1.0 out of 5 stars What you'd expect., October 5, 2009

Bought this. First time out of box, couldn't even cut an onion. I had the correct holding plate and blade installed correct side up. Quartered a normal yellow onion, and the machine crushed it instead of cutting it. I could get it to work with the larger grate if I literally put all my body weight on top of it. Piece of junk. I will be returning it.

The chopper pictured is the old version that I used for years with all metal blades. The one that arrived at my house had plastic encased blades. Granted I did give the thing a workout cutting fries the first day but I didn't expect the blades to explode all over the kitchen when the plastic casing around the blades broke. I contacted Ronco customer care via e-mail to see if I could purchase a new french fry blade and they did not respond. Recommend going on e-bay and purchasing a "vintage" model.

My mom got one of these for a wedding gift. I'm 37 and it still works!

Unfortunately, the item pictured is not what you get. The picture is of the original model. The metal cutting rings shown have been replaced with cheaper plastic rimmed ones. The plastic pins on the springs that make top pop up broke on the first potato. I'll still use it but this is no where near the quality product the original was.

I've had a bunch of these slicers and they all require a lot of force for potatoes. But I've always found the Veg-o-Matic to be the easiest to use and clean.
