Christy's Cooking Channel I'm the same way. Nothing truly replaces a knuckle buster. However, getting older sucks. Now that my hands just can't do that anymore, I bought a knock off of this about 6 months ago, and it does what I need it to- mostly grating cheese. I've learned to use it for other things, like making scalloped potatoes, or chopping onions. I agree with James, that the finest blade is almost useless, but have found it's useful for drier things or juicing things with a higher water content. Clean up is important, and having used my momma's Kitchen Magician, I think that was a little easier to clean, but the Nutri-Slicer fits easily into a drawer when broken down. That definitely makes it worth the $12 I spent on Ebay. Cheers!

Great review! This thing definitely looks promising. Those rubber seal things that are supposed to stick a device to a table are notorious for "un-sticking". I have a number of crafting devices (die cutters etc) that employ the same method for making the device stable....and at best you tend to get a few minutes at most. Sometimes dampening the rubber helps a bit, but usually you just have to "re-stick" it every few minutes to keep it stable, I've just learned to deal with it! I use a lot of walnut meal in cookie recipes and this thing would be grate (get it?...grate/great...lol...yeah, umm) for this. I tend not to like food processors, they are huge and I hate to clean them.
@joannmccraw72355 жыл бұрын
Lettuce, cabbage and onions all have a very high water content ... they rarely work well when cut, sliced or chopped very, very small ... more mush than anything else. When grated or sliced using a larger cut, they work much better. When grating or slicing each of them, if you cut across the layers instead of into the side of the layers, you will get a much better result. Any fruit or vegie that grows in layers should be cut across the layers instead of into the larger surface of the layers.

Looks like a manual version of the Salad Shooter! Same three blade configuration and all. You really need to use the slicing blade when you're shredding cabbage for coleslaw or sauerkraut. Works perfectly. The only thing the smaller of the two grating blades is really good for is grating hard cheese (parmesan, etc.). or grinding nuts practically to a nutmeal. Try the larger grater or even the slicing blade for larger chunks of walnuts. Love your reviews!

The amount of pressure and the consistency of the pressure makes a huge difference in the results. The chopper ... one with the smallest holes is best used with more solid food (nuts, very cold hard cheese and even hard dry bread). Now, having said that, it can also be used to make 'mush' of your veggies for your baby/toddler and/or someone with no teeth. OR a fast cook when added the last minute to soups ... retains more nutrients, flavor and fiber. ;-P

I've never encountered a suction cup bottom on a device that actually worked. my familiy had several different types over the 80s and 90's and they apparently haven't improved on the concept. 3. The fine (chopping?) blade looks like it could be good for very dense but not hard foods. Question: is this study enough to grind ice? Or more likely, frozen fruit?

For this and any items that "stick" with a vaccuum, moisten the bottom with the wipe of a sponge. The seal to the table will be better. I had a Salad Shooter that had similar grinders and the small one was best used for nuts, ice, or something you needed a fine grind on. The "chopper" was best for most other uses except celery and cabbage...the slicer is best for that with the grain of the cabbage perpendicular to the blade and the celery placed pretty much the same way.

I was gifted the NutriSlicer about four years ago. We were so excited to try all of the blades. I totally dislike the slicing blade, it made mush of the cucumbers, squash, etc. that we were slicing. We LOVE both the shredding blades for cheese. We only buy block cheese and have saved lots of money shredding our own cheese. We most use the smaller shredding blade for finely shredded cheeses. We too find it frustrating that it doesn't always stay suctioned to the counter, ours is granite, although sometimes if you slightly wet the bottom of it, it suctions better. Sadly, just last week the support for the blade holder broke right above where it slides in. I found your review by searching to see where we could purchase another one, because we miss it and hand grating cheese is exhausting.

It also takes a little more time to clean it . ( More parts ) I'm old school. I prefer the metal square slicing device with 4 different cutting edges that my grandmother used. And it's easy to clean.

Hi thee, I recently bought this slicer for us as we all cook and use utensils in the kitchen. It grated cheese in a whizz, it looks good for what it is, yes it does slip on the counter just take your time! I think the shredder is just a finer version of the large hole grater , sometimes I like fine grated cheese. It might not work for a hard cheese just be careful. The slicer could work great for beetroot or potatoes as shown. It can go with on outings in case there is no grater and you wish to cook yourself. Buy it to use, don't buy is you are a fussy chef!! Review was great, thank you.

One thing I noticed is it matters the orientation of the onion and cabbage to the grating blades! The chopping blade was having trouble because of the way you put the onion and cabbage in the feeder!

You should try the salad shooter! Same concept but no manual crank. It’s AMAZING

Oh wow... I have a Kitchen Magician. It was my dad's, & he gave it to me when I got my first apartment. I can say the suction cup base doesn't lift off the counter like the nutri slicer does. I was expecting to see you grate some parmesan with the "chopping" blade, as the tiny holes seem best suited for hard / dry foods (like the walnuts).

I have the electric one that's very similar only it was called The Salad Shooter. I use it when I grate partially cooked potatoes and I also use it for grating cheese. It works well to do both of those. They are nice if you have a lot of stuff to cut and chop or grate. Thanks for the review.

Presto’s salad shooter still looks best to me. It’s electric, not super expensive, has multiple blades, and ours have lasted for years and years. We use it mostly to shred or slice cheese, potatoes, carrots, and zucchini, but have used it on other things as well. It can get clogged by certain things, but it’s super easy to clear again and you can notice the clogging immediately. Plus it’s pretty small.

A few months back me and the wife ordered the nutrislicer. Now don't get me wrong as far as the performance of the neutral slicer for shredding cutting your vegetables with it it does a really good job the only thing is that it's very difficult to shred cabbage for coleslaw is the cabbage really gets jammed up inside the drum and the outer plastic container. The only big problem that I see with the neutral slicer is the suction base does not hold as soon as you begin to use the neutral slicer it begins to start wandering around on your top of your cabinet now my cabinet is a smooth surface so you would think that it would really stick to it when you turn the little knob for the suction plate to hold it in place. I would have to say that I would give the neutral slicer a two and a half score due to the fact that the suction plate really sucks because it fails to hold the nutrislicer in place while you're using it.

Reminds me of the SaladShooter my mom had, just manual. We loved that thing. It was great for holiday cooking.

Great review, I just bought one yesterday and before I open it I wanted to see how well it will work. Especially great to see you did a comparison of 4 similar products at the end. Thanks to you now I have the confident to open it and try it for myself. Will look forward to more of your videos. Thanks

My mom had one of these in the 70's. It was meant to be a hard cheese grater. Nothing new or ingenious here.

Two things: the smaller hole is more of a grater. Perfect for Parmesan. The one with the biggest hole is good for cheddar or things to make coleslaw. I like the slicer for potatoes the most so you can make your own chips in the air frier.
