Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Trudeau Adjustable Cheese Slicer
Customer Review: Better than the rest.
Summary: 4 Stars
Well, I'm back for a second slicer after my two wires did break. Too bad I didn't keep the first broken wire as the one person said they have a 5 year replacement warranty... I have had many slicers that all break, I like this one the best so far mostly because of the replacement wire (even though it can be very tricky to get in). I've realized that I will replace slicers at least every other month (with eating about 2 1/2 lbs of cheddar cheese a week). We have kids and I don't want them using the sharp knives so, I'm buying another. I've had Kitchen Aid and other nice ones, but I'll stick with this kind, it's been 10 months since I bought it, which lasted much longer than any other. This time I'll keep the reciept, and the parts for when it breakes and maybe get a free third one.Customer Review: Not good for left-handed users

I can't figure out why it would make a difference which hand is used with this product, but so far, when I've tried to use it (with my left hand), the roller immediately falls off. This happened three times in a row. I was attempting to cut a nice smooth block of cheddar cheese. When my girlfriend tried it (she's right-handed) it worked fine and the roller didn't fall off. I would return it, but it's not worth the bother, and I already threw away the package. Anyway, I'm able to use it without the roller attached at all (just with the wire), though I don't have as much control over the thickness of the slices. I guess I'll try again in the future with a different piece of cheese, but I'm not optimistic!Customer Review: better than the others

I bought four cheese slicers and returned three. This is definitely the best.Customer Review: Cheese slicer

I am very happy with this item. It does a good job of slicing cheese. I would have liked it better had it been a little smaller. It is a good sturdy tool.Customer Review: Macho Cheese Slicer
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a hefty kitchen tool--large, heavy, chrome. It fits comfortably in the hand and is easy to guide. I'm not sure why there are three "thickness" settings, since I've always been able to cut both thin and thick slices with a grocery-store-type cheese slicer by simply changing the angle of my hand as I slice: upright for thick slices, flatter for thin ones. This slicer works very well for me, and I had no trouble removing and replacing the wire. One slight inconvenience: when I hand-wash the slicer, the roller (the "adjustable" part of it) always falls out and has to be put back in. The slicer comes with a spare wire, and if you can remember where you store it, this unit should last for a long time. I'd recommend it.
