Hutzler Garlic Slicer / Shredder, White

I wanted a mini mandoline that DID NOT make paper-thin slices, and this works beautifully. The thickness is about that of a CD. It's very easy to use and slices multiple cloves of garlic in seconds. There is a small piece left after slicing, but it's about the same thickness as the slices. So, that's not a problem. I have not used (and will not use) the shredder side. It's just nubs and looks like it would create a nasty mess. If I want "shredded" garlic, then I will just use the garlic press. If you want paper-thin garlic that dissolves in the pan when cooking, this IS NOT for you. It serves its purpose for me!

I broke my old Hutzler garlic slicer after almost 20 years of use. The blade had gotten rather dull and I applied too much pressure and it broke the plastic on one side of the blade. The last time I tried to buy another one of these garlic slicers Amazon did not have them nor did anyone else. I was thrilled to see that they are back out there again. It arrived two days ago and I am overjoyed to have a sharp and intact Hutzler garlic slicer again. I also own an OXO garlic slicer and a Microplane garlic slicer and the Hutzler beats both of them hands down. The garlic slices are consistent in thickness and it operates very smoothly. Just place it over a bowl, put peeled cloves in the hopper and start slicing. It's great for slicing ginger as well.

I use this for my Asian pickles since it's so convenient and easy to slice super thin cucumbers. It can be used for other things too but it's my go to for cucumbers.

I like cooking with garlic, but don't so much like trying to slice the irregularly shaped cloves. This device handily solves that problem. You can quickly slice several cloves of garlic for cooking. As the smallest sections get down to the blade, they sometimes don't go through properly, but that may be a process of getting used to the product. I'm glad I purchased it.

The garlic slices are uneven and thick. Stick to a good sharp knife and pass on this. I wouldn’t have given it even one star but Amazon won’t submit with nothing in that box.

This is hands down one of the best kitchen gadgets I own. I eat a LOT of garlic and this works so well and fast that it has made my life so much easier! I will, no exaggeration, use an entire head of sliced garlic in my Tuscan short ribs (2 servings) and I used to have to slice them all by hand. I also love using this slicer to slice ginger into thin rounds for pho. It is also a breeze to clean. I think I might buy more of these to give as gifts to people I really love.

This little slicer is small and so easy to use, I've given it as a gift many times. Fits in a small space, so keep it close to where you do food prep so you can whip it out. You will get beautiful, thin slices that are perfect for salads. Makes adding those stronger items much easier when you can get them thin enough that the taste in the mouth is subtle instead of overpowering. Scallions, shallots, onions...they even look great sliced with this! Great for slicing items to saute, too. No assembling (I don't always use the safety hopper), just start slicing. It is small, so if you are slicing an onion or large shallot you might have to cut it first to get a piece that will fit in the blade. Just rinse off and pop in the dishwasher. Order two and give one away! Oh...the very best thing...they are so inexpensive that you need not worry about dulling blades or giving one to an envious witness to your meal prep.

The mandolin slices well.. It doesn’t slice as thin as I was hoping. Instead of getting 20-25 slices from a clove of garlic you will see about 6-8 slices… I have sliced carrots and fingerling potatoes and it works well with those veggies..

Lo compre en realidad para rebanar chile serrano el rebanadas delgadas sin tener que tocar tanto tiempo el chile y me fusionó de maravilla, también rebané ajos y obvio todo excelente, lo acabo de adquirir así es que no se que tanto le dure el filo

This is a real handy little item. Works well.

It is a lot better than slicing garlic by hand. Cutting my time in half when making garlic powder.
