This mandoline offers the versatility of a French mandolin, but the efficiency of a Japanese one. Plus, it has v-shaped blades, which we found snag less than than some single blades. It includes three blades that allow for thick and thin slicing and shredding, as well as julienne cuts. Grips on the feet help secure the base, while the small foot on the opposing end angles it a bit for easier use. It also comes with a hand protector/food guard and a storage caddy.

Simple is often best, especially in professional kitchens. This no-frills mandoline slicer has one straight blade and adjusts to four different thickness levels, ranging from .5 mm to 3 mm. The blade is made from ceramic, which is known to hold its sharpness longer than other materials. Its hand guard is small, but does the job. The handle is basic as well, but allows you to get a more natural hold than competitors with straight handles and it also lies mostly flush with the mandoline's body so you can store it in a drawer.

Professional chefs around the world love the Benriner mandoline's super lightweight and no-frills design. Its narrow slicing surface easily cuts through tomatoes, potatoes, and there are three additional blades for fancy cuts. Just be cautious when slicing as the hand guard is smaller than most, and takes practice.

Stainless steel mandoline slicers aren't the easiest to use and often feel bulky and rough around the edges. This one from Gramercy Kitchen Company is sleek and has an easy-turn dial makes it simple to select from different thickness settings. Plus, it can make both straight and julienne, and waffle cuts. The large oversized handle makes for easy gripping, the wide feet give it a more secure stance, and the stand folds down flat when you're done using it.

Five cutting blades set this mandolin apart from others on the market. Options include a standard slicer, a wavy slicer, two shredders and a grater. The attachments are grey while the body is white to help you better differentiate the blade from the body. The body has a finger hole positioned away from the sharp side of the blade, designed to more safely remove the blades. The hand protector's knob is a bit small, but has space to protect your fingers and hand. Reviewers say it is easy to use and clean. It comes with a storing case for the blades as well.

It also comes with a very-much-needed finger guard, and is dishwasher-safe.

As you feed the food into the chute, press the plunger on top and the mandoline slices quickly. You can set it to slice from one to eight mm, and the best part is that your fingers never go near the blades.

This handheld mandoline is the only one we've seen where the round part of the hand protector comes off while the guard remains on the slicer so you can pop in ingredients without worrying about the food falling off the prongs or coming in close contact with the blade. The guard also has two walls on the front and back of it, so you can hold it in place when adding the fruit or veggie, and then protect your fingertips when slicing. The blade adjuster and storage lock is located on top, right near the handle, so you can easily adjust with one hand – another unique feature.
