I am considering this mandoline, any advice? Thx

[sir pball]

15. Yeah, French mandolines are definitely a different beast

$175 is actually a deal, they're over $200 for a lesser brand at Williams Sonoma. At least it's a durable good, your grandchildren will get your money's worth out of one!

That being said, I use mine maybe three times a year, I almost always grab the Japanese one instead. Quicker, easier, and just chuck it in the dishwasher when I'm done. Also 1/5 the price…
