Nesco FS-120T American Harvest Food Slicer with Tilt Stand Review

Nesco FS-120T American Harvest Food Slicer with Tilt Stand
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this slicer primarily for meats. It works very well for that purpose. But when I started baking my own bread I began to use it to pre-slice the loaves for sandwiches and toast. Unfortunately the lip on the bottom of the slicer slot protrudes slightly, probably to ease the slice away from the machine. With bread, though, it causes it to catch in the opening between the blade and the back, and I have to readjust the thickness dial to the maximum in order to remove each slice. Often it tears the slice anyway. Not a particularly helpful feature. I'm not sure if another slicer would work better, but this one is really frustrating.

Housed in durable die-cast aluminum with a 90-watt motor, this food slicer works great for slicing meats, cold cuts, vegetables, cheese, and more--fresh deli-style sandwiches can now be enjoyed from the comfort of home. The unit comes equipped with an incredibly sharp 6-5/8-inch German-manufactured Solingen stainless-steel cutting blade for precision cuts. It also features a heavy-duty tilt stand and a unique "angle feed" surface for easier slicing. Conveniently adjust the thickness by turning the knob on the back of the unit for slices that range from paper thin to 1-inch thick. Other highlights include a dual safety switch, a user-friendly hand guard that safely moves meat where you want it, a design that disassembles, and dishwasher-safe parts (except for the control panel). The food slicer measures 10-3/4 by 13-7/8 by 9-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S 2-Piece Santoku Bamboo Board Set Review

Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Professional S 2-Piece Santoku Bamboo Board Set
Average Reviews:

I can't say enough great things about the craftsmanship of the Henckels Twin Professional series. After purchasing their Chef's Knife, we're sold on the entire line. Only one word of caution, there are a number of different Henckels lines. The Professional series provides the best balance and handling ease; something that the other lines don't. Be sure to purchase a wet stone for sharpening! Anything else will wear down these fine cutting instruments too quickly. Chop! Chop!

Wusthof Culinar 10-Inch Super Slicer Wavy Serrated Knife Review

Wusthof Culinar 10-Inch Super Slicer Wavy Serrated Knife

I wanted to replace my cheap knife block set with a great one that can last a generation and found Wushtof Culinar Series to my liking. Initially, I thought the metallic handle could be slippery. So, I went to a local store and tested it and found it to be be very very grippy and solid to hold. I liked how these knives curve on the handle. That helps handle get a perfect grip in the hand.
This is a very long serrated knife and it works great to slice meats, bread and large items like watermelon. With our old bread knife, we could hardly cut the bread neatly without crushing it producing lots of bread crumbs. With this one, we are able to cut the bread like they do at bakeries. Perfect!
You will not regret spending money on this. You can avoid get a seperate bread knife and carving knife if you get this one.

This is the super slicer, a 10-in. long knife with a serrated edge that's ideal for slicing foot-long sandwiches or artisan-style breads that tend to be larger than most. The serrated blade cracks through hard crusts yet won't tear and pull the softer insides so your slices stay intact for serving.Part of the Wusthof collection, Culinar knives feature the same legendary forged stainless precision blade and balanced design as lines such as Grand Prix. Its unique patented 18/10 stainless handle sets it apart from more traditional Wusthof knives, adding a contemporary elegance to a timeless, functional kitchen tool.

Viking Range White Stand Mixer 7 Qt. Review

Viking Range White Stand Mixer 7 Qt.

The machine died after 3 months. I am just starting to bake and was enjoying it until I taxed the Viking with bread making - not multiple loaves but just one at a time. It died very silently - no smoke or ozone/burnt motor odor - just quietly died while making cream icing with cream cheese and cream. I hit the reverse and it just started to make a gurgling noise and then was no more.
I called the company - not really the company but a repair facility in Detroit and was told the best they could do was to mail me a FedEx slip and I was responsible for boxing the unit and they would repair it.
When I suggested that they send me a box or another motor unit (I would send the current unit back) I was informed that this was not company policy. When I attempted to call Viking and when I asked to speak to corporate customer service I was directed back to the repair facility in Detroit - this happened over and over.
I mentioned that I bought the unit retail on the website they still insisted that they couldn't help me.
Cooks illustrated rated the Kitchen Aid Professional 600 as their number one choice - the Viking did not even make it into the first three best choices - I strongly agree. The Viking is more expensive and the service is lacking. And more importantly the maching is inferior.
I am considering the Hobart or the Kitchen Aid and I will keep the Viking as backup. When you buy a mixer get it from a department store that offers guarantees that include replacement units. I am going to the Sears website now.

One thousand watts of power and planetary mixing action ensure supremely efficient mixing and beating. Not only can this heavy duty stand mixer knead even the toughest whole grain bread dough into submission, it also has a sufficient range of settings, allowing it to tenderly beat a meringue. Locking pop up heads make clean up snap. A special stirring speed helps prevent flour pouf, and liquid splatter during the initial mixing stage. Max speed is engineered for whipping custards, cream, and meringues - in other words when you want to incorporate maximum air. There are numerous attachments available for this unit to increase its multi-tasking capabilities. If you've become a fan of Viking's reliability, quality and style, no doubt this stand mixer would be a most welcome addition to your kitchen.
