Electric Meat Slicer Machine for Home Use, 200W Deli Food Slicer,Meat Cutter Machine,Aluminum,Dishwasher Safe, Removable Blade & Food Carriage and Pusher, 7/8 Inch Adjustable Thickness

I bought the CukAid 200W Electric Meat Slicer about a month ago after reading the reviews & satisfied myself that I would be getting a serviceable unit. I was right! It is a solid unit, has some heft to it. It was packed very well even though the box looked like it had been roughed around. The unit came with the smooth and serrated blades and an instruction manual. The cord is about 34"+/- so I had some maneuvering room on my counter. I was concerned pre-purchase about the food platform sliding back & forth being a smooth motion. It is a fluid movement it does not get cocked & stick. I first sliced about 10lbs of boneless ham into lunch meat. Cut the ham in half then the halves in half. It was easy to setup and sliced the ham very easily. The next project was to slice 5 lbs carrots for home canning. I have a mandoline slicer but the CukAid was much easier/faster. Using it I sliced the 5lbs and cleaned the unit in a little over 45 minutes. It is easy to clean. Everything comes off and a sink of sudsy water cleans them up. A damp sponge wipes the back & rest of the unit then an alcohol wipe does the rest. You do need something to unscrew the screw holding the blade on. A US nickel works great. (you can see it taped to the blade box for handy use. That is the only thing I can think of that would have made this item 100% perfect, something to unscrew the blade. I had no trouble with the motor 'bogging' down as I thought I would with the ham or carrots. Just go slow and steady when you push the food through the blade. I could not use the clear plastic food holder for the carrots but I did use a glove that came with my mandoline to keep from cutting myself. Don't get in a hurry and be cautious WHERE your hands are the blades ARE SHARP. You don't want to be distracted when using this kitchen appliance.

Used it to cut half a turkey breast and multiple heads of cabbage for sauerkraut. It does what you want it to do a few times a year, and doesn't take up that much shelf space. Wasn't that noisey, it groans but still cuts. Tried it to make cauliflower steaks but that didn't go well. Wish it came with two blades, mine just has the serrated, would purchase the smooth but there was no instructions for doing so.

I was expecting this meat slicer to be bigger and bulkier but was happy to see that it is light and fits nicely on my counter! It is quiet and cuts meat very smoothly. The slicer comes with 2 blades: serrated for thicker, denser meat, and the smooth blade for more precise cutting. There is a dial to adjust the thickness of slices and the moving meat tray comes off for easy cleaning. The instructions are sparse so I had to figure out how to change the blades and use the plastic meat "pusher" myself but it is a very simple design that most people will be able to figure out quite easily. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised by how well this meat slicer worked for the price I paid. I wish I would have bought one years ago!

I am not sure what the issue is, but there is a small piece of white plastic that is at the base where everything comes together that just rips the crap out of everything I try to slice. Looking at photos of other brands and models, they all have something there. Slicing the sourdough bread was a disaster. Totally mutilated slices of cucumbers, apples, and potatoes (were they too hard??). The sourdough bread is tougher than this cutter. A complete dud for me.

A great, solid machine for HomeKit use. Simple to use and easy to clean. We chose this particular machine because of price relative to the motor wattage rating. While we haven’t used the machine a lot as yet,, it has met or exceeded all expectations. ( Power, slicing ability, operational, safety, etc.). Further, I have to comment on the Customer Service support. Thus far, we have not had a need to reach out to them, but, they have reached out to us to make sure that we were satisfied with every aspect of the machine This was a nice touch. .

I absolutely love this meat slicer. I have already used it a few times and looking forward to many more. It’s easy to use and easy to clean. It is light weight but doesn’t move on the counter due to the suction cup feet. It also is easy to adjust desired thickness. This is well made and comes with two different slicing blades. Now I just need a kitchen scale so I can package my portions evenly! I also appreciate the offer to extend warranty to 24 months at no additional charge. Thank you!

I've used used it a few times, and overall it does an OK job. Even with the suction cup feet it slides around quite a bit. Whatever you cut ends up behind the unit, so I find it's easier to turn it sideways - slice with my right hand then pick up the cut material with my left. It was supposed to come with a serrated and a straight blade, but only came with one. I enquired and the seller sent me the other blade. Neither is particularly sharp, but both seem to work ok. Not sure what I'll do when they eventually get dull. I find I spend as much time cleaning it as I did using it. Again - "it works" and the build quality seems OK, but there's room for improvement.

Cons: gears are plastic as so is the guard.Pros: everything else about it is aluminum alloy and is heavier than it looks, but not where you can't move it around. It is perfect counter size and cuts really good. I was hoping I got the second blade but didn't, I read it wrong, so will be ordering the slim blade.Comes apart super easy for cleaning. I do not recommend putting it in the dishwasher, but that is just me.I make a lot of beef jerky, so it did very well cutting to the sizes I wanted. I cut my meat for jerky frozen to get better cuts and it did a really good job using the blade it came with, so yes, definitely need the skin blade. All in all, as a chef of 36 years and a beef jerky maker, I highly recommend this product. Very worth the price and quality. You also get a 30 day money back guarantee with an 18 month extended warranty. Can't beat that. I still give it 5 stars with the plastics.
