Nesco FS-140R 150 Watt Food Slicer

Nesco FS-140R 150 Watt Food Slicer

Big price for small performance.
I purchased this slicer at an outside retailer, but since I understand the importance of product reviews on Amazon and how helpful they have been for me in making purchases, I felt that I should give my review on this product.

Initially, I saw this slicer on sale for $69.99 and thought that I always wanted a slicer. On the box it says that It will slice breads, meats, cheeses, vegetables, and frozen foods. The item was packaged well in a box in plastic wrapping and styrofoam forms. The slicer came fully assembled with a care/use guide printed in English, Spanish, and French. As with any food processing equipment, I knew that I needed to thoroughly clean it before its initial use. I opened the guide and began to read. The disassembly instructions were simple to follow. One humorous thing to note is that although on the box it advertised that it could slice frozen foods, in the user guide it says do not use on frozen foods or bones. When I removed the blade I noticed...

Poor Quality
This item is just too flimsy. I would not be able to recommend this product since I did return the item. The quality is just not there.

this slicer is garbage
If you buy this slicer return it now, don't use it if you want your money back. Nesco has a bad bad return policy, take my word for it. I bought one of these and am now stuck with it
