Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International Tower Slicer
Customer Review: Works great, wishing for different blades!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this slicer specifically because all the other that are similar in function only dice or make sticks. I wanted one that would do slices, because mandolines are a pain and often dangerous. This one works great, but the blades are at least 1/4" apart, which is actually pretty thick. You won't be making chips with this one! I wish there were other styles of blade offered.Customer Review: terrible dull blades
Summary: 1 Stars
i bought this because i have always in the past had good products from progressive (my RV kitchen is filled with their gadgets :) ), in fact i even through out the box before tried it. This product does not work. I bought it specifically to slice tomatoes, cukes, and onions quickly and evenly... like the restaurant machine i have seen. but this just squishes the tomatoes -- the blades aren't sharp enough to slice. I tried an onion - and was not able to push hard enough to get it to slice - in fact i think its completely useless for me (maybe something super soft like strawberries)... unfortunately without a box i cannot return it either.. so its just a waste. also on a side note -- the little cleaner fork is sized oddly so that it does not fit into the item for storage - which means storing it elsewhere, meaning in all likelihood it will be lost...Customer Review: worst product I've purchased
Summary: 1 Stars
On the surface, this looks like the wonder product. It slices! It dices! It's from Starfrit! Well, looks are deceiving. The insert for the blade does not fit securely enough into the container. Each time you press down and slice something, the whole insert pulls out with the pusher and lid. Each time I had to pry the blade and insert out of the lid and pusher, reinsert it, place the vegetable, push down to slice/dice, then repeat. I finally gave up and switched back to my Nicer Dicer. It may not slice as well, but it works perfectly every time! I would not recommend this Starfrit for purchase.
