Product reviewsProgress EK3683P Electric Food Slicer - White

Slices well but slightly difficult to operate.

Used it for the first time today. I slices meat well. There are a couple of challenges I have experienced. Firstly, there appears to be no way to make it run continuously which means you have to keep your finger on the ON switch whilst operating the sliding table. Secondly, the spiked gripper doesn't seem capable of securing a pice of meat sufficiently so that the sliding table can be used continuously. It was, in fact necessary to grip the meat in my left hand in order to secure it through the blade. This fine for someone who knows what they are doing but rather risky for the inexperienced.
So to summarise. To slice a small beef roast I had to hold down the ON switch with my left hand, grip the piece of meat in a combination of spiked gripper a secure finger on the joint, and holding the other fingers on the sliding table. All a little bit difficult but I may have missed something in the user instructions.Read full review...

Slicer

The product is good quality and does what it says on the box, although it
is for home use and not so much for a business.

Easy to use but needs a large kitchen

Not easy to move around best suited to a kitchen with a lot of work top. Easy to use and clean

Perfect slices every time

The slicer works so well. Uniform wafer thin slices of meat or thick slices of bread are easily cut. It has suckers on The feet to stop it moving about the work top. The only small negative comment is it's fiddly to clean. Read full review...

Even though product is fine for meats etc. I really wanted it to slice homemade bread. Unfortunately, the tray doesn't allow for bread loaves unless they are small. The advert did state it could slice bread. Maybe it should provided more details on dimensions, then saved my money. Lessons learnt Read full review...

Not worth it

You cannot accurately set the machine to a specific width. This product needs a redesign. I would definitely not buy this again. Originally bought one from Lidl and that was good but unfortunately the sliding mechanism was not so robust. Read full review...
