With the OXO Basic Mandoline, making a salad, an apple pie, or a potato gratin will not only be easy but also a lot of fun. You can easily adjust the thickness of the slices to your liking with the knob on the side. You can set the thickness to 0.16 cm, 0.32 cm, and 0.64 cm. You can safely cut the food by securing it in the holder. The OXO Hand Mandoline also has anti-slip feet. For example, you can let it rest on a bowl so that the ingredients go directly into the bowl.
