Slicey:Slicey Hand Mixer DeLuxe
Hand Mixer DeLuxe White
The wand works superbly, but it is the Slicey that makes me really happy. I have arthritic hands and am always trying to find a good tool to slice my veggies. Everything I have ever used, from top of the line food processors, large and small, and mandolins, to a shooter-style apparatus, always left me with odd sized chunks and slices with weird shapes, along with almost whole pieces that appear to simply have slid through sideways. Consistently, the outcome was unappealing
-- fine for the family but not acceptable for serving guests. The main
reason I bought the Bamix was for the Slicey, my plastic blade holder in
the Braun processor had cracked which introduces bacteria, etc). Every
Bamix Slicey picture or video that showed sliced onions, etc., showed
textbook perfect slices. All my previous slicing efforts left me
skeptical but I really was willing to try everything until I found
something that worked well. So, I have to admit to feeling a bit of
outright glee at seeing my first batch of sliced onions
-- they were all
evenly beautiful! The Bamix Slicey rocks, plain and simple. This tool
is precisely engineered and so accurately fabricated that each slice was
perfect. I thought I would have to put the onion quarters in a certain
way for good results but that nothing but dropping them int he tube and
pushing the plunger was necessary. It was fast and the results were
brilliant. The chute is a bit narrow but I can work with that. UPDATED
to add: One very important and disappointing thing to note is that it
cannot be submerged and I am always nervous washing it.
