I recently purchased this meat slicer for my kitchen, and it has completely transformed the way I prepare and enjoy meals at home. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

This is not a heavy duty machine and you will not get "professional" results. With applying the seller coupon and after tax I go this machine for $77. That's a bit high I think.

So far I've cut three roasts for jerky, roughly 3lbs each, which is about all I'm going to use this machine for. This should make good lunch and travel snacks way cheaper than you can buy in a store or on the road and all I have is beef and salt, none of that other crud they put in food these days.

The first roast was thawed to room temp and the slices rolled up into the machine easily. The second roast had been thawed in the 'fridge for 8-10 hours and was probably right where it needed to be when I cut it. The third roast was completely frozen and the machine didn't like that at all.
The machine seems well made but the blade drive gear is plastic and it already showing signs of wear after three cuttings.
The blade turns slowly and 'saws' its way through the meat which is why it does not do well with thawed meat as the teeth grab and drag.
Unfortunately, as expected from the warning of the seller, they're not sharp enough to handle a frozen roast and puts way too much stress on the motor. Even cutting slowly I had to stop three times and give the machine a cooling off period as I could feel it getting hot. Also, if the meat is too cold the blade flexes a lot. It was flexing so much I stopped and check to be sure it hadn't come loose.
If your meat is at the just right temp and consistency it performs well so prep your meat before slicing and give time for your roasts to thaw, unlike what I did on a Sunday morning because I forgot to set out my roast the night before but having a frozen roast gave it a good stress test.
Cleaning is not easy. You remove the blade and the 'pusher' that goes on the hand guard. That's all. I prefer more disassembly as I store my equipment when not in use and really want to be sure it's all clean.

I don't see this machine lasting a long time and when it breaks or burns up I'll probably buy a more professional unit. In the meantime I'll be sure to keep my meat just right and hope I can get some money's worth out of it. In the meantime it does well enough in slicing consistency to make carnivore crips and jerky.

I have used this product a few times and really like it, it is easy to use and clean. so far so good

suction cups keep the machine in place so you can slice safely.10 min. run time may be a problem for some .clean up is a breeze,remove the blade and wipe down with soapy towel or sponge.first use was to try cutting some hard salami.no problem ,i was able to slice very thin slices as well as 1/8 in.sliced.this is a huge step up from my old hand crank machine.weighs less to.over all i gave it 4 stars ,only because the prongs on the holder are very small ,that makes it hard to hold hard sausage.cuts roast beef very well.

Fantastic product for the price. I use it at the bar to cut the fruits to dehydrate for garnishing cocktails. I slice both ends of the fruit then set to 5mm, turn the slicer on and use the hand guard to slice the fruit into uniform sizes. I turn the fruit around halfway through otherwise the blade will start to mangle the fruit. It leaves very little waste at the end. I'll place the sliced fruit on a baking tray with a rack on it so the hot air can circulate to help dehydrate the fruit. The slicer is easy to clean up after. I'll carefully take the blade out and wipe and sanitize the machine before putting it away. As for the blade, I'll wash it with the sprayer attachment in the sink with soap and water then dry it with a towel before attaching it back to the machine. Overall it works really well for the amount of volume I use it for at the bar.
