Paderno World Cuisine Vegetable Slicer
The Paderno World Cuisine vegetable slicer creates spiral cuts and vegetable or fruit noodles in seconds. The frame and blade plates are constructed of very high-quality, impact-resistant ABS plastic that is BPA-free, and the blades are made of stainless steel. It has four powerful suction feet that are fitted with tabs for easy release, and does not require an outlet connection or batteries.
The slicer is an easy-to-use, handy tool that makes zucchini spaghetti, cucumber ribbon strands, curly fries or long, spiral apple strands. It comes with three blades: a shredder blade (small holes), a chipper blade (large holes) and a straight blade. A storage compartment beneath the frame stores two blades and the third blade comes already in place.
Key Features: Three stainless steel blades: Shredder: creates long, spaghetti-like spiral strands Chipper: creates long, thick spiral strands Straight: creates long, ribbon-like strands Use with a variety of fruits and vegetables including apples, potatoes, carrots, cucumber, zucchini and more Impact-resistant, BPA-free ABS plastic frame and blade plate construction Integrated storage compartment holds extra blades Powerful suction feet for stability with easy release tabs Hand operated–no batteries or AC outlet necessary Three Blades for Versatility
The shredder blade measures 1/8″, or 3mm, in thickness and produces long spaghetti-like spiral strands. The chipper blade measures 1/4″, or 5mm, in thickness and produces long, thick spiral strands. The flat blade measures 1/8″, or 3mm, and produces long ribbon-like strands.
Simple to Use
The slicer is very simple to use. Secure the slicer to a smooth working surface by pressing down on each corner. (Note: the rotating crank should face your left or right side.) Attach one side of the vegetable or fruit to the small circular corer on the blade plate and gently press the prongs onto the opposite end. Use one hand to push the lever handle along while simultaneously turning the crank handle with the other hand.
Your vegetable or fruit can measure up to 10″ long and 7″ thick, and must be at least 1/2″ thick in diameter. Suggestions of vegetables and fruits to use are zucchini, carrots, cucumbers, sweet potatoes and apples. You can make long ribbons of cucumber and radishes for salads, apple spirals for apple slaw, sweet potatoes for curly sweet potato fries or use the straight blade for sweet potato chips!
This spiral slicer can be easily disassembled and washed under warm water with mild detergent or placed on the upper rack of a dishwasher. The blades should be removed and washed similarly. Be cautious when washing the blades, as they are very sharp and should not be touched directly. Note that the two blades can be stored in the storage compartment and the third blade can remain in place.
Secure slicer to counter by pressing on suction feet. Insert your blade of choice. Push or pull the food holder to accommodate your chosen fruit or vegetable. Secure your food on the circular corer and gently press into prongs on the opposite end. Additional tips: Select vegetables that are at least 1/2″ in diameter Make sure the feet are suctioned firmly by ensuring the table or counter surface is dry Select vegetables that are relatively straight. Make sure that you trim enough off the ends of the vegetable or fruit to secure a firm hold onto the prongs Remove the stored blades while in use, as remnants and juices from the sliced food will dirty them Have a chopstick or any other long, narrow tool by your side to remove any remaining vegetable or fruit matter that gets stuck in the core of the cutting blade The machine measures L 12″ X W 6″ X H 8 3/4″

if you’re trying to avoid pasta but love that noodle-y experience… EDITED 2014 – This is a review of the original 3 blade version of this slicer which I far prefer to the newer four blade model. If you are deciding between the two I think there is no comparison. While the newer version looks slicker and is more self contained, it just doesn’t handle the veggies near as well as this one does. I’ve reviewed the other machine if you want to have a look and see my issues with it. But this 3 blade version is phenomenal and a staple in my kitchen. Easily one of the best gadgets ever made in my opinion. Read on…..–I had to interrupt my cooking to write this review. Believe me, I am not easily moved to write product reviews. This would be my second here on amazon (since the writing of this review three years ago I have added many more product reviews here on amazon).But, this little turning slicer is amazing. Simply amazing. It makes quick work of everything I throw at it and to date that would include:…
I bought it to make curly fries! I wanted to make my own curly fries. This vegetable slicer does that! I used the 1/4″ blade and found that you must use the pressure handle on the unit to produce the best cuts. You do end up with a vegetable core which some people have complained on other reviews that it ends up being waste, but that really was not a big deal to me. I tried cutting up and frying the cores, but I didn’t like them so now I just throw the cores away. It’s very little waste anyway. I did find that smaller potatoes produced tighter spirals, but the smaller size also produced a lot “waste” where there were just short curved shaves of potato. Larger potatoes produced fewer of the tight spirals and much more of the swooping long spirals, but they also produced less “waste”. Using a combination of large and small potatoes produced a good mix of curly fries for me. I fried them in the deep fryer, shook some sea salt on them, and they were YUMMY!Based on some other reviews, I tried making…
