Not for everything - DONT BUY IT, BROKE AFTER A WEEK
I bought this slicer hoping that I can use it for more than just bread and cheese.
Overall it is not bad, but starts sliding on the counter if you cut something dense such as hard cheese where you have to push harder. The machine is simply not heavy enough to give it necessary stability.
Also the motor starts smelling and "whining" if you cut dense items for several minutes.
Forget cutting vegetables (peppers, tomatoes, etc.) the food pusher just does not grab the item well enough and they slide off the platform, rotating on the blade. Kind of looks funny, but in reality it is annoying. It might work if you use your hand instead of the food pusher, but I'd rather not try it.
A plus is the aluminum casing and the design that is easy to clean. Otherwise, if you really want to use a slicer daily for all kind of items, you'd be better off to buy a refurbished commercial one.
I have to amend my comment - just one week after it's arrival...
Don't waste your money
I have used this twice, once for boneless ham, once for cheese. It's dead, the blade still turns but it makes a clunking sound and bogs down to a stop when you slice anything now. it's going back. What a disappointment.
Junk At Any Price
I tried it the first day on some canned ham. Couldn't get 2 slices the same. I went the next day and bought some salamie and the same thing, pure junk.
Sent it back and bought a Chef's Choice 610 for twice the money and is everything I wanted.I have reviewed the Chef's choice here so take a look if you want.
