My brother needs a mandoline. What I would be looking at would be beyond what would be worthwhile for him on price. Our needs our different. He would be using it for home use potato chips and such for the family.
The "Wolfgang Puck Stainless Steel Multiple-Blade Mandoline Slicer Item: 474-419" from HSN has been mentioned. "What do I think?" I have concerns about quality with both HSN and Puck.
Also, safety is the first concern with a mandoline.
For a low cost, but adequate and safe choice - I wonder if the "Oxo V-Blade Mandoline Slicer (16-in.) Item #660137 cooking.com" might be a better choice. For value I have found Oxo to be 'best choice' several times. Oxo does have another, more expensive, 16" mandoline, plus a higher-end mandoline as well.
Recommendations for modest cost, effective, safe mandoline for small family use? My knowledge is limited to the higher end options and not useful to his needs.
