I've had my V-Slicer since the 90s, and it's still as (dangerously!) sharp as when I took it out of the box. I've never come across one better. Germany makes the best products!
My First Börner V slicer Mandoline, I bought around 1973-5 in Frankfurt. Still good and sharp but I also finally bought the new version of thıs German Börner Mandoline. Börner mandoline makes my life easy and fun in the kitchen. Must have gadget is this Börner Swissmar Mandoline V slicer at every Home.
I swear by this mandolin. I bought mine at Dufferin Mall in Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 back in the late 80's til now. I love it. Now after seeing this I have to find where to buy another one. I thought they might have discontinued this model so glad they haven't. Great equipment to have in your kitchen.
This is the best video I've run across so far for the basics of using the Boerner mandolines! And all of these tips and cutting techniques work whether you're using the V-1001 Plus or the V-5 Powerline model (also sold as V7000 Power).
About 20 years ago I bought this Bonner Mandoline from Germany, and stored in a cupboard and forget about. Yesterday, I was wondering about this Mandoline whereabouts. Now I found it. It's still absolutely brand new. Only little discoloration on plastic base. No problem. Start Using.
I found one at the thrift store for $2.99 shopping with my aunt and she insisted I must buy it. I had no idea how it was used, so this is so helpful! Im excited to Rey ir.
I got my first Borner "V" Slicer in 1973 after seeing a live demonstration at "South Coast Plaza Shopping Center". I still have and use it ... 45 years of use... only problem I've ever had was putting it in dishwasher... The dry cycle warped some of the plastic housing... but it still works!
I rarely add comments, however this product is so good I could not resist. The design is breathtakingly complete, from the drip dry holder, to the stay sharp blades. I keep this on my counter, and unlike other slicers I've had, I actually use this all the time. The grub holder secures the food better than other flimsy models I've used, and I have not knicked myself once in all the months of slicing and dicing.
@@Mrmsrinivasgoud Google it. I bought an original in the 80's, subsequent used ones off ebay and a bran new one direct from Börner in Germany from their online shop. It's one of my favourite bits of equipment I couldn't do without.
Seems that Americas Test Kitchen thinks so too. I have had mine since 1986, can’t complain over that quality. I sometimes would have liked tvinner pins in the safety holder, that is my only negative. 😊
I have been using the Borner V6 for about a year or more. It's the best and easiest Mandoline I have ever used. It is truly and everyday use item, as clean up is very easy. One of the best buys I have ever made. By the way, it's made in Germany.
Why am I still awake, and why is this so satisfying to watch? 😂 The wholesome German synth accompaniments are healing my tormented boreal soul. I just glanced in the mirror and I have a Nietzsche mustache and nodded like, "Everything is going to be OK." Then an eagle shrieked and landed on my shoulder as the Sun broke the horizon and I heard my legions assemble in formation.
Can you believe that V3 costs EXACTLY the same today as it did when I bought mine in 1986? 32 1/2 years later! I paid Norwegian kroner 298,- in August of 1986... It was a lot of money for me back then, but that demonstration... Had to have it... 🤣👏👍 Fab that it is so easy to get parts for it today too, at really reasonable prices… 👍❣️
Nancy Marrone One came free with the "as seen on TV" Veggetti which spirals vegetables. I liked it but it was a bit clumsy so I purchased a generic stand alone at KMART.
I saw a chicken chow mein recipe that I want to make... it calls for matchstick carrots, celery ( not the celery into matchsticks...just chopped in an angle) mushrooms but I'll omit the mushrooms... bean sprouts and chinese fresh noodles and of course chicken...along with chopped garlic, ginger, and scallions and a sauce with rice wine, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken broth, a pinch of cornstarch, a smidge of white pepper...I still have to get some of the ingredients...I will make it as soon as I get the all of the ingredients and without the mandoline for now...I just have to chop by hand... when I do attempt to make it, I'll let you know how I make out chopping by hand ...wish me luck :)
I had mine for over 20yrs until the plunger cracked & broke off..... my friend bought me a cheaper version (with a much smaller safety holder) I almost sliced my little finger off, Im now off to purchase another one of these magnificent slicers.
you can buy the spares either online or used on ebay and the like. I'm always on the lookout for them in thrift shops and ebay and have a good collection of spares now and mine should last until I die.
I thought stainless steel cutting decks were the best thing. I never knew how aggressively foods like potatoes and tomatoes hung on the deck by suction. The ribbed high grade ABS almost repels wet slices like a dream.
Just bought this and already shredded lettuce and sliced onions, tomatoes and zucchini. Now I'm finding this 19 min video on how to use it very interesting.
try home made coleslaw. Basically, cabbage (either red or white) as much onion as you like, carrot, perhaps some apple to make it sweeter. Half and half mayo and salad cream (or mayo and plain yogurt). Make a large bowl full, then divide into smaller bowls. To one add pineapple chunks, to another juicy sultanas and curry powder, grated cheese to another portion. Let your imagination go wild and impress your friends and family with your very cheaply made but totally high quality, unique hand made coleslaw.
Excellent demonstration that covers all cutting styles. Why would anyone ever use a knife to cut vegetables when this is out in the market is beyond me
I have this v slicer in stock Sale in India only. Stainless Steel Blades last longer, very sharp. Im using mine from 16yrs. Till today blades are very sharp.
I got mine at a thrift store for free. I had it years ago, lent it out and never got it back. Then found one. Love it, now I'm learning new things about it.
I got mine in the 80’s. A while ago I wondered if it shouldn’t be upgraded to a fancy one with a box, legs etc, so I went on YT to see a regent test by America’s Test Kitchen. Couldn’t believe my eyes, the winner looked exactly like this one. A week or so ago, I was ordering Universal-Stein (a fab natural cleaner I used for almost 20 yrs) and found that the co also sells this.Since mine didn’t come with a box, I was so happy to see that they sold bores for less than 5 bucks (US)... Now it is even neatly stored, added an elastic, so it can lie flat too. 👏👍😊
Just to be sure this is the right slicer for me, does the V-power, V-7000 White come with the safety slicer WITH plunger? I like this feature but also like the mandolin's storage unit. And one more, will this unit fit the Borner's oval slicing bowl? Sorry guess I am trying to get all my "wants" in one unit and don't mind the cost to get what I want! TIA
The Börner V5 slicer seems to be a much safer, long-lasting (many customers on amazon claim to be using it since 20 years and more) and efficient slicer than their large US competitor from Pay-TV (I am sure You know it).
+Sanjay Germany Very true. I've been using the same one since 1987! I JUST NOW bought a new one because the blade on the old one was getting a bit dull, not unusable, but not as good as the new one.
+ismat hassan I suppose you will have to order from abroad and get it sent, if there is no shop that sells them where you are, then this is the only way.
Great instructional video. I could not get the hang of using the teeth blade and do the "turn 90 degrees" movement to chop an onion so I was hoping to get some info here but it turns out I don't even need to do that, I can just slice the onion a few times before using the teeth blade to chop an onion. Kudos. On the other hand, the music is absolutely annoying, what's with the high tempo muzak? We're not doing battles with the vegetables! Please, please, remove the music track, and if you must use music, some soothing background music would be much better.
I was really disappointed , I ordered a mandolin and all I got was this finger remover. Imagine my surprise as I was at the dance hall awaiting my mandolin to be delivered. The rest of the band were upset with me as the show was about to start ....the fiddle player and the banjo player were tuning up , the guitar player was staring me down. Time was ticking, the audience was getting nervous as they awaited the music to begin. Finally the Amazon truck pulled up. I stood at the back door near the stage..when the delivery man grabbed the box out of the back of the truck the rest of the band started strumming and adjusting ....in comes delivery man ( I thought the box looked too small to be my mandolin......I was amazed to find an actual food slicer 'mandolin' and not my musical stringed instrument.....Im no longer a professional musician........but my God is this thing sharp. 'F' sharp ! Get it?

I bought my borner over 30 years ago. Best kitchen slicer. Best money spent. Love it
I am using this product since 1998. My mom bought it..and blades are still very sharp. Excellent masterpiece
Ive had mine 20 years. Put it away 15 years ago, and just rediscovered it. Excellent product. High quakity, very well designed!!
The music alone makes this video worth watching a second time. I love it!

Bet he's up to his knees in veg, the way he's slinging the remnant leftovers on to the floor, and the bits shooting off the mandolin. Crunch time.

Till today blades are very sharp.
Can replacement blades be purchased for this original version of the V slicer?
Its the best everyone should have one
great and useful video .. thank you for sharing
14:36 Onion dice and 17:46 coarse onion
OMG 😲 I almost threw this wonderful gadget away, because the safety holder was missing !
Could you make crisscut potatoes with this??
I wish the video had shown how to clean the blades. Making them dishwasher safe would be a huge Improvement.
Can it be used to make zoodles?
love love this video
This music is dope
want to purchase this, tell me about its availability in india
I have had one for years. I loved it . But just recently the plastic v holder just broke. I'm so sad I need a new one saving up money for it

Does someone know what is that white vegetable at 12:35?
Julien Gatien parsnips it's more like a root vegetable than a carrot.
Thank you.
how can i buy this iam from lahore pakistan
This is intense!
Why doesn't Swissmar import the Börner Rösti grater? I had to work a deal with someone in the UK to get a new Rösti grater into the US. Dumb.
11:35 the music gets real here
I notice the slicer is always held almost vertical, like at a 60-degree angle.
Probably for purposes of the video, I would think.
Amazing.
How did I get here ?
blade lasts longer or can be sharpened?
I had my first one for almost 20 years without sharpening
Thanks!
This is oddly satisfying...
Can it slice meat?
yes, it can be frozen half way and sliceable
the blade will probably need more frequent sharpening in that case
I took a nice slice out of my hand with it so I would say yes, yes it does.
Gina Sellers Oh god the way you said that made me laugh! 🤣 Sorry if you really hurt your hand but the *tone and phrasing*!! 😂👏
does it contain guide book or something for all this infos or I have to get back to this video ??
you can download the instructions
why are thy using the Rocky 4 montage music
I will buy one of the V-Slicers. But about the Video, what he calls "Celery Root" is actually a Kohlrabi.
probably celeriac
@@seanfitzz Not in this case. Celery root and Kohlrabi are two completely different vegetables.
