Food slicer for home use
Can anyone recommend me a food slicer for home use please. Pretty much just for sandwich meats.
Thx

I mean where are you getting it whole that you need a deli slicer?
The only deli meats I try to get are things like salami style meats, proscuitto and pancetta. I won't touch that deli style roast beef, chicken or turkey breast. You're better off just getting one, poaching it and slicing it with a knife, cheaper and more meat too.

I purchased one similar to those "home pro" types. They are better than the all plastic type, but still have a lot of plastic, including the gears. Broke the gear after about 2 weeks of periodic use. Motor will whine, but blade doesn't turn.
I ended up buying a used "pro" off of Craigslist for $250. Even has sharpening stones to hone the blade during use. It's a Berkel 808 but warning ya, you gotta have the space for it, it's huge and heavy (all metal).
