I've got the wire one. It *is* pricey- and just *looks* like it
won't work as well as the 'T' shaped wire slicers.

But it does. It works a whole lot better. It takes less effort, and
the ergonometrics are better [though I was sure they would be worse]
It slices 2 thicknesses without fiddling with 'adjustments' - and it
takes up less room in the drawer. [no place to hang mine]

It slices soft mozzarella or hard asiago with ease.

I managed to break a wire on mine somehow- and got to go back to the
other kind while I waited for a wire from Amazon. [the kitchen shop is
out of the way]. I went right back to the Rosle.
