Default Oxo Mandoline?

Has anyone used the Oxo Mandoline? Do you know how it compares to the
Zyliss Safety Mandoline?

Thanks so much!

Shari,

In your price range...they're both about the same. I offer the following
advice: I have a cheap one, like as shown in the attached image. It has
the following problems you should avoid. First....since it doesn't have
legs (i.e. you have to hold it at whatever angle you want), and the
opportunity for injury is increased...in my humble opinion...since I have
indeed lost a finger tip (it grew back, though!). Also, you have to put in
different inserts to get different blade heights. Pain in the ass and a
pain to store. Therefore, get one with a self standing base....and one with
an adjustable blade. Good Luck
