Two blades to choose the cut

Includes interchangeable stainless steel blades of 10 mm and 13 mm:

  • Thin cut (10 mm): ideal for air fryer or fast food style
  • Thick cut (13 mm): perfect for “pub” style potatoes, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside

“The small size is perfect for air fryer, the other ideal for vegetables like zucchini”. Says a customer.

It also features an ergonomic lever that keeps hands away from the blades, reducing the risk of cuts, and its suction cup base firmly attaches to the countertop, preventing movement or slipping while you use it.
