Black Meat Slicer

Works very well. I bought this slicer because it's much cheaper to buy cold cuts, cheeses, and hot pot or Korean BBQ meats in bulk and slice at home. For the same or lower price per pound, we get a much higher quality, made with better ingredients and better flavor, plus I get to decide the thickness of the slices. The slicer is capable of slicing a 6 pound ham, a 2 pound block of cheese, and 2 loaves of sourdough bread in under 15 minutes. Our family's daily breakfast sandwiches just got a huge upgrade. I did hear the gears skipping the first time I tried to slice cheese, but I figured out not to push so hard on it so it doesn't bind up the blade. After all, it's a home slicer not a $1500 professional slicer.

Easy to use, easy to clean. It sliced meat effortlessly. I would recommend it to anyone needing a slicer for household use at a reasonable price.

I received this as a gift, I requested, to slice meat for making beef jerky. I had purchased a beef jerky slicer, but it sliced the meat too thick and wasn’t adjustable. Using this I was able to get consistent thickness and the ability to adjust to any thickness I wanted, which is what I wanted to be able to do. I first sliced a top round that was in the freezer for 20 minutes or so. The meet squished as it went through the slicer – the cutting wheel pressed downward on the meat. The second top round I sliced was in the freezer for days. I took it out and put it in the fridge for 1 day – it was still frozen when I took it out. I was able to cut the semi-frozen top round perfectly. The slicer cut through the meet easily and I ended up with perfectly cut strips for making beef jerky. The slicer is easier to clean than my beef jerky slicer – very simple and quick. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on a slicer and this one was priced in the range I felt was reasonable for what I wanted. It saves me time in cutting the meat and cleanup is quick also. Great little meat slicer. Performs as expected.

Very easy setup, lightweight and works very well

Nice machine. Slices slightly frozen steak for jerky very well. Easy to clean!

This is our first review of the Cusimax Food Slicer, and we will post a longer-term review if anything should change. For now, however, we are extremely pleased with it. It's easy to set-up, easy to use, slices accurately and quickly through beef and pork roasts. Soon we will be slicing our home-made breads, but if the meat slicing is any indication, we don't anticipate any problems with those either. This slicer combines the best size for storage in a modest kitchen, with the ease-of-use, and convenience of a quality product. The next step up, would cost $300 and be much more bulky. While a commercial-type unit would undoubtedly last longer, using it would be inconvenient and difficult due to the much larger "footprint." This slicer is plenty fast for home use, and runs long enough for two roasts. While the manufacturer states that it should be used no longer than 10 minutes, before resting for 30 minutes, we find we can get all we need sliced for a large meal, in less than 5 minutes. The motor was barely warm, and the blade only slowed down a very small amount while slicing. We feel, with some care in use and cleaning, this will last a long time. We have owned an older Krupps machine, which was very slow and never produced clean slices. If you don't need a commercial unit for your home, we can recommend this with absolute certainty you will be as pleased as we are.

Took out of the box and cut up a whole ham. Of course had to quarter it first, as the machine isn't that big. However, ham was thawed and as long as you take your time, the slicer does a Marvelous job of cutting nice even slices. Clean was a breeze and took a little time. Only minor issues, is where the meat is held on the slider, it is kind of small, so couldn't use the clear plastic piece to put pressure on the meat as it was sliced, but did us my hand until I could put the plastic piece back on. It is noisy, but the trade off is worth the price. Been using for the past 2 months. Works very well on meats. First time used on cheese. I had a block that was little larger than normal. The machine made a grinding noise, from the plastic sprocket behind the blade. I had to cut the block down the middle to make it smaller. It took a little longer to cut, however, it did cut pretty good. Nice even thin slices. I checked the sprocket after I was cleaning the blade and it appeared not to be damaged. I am still happy with the slicer, it takes a little longer, but as one person pointed out, this isn't a Hobart Commercial slicer!!!

After trying others for slicing bread I use this one the most. I do not use this for meat but suspect it would be great. Used for bread only and it is pretty consistent. The serrated blade is very sharp. It is easy to clean once you figure out how to remove the slide arm and blade. It’s been very durable and came assembled as I recall. It does move around a little thus a 4 instead of 5. I just push down in it between loaves. Use on non-porous surface. Might do better in wooden surface. The base where I set the bread to start could be deeper as I have to hold it until half sliced before using the guide piece. But it does the job. The price was doable.

For us, this works perfect. It is not a commercial unit, and doesn't claim to be. The suction feet stick to our quartz counter top rediculously well.

Buen producto, tamaño adecuado, casero. Corta muy bien y a diferente medidas. Hasta el momento lo he usado con barras de pan y carne y corta perfecto.

El producto realiza las funciones para lo que fue comprado y realmente me asombro gratamente ver como rebana bien. Unico lado no tan positivo es que la consistencia en los niveles bajos no es tan correcta debido al poco grosor de la parte inicial del corte.

Does a great job cutting. My only disappointment is the bar that allows the food pusher to slide back and forth is not easy to remove for cleaning.

Easy to use and clean. Great for slicing all.
