Food slicers come in different shapes and sizes. There are electric food slicers as well as manual food slicers. It might look like a knife with added features in it, or it might be big with a lot of slicing features. To help you sort through the features of various food slicers, here is a list on how to shop wisely when searching for one:

• Choose a stainless steel model. While plastic models may be inexpensive, stainless models are more sanitary. Also, metal models will last longer than plastic models and are easier to clean.

• Pick the right size. For example, if you like to slice whole roasts, choose a larger model. Choose the size of your slicer to accommodate the food you slice the most.

• Buy a model that is easy to clean. It is better to buy a model that you can take apart easily and can be placed in the dishwasher. If a model is hard to clean, it's not worth the money.

• A food slicer is a dangerous kitchen contraption, so it is better to look for models that have good safety features. For example, look for a model that has a dual-switch safety feature to prevent the slicer from accidentally turning on.

• If you want to make sure the food slicer that you have in mind is your best choice, read reviews to learn what other people think about that particular model. There are a lot of reviews about food slicers available in the internet, and reading them before you purchase can save you money as well as a big hassle.

A food slicer should not cost you an arm and a leg, so choose a slicer that is safe, easy to use, inexpensive and reliable.
