I use it for shabushabu. Much better than I thought. Worth more than I paid.PROS:*It can slice through everything. I prefer using it on completely frozen meat, and it’s great. Instead of paying $40+ per person to get shabushabu at a restaurant, I can just slice the meat myself at home. Basically, this is a small table saw for meat.*It can slice very thin. Some people have commented that it can’t slice super thin, but unless your definition of super thin is “paper thin,” then you’re going to be satisfied. It can cut shabushabu thinner than the restaurants will do for you, so that’s good enough for me.*It feels safe. Despite wielding a rapidly spinning razor sharp blade, as long as you’re using it the way it’s intended (there’s a hand guard you’re supposed to use to move the meat) it feels safe. If you’re holding the meat with your bare hands and not paying attention, then this machine won’t be very safe because of course it’s a moving blade. Just use it…
Nerd’s eye view Construction:In a word – excellent. The thickness adjustment plate is made of aluminum and the guide rods appear to be stainless steel. The shell that holds the drive train is also cast aluminum. The food carriage is ABS plastic with a stainless steel top. The glide rails are made of a low friction plastic. The blade is stainless steel and very sharp. Operation is smooth and the fit and finish leave nothing to be desired.I included some pictures of the drive train up top under customer images. The motor is a husky high RPM DC type with a metal worm gear that drives a plastic copolymer spur gear that finally drives a large ring gear attached to the blade. Lubrication on the worm gear in my unit was a bit light so I applied some old teletype grease I’ve been using for years – and years – and more years. The back plate is an aluminum casting that holds all the parts securely. Wire routing is superb. The drive train cover holds a cowl that fits over the…
Chef’s Choice 609 Premium Electric Food… I was a little worried about buying this slicer because you just never know how well things are going to work. But, we had 27 beef briskets to slice for a fund raiser and we really needed a good slicer at an affordable price so I took a chance. Shipping was really fast and it was well packaged. Setting it up was easy and setting the thickness of the slices was easy too. It worked wonderfully cutting up that many briskets but I was a little disappointed in the fact that we couldn’t get a large pan under it to collect a larger quantity of meat at once. Otherwise, it worked really well giving uniform slices, clean up was easy, moving parts worked as they should so that I wasn’t getting tendonitis moving it back and forth. We will be using it from now on for any of our slicing needs.
