Zassenhaus KP0000072068 Classic Bread Cutter, 18/8 Stainless Steel

This now has pride of place on my kitchen island, opposite the bread bin.Look, it's not cheap. But I'm assuming that blade is of such quality it will last forever. It works perfectly. So far, we have just used it for various slice widths with different bread types. It can also do really thing slices that don't fall apart. Its just the right size - not too big and bulky, but can clearly do the job. I wish the suckers were a bit better and could stick on the wooden surface more easily. But that's not the end of the world! Highly recommended.

This is a relatively small, simple and robust device with a very sharp, undulating edged circular Solingen steel blade. It cuts crusty home made bread, including sourdough, very well. It also sticks like a limpet to my polished granite work surfaces. I do have a couple of reservations, though.I expected the wooden handle to rotate freely on its spindle, but it sticks and there's no adjustable screw to loosen it. The handle also crushes the slice as it comes off the blade, unless one is careful. To address this I've adopted a simple modification with a 6" steel ruler and some magnets - see the attached photos. It's not elegant, but it's cheap and it does the job.

It’s quite large to accommodate but it certainly cuts a lovely even slice of bread over and over again. It’s much more reliable than a bread knife for the size of the slice.

This is a brilliant gizmo. Had it now for 3 years. Bought it purely for slicing bread as I have a wrist problem. Had tried an electric knife, but the vibrations aggravated my wrist.This slices beautifully. Thickness adjustment is very easy. It's easy to clean - I just use a pastry brush to brush away crumbs. The only adjustment I've needed is a clamp to hold it still - the suction pads don't hold it still. But this is minor and with a (woodworking) spring hand clamp, it's held firm and works quickly and easily.Another point is that it's rather better at slicing flatter loaves, rather than tall tin loaves - tho it still manages that fine.I wouldn't be without it.

This is a great bread slicer, which I use for my homemade bread.I bought it with a little trepidation, as several previous reviews had commented on the fact that it did notstick to the worktop very well.I have not found this to be the case, it sticks very securely to my worktop, and does not move when slicing.It is a simple design and well made, cutting freshly made bread with ease.I like the fact that it is easily adjustable, so you can have the bread as thin or thick as you like.This has replaced my previous slicer, which was made from plastic, I am hoping it will give me many years service.A little expensive, but so far it has been worth the money.

It slices very well, but it moves around so much that it is essentially unusable. The only surface it sticks to is the glass hob. For an expensive item, the suction cups are pathetic. And I cut myself - the slicing wheel is unguarded. Going back, sadly.

This is a fantastic piece of kit! Really love using this to slice homemade sourdough bread! It does cut day old bread better than fresh I think, but use it to cut fresh anyway! Wish I bought it sooner! Really easy to clean and easy to use

The media could not be loaded. If you have ever made or bought sourdough or crusty bread you will all have had the struggle trying to saw through the crusty bottom. I had been looking at this slicer for months and trying to justify the cost but after having a debate with myself about self worth and why not I pressed that order button. It has been an absolute revelation, I can honestly say it has been one of the best kitchen items I have ever bought.It slices easily and cleanly through the crustiest of breads, no ragged edges or pulled crumb.A couple of tips I have learnt, wipe the suckers with a damp cloth before you stick it to your work surface, really helps with stopping it sliding or moving when slicing and turn the handle quite quickly when slicing, helps with stopping the slice of bread getting stuck under the handle.This also slices cooked hams, perfect for sandwiches etc.If you have been looking at this and thinking it’s quite expensive believe me it’s worth every single penny!
