can this be used as a holder for grating vegetables?

Yes, but it is best for slicing vegetables. It saved my fingers.

Will this work with both Mandolins thats 5.7 wide and thats 5 wide?

Since it's basically a holder for the item you're slicing, I think it would work with most mandolins. The safety holder is 6" wide, so according to your width measurement it would fit your mandolin.

how is this holder different than another holder, same company, that is sold in orange and white and is sold by Amazon for $9.99?

The color. This one is white. The other one is orange. They serve the same purpose.

How well does it handle carrots?

I use the peeled baby carrots and can slice them fine. I haven't tried shredding them

El material se siente un poco endeble pero cumple bien con su función.

I have had a Borner mandolin for over 55 years. One of the best products ever made. Bought one for my son for Christmas and he is really happy with the way it shreds, makes fries and slices.

Bought this safety holder for my Börner wavy slicer! Works great! The zigzag on top and bottom is to remove a small piece of vegetable from the blade; in most food holders, it does not exist! Easy to use and easy to clean! About durability, only time can tell. So far, works great!

I'm giving this one star rating because how this thing is marked up. I paid nearly $25 for this and its not even well made. Similar items can be found on other websites at fraction of the price.

I'm so glad I bought this! The one that came with my mandoline disappeared (???) I feel much safer now.
