Made in Taiwan Review: Tricky but works wonder once you get a hang of it. - I did my research on this product and noticed a small handful of very poor feedbacks on the slicer. But since the majority of the users seem to like it and I really need an alternative to my "rice flour-heavy" gluten free diet, I decided to give it a try. This is the cheapest version that is made in Taiwan instead of supposedly Japan. The first time I tried it, I thought I was doomed. No matter what I used, whether it is summer squash, daikon or turnip, they all got crushed and broken. It was a complete disaster! Then for some reasons, threads started to get churned out. I really don't know why it all of a sudden works. The next few times, same thing. I have to fight with it for at least 5 minutes and destroyed a squash before threads would come out. Honestly, I really don't mind because my dogs love squash and vegetables. As long as nice noodles come out that can substitute from times the rice vermicelli and "rice-a-roni" I use for pasta, I am satisfied. Finally, I think I figured out what the problem was - I did not check to make sure the arrow on the blade is pointing upward! After that, I think I can say that the gadget works like a charm and I am glad that I got a big discount by buying Taiwan! Review: This serves the purpose I wanted - The only thing I bought this is because it could make real thin strands like like 1mm on all sides. It works but it doesn't have suction cup stands like others so you gotta hold it well well while spinning. 4 stars for just that. I gave 3 starsbecause I probably received a returned product. The blades were dirty and greasy. They didn't even clean those to resell. I expect more 45 dollars ## Features - This turning slicer is used for making spiralling fine cut carrots, potato strings for salad, strings of green pepper, or beets. - Makes curly strands of cucumbers and more - Interchangeable blades to make different sizes and for different foods. - Made in Taiwan ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001BNQYEQ | | Additional Features | Interchangeable Blades | | Best Sellers Rank | #775,273 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #2,917 in Mandolines & Slicers | | Blade Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Rectangular | | Brand Name | Maryuko | | Color | Green | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (44) | | Item Weight | 1.54 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Maryuko | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Vegetable | | UPC | 802985169617 | ## Product Details - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Blade Shape:** Rectangular - **Brand:** Maryuko - **Color:** Green - **Item Weight:** 1.54 Pounds - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Operation Mode:** Manual - **Product Care Instructions:** Hand Wash Only - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Vegetable - **Special Feature:** Interchangeable Blades ## Images ![Japanese Turning Vegetable Slicer - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71mrj7kbM8L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tricky but works wonder once you get a hang of it. *by S***E on June 10, 2013* I did my research on this product and noticed a small handful of very poor feedbacks on the slicer.

Most recently, I used it to make crispy potato curls for a breakfast side dish (about 4 minutes from whole potato to golden brown curls). My favorite thus far is making zucchini or summer squash "spaghetti", so I can enjoy a whole variety of sauces on fresh vegetables, without any flour-based pasta at all. On a technical level, it took a little experimenting to figure out how to use it. The instructions are fine for changing the blades and showing different food you can slice (with and without the serrated blades), but they're pretty useless as operating instructions. The operation sounds complicated, but is actually very straight-forward -- once you've done it 2 or 3 times, it becomes second nature. So, here are the steps: 1. Insert the serrated blade of your choice (I like the coarsest one - slicing is fastest and the width of the resulting pieces is still very narrow) and screw in the the tightening screw 2. Put the turning slicer on a counter, with the moveable end closer to you and the blades at the further end 3. Notice the little "legs" at the end near you and pull the turning slicer toward you until the "legs" drop over the edge of the counter. This is the ONLY way to keep the slicer stable 4. Check to see that the vegetable will fit between the "pipe blade" (just what it sounds like and located at the blade end) and the rotator disk. Cut it to length if necessary. Also, if the ends are at a sharp angle, cut them so they're more or less flat 5. Push one end of your vegetable onto the pipe blade 6. With your left hand (if you're right-handed), push the base of the moveable piece away from you until the rotator disk is pushing slightly on the near end of the vegetable. With your right hand, take hold of the crank handle 7. Turn the crank clockwise with your right hand while keeping pressure on the vegetable by continuing to push the base of the moveable piece with your left hand. A word to the wise: Maintaining this slight pressure was the one thing I kept forgetting when I first used the turning slicer, and, since that's what keeps the vegetable in contact with the slicing blades, no slicing happens without that slight pressure! One small issue some have had with these horizontal slicers is that the pipe blade, while doing an excellent job of stablizing the vegetable, does extrude a small core of the vegetable out. It's less than 1/2" in diameter. For myself, I usually chop this leftover bit up and add it to what I'm making. It does, however, make this slicer less useful for small diameter vegetables. A smallish zucchini is about the lower limit. So, if you really only want it for small diameter veggies, you might do better with one of the vertical spiral slicers, even though you'll have a harder time keeping it from sliding around your counter. Finally, it's rare to find a kitchen gadget like the turning slicer that increases the fun, speed, AND aesthetics of food preparation. Just in case I wasn't clear on how much I love this device, I just bought one for my sister for Christmas! ## Frequently Bought Together - Maryuko TS01 Japanese Turning Vegetable Slicer - Benriner Japanese Vegetable Slicer - Microplane Cut-Resistant Glove One size fits all One piece 34027 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7009042-japanese-turning-vegetable-slicer](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7009042-japanese-turning-vegetable-slicer) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
