I just got a LEM brand for Xmas for under $100. Actually everyone had them on sale around here around Xmas time and lots of them were under $100.

what is a lem

rbranstner · Jan 12, 2010

Its just a brand name like Ford or Chevy.

I've got this one
http://www.amazon.com/Deni-14150-Ele...3308379&sr=8-4

some other members also purchased it at the same time I did.
I only have used mine to slice up pork loins that I've made Canadian bacon out of . I also sliced a bottom round roast after I smoked it . Someone had said it wouldn't do paper thin but I think the secret to that is to have the meat just about frozen . I have to baby mine a little bit ( as far as feeding the meat slowly ) but it still beats trying to slice up a pork loin into about 100 slices or whatever . I think my expectations of it were kind of high because I was thinking of a commercial slicer like at the deli counter but this one is definately not like a commercial one , but it serves me well for the little bit I use it.

I've been trying to find a good (non commercial) slicer for years without any luck. I would love to hear what everyone else is using with good results. My main use would be for slicing jerky.

I bought mine from salesstore.com, and I am very happy with it. I don't have to put meat in the freezer to slice it. I highly recommend it.

jon foster · Jan 19, 2010

I'd like to know too.

This is the one I have I got it at hsn.com but they don't show it anymore. When I got it it was 99 dollars with a regular blade and serated. I haven't used the serated blade yet but the slicer is very strong and no heat up or time outs.

I had another one (different brand) and returned it for lack of slicing consistency. This one works and is easy to clean.

I've heard that the Chef's Choice models in the $100 - $200 range are good units; I think that would be what I'd get when I get ready to purchase one.

Here's a few links to get started on searching for the best deals.

I just bought this same model off of Amazon(it's now $10 cheaper than 2 days ago. Story of my life.). I have not used it yet, but I chose it because it was the only <$100 slicer that they carried that wasn't rated at 3 stars or less, and this was 4 1/2(after hearing Ron's comment I feel better yet). I have had my fill of junky cheap slicers. The construction looks great, and I'll update in a couple of weeks when I'm slicing bacon.

ronp · Jan 19, 2010

If you have any problems I would buy the non serated blade. Otherwise let us know how the serated blade works.

b8h8r · Jan 19, 2010

Thanks....and by the by, Amazon does not budge on price difference.

Good choice, you will be happy with it.

Salesstore.com only has this one slicer. More powerful than any other in it's price range.
