In the market for a new slicer

[mattyoc20]

Looking for a new slicer and would like anyone’s opinion on it. Looking for one that doesn’t break the bank but does a good job. Mainly using it for bacon.

Something like the Chef’s Choice 615 is what a lot run with. They run 150ish.
When I upgraded I bought the LEM 10” professional style slicer. They cost money, but are a very nice investment.

You might want to consider a used one. It's not hard to find a nice commercial Hobart or Berkel for around $200. Check Craigslist or Marketplace, there is always something on there.

that's what I have. works good! they do go on sale...but I have been watching lately. I am fair sure my wife bought mine just shy of $99, but that may have been around christmas.

I just bought a KWS 10" 320watt slicer. This thing is a beast! I shaved a venison breasola 0.75mm first time using it. Perfect slices.

KWS has a good reputation for quality and longevity. Best advice I can give is to research what others are using, maybe even a YouTube video or two and based upon you counter space or storage area, go from there. And don't overlook the weight.
