Meat slicer recommendations

[ifitsdeadsmokeit]

Very nice. I just checked my front step, but there was nothing there. End up with the 10" Vevor? Can you fit a 12" wide piece of belly on it? I am going to buy a slicer in near future, but Hawaii trip, multiple insurance bills, changing jobs and golf trip are all within a couple of months of each other so feeling very broke right now. I was eyeing a 12" globe but not sure I want to spend that much with as little as it gets used. Probably end up with something used or a vevor.

Lol! All I did so far was to plug it in and make sure it works. As to pork belly if I measured right the widest it'll take is 7 inches. Can't wait to use it. Might be a little while since my next project (tomorrow) is andoullie.Sorry about the front step -- mabey the Amazon pirates?

Attention enablers:
I'm thinking about getting a meat slicer.
What are your recommendations?
*I'd be using this primarily for slicing homemade deli meats.

-A smaller unit would be best, since counter top space is precious and scarce.

-I'm open to electric or manual slicers. (those manual ones look like paper cutters. can't image they work well, but I'm open to a sales pitch)

-buget options are better. But if I'm buying, I dont want a pos.

-The Chefs choice 615 seems to have been discontinued?

-This one seems ok:

-then there is Vevor. In my experience, their stuff is reliably good-enough.

I bought the LEM Mighty bite slicer over 5 years ago. I can't remember what I paid. it has worked flawlessly in it's life (edit) my only regret with the 8.5" is that the"sweep" is short, meaning I can't cut a full smoked pork belly without halving it. . link following is all I could find on the 1240model. FWIW I have never used the serated blade. https://lemproducts.com/mightybite-..._o_co8h2edIZMZLMGMA1rgqh1kZF5il4-QX16OSfpj2mb

Mine is a vintage Oyster meat slicer. It from either the late 60 or early 70s. It doesn't get used but 5 or 6 times a year and I wouldn't recommend it for Heavey use but it does the job, and I can break it down and store it in a cubboard. This ones not mine, but mine looks exactly like it.
