Strengths: Fast slicing/shredding; easy clean-up; no worrying over accidentally slicing/cutting your hand as you would with a regular mandolin or manual slicer.
Weaknesses: A bit messy - splatters/flings; vegetables get caught between the slicing/shredding drum and the plastic housing; white plastic housing stains easily.
Summary: The slider/shredder works great with firm vegetables and fruits such as cucumbers, carrots, apples, etc. When I manually sliced vegetables/fruits with a knife or by using the mandolin/manual slicer, it would take quite a while as I didn't want to get cuts on my hands. This attachments cuts more than half the time! So far, I've gotten some even slices, but rather large "end" bits tend to get caught between the white plastic housing and the slicing/shredding drums. I would have preferred that the housing be made of stainless steel, rather than plastic as I am concerned that with time, it might crack or turn yellow/stain. Clean up is quite easy, but if you slice/shred carrots, you'll have to use a paper napkin/towel to wipe off the stains with a few drops of oil before washing it with soap or the stains won't come off.
