yes it could be used that way dr you can use the square cutter blades to make square fries you just have to slice your vegies the size you would like to use it is also great for making homemade potatoe salad you can dice up your eggs pickles onions and all the other things used in your salad as you know everybody has their own twist on what is added to potatoe salad but dicing your onions and sweating them on medium heat will make your potatoe salad last longer without the onions overpowering the whole dish those onions tend to take over with age if not sweating them down to pretty tender texture but like i say yes this is a very good asset for you kitchen utensils. hope you enjoy it we sure do enjoy ours vegetable sour is a cooks best help the norco big mouth slicer, chopper have a great day

I bought this slicer for my mom. She said it's pretty thin. Maybe 1/4 inch is the thinkest and a little thicker than paper thin is the thinnest. I hope this helps.

If you are thinking of most potato chips, then no, the 2mm blade does not cut the potato into thin enough slices. But the slices are thinner than the regular blade that comes with the unit, and I have this 2mm blade and use it a lot. I like it for many uses... thin celery slices, carrots, zucchini, potatoes.... etc.

No. Too flimsy.Does not do potatoes that are big. May be good for golds and smaller but not good for doing potatoes for french fries. Buy the steel one!! This is plastic!

I love this machine if you want fries without the guilt then this is the gadget.l like my fries well done my family lightly fried I can achieve this by removing there's a little earlier and browning mine for a few minutes longer I get what I like they get whatthey like. The most I have air fried is 5 large russet potatoes no problems

I assume you mean waffle fries, no, this is a French fry cutter, you need a mandolin for that

No, but you can make very thin slices, stack them, and then juilienne them with a knife.

For regular slicing, there are 2 settings (thin and thick). The thin setting is very thin, about the thickness of a potato chip. The thick setting is about 3-4 times as thick, but not as thick as 1/2" inch. I'd say the thick setting is 1/8", possibly less. I hope this helps!

hello, i haven't tried making thin and crisp potato slices. in fact the slicer is in the cabinet w/other things I don't use anymore....I don't fry any foods so I wouldn't even do that but I have tried slicing potato's for baked fries and it dosent work that great. You have to take the skin off then slice. Slicer won't work well w/skins on. good luck

my slicer did not work. it was not adjustable and only had one blade that was too thin for doing a cabbage slice or potatoesno i would not buy it.

No. It's very light in flavor. It does not over power the food which is why I use it whenever I crave fried foods.

Yes this does also cut thin slices. I do recommend purchasing some protective gloves as well because it is very sharp too!

No, French Fries only. You can get a slicer attachment for your Kitchen Aid if you have one. Mine does a great job!

I have not done fries, but I just looked on the box and it shows fairly skinny fries. I love making sweet potato chips though! I love the mandoline. I don't use it often enough to be really familiar with it, but I do really like it for what I do.

I don't know what "Japanese restaurant thinly sliced cabbage is", but as it says, it slices "4 different cut thicknesses: 0.5 mm, 1.3 mm, 2.0 mm and 3.0 mm". The 0.5 mm slices a potato thin enough to read through, and you have approx 2X, 4X and 6X thicknesses for there. It slices a good coleslaw. If you have a Prime account, order it and return it free if it isn't what you want.

The 2mm will slice them twice as thin as the 4mm (the one that comes w/Cuisinart) but I thought I read somewhere that it wasn't quite thin enough and the person was disappointed for making chips. It would definitely work though, just that the potato chips would be a little thicker, depends on your personal preference. The 2mm is wonderful for scalloped potatoes.
