Can you adjust so that it does not slice?

Yes. You can remove the piece that slices and cores. Then you would only peel the apple. You cannot core without slicing too.

Do you mean, just peel? Yes. There is a spring loaded arm that can be adjusted out of the way.

Yes, you can peal the apples without slicing them but it won't core them without slicing them. It works great! I highly recommend one.

I am sorry I can not help you . I do not know the answer I am using the blade the slicer came with as I am afraid to change the blade.... It is very sharp.... good luck

Comment: I would have purchased this if the slice thickness was adjustable.

Yes, as long as it wasn't one that puffed up well over the top of the container. But if that is the case, just cut a few slices off the bottom and slide it down.

Everything is preset. Nothing is adjustable. Turn it on and drag the knife thru the slots.

The slicing guide only indicates "thick" on one side and "thin" on the other. It is not variably adjustable.

You don't. This is a really annoying aspect of this slicer. If you look at the picture, the slats on the back half are about half the width of the slats on the front half. If you want a loaf of uniform slices, you have to move the bread or you'll get half wide and half skinny slices. It bugs me.

No, the blade is not adjustable & the cut can not be made thinner. It is a spiral 'screw' like handle so it is fixed & uniform slices. No zester. It is an excellent tool for spiral cut apples or potato's.

not the thickness of the slices, but you can adjust the thickness of the peel it takes off

No, they cannot be adjusted. The blades are perfectly positioned for cutting cabbage for slaw.

It will adjust for thinness/thickness for slicing. I think you would need a different tool that has attachments in order to julienne something. Hope that helps.

You can adjust it but not a lot. The picture is pretty mucj the lowest it will get :)

My granddaughter has mine at the present but I think you can adjust the blade so it slices thicker.

Slide back and forth - do not press down. It is a natural tendency to press down when we are slicing like this, but what that does is flex the slicer base and cause binding. I finally got out of the habit of pressing down and slicing is almost effortless now. Think of it as almost wafting the sweet potato chunk back and forth rather than pressing it into the blade. Also, make sure you are using the safety guard - it makes it not only safer, but also easier to get the correct position for slicing.

I preferred the slicer that wasn't adjustable as this one tends to move thickness whilst in use as there is no locking mechanism. The non adjustable is the same brand, make sure you get the thin slicer and yes it will do your job I use mine all the time I love it!
