How well does it slice cheese?

I have not tried cheese (yet) - but I'm sure you will Not have a problem. It is a nice machine. Frozen meat was a breeze, as was Lonza.

Sorry I haven't used it yet to slice bread, but I don't like it for slicing cheese.

Once you have this knife in your kitchen, you'll definitely use it on cheddar cheese....and maybe more. Enjoy!

I have sliced partially frozen meat and cheese with good success. I would not want to put that extra burden on the motor. It's not a professional machine. The cost reflects that it is for moderate home use and does very well.

I have only used it on hard cheese so far. It has worked straight to the end of the block.

Yes! It does a good job of grating cheddar cheese. Just tested it and I give it thumbs up. Haven't tried any other cheeses.

Yes, you can cut cheese with these knives but they don't really work any better than a butter knife and not nearly as well as a cheese slicer. They really excel at slicing things that are not sticky or hard, such as vegetables or meats.

I would say no. It tends to smash softer cheese, and even the hard stuff it crumbles instead of grating. I should have sent this back. As I am sure I stated in my review, it grates these cheese and spits it out in a long rope and because it grates it so fine, that 'rope' gums together and has to be separated by hand. pretty much useless.

Between one to two mm, depending on the cheese, the pressure on the blade and the angle of the blade, although the blade does have a optimum level that it cuts. They are very nice for melting in hot liquid or breaking up on a salad or laying on bread, crackers or rolls.

Yes, it will cut squash very thin, perhaps not spaghetti thin, but close. No it does not grate cheese.

should slice cheese if sliceable. never mind the spelling, you know what i mean. p.s. my slicer has a carriage with a back bar and a device to hold the object against the blade also. similar to the holder in a mandolin. i've effectively sliced raw chicken breasts 1/8" for jerky. 30 lbs. worth. with one big chunk of beef (london broil, brisket,sirloin) really smooth and easy. semi-frozen is easier yet. the last little pieces of softer meats are the hardest to do.

The slices are on the thin size, in my opinion. I've been using it less and less as a result, in favor of slicing with a knife. I suppose that means it wasn't a good purchase for me... Probably it depends on whether you like lots of cheese (thick slices) or not (thin slices). Your call.

No it has worked fine for slicing about a pound or two of meat at a time. That's all I need it for. I love mine!

I love this gadget for cheese, chocolate, butter; and it works great with hard cheeses if you want to remove a rind. You can do thicker slices of any cheese-even feta or cubes but not for thin slices.

I believe it will. I have had great success with this slicer and getting consistent thin slices out of it. I would go relatively slow with cheese to give the motor a chance. Not that I've ever had a problem with the motor just that's is not a professional slicer.

Yes it will. You decide the thickness just by moving the cheese in postion under the cutter.
