This heavy duty, rugged professional slicer folds compactly for convenient storage. Key components are constructed of aluminum and stainless steel, providing excellent stability and precision slicing comparable to non-folding slicers. The powerful, high quality 100 watt, geared motor and multi-purpose approximately 7-inch (17 cm.) diameter stainless steel blade guarantee you'll easily slice meats, cheeses, breads, vegetables and fruits. The slicer folds to a compact 3 1/2 inches to stand on its side or store in a drawer. A stainless steel bracket for "against the wall" storage and serving tray are included.
