I just rec'd a Benriner slicer &amp; it only has 2 black rubber stopper on the bottom of the slicer. Is this normal or am I missing 2 of the stoppers?

Normal. Mine came that way too (there's likely a logical explanation as to why they're only on two, but I'm not entirely certain). If you look really close at the enlarged photo in Amazon you can see the back feet (nearest the cutter surface) have the black rubber stoppers. The two front feet don't.

What kind of veggies?? Did you take the protective tape off blade and are the blades in correctly?? There are 3 different blades to how you want the veggies. The veggies should be firm so they cut better. I have not had problem with mine and I am not sure what or how you are doing this just guessing!! I hope this helps I do enjoy my slicer and have not had problems..

When my slicer first arrived I adjusted the handle and wire and it hasn't moved since. Maybe yours is defective? I'm not sure because I have not had this problem. Maybe they will replace it?

The blade for cutting is attached to the mandolin itself and very, very sharp. Then there are 3 triangular shaped black plastic things that attach to the mandolin. They are marked "thin slices, medium slices and thick slices". It is hard to read as it is "black on black". But you insert one of your choice and use the food holder and slice away! :) I just love mine! Have been married 57 years and don't know how I ever got along without it! Hope this is helpful to you....

This slicer comes with a 3.5mm and a 7mm julienne blade insert. Thank you for pointing out the error in the description, we will be sure to contact Amazon to get that corrected!

Separately. And unless you are used to this style of slicer and know how to use it better than me, I am not impressed. It was not effective on even a medium hard cheese. Very inconsistent.

Yes, I was confused as well but after some experimentation, I found that instead of pressing down the slicer onto the banana to slice, you can unslice but pushing the unused slices back through the corresponding slots. I will post video on youtube when I have a free moment. I... just... can't stop using this amazing product.

Didn't see the red/clear. The red/grey is the one I have and it works great even bought one for a gift. Nice to have the smaller slices. I recommend it.

What is the actual problem? Is it not cutting at all? Mine had a protective sticker on the back blade when I received it. It also only works with the cutters pointed down into the vegetable. I use a fork to hold the veggie down and protect my fingers. Not sure what else to suggest without knowing what is happening.

I cannot answer your question, as I have had terrible results from this particular slicer. Needless to say I am disappointed with the slicer, I could not get it to work either. The images display multiple strands coming from the slicer at one time, I only ever had one strand come from mine.

I have no idea and can't check because the slicer is at our other house. Sorry but next time I'm at the other house I will check. If you don't have the printed manual you may be able to find it online through the manufacturer.

i am not sure. i had a slicer my mother gave me years ago but it finally "died". i found the one i have on amazon, read the reviews on various brands and finally decided on the one i wanted. it is heavier than my old one but it works quite well. i wish i knew the difference but i don't. i am so sorry i could not give you the info you needed.

Darlene, I love this slicer. It is durable and works great. In fact, my sister is borrowing it. I bought it with a coupon so that helped but honestly it seems it will last a lifetime. Good luck!

Well, please make sure that the rubber stopper is securely glued for new orders. I wish you had checked mine before you shipped it. Thanks for your response.PS: You could add a heavier rubber piece or have a molded plastic stopper that has a soft edge to it.

Maybe try your local hardware store. Take the slicer with you and find someone working in the hardware area to help you. Oh,do buy extra screws if you find them. Good luck!

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

Yes, and it's a real limitation in my humble opinion. It can be quite tricky to distinguish the 571B from the banana one is slicing, especially when slicing whole bunches at a time (with the rapidity afford by this slicer, I find I rarely stop at less). I think it's time for a high-visibility version, probably with flashing lights at frequent intervals along the frame and on all the cutters.
