what size meat slices can you slice? ie: up to 1 inch?

I would not recommend slicing anything that is dense and hard as a cooked brisket, but it may very well work on something less hard. I have used it on meats up to 1/4 inch and it works fine. I really wish I had bought a more powerful motor because after using this one only 8 to 10 times, it is showing sighs or wearing out.

Nope. 1/2 inch is the largest slice. I've never even come close to that. Most of the time I'm slicing bacon, meat or cheese.

We have only cut about 1/2 inch slices. Beyond that, we are not sure. Hope that helps. We are very pleased with our slicer.

This slicer works very well. The shred width is not adjustable. It is very fine. Around 1/8th inch?

It, of course, depends on how wide you cut the pieces, I would say about 12 to 16 slices.

The thickness cannot be adjusted. The slices are 1/4 to 3/8". I canned mine and made a pie last night. If used fresh the slices probably wouldn't cook to pieces. The taste is the same and there were no complaints about big chunks of apple missing from the pie. I really save a lot of time and effort by using this device--a whole box of apples from the grocery store in about 35-45 minutes. Really saved my wrists and hands!

Sorry Tweety Bird .... You can only try it ..... The slices are really not very thick when cut using the slots on the slicer ..... Much thinner and you won't have much bread left &#128556;

The maximum food length (from the instruction manual) is 9". The manual also states that 'large food items like roasts and slabs of bacon' need to be cut into smaller pieces before slicing.

It's approximately 1/2 inch but you can press your knife one way or another to make it a little thicker or thinner. Or you can skip a slot to get a 1 inch slice. There are 8 slots so you can cut up to 9 slices without moving the loaf of bread.

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!

Really depends on how you cut it... I've put over 4 lbs of meat in there before but again its going to come down to how thin you cut the strips. If you go very thin you may need a couple more trays.

Yes, I found that replacement parts can be ordered from www.westonsupply.com. No, contact thickness is not adjustable however your meat slices should not exceed a thickness of 1-1/2".

It depends on product to be sliced. Today I shaved COLD salami just under 1 mm. My Ham is about 1.5 mm. The adjustment will go just past even ,so try a few slices from even until your happy. LOU.

Max about 1 inch. But you can control thinner slices...down to about 1/4 inch. One of the reasons I love this thing!

Yeah, slices very thin. We sliced potatoes to around a 1/16" slices and fried them. Worked great I thought

I measured it and it is 1 1/2 inches. The meat has to be cut up somewhat to go through but you can cut it in long strips and it works out just fine. We are very pleased with our machine.

slices are about 3/8 inch and it may be adjustable but I have never needed to do it.

I would prefer the nine inch blade for slicing something as thick as a roast or turkey.

I have not tried slicing any meat type items -however ham would not work at all because of the size limitation of the slicer (appoximently 2" wide) Sausage would be linited to something hard enough to hold its shape as it was sliced Peporoni would proably work - Hard salami would be too wide for the slicer
