Will this slice a lemon

The knife part probably can cut thru the skin. I doubt the slicer end will cut clean thru.

I would think no...the skin is too thick. It slices think skinned fruits and veggies wonderfully.

Yes, it will cut through anything that a regular utility knife will cut. It uses standard utility knife blades.

I've not had mine very long and have only used it once...and it does slice...the slicing looks like a slinky (spirally) ...lol

It would work great on lemons I use it for limes which are probably the same size as a lemon or even a little bit smaller and it works great.

The openning is oval, so depending on the size of your lemon, it will probably fit. The slicers that came with the Cuisinart are 2 millimeters and 4 millimeters. Hope you can translate that into inches. I know you can buy other sized slicers and graters for a decent price.

I'm sorry, I don't know for sure. I am still using and enjoying this slicer.

No, I don't think so. It makes slices (think tomatoes or cucumbers) it doesn't shred.

Probably not. It is a well made product, but we found it impractical for slicing anything but the smallest loaves.

No, because that would dull it considerable, and probably lower the temper in the blade due to excessive heat. The blade is much thinner than a conventional kitchen knife.

I wouldnt want to slice tomtatoes or onions with it. I would be afraid of getting my fingers in the blade. I would use a mandaline for that.

Wait til it cools and slice with very sharp kitchen knife. Don't be tempted to slice while hot it will tear apart.

It will.. not as good as it cuts through softer vegetables perhaps but it is an amazing tool for any kitchen and i love it.. it's very functional is a lot of ways.

As soon as it doesn't seem to cut as well. PLEASE, get yourself a sharpening steel......what the chefs use. Works GREAT with just a few swipes! And PLEASE DO NOT PUT A GOOD KNIFE INT HE DISHWASHER!!!!!

No reason it shouldn't. I have not tried yet, but I would not hesitate to try. As long as it is a somewhat firm cheese. You won't be able to slice something soft like a Brie. But American you could. I wouldn't try softer than that. The issue I have with it is that there is no arm or bar that slides on the carriage to hold what ever you are slicing in place, like on a commercial deli slicer. You only have the hand grip that is meant to hold it against the blade for slicing. Depending on the size and shape of what you are slicing, this can be challenging to keep the product from slipping and turning sideways against the blade. I'm not sure if that makes sense, but if you have experience with commercial slicers you understand.

I'm not sure. This slicer is a piece of junk and mine broke before it was a year old.

Not to my knowledge. The blade is on one side of the disc only, and so slices quickly rather than peels. Slices are quite even.
