I know that this product makes veggies into noodles but does it just slice as well? Im looking for a all in one.

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

Yes there is a single slice blade along with 2 noodle blades. For the price this is a great value!

It chops finely. No blender consistency. It has a fast speed and a slower speed. I just give it a couple of quick pulses on fast usually and it's chopped. I've chopped onion, garlic and cilantro and it does great. I've also chopped tomato but you don't want to get it filled more than halfway if there will be any liquid at all which you get even when you use a knife. I really wish I had gotten this a lot sooner.

You have to cut stuff to fit in the container, but once your veggies/fruits are inside the container, it slices and dices...and does a very good job of it!

It doesn't slice. But is a great chopper and mincer. I am very happy with the appliance, in fact I am using my second one.

You know...I am not 100% sure on that one, it does make long shreds, when I shred cheddar cheese the strands are much longer in comparison to other modes of shredding (ie box greater). The only problem I can foresee using the shredding disk is that a zucchini is much lighter than the cheese and this may effect how long you make the noodle. I think you are looking roughly at the length of a egg noodle, and that is if you shove the zucchini in the spout lengthwise to promote the formation of a noodle. The Vita-Mix comes to mind when you said zucchini noodles (just thinking of the commercial, not that a vita-mix could make the noodle), and if that is what you are looking for lengthwise...I don't think this will do it. Hope that helps.

I personally bought this Ninja for fruits and vegetables. I found no problem using it. It blended well. I also tried some meat and fish, not bad as well. It is only one speed with no botton. easy to use. I would give 5 star for it. I do mostly fruit smoothies, absolute no problem at all and satisfied.

I just tried it on some baby carrots and it worked. It dices it into small pieces. I have not tried it on other root vegetables.

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.

My experience was pretty bad. I ended up throwing mine away. The blade wouldn't cut through any vegetable with a skin (e.g. eggplant, zucchini, etc) without tearing the vegetable. Even after I got the blade professionally sharpened. I would suggest a mandoline with a blade set at an angle.

I don't think it slices because it only had one blade. It will shred lettuce and cabbage very nicely. Check to see if you can purchase additional blades for additional slicing Otherwise, it's ,neat, fast, easy to clean, DW safe and tub is a good size.

Your question made me curious, so I tried to put various types of vegetables through my Norpro grinder after dicing them, and it did produce tiny chunks of vegetables, or coursely ground. It was time consuming and not worth the effort. A food grater, dicer or processor would work better, in my opinion. Hope this was helpful.

No... it just slices... but is great for three different thicknesses of slice ... saves me incredible time in the kitchen making salads... and is worth every penny!

I can slice the vegetables very thin, but as far as using it for pasta, it just won't work.... Haha... No, I have made lasagne by making cucumber and zucchini into thin strip and using it as pasta. This works very well for that recipe.

It cuts differently. I make spaghetti zucchini and other unique spaghetti shaped veggies the j cook in coconut oil or olive oil with a few more spices to add flavor topped with lemon juice. Kids like it because it looks like spaghetti

Hi, yes I have, it was fine. The slicer works well with most vegetables, softest I have found to be cucumber.

for me leafy veggies come out really dry Fruit and veggies like cucumbers, not so much. That being said. I love mine. Just make sure to cut stuff up first

No, instead of making individual noodles with firmer vegitables, it makes a flat sheet that is scored and is not easy to pull apart into noodles. This design is quite fragile.
