Can V-7000 model produced a thin carrot julienne which is 1.5mm to 2mm on each side? 3.5mm sounds too thick for my kind of cooking.

A 3.5 mm cross cut blade is what the machine has; there are no adjustments. And besides, long vegetables like carrots are not held securely in the holder. A food processor with julienne disk blade attachments would do a much better job.

If you mean 1/4"-1/2" diced pieces, no, it does a nice job with sliced veggies for soups, stews, etc. If I need diced veggies for any recipe I dice them myself using a Chef's knife (8").

Yikes...definitely not...nice pot though! I agree with previous answer, more of a large veggie portion pot! Good luck.

You don't dice with it - not that I have figured out.Everything is vertical - so you can Julienne with it - but dicing would be (pardon the pun) dicey.

Hello Susano, I don't know if this will work for longer julienne veggies, but I do make nice long julienne "french fried" potatoes using this slicer. Do you have a specific purpose ie recipe for the longer julienne zucchini? Please let me know what that is, and I will try it for you before you purchase this slicer. You can contact me here, or at my email joyrose94@yahoo.comThank youVal

Not too easily. With a layered vegetable like onions, julienne them perpendicular to the axis and break up the segments. With others you would julienne them once and and hand slice the strips or attempt to julienne them a second time at right angles though I haven't tried it and you would need to be very careful.

Thickens is adjustable from 1 to 5 mm. But problem is. Actual slicer is not as showed on photo.Real slicer which you will get is cheaper and smaller version of Benriner. Be warmed.

Yep. Don't know why the 2mm discrepancy, but the one I ordered works like a champ in my 6-cup stovetop model. (And the price is right...)

No. This slicer creates medium sized, julienne "strips". It does not create flat slices. I use it to julienne carrots, broccoli, radishes and other veggies for salads and sandwitches. (The julienne strips this slicer creates are like grated vegetables, but the grated pieces are a lot fatter and longer.)

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!

Carrots were no problem, but I wouldn't go beyond. Actually, I wouldn't bother buying at all. I broke mine on a butternut squash rendering it useless.

While I've never made that dish, I have sliced onions from about 1/8" to paper thin depending on what I'm making, using the larger mandoline. It works really well, meaning the slices are uniform and consistent as long as you use proper technique and don't try to go super fast (meaning slide the onion all the way back past the blades before heading forward for another slice).

well I wound up buying 2 different rings.. First one was too large and I kept it. So, what I did was ,cut the large ring to fit my pressure cooker top, and sent it in showing them the exact size, and they STILL sent me the wrong size (too small). I wound up buying a new pressure cooker. Thats the truth.

Pretty thick I made my mix thinner because I made my first batch too dense. Cooks evenly though

There are 3 julienne blades. I find that the middle sized one is the best for making zuchinni noodles. The smallest one is way too fine. The standard slicing blade is attached to the mechanism. If you are slicing, then you don't need to add the julienne part. Once you get the hang of it, it works great. It is super sharp and even if you are careful, you will probably cut yourself once; I did and I was super careful. Great product for the price.

Sorry I was quite wrong. I used a pair of calipers and it mikes out at 1mm exactly. This seems correct for a wok though. 2mm+ would be more a "skillet" and too heavy to lift. It is not flimsy, pretty solid. Sorry I hope this is helpful.

I'm not sure what you mean by a V-slicer and I don't think I've used one so I can't say. The julienne blades don't work well with harder vegetables. It's a shame because that's what we really wanted it for but...oh, well. I know others have said that it does work well so perhaps it is our inexperience with it. It's our first. We will try again and let you know!
