what is the maximum potato length you can cut in 1 swoop

It depends on your potatoe size. One thing important to note, it takes a lot of force to pull it through the potatoe. Best if it is mounted to the wall.

Without getting it out and measuring, I'd say 8-9 inches. You trying for some sort of record?

How many millimeters long (not wide) can cut this, I need one of at least 20 milimeter long cuts.

Since the blades are the lowest point you can cut as short as you need. Maybe down to1/16th

12 - 42mm. That's a maximum of about 1.6 inches, which is not high at all. I just used mine for the first time at 42 and I'm concerned about how low it cut.

1" is the attachment for the longest cut. That is also the biggest attachment, so 1" would be the longest cut. Hope this helps.

The cutter comes with two different cutting plates. regular plate cuts 25 fries and the small plate cuts 49. You may also be interested in that the size of potato that can be put into the cutter has to be under 4" x 2". Also getting the number of fries stated above will only be possible if you use a potato cut to fit the entire plate.

I think the trick is you have to turn the handle in both directions back and forth no matter what you use in it. You should be able to use one potato at a time. I have never had a problem with quantity when using mine. I have used it for cactus apples for the juice and at times put one in and mushed it fine. I have used it with tomato's and different foods. Hope this helps, just grab the handle and work it in both directions.

No, the capacity of the food shoot will not sustain a potato. You will have to pre-cut them.

How long is a piece of string? Really depends upon the size of your family and their appetite for fries. (Americans tend to go overboard with fries). I use no more than 2 pounds of potatoes (there are concerns about the strength of the paddle if the machine is overloaded) and get at least 4 servings which I consider of adequate size for adults). As with the other reviewers I'm not aware of any other size of machine from T-Fal.

If you are thinking of most potato chips, then no, the 2mm blade does not cut the potato into thin enough slices. But the slices are thinner than the regular blade that comes with the unit, and I have this 2mm blade and use it a lot. I like it for many uses... thin celery slices, carrots, zucchini, potatoes.... etc.

The maximum length of a cut is 2.75 inches. When fully open, they are not quite 90 degrees.

A good sized baked potato - 5 to 6 inches long with a good size girth. But the bigger the potato the more effort you need to push it threw. It is a good machine.

If well mounted on a wall at the proper height I believe the open cutter's mouth would be about seven inches though I do not have it here with me to measure. The mounting is important as resistance against the push will be intense especially with a large firm potato.

This item is probably not the best for cutting french fries. This machine is most suited for dicing vegetables into small cubes (there are three different sizes of cube cuts available via the interchangeable blades), so it would be good for making hash browns if you didn't have a preference for the shoe string style hash browns. However, you would still have to cut the potato into smaller chunks at first though. This machine is made of plastic, so trying to dice a large potato all at once may result in the lever mechanism breaking. I have found that this machine is best at dicing vegetables with a certain consistency as well (not too gooey, otherwise chunks will not dice properly and/or will get stuck in the blades). Ideally, it would be used to dice onions, and this is primarily what I use it for.

I believe little bit 1/4 is the Max can take but is very good for the small size.. Thanks for asking .
