Amazon.com Review
Designed to slice almost every edible in a kitchen, this professional quality food slicer from Waring makes quick work of meats, cheeses, breads, fruits, and vegetables. The slicer's premium stainless-steel and die-cast aluminum construction promises dependable, long-lasting performance. Moreover, it's safe, with nonslip operation and an aluminum food guide to keep hands and fingers away from the blade. The smooth-edged 7-1/4-inch stainless-steel blade is perfectly balanced and adjusts with a clearly marked width-control dial ranging from 1/32-inch to 1/2-inch. You can slice pepperoni paper-thin or cut a loaf of French bread into appetizer-size rounds. With comfortable, textured handles, the slicer is easy to use, and Waring makes cleanup as simple as possible with a scratch-resistant finish and a pivoting food guide. The slicer weighs 13-1/4 pounds, has a 14-by-8-1/2-inch footprint, and stands on suction cup feet to ensure stable operation. The motor comes with a five-year limited warranty. --Emily Bedard

A very disappointing...experience., June 6, 2002

I just received my Amazon.com..., a Waring FS800 Pro Electric Food Slicer. Upon trying to use this item for the first time the motor barely had enough power to cut a tomato and emitted a burning smell as soon as I turned it on... Unmentioned on the web page is the 10 minute duty cycle, an important piece of information that would have been a big help in deciding wether to purchase this item...

does not do the job, January 27, 2003

This review is from: Waring FS800 Pro Electric Food Slicer (Kitchen)
I tried to slice both a roast and a proscuitto into thin slices and was unable to do either properly. When the meat passed the leading edge of the blade it slowed the motor down signifigantly by pressing on the full surface of the blade. I could not get one full slice out of that machine. I will try to return it and look for a better one to buy. It is useless for the purpose I bought it for.

Light intermittent household use at best., June 7, 2002

This review is from: Waring FS800 Pro Electric Food Slicer (Kitchen)
Stainless-steel and die-cast aluminum construction promises performance, but the undersized electric motor limits this slicer to very light intermittent household use. The Waring FS800 Pro Electric Food Slicer seems to have a barely adequate motor when brand new with a new sharp blade. Just think how it will perform when the blade gets a little dull. This is definitely not a professional quality food slicer, it is only a light intermittent duty slicer at best.
