CAWIU Manual Bread Slicer with Hand Crank- Adjustable Thickness Bread Cutter for Even Slices, Perfect for Homemade Sourdough, Sandwich, and More, Black

After years of trying to cut reasonably uniform slices of my weekly sourdough loaves without much success with bread knives and bow saws, I finally broke down and bought this machine. The first time out of the box it worked amazingly well, effortlessly sawing off perfect, uniform slices of bread set to the thickness that I chose, just like the photo in the ad shows. Apart from a few breadcrumbs to knock off and wipe up when you're done, there is no mess to clean up. It comes with two wrenches for keeping screw and bolt tensions correct on the base and the sliding thickness plate. The circular blade is fastened with a Phillips head screw. Simple and effective. Aiding in its flawless bread slicing are its four suction cups at its base. Their suction power is incredible to the point of being difficult to break free when you’re finished. I slipped a dull butter knife under them to pry them from our countertop. Needless to say, the machine did not move an iota during operation. The machine’s design and functioning are excellent, and its overall build quality is good and sufficient to its purpose. The wood and paint are attractively finished. A word of caution: the last slice of bread gets your guiding hand very close to the sharp blade. I’m going to use a cut-proof kitchen glove from now on. My wife took a short video of me making a perfect slice the first time, but for some reason it would not upload. Too bad!

Love my bread slicer, be careful the blade is sharp. Strong grip no worries about it moving while using it. Love that you could adjust the thickness of the cut you want. Easy to clean very durability great value. Makes slicing bread easy. Love it!

Literally just got this and I already love it. I bake a lot of homemade sourdough and this sliced right through it cleanly. The suction cups work great the base is nice and heavy. The construction is solid and the blade is nice and sharp. What more can I say? Big thank you to the company for making a good product no more cut fingers.

Good for the price point. Cuts the bread well. The suction never works for me, which makes it extremely difficult to use, slides all over the counter. Great product slicer if I have someone hold it while I slice.

I've used this several times for about a month to cut sourdough and it works very well. Yes, you have to guide the bread through, but it's a manual bread slicer. The grip works and comes off great. The only tiny downside is that one you get about halfway through a loaf, those slices start to get unevenly cut at the end of the slice; even when I do my best to guide it straight (I wish I could give 4.5 stars).

I love my new bread slicer! This is so handy! I finally have perfectly sliced bread without ripping up my loaf! I even offer to pre-slice loaves before giving them away. The adjustable size is easy to use to make thin or thick slices. The blade easily wipes clean after using with flavored loaves. This is well worth the price, especially given its lower price point than more expensive versions. Just go for it!

It took me forever to find a bread slicer that was both good value and actually did what it promised—but this one delivers. It’s easy to use, and the slices come out consistent every time, whether it’s a soft loaf or a crusty artisan bread. The suction cups don’t work the best but I would deal with it for easy bread slicing. The build feels sturdy, and cleanup is simple. It’s one of those kitchen tools you don’t realize you need until you finally have it—makes breakfast and sandwich prep way easier. 💡 Tip: Use gentle, steady pressure to get the most even slices, especially with softer breads. Verdict: Practical, consistent, and a great value—finally a slicer that works as advertised.

VERY EASY FIX TO A COMMON ISSUE Received the slicer this morning and immediately put it to the test. Used a loaf of sourdough we made yesterday. I can confirm one of the biggest complaints with this slicer was the suction cups. Even moistening them did nothing to get them to stick. The slicer was sliding all over the countertop. That made it difficult to operate the machine safely without it wandering all over the counter. I can also see how some people were saying the screws securing the suction cups to the base were cutting into the counter. My fix... I removed the suction cups and replaced them with NON SKID FURNITURE PADS. Once I swapped out the pads for the suction cups, this slicer was NOT moving at all. Not even in the slightest. Problem 100% solved. I did notice that near the end of each piece being sliced it did taper off a bit making semi uneven slices, but that really isn't a game changer. I would have given it 5 stars had I not had to modify the slicer. Do the fix and it works like a charm!

My best friend gifts me fancy sourdough all the time, so I gifted her this for her birthday! She LOVES it so much!!

this is a fabulous item, it does exactly what it says it's going to do, and it was $70 cheaper than a top brand one. It's excellent, I could not be happier with it.

Absolutely love this cutter! Never again will my bread have huge variations in thickness. Works very well with nice sourdough breads. Be careful as softer breads will have a bit of an issue with cutting even slices.

Easy to use, it's a luxury to get straight slices of home made sourdough.

The slicer cuts well but the suction cups are not very strong and the slicer moves around while you’re cutting.
