I needed a bread slicer for both my sourdough boules and sandwich loaves. This is perfect for both. The box arrived quickly and the slicer was in perfect condition. It cuts even, effortless slices of any thickness, cutting through the bottom crust of my sourdough boule with ease. So much better than struggling to get through it with a bread knife. We use it weekly for the best paninis and sourdough French toast.
