Amazon Kitchen "Multi-Slicer" Put to the Test!

[@jfilomia]

" I have no sponsors!! " Thats why you are trusted by so many,and why I will always trust your unbiased reviews!! Thank you for all you do!!

[@alexramos7708]

Just because you have sponsors doesn't mean you're being sponsored by these companies. Nothing wrong with a hello fresh or raid shadow legends sponsor

[@RabbitsInBlack]

​@@alexramos7708 The good old scripted BS sponsors. People that pretend to like these products and are told what to say.

[@shannondore]

That was so funny when he said that.😆

[@tamastarczy6262]

James is so honorable for not having any boring ads/sponsors. 😊 Everything for the viewer! Thats dedication

[@misterhat5823]

The best part is that you can trust that you're not watching an infomercial.

[@usernameisusername]

Are you both overly gay?

[@valvenator]

​@@misterhat5823Yeah, if he started taking sponsors the reviews would become suspect. The fact that he gets freebies sometimes doesn't bother me since he doesn't ask for them which means no one is being forced in any way.

[@adamfroman7983]

I am on the opposite side..I was hoping on him to do sponsorships..He could do sponsorships from products that he reviewed and loved..With those special items, he would also be able to offer his viewers discounts on the sponsorships that he loves and trusts..Plus, with all the extra money from the sponsorships (hundreds to thousands per video) he could put the money into the videos or use it so he could go back to making less videos to make his life easier as he deserves it..

[@SangriaDracul]

@@adamfroman7983 He kinda does that already but without sponsorship. He puts the items he trusts on his website store and also give freebies every month.

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

When you said "I wanna thank today's sponsor" I totally went for it for a second haha.

[@Expo-]

We need to remind him we appreciate it once in a while because most creators can’t resist the 💰 (and the strings attached)

[@LexusLFA554]

I skipped ahead xD

[@nicholas3354]

@@Expo- This is the only review channel I watch. Not specifically due to lack of sponsors, but it's kinda part of the package-deal of what makes James excellent at what he does.

[@dolan-duk]

The unevenness is probably caused by how you are holding up the slicer instead of resting it vertically on a surface - as you push, the pressure is moving the grater hand away causing it to slice unevenly.

[@Festivus_Miracle]

If you can't hold a food cutting product a certain way to make it work, then it's a bad product. Everyone is going to hold this differently.

[@Bigdaddyhammer]

Yep. Also... Put some muscle into it, Sally.

[@michaelp.3485]

​@@walkergillette3918 No he is actually really good.

[@bmljenny]

Might work better if you lay the slicer over top of a bowl so you weren't fighting to hold the slicer still.

[@heavenboundx9232]

Theres a reason why there's a rubber peice on the end its to place down the slice vertically then slicing as intended and should be common sense

[@ryanwilson_canada]

I think I'll stick with my mandolin and box grater. Ive never found "all in one" tools to be overly useful. Hope everyone is taking care.

[@ItsJustLisa]

Same.

[@EmeraldHill-vo1cs]

Same

[@karenneill9109]

A good quality mandolin makes your life easier. A cheap one will only make you crazy- a knife is much less frustrating.

[@ghw7192]

Agreed

[@alfredoprime5495]

As the old saying goes: "Jack of all trades, master of none"

[@magnusbludworth7690]

I have this exact slicer and I found the best way is to actually draw the tool across the food(especially cabbage) or with the slicer on top of a bowl and drawing the food across the tool perpendicularly. I didn't have great success with cheese. Thank you for the videos!!!

[@juliebaker6969]

For cheese, it would probably work best with a hard cheese like say.....parmesan.

[@victoriaconway1]

Thank you so much for being one of a kind 😂 its so hard to find a youtuber that doesnt take sponsors 😊 love your videos

[@ehleroo]

That “ I don’t take sponsors” at 0:11 was the biggest flex I’ve seen in a review channel! You rock, James.

[@jorgeahued]

You couldn't have made it more difficult on yourself, from the way you're holding the slicer to the way you hold the vegetables.

[@meauxjeaux431]

He should have figured that out right away. That was a no brainer, to be honest.

[@pkohler20]

A bit hard to demonstrate it but also make a quality video of using it I am guessing.

[@junkgyre5301]

Yeah, why on earth is he not using it correctly by placing the stability thing on the table. He isn't even using the glove half the time.

[@Chaybee12]

That sponsor comment made me spit my drink out laughing!

[@m.t.v.7934]

❤❤ I LOVE the fact that you do NOT take sponsorships. This means that EVERY product you have EVER shown on your channel gets your honest review. You have already saved me money and I am fairly new to your channel. I can only guess that a lot of other people have saved a lot of $$ after watching your channel. Thanks for what you have done and keep on doing. Simple thing like this channel helping to make the world a better place.

[@shelleylemmond46]

I love the round grater 😊. Thank you for your honest reviews and no sponsors !

[@baronvg]

Hey, James! I applaud you for not taking sponsors. It seems like every KZbinr that does gets crap because the company ends up in some controversy or terrible scandal lmao 🤣

[@1lmp1]

There are already multiple KZbinrs I quit following when they start to peddle sponsors. Many of them are interesting and just when a new one gets to a point their videos are becoming more "professional, then they cut down the videos to 5 min soundbites, but half of it is advertisement! That is when I quit watching. Greed has no limit!

[@harveyabel1354]

Molly Burke is sometimes sponsored by Hello Fresh, and that's I product I appreciate. EDIT: I was a customer before they sponsored Molly.

[@doll9340]

Some KZbinrs make that their whole channel. Talking about different companies and digging into them and their products. I know she is in war with some folks but there is this one KZbinr I really like named Blair. Her channel is Illuminaughti

[@juliebaker6969]

That's the problem with sponsorships, since they're PAYING for the video, how can you trust that what the content creator is SAYING about them is unbiased? Dissing the product is a good way to loose your funding, so they want to talk it up, even if it's mediocre. HOPEFULLY they aren't enough of a sell out to tout a truly BAD product.....but can you be SURE?

[@TracyKMainwaring]

​@juliebaker6969 and even when they say "all opinions are my own" how can you really trust that?

[@jimm8246]

I bought a cheap mandolin slicer at Walmart and it works great. And it is wicked sharp!

[@sandybruce9092]

I’ve had a mandolin (called a V-Slicer) I’ve had for more than 30-35 years - still s,ices, grates, etc. perfectly!

[@LexusLFA554]

Man, that No Sponsor really has great products 👍 The blades don't seem that great, but usually I would put a bowl right beneath it, a really big one so you can rest it on there. The "Awkward-O-Meter" needs to return one day xD

[@jillianburke2]

When you said I would like to thank todays sponsor I was literally like wtf? 😂

[@478Cubano]

totally 😂😂😂 hilarious the same here .

[@7-ten]

Yep

[@Valg5]

That round grater is the best! I bought one after watching your video and I gotta say I love it!!! came super quick too! You haven't let me down yet! Thank you.

[@jsiqueblue4948]

It is refreshing to hear that you don't take sponsors and it is pleasant to watch your videos without a sponsor ad. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@5udimax]

"it's a pretty fine grater, but I'll get into that later" "I've seen much thicker slices from my other devices" Damn, James got bars 🔥😂

[@brooke4259]

Not taking sponsors I’d exactly why I follow you! I only subscribe to a couple channels, and of those, this is the only one that I watch every video and have purchased a couple items based on your UNBIASED reviews. Kudos!

[@zangetsu102]

For the people attacking the way he's using the slicer, he's imitating how the people themselves were demonstrating how to use the slicer. You wanna nitpick somebody, nitpick the people who are selling this thing. Keep up the good work, James.

[@doll9340]

My thoughts exactly

[@cazzey8569]

For a second when you said I want to thank today's sponsor, I thought huh what...I've been watching for years and haven't seen that, then caught on 😂😂 you know you should be asleep when your head thinks James has taken a sponsor. Also I was hiding behind my hand seeing how close your fingers were to that blade, damn. That's dangerous right there

[@doll9340]

He kinda sponsors himself as he does have a site where he sell things and he occasionally promotes it

[@cazzey8569]

@@doll9340 very true, but I mean like Hello Fresh, Nord VPN, *insert anymore overly used sponsorship companies*

[@TheFiXNormal]

For sponsorship, you should thank yourself for buying all the cheap and reviewing it for us 😅😂

[@bradasstv]

I know you never wanted to do sponsors, but if it ever comes the day that the videos arent generating enough revenue to make it worth making videos, rather than quitting, I am sure most of us would understand and be fine with you doing sponsors. We get it. 😁 I just wanted to say that because Ive seen a lot of youtubers complaining about their money lately and giving up on their channels. Funny thing is, a lot of them already have sponsors lol. Just want you to keep doing this for a long time to come or at least as long as you still enjoy it 😁👍

[@judybethclark9431]

I really do love your channel - awkwardness or not! Looking forward to the next one!

[@Tailgatesntoolboxes]

The julienne cut, also known as the allumette or french cut, is a versatile knife cut that allows vegetables, fruits and meat to be cut into fine, thin strips similar to perfectly cut matchsticks. The strips are about 1/16 to 1/8 inches thick and about 3 inches

[@ToniHinton]

That part definitely wasn't suitable for a proper julienne but I bet it would give James the size he wanted for shredding cheese.

[@iamcalledbex]

@@ToniHinton That's what I thought. Looked more like a larger grater and not a julinenne cutter.

[@MrQuickLine]

2:30 - Of course the results aren't grate. The grater comes later in the video.

[@FingerTightRacing8]

James, you’re one of my favorite KZbin creators, you have a magic about you that makes me feel happy whenever I see your videos, everyone thinks I’m weird for watching reviews of stuff I’m never gonna buy but they don’t understand how awesome you are, thanks for being my friend even though you don’t know me😊

[@aaronmurciano4738]

there is a part at the end that you use to place on a table and it grips it. So its supported by the device and not your hand in the air

[@barackmycat9448]

It looked ok but it depends on what you want. I live alone so I usually just use a knife and save the clean up.

[@roxieloot]

Its the way you are holding it. Place end on plate or counter top think you would find it works much better.

[@bigmouss919]

LOOOOL loved that sponsee gag. You are a real one!!

[@UberNeuman]

Everytime you put pressure down for a slice the hairs on my neck stood at end!

[@AlonzoWard]

It's been sitting in my Amazon cart, waiting for your review. Thanks

[@harveyabel1354]

Still want it in your kitchen after this?

[@auntlynnie]

8:20 I have that Chef’N grater - if you turn it over to the other side, you get a finer grate.

[@VampireOnline]

You should take sponsors! There’s plenty of non product sponsors out there for you to take and get that cabbage!

[@jspell3539]

Outstanding work my friend!

[@maggieramirez2475]

I haven't watched all recent videos atm but if you start off all your future videos with that input of the videos "not being sponsored" I think it would help to continue building your brand since your reviews are honest and fair.

[@DarthMohammedRules]

Something a heard a long time ago that still holds up, to this day (this slicer thing included)... The more things a tool does, the less it does those things well.

[@snowflakehunter]

The fact that it is made purely of metal make me want to buy it.

[@knee0036]

Please never stop being one of the good ones. Don't sell yourselve to sponsors. I love you for it!

Oh James, you are the grate-est! You show those veggies who's boss! Happy Monday 👍

Thank you so much for this review! I almost bought one on Amazon a while back after seeing a Facebook video.

[@117Pinkyflower]

I’m thinking NO on the Multi Slicer!

[@mackmcmillan9905]

4:18 - Nice inadvertent "Liar, Liar" reference! "I've had BETTER?!"

[@Raffael-Tausend]

We found one of these on a local market about 7 years ago and it always worked well.

[@DonP_is_lostagain]

I've got one of these, though I got no glove or brush. I found that holding down on the plate with the "bumper" worked best because it prevents the slicer from moving while you're trying to slice.

[@belialbathory2299]

I have a vintage box style one it's much better. Safe storage and catches the food. Love it.

[@hoosiermama3001]

Makes me want the old Salad Shooter 😂

[@deea3586]

I love this sponsor-less channel!

[@toxicginger9936]

You know... they're probably counting the attachment with the three potato peelers on it as THREE, plus the other three attachments makes 6 in 1. lol

[@GeoffreyGodshall]

Thanks, James. Just saved me money again. Not a bad product, I'm sure practice would help. Agreed way too thin. Referring to the "multi-slicer".

[@ShirlBussman]

I'll stick to the old way, but thanks for the review. I hope you had a great Father's Day, James. ☺

[@estoylaroca]

James, I have been a long time fan, but it really needs to be pointed out that you didn't use this product to its intended use. it looks like it has a rubber thing at the end of it, the purpose of which, seems like it's supposed to rest on a surface while you use it. Granting arguendo that it does not look like it has the best blades. I still think it should be given a fair chance. Cheers James.

[@Better_Call_Bulba-Saur]

I have a cheap one similar to this and the seam from where the attachments meet the base gets in the way of moving the vegetables. This one looks very good though.

[@Ethanielas]

"I don't take sponsors" subtle flex but im here for it😂

[@daemonburns-waight2421]

5:26 perfect thickness for homemade potato chips though!

[@allthumbs3792]

As usual, grate review!! 🤣

[@donsummer7779]

My nerves were on edge with this one. I am a victim of mandolin slicer chaos. If they offer a glove, send it back. When you cut the cheese without the glove, I kept thinking, "Well, there goes a finger!" Great review ... you need to be seen my Hollyweird to be the next Billy Mays.

[@kellylaher7512]

I am too! I boxed that thing up and threw it away! 😂

[@tartsonawire]

I bought one of these. Found that moving the slicer instead of the veggies worked better for some reason. Also,. sliced the knuckle of my index finger clean off while learning to use it

[@ladylindakaye1]

I'm glad you reviewed this. I ordered one from an ad on Facebook about 3 years ago and I still haven't received it.

[@ryanmcdougall22]

They created a slicer where a slicer wasn't needed.... Thanks for saving us money James!

[@KkBo15]

There's no chance that I would ever buy this, not ever. What I have to do this job is so old and does a great job.

Dude, you are soooo Murican! 😂😂 I just cant not luv ya! ❤😅 You must lay that damned slicer on a bowl or onto anything that you slice your shit into! 😅😂 Me duuuude 😂😂

[@Gundumb_guy]

The awkward meter actually made me lol

[@JJDBaca]

This might be a good tool to use the Pan Buddy with. It might provide enough (wrist) support to allow you to move back and forth on that thing with quickness.

[@screw__head__281]

New video! Oh yeah! Those things scare me. Get those sponsors out of here! 😂

[@judybethclark9431]

Echoing @duriankia - if you balance the slicer on the plate or counter for support, I think it would work better. 😊

[@danholmesfilm]

OMG that sponsor bit got me, I was like WAIT a minute!? He doesn't do sponsors? lol

[@anlewi1]

I love how thin the potatoes are. Now I just need an electric model where I put the potatoes in and it goes to town.

[@neggyt]

I know for the sake of the camera you want it upright, but you want to put the black part on the cutting board for stability.

[@FilmFlam-8008]

Sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Or the slicer.

[@joeceretti9098]

Apparently, and I quote.. "The cucumber feels pretty good."

[@charliemartin-k7m]

I take no sponsors 100% respect you for that.

[@thatstupidbunnysuit2648]

The editing in this one 😂 awkward meter and the fence sticker.

[@patricianorton3908]

You’ll find a lot easier if you rest the bottom (black) end on the board/counter so that you’re not trying to hold it up while pushing it down.😅

[@selenazc]

Yea i would push a little harder on the potato and have the "foot" on the plate or in a bowl to ancor it to , still not bad

[@chrish6725]

That thing looks like an accident waiting to happen.

[@ohiorichkidbeats]

It would work better if you place the bottom on the plate for leverage..doing it In the air is definitely impractical 😊I'd give it a 7 out of 10, you've demonstrated much better ones

[@candacedolan4857]

Wonder if you would have better luck if you held the veg stationery and moved the slicer across the surface.

[@danequeed8551]

i think you should brace the slicer when doing denser vegetables like potatoes or carrots

[@rodwanolds1871]

Props for the sponsorship bag.

[@bassace5143]

Thank you for not taking sponsors. So many channels sell out to them.

Lol damnit James! I thought something was different but I couldn't figure it out immediately, until you said, "This video is being sponsored by..." I thought this was maybe your first sponsor, because I've watched every video on this channel, and swore I've never seen a sponsor. You almost got me! Lol....why do other creators say they HAVE TO get sponsorships to make any money? Are they lying to me? Lol ❤
