VEVOR 200W Electric Meat Slicer (8.7-inch blade): features and specs

This VEVOR electric slicer is a countertop machine for cutting meat, cheese, bread and vegetables into even slices. A slicer is for cooks who prepare roasts, cured meats or cheese in bulk and want consistent thickness, which is hard to get with a knife. VEVOR positions it for home kitchens as well as delis, canteens and butcher's shops.

Motor, blade and speed

The slicer has a 200W motor and an 8.7-inch (22 cm) chromium-plated steel blade. The listing gives a blade speed of 350-400 RPM in its features, while the longer description quotes 1200 RPM and a 240W output, so check the specification on the machine or in the manual for the exact figures. VEVOR says it can produce about 30 slices per minute. Slice rate depends on how quickly you move the carriage and on the food.

Adjusting thickness

A knob with a degree scale sets thickness from 0 to 12 mm (0-0.47 inch). Thin settings suit cured meats, deli turkey and cheese for sandwiches; thicker settings suit roasts, bread and vegetables. Once the knob is set, every slice should come out the same, which helps with portioning.

Cutting different foods

VEVOR lists meat, cooked food, cheese, roast beef, turkey breast, bread, vegetables and fruit. It gives some preparation notes: thaw frozen meat at room temperature for around 15 minutes, chill fresh meat in the freezer until firm before slicing, and freeze soft foods briefly before cutting. Firm, cold food generally slices more cleanly than soft or warm food.

Build, guard and cleaning

The body is cast aluminium and the blade is chromium-plated steel, which VEVOR says resists rust and corrosion. A transparent baffle sits over the blade to protect your hand. The food pusher holds the item against the carriage, and a handle makes it easier to guide. Rubber feet keep the machine from sliding, and the power switch has a waterproof cover. The blade and baffle detach so they can be cleaned separately, and hidden grindstones are included so the blade can be sharpened. Always unplug the machine before cleaning or sharpening, and follow the manual.

Size and what's in the box

The slicer measures about 18.9 x 16.9 x 13.8 in (48 x 43 x 35 cm) and weighs 28.7 lb (13 kg), so it needs a dedicated spot on a sturdy counter. The box includes the slicer, two grindstones, a motor belt and an instruction book.

Who it suits

It suits households that batch-prepare meats and cheeses, small food businesses, and anyone who wants even slices for charcuterie or sandwiches.

What to check before you buy

• Counter space: measure the footprint and allow room for the carriage to travel.
• Weight: it is heavy; decide where it will live between uses.
• Food safety: clean it after each use, especially after raw meat, as the manual describes.
• Sharpening: plan for occasional blade upkeep.
• Commercial use: check local food-premises rules if you intend to use it in a business.
• Specs: confirm the motor speed and power on the product label.
