I think Susan is going to get this for me at Christmas...ya I know it is an over kill for a home unit, but what the heck my Grandaughter will end up getting it!
Next is a chamber vacuum sealer ;D
Nice!
That's kind of $exy Raye! :o
Looks very powerfull (http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s62/Gitster59/Big-Thumbs-Up.gif)
I went out today shopping the used equipment places. Still have 3 more to go to. However, to even begin to get a used slicer worth a hoot you are into $1,100.00.
While the unit pictured above is for medium duty let's face it...just how much will I be using it per week? Not that much. Plus new it is only $1249.00.
Olds,
as much as that is a nice piece of equipment, .. I Cant justify the price. for as much as I would use it
I might use it once a month
Crap the unit only open to 5/8" which is not good for cutting ribeyes 3/4....
However, I have found this unit. I will call tomarrow and see how wide it opens.

What is interesting is I did not think they offer this unit in the USA.
In the 70s I have a 60s model Berkel 18" vertical auto slicer that came out of a Tony Pizza place. I could kick myself a 100 times for letting that unit go.
