Difference Between Ultimate Mandolin and Simple Slicer

In summary, the main difference between the Ultimate Mandolin and the Simple Slicer is the number of slicing options available. They can both be used for slicing vegetables, fruits, and cheese, but the Ultimate Mandolin offers more versatility with 9 slicing thicknesses and a waffle blade. The Simple Slicer is generally considered easier to use and clean due to its simple design and fewer parts. However, with practice, the Ultimate Mandolin can also be easy to use and offers more precision. Both slicers can be used for small or large quantities of food, but the Ultimate Mandolin may be more efficient for larger quantities due to its larger slicing surface and additional options.
