There's a reason why Benriner is often mentioned as the mandoline of choice in many professional kitchens: This Japanese-built slicer is simple in design, but it's also a real workhorse. Dozens of tomatoes, radishes, potatoes, carrots, zucchinis, and bell peppers were sliced into various sizes and styles, from straight and julienne to crinkle-cut and wavy, to test their multitasking capabilities and make sure these tools are truly the best mandolines on the market. To help you find which mandoline is right for your kitchen endeavors, we tested them side by side and evaluated each on design, ease of use, convenience, size, cleaning, and overall value. A mandoline replaces a knife for making those perfectly even cuts, and it’s particularly useful for making super-thin cuts for potato chips that are difficult with a knife. While uniform cuts make food look more presentable, they also mean that the food will cook evenly, so some bits won’t be soft while others are still crunchy. Some home cooks can handle a knife skillfully, though most don’t have as much practice as professional chefs, so their cuts are less likely to be identical. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.Slicing foods evenly is a skill that chefs learn in school and perfect over time. It came out incredible!!!! I am so so happy and this metal scrubber made a huge difference in effort and time. (super important, don’t skip the aluminum foil landing). I also lined the bottom rack with aluminum foil to catch the drippings. It was filthy but I didn’t have to put as much elbow grease into this task because of the scrubber! After it dried, I put oil on it (I used vegetable oil because that’s what I had on hand but a lot of YouTubers swear by vegetable shortening, flax seed oil, grape seed oil and olive oil) then I put it in the oven upside down at 375 degrees on top rack for an hour then turned the oven off and let it cool completely before opening. Then used this metal scrubber and kosher salt to scrub away. I soaked it in 1/2 water 1/2 distilled white vinegar for eight hours in the sink. He works two jobs and has no time to breathe so I figured I would watch some YouTube videos and try to restore it. I found an old rusty skillet on my Dad’s back porch that he said has been out there since he moved in three years ago. This cast-iron metal scrubber cleaner did the impossible. The brushes show almost no wear, so we are good to go the next time they're needed. After those jobs, I rinsed and dried the brushes and put them back in the box. When the shower floor needed new caulk, the blue brushes did a nice job of cleaning the floor and walls. This is usually a difficult job with a hand brush but the drill brush made a huge difference.

I used the white ones to clean brake dust and winter muck from my truck wheels.

It makes sense to have several colors on hand as the stiffness of the brushes varies by color. Promising review: ' These brushes work really well for cleaning. This is just a set of three brushes that attach to your drill, or you can buy this one.Ībout the colors: The white is a soft bristle, best for wheels, carpet, upholstery, glass, and leather the yellow is a medium bristle, best for bathroom, bathtub, shower, tile, and porcelain the green is a medium bristle, best for kitchen, stoves, cabinets, countertops, and linoleum the blue is a medium bristle, best for boats, pools, canoe/kayaks, hot tubs, and plastics the red is a stiff bristle, best for outdoors, siding, brick, garage, and gutter and the black is a hard bristle, best for grills, loose paint, furnaces, ovens, and industrial use.
