Boasting a hollow-ground, 12" chromium-plated carbon steel knife, an ample product carriage, and a powerful 1 speed, 1/2 hp totally enclosed knife motor, this Berkel 827A-PLUS manual gravity feed slicer is perfect for light to medium volume applications that require about 4-5 hours or less of meat and cheese slicing per day! Thanks to its 45 degree product table, this model requires less mechanical pressure than comparable slicers and also creates a more consistent, even product. An infinite adjustment system allows you to produce slices ranging from tissue thin to thicker cuts, and it also comes with a convenient built-in two stone sharpener to ensure you always keep a razor sharp edge on your blade. Additionally, this unit disassembles quickly and easily without the use of tools, and features a stainless steel and anodized aluminum construction that makes it easy to clean. Please consult the Specification Sheet for additional details.

This slicer is well-designed, easy to take apart and clean, and easy to put back together. And while it's a solid unit, it's not so heavy that I can't move it myself. It's a terrific value and even if I had a larger budget to play with, I'd buy this one again!

This slicer is a great value; it's high quality and powerful enough for our needs and the price was great. We've paid much more for other slicers that were not half as good as this one.
