Works terrific thus far. Would buy again for present.

I'm a Breville enthusiast - juicer, mixer etc etc. Bough this a couple of years ago to replace a functional but very old (20 years!) Moulinex. This is, head and shoulders, the WORST Breville product I've ever used. It is underpowered, blunt, extremely poorly designed blade configuration - ham invariably gets sucked in between the oscillating blades and the whole thing just makes a pleasing buzzing noise....but it DOES NOT CUT!! I am really furious about this because I bought it as a gift for my somewhat arthritic spouse - and it was not cheap. It has the feel of something that was dreamed up by a design engineer over a weekend filled with much more interesting distractions. Breville should be ashamed of this piece of kit. It very much lets the side down.

This was a gift and we find it excellent for evenly cutting homebaked loaves of bread. But, blades not working so well after three months - we have not been able to release the blades to wash.
