I know there a lot of fabulously talented cooks here. I'm not one of them. But I do occasionally try.
This may sound silly, but I have trouble slicing potatoes, vegetables, etc. consistently enough to fry or sauté with good results. I always end up with some burnt, some undercooked. Although I'm very good when working with wood or metal, I fail abysmally when attempting some simple cooking projects.
On a recent cruise through Amazon I came across the "mandoline". This looks like an answer to my prayer:

Do any of you culinary wizards use such a device? If so, what do you recommend? If not, any suggestions?
