Vee Slicers used to cost 25 on the Shopping Channels:

You could get them for 15 at various local markets and when they were 
presenting them at the NEC or if you get the imitation ones which work just 
as well although some say the blade is a cheaper blade.

Now they're available from Woolworths and Robert Dyers for 9.99.

Yes, I think thay're JML.  I don't know if they're shite or not but most of 
the ones I've seen work exactly the same whether they're their the ones off 
the TV or not.  Did you mean shite as in the JML version is shite or that 
Vee Slicers are shite as I know a lot of people that don't use them properly 
think they're rubbis and/or dangerous.

While I haven`t seen a "real" expensive one, the JML one has no storage 
facility for the blades, and the only way to store them with any modicum 
of safety would appear to be in the original box. Getting them out of 
the box again requires a safety video in itself :-}

Other than that, the V blade is simply a stamped piece of tin, the 
"thin" setting is *too* thin, and the sliding portion seems "over" loose 
(as in the guides allow too much play). Oh, and the part with the "veg 
holding spikes" doesn`t allow dismantling to clean.

Was that in a 'JML SuperBin', by any chance?
