So helpful for slicing sourdough bread! We’ve used it some for meat, but for the most part, it’s used
for bread and it does an amazing job. Love it!

Perfect!
The Ritter was the third slicer I tried after using a Zassenhaus, and a commercial electric slicer. The first two were definitely n ot what I was looking for. Although the Zassenhaus seemed like a good fit, there were technical issues that need to be resolved before it could even compare to the Ritter. For example, when slicing, the Ritter has a bar on the backside that holds the bread near the actual body, so the handle does not catch it and rip it as it comes out of the back. The other one does not and ends up ruining countless slices of bread. I also found the Ritter to operate much smoother. I would recomment this manual slicer to anyone looking to evenly slice homemade bread, etc.
Thank you for your detailed review of our Ritter Hand Bread & Food Slicer AMANO 5! We are glad to hear that it was the perfect fit for your needs and that it outperformed other slicers you have tried. We take pride in our product's design and functionality, and we appreciate your recommendation to others. Happy slicing!

I receiced my order in a super fast delivery time.
I had to use the bread slicer as soon as I received it.
It does the best job at slicing my sour dough bread.
It cuts nice even slices and doesn't even look like jamming up.
Using the bread slicer is effortless and quicker than using the powered one that I already have.
I have been craving spätzle for months now , knew how to make them but couldn’t find the proper cutting board I was used to . Finally … I found a goldspatz that saved my life .
Delivery was super-quick, with item perfectly packaged. Item itself is of the highest quality and it will last for many years. Delighted to at last find a company that doesn't import disappointing, inferior items from China. Instructions included were useful and clear. Cannot recommend Loewen-Meta highly enough - they are excellent and German!
It's expensive, but it's well made, easy and pleasant to use, works great, and solves my problem of how to keep my knives sharp. Packaging and delivery were also top notch. 5/5
This has revolutionized our kitchen. My toddler and husband are extremely picky about their bread and toast. This makes is hard when baking all our own breads. With this slicer I can make uniform sandwhichs and toast that satisfy my oddly picky bread eaters. I love it - and it looks cool in the kitchen too
Great mill set, I think that zassenhaus has the best grind mechanism out there. Put 3 coats of olive oil on them, that really brought out the color and luster of the wood. I can order and in 5 working days, have them from Germany to my front porch in Tennessee. Great logistics, awesome web site.They take great pride in their work. Thanks
Wow... this bread slicer is all that it's cracked up to be. Slices bread like a breeze... it's heavy, sturdy and well made. I can imagine this will last forever. There is one little thing they could improve....and that's the suction cups on the bottom. They slide around a bit when attached to a stone bench top. When you try to pull it straight up, it sticks.... but when you're slicing, it moves around all over the place. An amazing machine, but it's pretty expensive so they should really look at this. I still highly recommend for slicing bread though. I bake mu own sourdough and it slices like a dream. I love it.
The mill is very handsome. Well crafted and sturdy. People who come into my kitchen marvel at its beautiful workmanship. We’ve been grinding Flint corn in it and it’s fantastic. My wish would be a manual in English. That would talk more about the grinding settings. That would be very helpful. Otherwise it’s a fantastic addition to our kitchen.
These headrests are the most comfortable things I’ve found for reclining sauna use - I got both the cedar one and the plastic that comes with the cover. I’ve tried wooden angled headrests and wooden backrests but the HaLu 4-point sauna headrests are far superior.

I have not had much opportunity to use this nutcracker, except on walnuts. It seems a bit more challenging to use than my old one, though I am not sure why. It might be the specific type of walnuts I am trying to crack, not sure. But overall I am pleased. It is well-built and sturdy, which I like. I feel it will last me a long time. And I would recommend this to others.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our 'Nutcracker Estetico' Monopol Edition. We are glad to hear that you appreciate its solid and strong build. We apologize if you find it a bit challenging to use, and we suggest trying it on different types of nuts to see if it makes a difference. We are confident that with its durability, it will last you a long time. Thank you for recommending it to others. We appreciate your support.
Perfect size, as I live in my van. I make lots of Indien chapati & paratha. There is nothing like fresh ground flour.
Thank you so much, Ruth, for your lovely review! We’re delighted to hear that the MANUS 1 is the perfect fit for your van life and that you’re using it to make delicious chapati and paratha. For anyone curious: chapati is a soft Indian flatbread made without yeast, and paratha is a layered or stuffed flatbread, often pan-fried. Both taste even better with fresh, homemade flour — so we completely understand your enthusiasm!
Wishing you many flavorful meals and joyful moments on the road!
