I was a little scared to try this product at first. Only because I just had a stroke and left side is paralyzed. However, I finally did use it and am amazed with this product!  It is very easy to use with only one hand. The machine is not complicated. Just put on right blade or disk (depending on what your doing) and push the button. Yes! This machine is really that easy to use and extremely easy to clean!  This is a must for every kitchen.
