I bought my first Salad Shooter at a garage sale back in 1999. It broke earlier this year and you cannot imagine how happy I was to find another on Wayfair.com. It works like the old one with perhaps a bit more power and some minor improvements to the section you push food down with. It still comes with five different cutting/slicing options. It is easy to clean and use, is obviously long lasting, and so much better than a food processor! I love mine!
