Question: Was the Westmark egg slicer you purchased from Amazon since 12/06/2012 made by Westmark in Germany?
Document: I purchased this all metal, Made in Germany, egg slicer. It is perfect. It will last my entire life time. It's getting difficult to find devices not made of plastic, and not made in China. This egg slicer fulfills both!
Product received was not as described. This egg slicer was not by Westmark. It was made by Wincare. It was not made it Germany. It was made in China. The UPC code on the box was covered by a label that has a UPC code and the words: X000DJBBZ7 Westmark W1020 Egg Slicer. NEW. This label partially concealed a sticker with the words "MADE... CHI" Included are pictures of the product I received.
I thought I'd post a review of this product since I saw a few negative comments. It is not a strawberry slicer, it's an EGG SLICER, and it should last forever as long as you don't try to slice anything that puts more strain on the wires than they were designed for. Too much stress can also stretch the wires (COMMON SENSE). It is more expensive, yes, but this one is made in Germany and it's not even close to the others out there which are the usual Chinese Goushi.
I bought many egg slicers before just to find the metal threads break after few times of using them. Honestly, I didn't believe that I should be paying a lot for such thing which I don't use except with eggs. But after I saw the Westmark egg slicer on Amazon and after knowing that the manufacturer is German, I decided to pay extra dollars and try it out. Now i'm really more than happy with my egg slicer especially after having used it with mushrooms and experienced how fast and reliable it is.
I haven't used it as of yet...BUT, as usual, Amazon.com delivers quickly and I LOVE their free shipping over $25.00. I do quite a bit of shopping with them because of it. AND.....I always end up buying more because of it. Back to the review of the egg slicer. It's made just like the good old fashioned ones that our parents used to have.
I tried slicing hard boiled eggs by hand using a simple, sharp kitchen knife. I did a horrible job, no matter how hard I tried. I saw this egg slicer on Amazon with glowing reviews, so I had to give it a try.Excellent product and very well made. I have been using it lightly for several months now with no issues. Washing it is easy, I only find a little residue from the eggs, but it's easily cleaned. -1 Star for the price.
We purchased the slicer less than a year ago. Recently it has been leaving gray marks on the eggs. I called Amazon and they said to contact La Prima Shops (the vendor). I did send an e-mail and have not received a reply--so much for their vaunted customer service. Called Amazon again and the rep said to return it for full credit, very nice. But what about the quality issue?
very well made and easy to clean. so far haven't had anything stick to this egg slicer. It is very easy to use and with its heavy duty frame you don't have to worry about your food flipping out everywhere and the cuts are very nice. I really like the westmark w1020 egg slicer.
I have arthritic hands and wrists, and could no longer operate my old egg slicer. I ordered the Westmark, and it was even nicer than it appeared in the online picture. Very solid and well-made, and quite easy for me to operate. Quick and easy to wash, too. I can make egg salad again!
I was suckered into the cheap price of another egg slicer and i got what i deserved it broke on the first use. Pay the extra and buy this German made slicer, I just sliced 8 pounds of black olives and it worked like a champ. If it doesn't say Westmark Duplex your not getting the best.Chef Steve
Answer: Yes, it was. And that's one of the reasons I bought it: I didn't want some cheap knockoff from China. It's really solid, and I love it.
