How to Choose a Meat Slicer

Learn about the key factors to consider when choosing the right commercial meat slicer for your business.

Here are the keys factors to consider when selecting the right commercial meat slicer for your business. First, consider how frequently you plan to use your slicer. A light-duty slicer can operate up to 2 hours per day. It cannot be used for cheese slicing.

A medium-duty slicer can operate up to 4 hours per day. It allows for 1-2 hours of cheese slicing per day. It offers more power and durability at an affordable price point.

Finally, a heavy-duty slicer can be used all day for both meat and cheese slicing. It offers the best in terms of strength, durability, and consistency.

Next, decide if you need an automatic or manual slicer. Automatic units move product back and forth against the blade for safe, high-volume slicing. They deliver superior precision while also saving you time and labor.

Manual units are what most businesses are used to, requiring an operator to manually slide product across the blade for slicing.

Other factors to consider when choosing a meat slicer include horsepower—consider that ½ HP is necessary to slice cheese—blade size, and ease of sanitation. Now you can confidently choose the right commercial meat slicer for your business.

Terrible new cheap product. Too expensive and cheap plastic parts. What happened to Berkel ? How much do you have to spend not to get junk.

Exceptional quality and design. Easy, well thought out disassembly for cleaning. It is very heavy so having it's own space will make your life easier. I've read another review complaining of excessive plastic use. Can't see how this complaint could apply to this model (Berkel B12-SLC). Plastic is used but only on the handles and control knobs. These plastic components are heavy and durable. (Anything in red on the pics is plastic. Those handles and knobs are very heavy grade. Only one plastic component is lighter gauge, that being the guard around the sharpener.) Our only complaint with Berkel is in regard to their packaging. Berkel ships in a greatly oversized box with foam pillows surrounding the fully assembled slicer. As the appliance itself is not secured to anything, there's too much room for movement.
