I plan to store and use it in a narrow gap in the utility room; what is the thickness when folded, and how much laundry can be hung at once?

The laundry room or balcony space is narrow, so the situation calls for folding the drying rack and storing it in a gap. I am curious about the volume it occupies during regular storage and the actual number of towels that can be dried at one time.

Can the dish drying rack's size be adjusted and used depending on the amount of dishes or cooking space?

How is the groove carved into the bottom of the slicer used?

When seeing the groove on the bottom of the mandoline slicer, you may wonder what its purpose is.

[시모무라] 베지테리언 슬라이서 (3종 칼날 포함)
hmmm editorial answer

There is a groove that can be hooked onto the rim of a bowl, stably supporting the mandoline slicer and allowing sliced vegetables to fall directly into the bowl.

With a wide width of 12.5cm, this mandoline slicer handles even bulky vegetables in one go. Turn the dial to adjust the thickness from under 1mm up to 5mm, and rest it across a bowl using the bottom groove and silicone. The blade can be detached separately, making it easy to wash into every corner with water.

Why this product

Chosen to adjust thickness delicately and prevent wobbling during use.

  1. Wide-range thickness adjustment

    Adjustable from under 1mm up to 5mm with a dial, it handles everything from thin salad vegetables to thicker textures.

  2. Stable bottom groove design

    Equipped with non-slip silicone on the bottom and a resting groove, it does not wobble even when leaned against the rim of a bowl.

  3. Hygienic detachable blade

    The blade can be detached from the main body, allowing vegetable residue stuck in gaps to be washed away cleanly with water.

Why shouldn't I use this sharpener on the "single-edged knives" mentioned in the description?

When choosing a sharpener to sharpen kitchen knives and seeing the notice not to use it on single-edged knives, you might wonder whether the knife you use applies.

[시모무라] 프로그레이드 더블 샤프너
hmmm editorial answer

Because it has a V-shaped groove structure that sharpens both sides of the blade at the same time, inserting a single-edged knife, which is beveled on only one side, will ruin the shape of the blade.
