Manual food chopper Alligator Slicer model 2020, plastic housing, green/white

The Alligator Slicer manual food chopper model 2020 features a green and white plastic housing and a compact, lightweight design for hand-operated slicing and chopping. Intended for home kitchens where a simple, non-electric tool is preferred, this chopper uses a patented stepped blade arrangement to produce uniform slices 5 mm wide. It is suitable for a wide range of fruits and vegetables, including softer items such as tomatoes, and is designed for quick meal preparation and portioning without the need for a power supply.

Advantages

The patented stepped blade design ensures consistent, even slices by guiding food across graduated cutting levels. The manual operation makes the unit portable and quiet, while the plastic housing keeps the chopper lightweight and easy to store. The fixed blade spacing delivers repeatable 5 mm slices that simplify preparation of salads, garnishes and layered dishes. Because it requires no electricity, the Alligator Slicer is usable anywhere and is low-maintenance: blades are exposed for effective cutting but the simple construction allows for easy cleaning and care.

Suitable for

• Slicing tomatoes and potatoes into uniform 5 mm slices
• Preparing cucumbers, peppers and other firm vegetables for salads
• Slicing softer fruits for toppings and desserts
• Portioning ingredients for sandwiches, tarts and layered dishes

How to use

Place the Alligator Slicer on a stable, flat surface. Position the vegetable or fruit against the blades and apply steady, even pressure while moving or pressing the food through the stepped blade assembly to produce slices. For best results with rounded or soft items, stabilize the food item with one hand while guiding it through the blades with the other, taking care to keep fingers clear of the cutting area. After use, disassemble any removable parts if applicable and rinse or wash according to the manufacturer’s care instructions to remove food residue.

Usage recommendations

Use the chopper on firm, clean produce for the most consistent 5 mm slices. Cut very large items into smaller portions before slicing and avoid forcing excessively hard items to prevent damage to the blades. Always handle the blades with care during cleaning and storage.
