Unless something has changed recently, you have to buy a slicing blade for
each thickness that you want to slice. That's in addition to the thickness
of the blade that came with the machine. For my Cuisinart processor I have
a 2 mm, 4 mm and an 8 mm blade. I think the 4 mm blade came with the
machine. This can run into money. When you buy your processor choose
carefully, a product you'll be happy with for a along time. My Cuisinart is
over twenty years old. Another important thing to consider when choosing a
processor is that you want a product where you can get replacement parts.
With heavy use parts can self destruct and need replacing. I've always been
able to find replacement parts locally for Cuisinart.

I'd look very hard at the Cuisinart before going to a Kitchenaid, or other
brand.
