Only the Benriner is worthwhile under &50.

Unless you can find a closeout, or second hand store.

Benriner sells a regular and a super. I was thinking the regular, but
here's a super for $49.99:

If there is a local Asian stores nearby, check to see if they stock the
Benriner mandolines. IIRC, the 'regular' one was about US$20 or so.
It's not often the Benriner in my home gets used, but it's fantastic to
have. I think I'd rather have the 'large' (super?) Benriner, but that
wasn't an option at the local Asian store in my area.

We're getting ready to move south, and a lot of kitchen items have to go
in the name of downsizing.

(Only to an RFC name I recognize): If you want a Bron, *very* lightly
used, for $50 + shipping, let me know.

Take it! That's only 1/3 the price of a new one.

We have the OXO V blade mandoline and like it. $42.99 at Amazon.

It received very good grades in Cooks Illustrated.
Don't buy a used one. The blades give out.

Benriner. We bought it on impulse about 8 years ago for $20 or something.
