Title: Falls apart and breaks easily
Product review: I really wanted to like this bread slicer, since the price is so reasonable and it is attractive. The first problem was that the front piece of acrylic came loose and fell out, multiple times. We used cellophane packaging tape to fix that. The second problem was the first slicing guide tab snapping off. We think this happened because the guide is far too wide for a standard 2 pound bread machine loaf sliced with a 10 inch bread knife. When another tab broke we started looking for a better bread slicer, and found the Presto Bread Slicing Guide Model 08615, which is made to fit bread machine loaves. There is one for 64.95 on Amazon, but I found a gently used one on the mother of all auction sites for less than $25. It is sturdy, constructed in one piece, easy to clean, and is the right size for bread machine loaves. We can use either a regular 10 inch bread knife or an electric knife without bumping into the tabs on the backside of the guide.
