It just doesn’t look like sixty-bucks—especially compared to the competition where I see more metal and less plastic.

RayFThe huge metal ones drift and tend to need to be adjusted every few cuts, especially after they get a little older.
These are fixed blades with set screws for depth adjustment, they won't move unless you want them to. Also the blades are the most important part of any mandoline, and Benriners hold a very sharp edge for a very long time.

RayFThe only real downside is that Benriners don't have the wavy blades you need to make Gaufrettes (aka waffle fries/crosscut fries.)
And previously they only had the narrower sizes, but they've remedied this with the Jumbo range. I'd advise to get the wider ones if you're in the market for a mandoline, it's not that much more expensive, and you'll be able to get larger potatoes and stuff sliced without having to trim it down.
