This could have been the most useful and thorough of all the Börner V5 videos - except the photographer kept the camera on the chef’s head and didn’t show us what we need: his hands snd the mandoline! How frustrating.
The camera should have focussed a bit down so that one could have seen how he placed the vegetable on the holder and how he actually used and configured the device. As things stand, you only hear him talking - for the most part.
Tim's the best English speaking presenter when it comes to demonstrating the Borner v slicer. I also love his old video using the first borner v slicer many years ago. He's very good in the videos; clear demonstrations, unfortunately the camera in this video needs to be more focused on his slicing action rather than on his face.
WHY so much head shots!!! This is not a supermodel photoshoot, but a presentation of a kitchen device. Very, very difficult to follow! Please fix it. Otherwise the presenter did a great job.
More than 100% agree with Christian Ivanov and other viewers who complained about the same problem. Getting extremely frustrated while dying to see how things are done with the device...but getting the head shots instead!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for presenting this model. All I had found is the old white one presented but now I see the improved features like the sizable grip handle and larger rubber feet I'm sold on this one.
I've got the original orange one which comes with 3 inserts and the slicing guard. took me some time to master, but have been using it for years. cabbage shreds like a dream. Amazing piece of kit.
A product so good it sells itself! But Tim the guy presenting it is the power behind it I remember seeing him with this product at an agricultural show nearly thirty years ago it was then just called the V slicer, it just walked off the shelves he makes it look so easy and fun to use! Which it is. Great tool great salesman 👍
Just come across this. Never knew a pair of glasses was so useful slicing and dicing in the kitchen👓 How did this get released as a professional infotainment video🤔 No doubt it sold in the ones based on this editing
Love the guy doing this video. Explains everything well.However the cameraman should concentrate on his hands not his face. You are selling a slicer not makeup.
Please remake this soon with the camera focussed on the mandolin as well as the presenter. The presenter is excellent but unfortunately this video isn't.
I wanted to see the machine in action, not the presenter talking about how it works. If you need to have him in the shot at all times, move back and film both him and the mandolin at the same time.
As others have already said (albeit 2 years ago now), we couldn't see much of the mandoline being demonstrated, just the figure of the demonstrator which is a shame. Perhaps you could do another one with more shots of the device rather than the presenter?!
Specifically, you need to show how he places a veggie on the mandoline (and even how it is pre-chopped/prepped) and on the protector, as it makes a big difference in how the slice comes out.
+abwald Many thanks for your comments. You are quite right and we will address this on the new video. In the meanwhile if you are having problems in this regard do you want to have a quick look at our V1 Questions Answered video this should explain it better for you but apologies about the sound link.It can also be found on this channel. Thank you for your valued input.Regards T N Evans Ltd
Wow. This is the video I wanted to find. Too bad it's borderline useless compliments of the videography. It's a shame you focus so much on the face and not what's happening. I realize you're making a new one eventually. Just wish it was out because I'm deciding between this and the oxo in the next day or so...
When the gentleman is talking,the camera should be on the device not the gentleman. I missed seeing how his hands move, I was getting a bit frustrated.
I wish the camera was more on the equipment than the presenter. He keeps saying "this" and "that" and one has to wait for a glimpse of what he's referring to. It could have either been more equipment focused or wider angle to capture both.
I have watched the Borner 1(original?)3 and 5 vids. They are all excellent mandolins, but what are the differences or improvements for each one. Am confused which to buy.
+rustymouse Hi, Many thanks for watching. The V1(white) and V3(off white) are the similar but the V1 is slightly newer in design - it has a curve to follow the natural drop of your hand in use but they both provide the same service ie. Thick and thin slices, large and small julienne (10mm and 3mm) and large and small dice. Storage caddies or boxes are an add on extra for these models.The V5 comes in 4 different colours ( white, orange, green and red) This model gives 4 different thicknesses of slice, large and small julienne (7mm and 3mm) which also give a large and small dice. Note the large Julienne is slightly thinner than the V1, more a french fry rather than a steak chip. This model comes with a storage caddy or box which clips to the rear of the machine making it free standing. The plain slide also goes into a safe mode which acts to protect the blade in storage. Please do feel free to check out our website for more information at www.tnevansltd.co.ukI hope that helps youRegardsT N Evans Ltd
+T N Evans Ltd Thank you for the prompt reply, much clearer now. I have now been looking at the v6, stronger body and lovely to look at. Is this an update of the v5 ?. Noticed only 2 slice options tho. Sorry for the questions but want to be sure before buying. They are definitely the best I have come across. Thank you for your help.
+T N Evans Ltd just read on the Borner website, you can use the safety insert on the V6 as a medium slicer, which is good. I do not know how that works though as I thought this insert was level with the blades. Interesting...
+rustymouse Hi, No problem a pleasure to help.The V6 is a stainless steel version of the V3 but it has a smaller large Julienne blade so smaller chips 7mm not 10mm. It does come with a blade protector though and the reverse of this is a medium slice. Thus you have 3 thicknesses of slice. Also it comes with the storage caddy or box. Happy slicing! Regards T N Evans Ltd
+T N Evans Ltd Thank you once again, you have been a great help in clarifying all of this. Have checked and there is a 10mm insert as an extra for the V6 for chunky chips etc which is excellent. . Have decided to go for the steel one with the extras. Phew my head was going round in circles until you explained things. All sorted...
nice presentation, however post editing quite annoying with camera flicking between guy and equipment. if you really need to show face, just place this camera at different angle :-)
He did an excellent job of demonstrating and explaining. The photography however needs work. Most of the time when he was explaining and demonstrating how to attach, etc, the camera was on his face, not on the tool.
The demonstrator is very knowledgeable , however I agree why are you showing his head and upper body so much. We need to see the slicer and what he is doing with it.
Hi Tim, there were 3 blade inserts but the blade holder only holds two, where does the third blade get stored? I can't seem to find a place for it, only a spot to store 2 blades in the holder and the safety insert in the machine. Is there a place to store the third blade insert?
Thumbs UP to the presenter for clear instructions. Thumbs DOWN to camera man. I am watching this video to see the workings of the slicer, NOT the presenter. VERY poor camera work. Needs to go back to school in the worst way!!! I will probably purchase this in SPITE of the camera man.
He failed on the tomato part... He just pushed it away and hoped the camera man didnt see (speaking of the damned camera man FOCUS ON THE DAMNED SLICER FUCKER JEEZ...). It kind of sucks too because that seems to be the number one complaint about mandoline slicers. That the blades arent sharp enough to cut tomatoes
Many thanks for your input Mocha Tater Please note that the Borner Mandoline slices a ripe tomato perfectly thick or thin and also dices it as well. The Borner is fabulous at this job. You can see this on our 'V1 Your Questions Answered' video on this channel. Apologies about the sound being out of sync on that one. You are quite right in that most mandolins are unable to tackle Tomatoes especially if they are ripe the exception being the Borner. Happy Slicing. Regards T N Evans Ltd.
I'm a professional video producer. Couldn't agree more with regard to the head shots. Lighting needs to be better as well. Presenter is likable, but the viewer gets extremely frustrated because we want to see how you change blades, etc...not viewer friendly!!!!!
this cameraman only show old man's face not the Mandoline !.......I'm tired of watching this old man's wrinkle face not enough of Mandoline!!!!............
imisslola321 - I am tired of people who are rude online! This man is not an old man, he is in working age. Besides, he is obviously good at what he does, he does an excellent job at demonstrating this mandoline. I’d rather have an experienced demonstranter than a young dude who is new at it! But, the videographer does not know what he is doing, focus should be on the mandoline, not his face!
How am I the only person to notice the action shots are of a completely different person!? It’s a black apron on the action shots, no apron on the presenter! The editing is dodgy!
Damn they still advertising this in TV likenit s new im not gonna trade em but has anyone ever noticed there good enough no neefbto over exonerate with the older version they show flash of some using it getting mush it pressing extra hard not cutting I wonder why you can see her arm muscle from use like past titanium knifes cutting is a grntal job not an executioner axe man's job pressing hard will make a whole its like they on purpose do it liken the product is not worth it just a cheap but more costly immation are they scared if they advertise honestly it won't sell just disband old or drop price simple no need to sell silver as gold ect Sorry for any mistakes my spellings attracioua as is my betraying auto corrector
Assembly and disassembly, button on side- all nonsmooth actions- cumbersome- nothing seems to fit well/smoothly. All imprints hard to read on unit- lots of arrows. Food pusher better than most w little waste. He should not demo without safety glove-
The videographer is doing such a horrible job, I could barely watch this. When the guy shows something, he keep filming the guy’s upper body! The only thing he does NOT show, is what this video is about - the V5 mandoline! 🤬😖 Horribly annoying! I hope you never hire that guy to film for you again!
Great job with the presentation, but poor vid production. Too much head shot and not enough equipment.
+Stacie Shannon Thank you for your comments Stacie they are noted and will be implemented with our new video. Regards T N Evans Ltd

Ohh you’re soo bad !!! Lol 😂
Christian !!! Lol 😂 It wasn’t his fault it’s the knuckle head photographers . Actually it would have been better with you up there . 😉
I perfectly agree. Need to see hands on device
Yerrrrrs it's the V slicer man from 15 years ago on channel 750 on sky
Honestly, you are THE BEST PRESENTER OF BORNER - God bless you. \o/
Thank you for presenting this model. All I had found is the old white one presented but now I see the improved features like the sizable grip handle and larger rubber feet I'm sold on this one.
I've got the original orange one which comes with 3 inserts and the slicing guard. took me some time to master, but have been using it for years. cabbage shreds like a dream. Amazing piece of kit.
I still have the original white set and it's still razor sharp! One of the best products I've ever had.
A product so good it sells itself!
But Tim the guy presenting it is the power behind it I remember seeing him with this product at an agricultural show nearly thirty years ago it was then just called the V slicer, it just walked off the shelves he makes it look so easy and fun to use! Which it is.

Thanks heaps, it was like a jigsaw puzzle on receiving this.
Great job presentation & use of the V5 Borner
Just come across this. Never knew a pair of glasses was so useful slicing and dicing in the kitchen👓 How did this get released as a professional infotainment video🤔 No doubt it sold in the ones based on this editing
The video would be 100% better if the camera showed the slicer or hand movement when you talked about it
This gentleman always makes me smile.....
Love the guy doing this video. Explains everything well.However the cameraman should concentrate on his hands not his face. You are selling a slicer not makeup.
+Lora Mastrullo We have noted your comments and are designing a new film for the New Year.Many thanks for your input LoraRegardsT N Evans Ltd

Is this a presentation of a man wearing glasses or a mandoline?
Every time he says "you just click it forward" camera is on top half of his body versus the slicer.
bought one love it
there is a black button on the side it is to adjust and dislodge the blade
As others have already said (albeit 2 years ago now), we couldn't see much of the mandoline being demonstrated, just the figure of the demonstrator which is a shame. Perhaps you could do another one with more shots of the device rather than the presenter?!

+Mrs. Aamir You can find distributers from www.boerner.de/ Hope that helps.RegardsT N Evans Ltd
love this machine. the learning curve is high but if you know this slicer it is great. i use it for slicing frozen meat, salami, cheese but it works
Who ever edited this video should look for another line of work. We don't need to see the demonstrator's face at all. Just focus on the slicer.
Not very helpful. Video of demonstrator rather than what he was doing.
Fire the camerman!!!
I would love to see what he's talking about instead it mostly his face.😖
Yes!
@@marinamelikova1758 I agree
Wow. This is the video I wanted to find. Too bad it's borderline useless compliments of the videography. It's a shame you focus so much on the face and not what's happening. I realize you're making a new one eventually. Just wish it was out because I'm deciding between this and the oxo in the next day or so...
Thanks for sharing but the camera operator focused too much on your face which caused us to miss too much of what was going on with the slicer.
Thank you. Really useful for me. I just did not know the difference between V3 and V5. Now it is all clear. ;o)
When the gentleman is talking,the camera should be on the device not the gentleman. I missed seeing how his hands move, I was getting a bit frustrated.
Don't need to see the man but the device, how it works ???? This is not a presentation of the guy but the device....
O'k i agree with many of the comments re: head shot--but his explanations are a "10". So this reviewer gives him an A-.
I wish the camera was more on the equipment than the presenter. He keeps saying "this" and "that" and one has to wait for a glimpse of what he's referring to. It could have either been more equipment focused or wider angle to capture both.

BUT can it 'core a apple'?
the only problem i have no one tells you what blade is what for
Hi Tim, there were 3 blade inserts but the blade holder only holds two, where does the third blade get stored? I can't seem to find a place for it, only a spot to store 2 blades in the holder and the safety insert in the machine. Is there a place to store the third blade insert?
One goes directly into the body at "safe position" (the one which is just flat, without blades), while the other two with blades go into the holder.
The V5 borner where can I get one
I ordered this today.
I need one that cut onions very thin
Thumbs UP to the presenter for clear instructions.

would be better if the camera focused on the machine and not on the presenter
So frustrating. I’m trying to see what he’s doing and the camera is on the man’s face and not on the mandolin.
Whats the point of a you tube video if you can't see what he is doing!!
Isn't that the guy at every state fair selling knives and vitamixes???
I’d like to see what the V slicer is doing not the face of the person demonstrating 💆🏽😕
poor camera work !!
Is this video about the slicer or the presenters face. Worst demo video ever!!!!
Why not face the video on the machine when he’s talking !??? So frustrating
Liked the machine and the person demonstrating tha machine. The camera person should be replaced.
the best I use it for frozen meat for shabu hot pot
Omgg so annoying videoing!!!! Show us the slicer not the man!

what is up with the headshots!!! its about the freakin machine...not the presenter!
wfat about meat frozen neat salami
No one needs this anymore my food processor does all this in seconds.

not a very good demonstration i can't see it properly its all the head!
Pls reply
Didn't like the video. Camera focused too much on the Chef and NOT the device.

Bad shoot.... Presenter is good...But focus of attention should be the device & not presenter
That was not helpful!
can't see what he is doing. duh.
Horrible video because they show the man's face more than the machine !!
Wtf! Did we come here to look at his fucking face or how slicer works???
Horribly done. We don't need to see this guy's face. We came to view the product.
far too much head shot and not enough tuition very poor video!
What a waste of a video. Not to the presenter. He did good. Fire that videographer though.
This guy can sell shit to a person who hates shit
worst camera operator ever!
Great for a catering kitchen but far to fiddly and messy for a domestic one,
