Linden Sweden Osti Cheese Cutter, Black



Osti Cheese Slicer and Server


Ordered two of these - the cheese wire broke on both w/in 1 wk!
Years,ago, I bought a cheese wire cutter just like this from pampered chef. After 10 years of very frequent use, the wire broke, and pampered chef no longer carries this model.

So I went to amazon.com and found the Osti, which looked much like my old one. I have many different kinds of cheese cutters, but this style just cuts such nice slices for sandwiches for the husband's lunch. I was so excited to find something like what I had bought years ago, that I ordered two.

Very dissatisfied as that was only a month ago, and now, neither of them work. The wires snap easily. The first one broke the first time I used it. The wire is not up to the task of passing through a normal block of cheddar cheese. The other one lasted four time before it broke.

At $17 a pop plus shipping, well I guess I will go to my local kitchen store or bed and bath and see if they have something. These were a BUST.

Even if I buy replacement wires, I will pay shipping...

Huzzah!
I've finally found a "back up" to the original I've had for almost 15 years.... I was suprised to find them on the internet.... but very very pleased!
Now I can give them as presents to some of the younger chef's in training I know..... fantastic!
