Every month or so, the rest of the time i brush them at home and it keeps the shedding away.<br/><br/>The tool can be a bit scary to use at first, gotta apply the right kind of pressure and a *philistin* to the art of grooming can potentially hurt the animal if they press too hard while brushing so patience is recommended. <br/><br/>My cats are use to it by now so they don't hate it, cats in general don't like to be groomed (with the sometime exception).

So shinny and so pretty, i set it up for apple julienne, oh dear.<br/><br/>1- Documentation was seriously lacking, no pictures and complicated intructions. <br/><br/>2- Inserting the julienne blade made me seriously wonder if i had it in the right hole, the blade didnt seem to fit until i gave it a good push which made me cringe.<br/><br/>3- Slicing the apple came to another challenge, after breaking it in half midway i decided to remove the apple and peel it, to no better result, The apple kept breaking or making uneven and unsteady slices.<br/><br/>4- Cleaned it, dryed it and brought it back to BB&amp;B. Bought a OXO instead for the same price.... Tue, 03 Mar 2009 23:28:26 GMT http://www.viewpoints.com/Cuisinart-Mandoline-Deluxe-Stainless-Steel-Slicer-review-d5896 Nefensis 1
