How do I chop dates with my sumoslicer
Not recommended.
First they must be de-pipped and whilst doing this it is easier to chop with a small sharp knife.
Good day, are you able to cut tomatoes with this ?
Not Recommended. Easier to chop with a sharp Knife. Soft fruits tend to clog the blades
I have not tried but agree with crowmountain. too soft. unless you want to use the tomatoes in cooking.
How do I slide slicer to the base
How do I put it together
Sorry Denise, I have a Borner V Slicer and still pondering, if I will buy the Kleva Sumo Slicer. My Borner can do everything and do not want to get rid of it, as there is still a lot of years left - ...
Read morestill very sharp and still looks quite new. Maybe, one day, I will get one. Cheers.I have purchased a Sumo Slicer and I can't secure on my bench, it just doesn't lock.I have slightly moist the surface and still no success.
Hello Gloria ! I have not had that problem with my slicer or any other problem for that matter.Make sure your bench is flat and clean and dry.When you turn the locking mechanism clockwise to lock it t...
Read moreo your bench apply some pressure to the slicer so that it sits firmly on the bench as you turn the locking mechanism.It is important that the rubber seal is clean and dry also to allow the ' suction' to work.You may need to clean your seal with something like vinegar if it has a film on it which is stopping the suction from working.My slicer attaches very strongly to my bench and has not failed once.Good luck, remember it is important everything is clean just as in attaching a GPS to a car windscreen.Hope my comments help - Ronald Moore.If you use vinegar, use that protectant for car rubber and vinyl, otherwise the seal will perish.
Make sure there isn't a thin plastic suction cup protector covering the suction cup on the base
Also, someone said there is a 'Manual Sheet' - none in the one I bought.... ?
Do you have it online?
Just received it and cannot get it to adhere to the bench. What is wrong?
I found that if you very slightly dampened the surface where you want it to stick it would adhere well.
That’s because they are rubbish, wait till you use it, then you’ll have something to whinge about LOL
Matt, whineing is not enough. Please say what you think or know to be the problems.
Then an informed decision can be made

How do I fit the handle on
Hi Cherryl,
The handle of the Sumo Slicer screws directly into the back of the clear hopper. Please give us a call on 02 9387 4100 or email [email protected] and we will be happy to assist you with this further!...
Read more Thank you.We cannot get the sumo slicer to stick to our lame ex bench top which makes a two person job all of a sudden, I have read a few other comments with the same problem and then some saying it works fine
Leave the top off and make sure the arrows are not aligned. With little pressure then lock the arrows together, going from right to left.
Put top part on after it has adhered.
Hope this helps.
How do I make zucchini noodles woth the Sumo slicer
Hi Karen,
Unfortunately the Kleva Sumo Slicer is not designed to spiralize vegetables, it can however create short zucchini pasta style pieces which can be created using the coarse grater drum.
How do I order this? I bought one at the Royal winter fair and am happy with it and would like to purchase for family.

How does the sumo slicer slice onions. All I seem to be able to do is shred it.
Hi Wally,
Thanks for your question....
Read more The slicer blade works best on hard fruit or vegetables, a hack we have found to easily slice onions is to place them in the freezer or cool section of the fridge for an hour beforehand. This should ensure the onions are cleanly sliced without any difficulty. Please let us know how you go with it!Cannot get the "sliding" hopper off but was easy to click in ??
Can somebody help.
It does not slide off by unlocking base and using thumbs as suggested by Lucy J. (Kleva Range)
My experience? "bang" it off! and just hope it doesn't break in time! For this and other reasons, I returned mine for a full refund
I guess it's possible it's a faulty unit, (which you surely should be able to get replaced - consumer rights etc), but if you take the handle off, and shift the locking device to "unlock" it definitel...
Read morey should come off. Have you looked at the Sumo Slicer online tutorials on the klevarange website? James covers a lot of the problems people may have. I gather you have already spoken to somebody at Kleva?How do I get the plastic sliding top piece to slide off when finished The base released from bench now i can’t get top piece off
Dear Customer,
Thank you for your enquiry. If the base is unlocked you can normally take the hopper off just pushing with your thumbs. ...
Read more Please give us a call at your earliest convenience in order to get this sorted for you. We can be contacted on 029387 4100. My apologies for any inconvenience. I wish you a lovely weekend! Kind regards, CazMany thanks Iwill call you .Just to give you a heads up The wheel that locks and unlocks won’t budge I think the plastic sleeve is stopping it ?
@Lucy from Kleva ............It does not just push off easily using thumbs - you have to literally bang it off and hope that in time, this action does not break the product.
