Get a Like-New USG at a Great Price | Limited Supply Available

I just cleaned out my cabinets and found my old USG. It's been used only a handful of times...anyone in search of one?

This is from my e-mail:

I am looking for the Ultimate Slice and Grate we used to have in the catalog for sale. If anyone has one they would like to sell to me, even if it is slightly used I would be interested in buying it. I like the older one better than the new one and want one for my daughter and sister if more than one person have them for sale. They can contact me personally at: XXXXXXXXXXXX

I took their e-mail out Carolyn - I'll PM it to you.

Janet, I have one too. So if you like you can send me her info too. (I actually have one NIB and one slightly used).

 

[janetupnorth]

OK - will do!

I also have one slightly used, but with all new blades (had those replaced on an adjustment).

I also have one if anybody is interested that is barely used and in excellent condition.

Do you think it would be a good idea to take that old one to a show now? I just can't seem to get used to the new one. I loved the way the old one cut my tomatoes nice and thin. I tried showing that feature at a show with the UM and it was a mess. My excuse was that the tomato was too ripe.

You might get by with that by saying you don't have the new one yet but...

Just keep using the UM at home and soon you'll love it. As I'm sure you've heard, tomatoes have to be firm and the skin not too tough. It also helps to slice off a piece to give it a flat bottom. One other thing, don't push on the tomato. I tell people the holder is a HOLDER not a pusher.

I take the tomato and slice off the bottom with the tomato knife. If it feels right I use the UM with the V-blade. If not I slice it with the tomato knife. I use the UM with a lot of other things and I'd rather not have a problem with it at a show.

Great Tips!! I will do that, cutting it before putting it in there might solve the problem!! I hope I can get to that point (where I love it) so that I can offer it with confidence. Thank you.

Ok, ok.......I've had a few people IM/email me that they had one, but by the time I got the message and replied, they were all gone. :cry:

If anyone STILL has the USG (NOT the current one, the previous version), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know.

I am not sure if everyone knows this but there is a few videos that show you how to use the new UM. My new consultant was having problems with hers and we met up in a mall to work on it together (it was half way between our homes). She brought the UM, some potatoes, onion and cucumber, knife, and cutting board. We worked together and she left loving it.

Follow the other hints and check out those videos. I bet that will help.
