    The product, in the report: Spiral Vegetable Slicer by Paderno/World Cuisine

    Severe laceration down the length of my fifth finger into extensor tendon that required surgery. Laceration occurred while using the Spiral Vegetable Slicer made by Paderno/World Cuisine which has NO GUARD WHATSOEVER to protect user from multiple exposed blades. User manual does not provide adequate warning other than advising that the blades are sharp. Vegetables like zucchini are fixed in a horizontal orientation onto the machine with plastic spikes that rotate the vegetable as the consumer rotates one end with a hand crank. The opposite end of the vegetable fits up against a series of triangular blades protruding toward the oncoming vegetable and another blade that works like a mandolin slicer. The device turns a zucchini into spaghetti as a hand crank is turned at one end pushing the zucchini into the array of blades. When I began turning the crank the zucchini slipped out of position and I reached to steady the zucchini and the device at the end close to the blades and probably miscalculated; the dorsal side of my fifth finger was sliced open on the triangular blades below the profile of the zucchini. My doctor advised me the machine is VERY dangerous!!!!! So many people are buying this same device and I am worried someone will loose a finger. These blades could easily be protected by a simple guard without interfering with the function of the device.
