Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The different layers of metal aren't stable, which means as you're cutting the layers of cake, your guides shift. As such, you wind up with slices that are perhaps more uneven than free-handing it. The one exception to this is the bottom as there's nowhere for it to collapse. So if you want layers exactly that size, you can slice a layer, remove the cake from the layer, set the cake down and slice another layer, remove the cake from the layer and set it down somewhere else to slice another, and so on....not really what it was supposed to do. It's also interesting to note that the top and bottom layers are slightly thicker than the middle ones, so if you were trying to slice a whole cake, the layers wouldn't quite be even anyway. Not unexpectedly, the knife included is flimsy, poor quality, and not very sharp at all, so you wind up squishing the cake a little with the force required to saw even a light spongecake. Overall, I was quite disappointed.
