coupster I hear you on the cleanup hassle—it's always a chore. I've been using the Chef'sChoice 615A, and while it's not a commercial beast, it does a pretty solid job for home use. The blade is 7 inches, which might not be much bigger than what you're dealing with, but I’ve found it to be a good balance between performance and ease of handling. Cleanup is manageable once you get the routine down, but like you said, there's no way around the PITA factor with slicers. If you're looking to upgrade without going too bulky, it might be worth checking out.

Check on FB Marketplace or Craiglist for a good commercial unit like a Hobart, Berkel, Globe, Bizerba, etc. These things are HEAVY but they will last forever and are much higher quality than most home units. If you pay attention and look regularly you will probably see one for less than $300 eventually. They are a pain to move around and if you just need to slice a couple pieces of turkey for a sandwich it is a PITA but if you are going to be slicing 20-30 pounds at a time it is definitely worth it.
And yeah, cleaning them is not fun.Comment
