can you cut potatoes with this?

I used it to cut potatoes for au gratin potatoes. I was using baby potatoes (or sometimes called New potaoes) The feeding tube is not very wide and I needed to cut some of the potatoes down because they were too wide. The slices came out curved because of the shape of the slicer. Some small stick like slivers came out too. Of course, once baked the potato slices flattened out but it was a little tricky trying to layer them when putting together the au gratin. I also have a mandoline to slice. I like this better because all the slices just went into my colander for rinsing instead of needing to slice then put in the colander. Also, I have arthritis and sometimes can't use the mandoline. If you want to ensure all slices look flat and beautiful, then use a mandoline. If you don't mind a few wonky looking slices, this worked well. clean up was easy.
