You've tried to compensate for the housing having a cone nozzle by putting a coned piston on the stuffer (so there is less meat left in the stuffer when done). The effect of the coned piston is that it exerts a sideways force on the meat and the result is that the meat is extruded out past the piston due to the large clearamce between the piston and the housing. I've replaced the piston cone with a flat design and have a lot less meat squeezing past the piston.

Also, I have broken the medium size stuffing tube and can't find a replacement. Most other manufacturers offer replacement and the option to purchase stainless steel tubes. Are you planning to offer such replacements?

If there would have been a choice of no stars I would have chosen that.

The press looks good in pictures, but the practical design is not good.

The nozzles do not fit properly, they do not attach to the press in a secure manner. The press ram does not fit into the meat cylinder tightly enough.

Therefore, the press meat(s) squeeze out improperly through unintended gaps, making a big mess.

The unit will also need to be mounted to a board, or a table/counter top to allow the proper leverage to push the ram through.

I was using it for venision and the meat would not go through the funnels. It just squeezed out of the sides where the funnels attached to the grinder, or backed up into the feeder, not matter how fine it was ground. In addition, This stuffer had no small funnels for the link-size sausage. Also, it was nearly impossible to get them due to the size requirements.

Do yourself a favor and don't consider this at all.
