Great meat grinder. Gets the job done well. I love that it is stainless steel. Just be careful because the blade is not stainless steel so keep it dry. Clean up can be difficult but you can use a Q-tip for the holes of the meat grinder and a spare toothbrush to get those corners and edges. Freshly ground meat tastes really good.

Also, consider grinding bread after you grind your meat. It'll help push the last bit out to maximize the meat you get and minimize any waste. I got the tip from TV. Not sure if I'm allowed to say the name of the show.

Go to the manufacturer's website and you will be able to find the specs for this product. The fact that is stainless steel, makes it much more sanitary, especially when working with raw meats, plus it will not rust like the other models, therefore the maintenance on it is minimal besides the obvious cleaning.

I bought this grinder, so I will address the size issue, it is plenty big for any home grinding job that you need, no worries there. BUT, BUYER BEWARE, the blade & the chopping plate (the round thing with the little holes that the meat comes out of) are not, I repeat NOT STAINLESS STEEL. And let me tell you, they rust like you wouldn't believe. It's too bad, I was hoping for a grinder that I could just wash & let air dry. This is not the one.

I bought recently this product and I have to say that it is working fine. I tried it with pork, beef, bread, onion and pepper and it is doing fine. It is heavy solid made product from stainless steel. However the knife and the grinder itself are catching rust, so probably they are not a stainless steel parts. For this reason I dry these parts after I wash the machine. As the product is cutting well everything I put inside I guess I shouldn't complain. I didn't try it for sausages yet, so I can't comment if it is doing a good job there. In genereal I consider the product as a good buy.

I like my purchase very much! The meat grinder is made totally of stainless steel except plastic parts. No rust at all! But you have to clean it nicely at the beginning since other metals (giving rust) are left from machining the grinder. The size is perfect. My palm fits inside, so it is very easy to wash the grinder after use. I highly recommend this product.

Overall, this product was a good buy. The construction is solid and rugged. The best part is that I don't need to plug it in to make it work! As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, the unit is not entirely of stainless steel. You have to be sure to pat the cutter head and plate dry, or they will rust. If I were to change anything, I would want- at least one other grinding plate of a different size, and a taller design that would let the user place a deeper bowl in front of the unit.

This product has gaps between the moving parts, which make grinding very frustrating and almost impossible. In order for the blade to cut/chop/mince/grind it needs to make contact with the screen. The only way to do that, is to push in while you crank, so I returned mine and will purchase a better product. Stay away from this thing unless you plan on having both hands on it at all times to make sure the blade makes contact with the screen. A waste of time and money - period!

Bought this item to make our own hamburgers. This product is simple, sturdy, easy to clean and considerably cheaper and easier to use than any accessory of kitchen appliances. The only part that is not stainless steel (an this is the only flaw) is the perforated plate of that the meat goes through.
Anyway, all in all, a great product for grinding meat and vegetables for burgers and sausages. Now I know what I eat, because we make our own burgers, control fat and so on.
I can only recommend this product. By the way, shipping and everything were also great!

The knife (blade) was dull. The rest of the machine probably works great - but since the main function is to grind meat with those blades, it's difficult to tell. Order a "Stainless Steel knife, #10 grinder". You might not find this on amazon.

The "C" part of the clamp is only 1/2 inch deep, if you have a decorative edge on your counter (bullnose etc) greater than that the clamp will not fully catch the counter. Since the clamp only opens to 1 1/2", you can't put a piece of plywood on your counter and clamp onto plus the counter. The only solution is to get a couple of C-clamps and clamp a piece of plywood overhanging the counter, then clamp the grinder to that.

Other than that, it seems very sturdy and well made. You can coat the knife and the grinding plate with mineral oil to prevent rusting (vegetable oil will eventually turn gummy and rancid).

My husband and I have been wanting to make that ham salad like we used to have when we were kids. Now that we have this grinder we can do it. We made our first batch last weekend and it tastes wonderful! Once we figured out how to get it ready to use we were off and running. It cleans well with hot water and we have stored it away properly for use next time. (You have to put some cooking oil on it so the gears don't get stiff. Love it!
