Amazon.com Review
This food mill is an excellent tool for making homemade baby purees from fibrous ingredients, such as peas, dried apricots, or prunes, as it pushes through the smooth pulp and leaves the fiber behind. In addition, it strains seeds and skin from tomatoes to make soup or sauce and makes the fluffiest mashed potatoes. Made of high-quality stainless-steel, this tomato/vegetable mill has three heavy-duty blades with fine, medium, and coarse holes to accommodate many different foods. After inserting the proper blade, you can load up to 2.1 quarts of puree ingredients into the mill. Then simply rotate the handle to push fruits and veggies through the strainer with the paddle. The food mill has three non-slip legs that allow it to rest on any pot or bowl with a 9-inch or smaller diameter. For mess-free clean-up, the mill is dishwasher-safe. --Cristina Vaamonde
Product Description
Using the food mill unlocks the aromas and textures of fresh vegetables and herbs, enhancing the flavor of any dish. The 2-Quart capacity is ideal for preparing fresh tomato or pesto sauce, applesauce, mashed potatoes, peas or yams. This larger size is ideal for home or restaurant use. Health conscious parents can use this food mill to create their own baby purees that are chemical and preservative free. It includes 3 different sized attachments for mashing, milling or ricing. The food mill is supported by foldable legs. The legs help to stabilize the food mill over pots or bowls. A quick turn of the large crank handle forces food through the blades and directly into a pot or bowl. The entire mill is made of stainless steel and is dishwasher safe..

5.0 out of 5 stars
economical and easy to use,
This review is from: MIU France Stainless Steel Tomato/Vegetable Mill (Kitchen)
Very easy to put together and easy to use. Three types of blades makes this food mill versatile for straining tomato seeds to mashing potatos. The price is unbeatable, the size is convenient for single person or small family. The construction is sturdy and simple, which i like because it means less parts to break, put together, and clean. The food mill is great because it purees and strains the food at once. No more fighting with strainers or losing your purees through transfering them between food processer and strainer. I decided to buy this foodmill after realizing a decent sized chinois strainer with pestle (yes, sometimes you have to buy the pestle separately) can cost the same and often times more. This mill has been a real pleasure to use and I am grateful of the investment.
NOTE: THE BLADE-PLATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MILL IS CONCAVED AND SHOULD POINT TOWARD YOU, IE, POINT UPWARD. this way the rotating blade will slide snugly over the plate. It should be very easy to turn. If you find the rotating blade hard to turn, or hard to fit into place, you've probably have the 'blade-plate' upside down. Device only have 3 pieces when put together, not too many variation as to how to put it together...

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for baby food, soups, pasta sauce,
By Barry Burek (USA, Italy, Serbia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MIU France Stainless Steel Tomato/Vegetable Mill (Kitchen)
Everyone where I live in central Italy uses this thing, called a "passatore"; means you can "pass" the vegetables through this mill. With scandals about homogenized baby food abounding, people make their own. Great also for soups (passato), making PASS-ta sauce (kidding, but it removes the tomato seeds nicely). Sorry to hear about the injury, as the other reviewer points out, put the grater disk round side up, commmon sense, the sharp side should come in contact with the vegetables; it's not easy to get the blades into the notches on the base becasue the spring is tight, that may be where she hurt herself, but it's not hard either! I think there's a picture on the box. Anyway, nice stainless steel, as easy to clean as a food processor, more expensive than the Italian ones (aroud $5!) but it's bigger and much more sturdy and the stainless is a plus. Try it!

This review is from: MIU France Stainless Steel Tomato/Vegetable Mill (Kitchen)
I'd never used a food mill before, so I can't compare this to anything else, but it worked very well for me. We used it to prepare food for our baby when she started solids. It didn't come with any instructions, but was simple enough to figure out. It was very easy to take it apart and put it in the dishwasher. A very good buy, especially when you look at the price of commercially prepared baby food, which, more often than not, has additives that aren't good for your baby.
