5.0 out of 5 stars Works well, makes great sausage, easy to clean., November 22, 2009

Pros: This item works beautifully. It makes lovely ground meat. The venison sausage I made with it has been getting rave reviews. It is very easy to operate. I operate it for at least 45 minutes at a time and have had no problems with jamming. I do use kitchen shears to cut the meat into chunks before grinding it, so it does not contain long ligaments that could wind around the mechanism.

In addition to how easy the machine is to assemble and operate, I was surprised at how easily this stainless steel grinder can be cleaned. I've always wanted a good meat grinder, but I have dreaded the thought of cleaning it when finished. I ran a piece of bread through the grinder when finished as the manufacturer suggested, and the bread cleaned out nearly all of the goop. After that, washing, drying, and lightly oiling were easy.

Cons/Miscellaneous: It is not quiet. I use earplugs when operating this grinder. In addition to earplugs, you'll probably want to have a bottle brush on hand for cleaning it.

Overall: I love it. Even more, I love eating the food I make with it. A good buy.

This meat grinder works beautifully, VERY easy to assemble and to take apart to wash, everything goes right in the diswasher and cleans up great. Hve ground, beef, chicken and turkey so far and have made the most delicious low fat low calorie dishes ever! Even made dog food for our Doggies with chicken. No mess at all. Get this one if you are just starting out. Will probably upgrade in the next year to a larger unit since we are so pleased with the results. going to make vegetable and potato sausage as soon as casings arrive.

First off, I want to rate Amazon's service. My grinder came missing the coarse cutting disc and they FedExed me a new box overnight. Outstanding service. I ran it for the first time today and ground up beef to make beef jerky.

Some might complain about the sound, but it packs a 550 watt motor. It won't be soft and weak. This is a workhorse. I noticed that the grind housing rocks a bit back and forth during grinding, but it grinds effortlessly so it must not be a big deal. Cleaning and assembly is a piece of cake.

This is a great addition to any kitchen as you don't really know what's in ground beef at the store. I read a NY Times article which exposed that most ground beef isn't inspected. I'll be grinding my beef thank you very much.

I was debating between this model and the Waring MG100. The Waring has good reviews, but saving $10 and getting a stronger motor made sense to me and it was worth it.

GREAT GRINDER!
