Mirro Stainless Steel Foley Food Mill 2 QT., September 16, 2005
I replaced my original 35 year old Foley Mill with the new model. On the plus side, it is greatly improved by the fact it is now made in stainless stain. On the minus side, the handle is no longer solid but rather an "open" handle and I find it now difficult to hold. If the new handle would not be a problem for anyone else, than I would give it 5 stars.

My kitchen is incomplete without a Foley food mill!, December 20, 2007
I was raised with a foley food mill in the kitchen. Mom bought me one when I first started housekeeping, as I did my daughter and Son also. The old ones rusted up, but I see now they are made of stainless steel, which is great.I never put mine in a dishwasher, but my daughter did without thinking, therefore it got rusty. I ordered two, as they are hard to find, a little on the expensive side, but Amazon gave the best price. The new models are dishwater safe, and will never rust as they are made of stainless steel. Great product, Iwouldn't be able to make cranberry sauce, applesauce, seed tomatoes, canning etc., without it!

Back to basics, June 18, 2008
Much to my surprise these old Foley food mills are still being made! This beauty is made out of stainless steel. Solid, easy to care for and gorgeous. The 2 1/2 quart one I have fits a smaller prep bowl, but I knew that it would when I ordered it. The sweep arm on the bottom comes off for cleaning with an easy twist of the nut that attaches it. The blade inside the food mill is easy to operate and to clean. It runs smoothly over the grate giving you a nicely textured dish. The rotating knob on the handle that turns the blade is a real plus, no blisters. I will admit to using a kitchen towel to hold the handle attached to the food mill because I prefer a solid handle rather than the loop style this food mill has. This is the kind of appliance our grandmothers and mothers used and we all remember their great potato soup. When you get back to basics, you want something easy to use, good looking and easy to clean AND that stores in a cupboard rather than its own garage. So, start with a Foley Food Mill.
