Engineered by Waring, this versatile meat grinder helps you ensure that the food you cook is as fresh as possible. Suitable for home use, the machine grinds beef for tacos, turkey for burgers, and pork for sausage, as well as non-meat items like vegetables and fruit. Powered by a 150-watt motor, the grinder has a durable die-cast metal hopper and brushed stainless-steel housing. It comes with three separate cutting plates to let you set the grind for the task at hand. Use the fine plate for baby food and hamburger, the medium plate for relishes and soup meat, and the coarse plate for vegetables or chunky ground. Operation of the grinder is simple, and the clearly marked on/off panel includes a reverse function that helps retrieve clogged food. The reverse toggle must be held down so you cannot accidentally leave it engaged. Waring also includes a small and a large sausage attachment for transferring blended meat and spices to sausage casings. Although the grinder may not have the hard-wearing qualities of all-metal models, the plastic used in its construction is both spare and durable. Waring includes a plastic food pusher and a recipe booklet, as well as a 5-year motor warranty and a 1-year warranty on the appliance. Cutting plates must be washed by hand. --Emily Bedard

Very good buy,
This review is from: Waring MG100 300-Watt Meat Grinder, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
I noticed some negative customer reviews for this item; its due to lack of food experience. This machine works very well, however, you do have to compensate for the fact that it's a home machine and it has a small feeding tube. You cannot put your average sized 1 inch/1 inch cube into the feeding tube. Yes, it will fit, but no it wont do a good job. Think about it, the big industrial machines take cubes that size. You also cannot run the machine without a steady flow of meat or have it running on empty. One of the reviews said that the machine burned out on the first try. Probably an overexageration but these machines will burn out if you run it on empty of do not keep a steady flow going through the feeding tube.
I have been using a hand grinder for several months and although it made my arms look good, the job was really really tough and a lot of waste...due to the huge auger. This machine was a blessing; just be reasonable, and calm about using it, and the job will come out perfectly. Happy grinding and cheers to any and all who are out there honing and preseving the craft. MPappas

This review is from: Waring MG100 300-Watt Meat Grinder, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
I read many bad reviews here after I purchased my grinder. I hadn't used it yet so I considered taking it back that day. I had a deer hanging, so I didn't have time wait for a week for the outfitter model I was really wanting at that time. After reading some of the reviews I was dreading a disappointment. I used it, and guess what? IT WORKED GREAT. I ground 20 pounds of deer meat and never cleaning the knife once. I didn't have to really put any pressure on the stuffer either, as i had to basically push hard the whole time with my old one. Several comments were made about the knives and plates not being stainless I solved that problem witha 10 dollar bill. This grinder takes #5 plates and knives which can be purchased in a stainless product for 5 dollars each from any major outfitter, i purchased a stainless knife a stainless medium plate mine from Gander Mountain.
In summary: people chill out, this ain't a 300-400 class grinder obviously its a 100 dollar unit, its not going to grind a 900 pound cow in an hour or chew up bones. For the price point you won't find a grinder that will perform any better, most are all 2 pounds a minute until you are ready to spend about 200 bucks. If you aren't able to justify the 200-300 dollars for the outfitter style units, then buy this grinder as its just fine for someone who isn't running a meat processing shop on the side. I suspect those who didn't like it had the blade in backwards perhaps? many first time grinders wouldn't know better than to leave it facing the auger, that makes it chop the meat? Just make sure your knife is facing the plate, that is the only way you are going to get it to work as designed. After using it and grinding my deer meat for the season, I am sort of glad i didn't spend the other 150 on the bigger outfitter model. I never waited much on the grinder at all, just plopping in the chunks, and occasionally tapping it with the pusher. Just keep your chunks small, don't attempt to feed a huge chunk down the hatch, it isn't engineered for that, and cutting the meat into 1 inch chunks will allow you to trim more fat anyway.

A good value,
This review is from: Waring MG100 300-Watt Meat Grinder, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
This grinder performs very well for the prices it's been selling for. When I saw this one, it was clear I had been looking at other units that were to high in price for a home unit and for my needs. I'm getting the same grind quality seen from a professional unit at the market. Granted it is not fast, but it's fine for me. You almost never see a grinder at any price with 3 coarsness disks. Unfortunately the disks are not stainless steel, but units costing $499.00 often don't have stainless either. Also, this grinder has a reverse feature which you rarely see at any price.
Other posters put down this unit, but if you use it as intended, it will make you happy. Dave
