Cuisipro Food Mill, Silver  Product Reviews

"I bought the mill to make sauces and mash potatoes. It looks good and well made on the surface, but has ridiculous design flaws. When you turn the mill, the knob unscrews no matter what you do, so that you have to constantly screw it back on while you are trying to grind the food. This makes it virtually unsuable. Not only that, but the blades do not gather up the food, so that you have to constantly feed the food into the blade. For such an expensive item to be this poorly designed is unconscionable. I then tried another one with the Bed, Bath, and Beyond label, $50 cheaper. The knob didn't screw off, but still the blades did not grind the food. I'm going to stick with a regular food processor and an old-fashioned hand potato masher. I'm fed up with food mills."

"I make homemade marinara sauce with canned, whole plum tomatoes. I used to core them and crush them by hand. And then a $150 gift cert to our local restaurant store landed in my lap for my b-day, and now my sauce is noticeably improved as the mill keeps out most of the seeds. It also ceased me having to core the tomatoes by hand, saving lots of time and mess. I also use it for mashing potatoes, though the process is a slow and semi laborious task. The end result is worth the effort as everyone comments on how creamy and smooth they turn out. I find this "food mill" easy to clean, the handle turns easily, and the construction is of high quality. Highly recommend. "

"I tried the mill right after it arrived. To be honest the scraper is worthless. It's easier to use a spatula and more effective. The grind seem fine enough and I like the ease of assembly. Now the real proving ground to me will be in the longevity of sharpness and how well it works for other projects, but for the money I was a little disappointed."
