"Wonderful mincer" star star star star star Having inherited my mother’s mincer many years ago it got to the stage where it was unusable. I never expected to find another one of such a high standard. It’s strong. Durable and works well. Recommend it to all
"Great little Meat Mincer and Sausage Maker Machine" star star star star star This is a great little machine, not used the sausage making attachment as yet. As another reviewer said “ lightly dampen base of machine for better adhesion, we have granite work tops and stays in situ through out mincing fresh / cold meat. Easy to dismantle and wash.
"Disappointing" star star_border star_border star_border star_border Having been a 50s child, I bought this mincer to try and make Shepherd's Pie from the left-over lamb joint, just like my Mum used to do with her Spong mincer. Unlike some of the other reviews, I didn't have problems with the suction pad on my granite work-top, but the knob to set the suction pad is very stiff (a bit scary until you realise just how forceful you have to be). However, the result from the cooked lamb was awful! It just turned it to a sort of paste - a real waste of the remains of a lovely leg of lamb. I think the larger cutter disc is just too small. support_agent A note from the team Thank you for your review. We’re sorry this meat mincer hasn’t worked as well as you’d expected and we’ve been in touch to help further. We’d suggest chopping the meat into thin pieces and making sure it’s cold before putting through the mincer. You could also try cooling the mincing blades before use.
"Too difficult to lockdown on counter" star star_border star_border star_border star_border I have had this mincer for a while but the system to lock it firmly on the counter top is far to hard to use. Without doing this the mincing system is not fixed and the mincer moves. I am going to buy a metal one which screws to the counter. support_agent A note from the team **this item was purchased over 3 years ago which is beyond our guarantee, so maybe it's got harder to use over time ** However the only issue we’ve heard with the locking mechanism before is that it doesn’t lock to any surface with a texture, so we would suggest trying it on a smooth surface in this case.
"Answer to Mrs Howard question" star star star star star two things I think of: (1) dampen the base of the sausage maker for better adhesion (2) use a Glass Worktop Saver as a base
