Sunmile Electric Meat Grinder and Sausage Maker - 1HP 1000W Max - Stainless Steel Cutting Blade and 3 Grinding Plates,1 Big Sausage Staff Maker, White

So far I've made three pounds of country sausage (Alton Brown's recipe--if you're Southern you know) and am pleased with the grinder's performance. I was pretty thorough in reading the directions and chilled the metal parts in the freezer while I cut up a chunk of CostCo pork loin, being sure to trim some fat the from the remaining loin to add to my chunks, which I seasoned and chilled, popping the meat into the freezer for a bit before grinding--the chunks definitely weren't frozen. I assembled the metal parts according to the directions and got down to grinding. The grinder is not particularly quiet but made short work of the grind and I was pleased with the performance--the motor seems plenty strong. Overall, the grinder is quite compact and will be easy to store. Build quality seems good, the metal parts are light but well made and the blade and dies are solid and sharp. I washed all the metal parts by hand and found the auger housing a bit difficult to clean, but didn't have the proper tools on hand, so that should be remedied in the future. The unit grinds quickly and efficiently and I feel like I could process some large amounts of sausage or ground beef without difficulty. This batch of sausage was bulk, so I have not tried using the stuffing tub to make cased sausage. So far, I am pleased with the purchase and think it was money well spent. I purchased this because the accessory hub on my KitchenAid stand mixer went bad and I couldn't use my KA meat grinder attachment any more. I think this unit outperforms my old KA grinder attachment.

I've used this only once, but it was a great improvement over the hand-cranked grinder I've been using. Very good for the price. But beware of one issue: Amazon's AI responder Rufus says the parts are dishwasher safe, but Rufus like so many AI guys is wrong--they aren't. As an insert warns you when you open the box that a dishwasher will mess up the grinder. I was about to return it because of that, but I discovered that apparently no meat grinders, even expensive ones, can go in the dishwasher. I think the grinding parts are made of aluminum, and a washer will wreck the surface. It's easy to wash, though: rinse off the parts, soak them in warm soapy water ten or fifteen minutes, and you're good.

Works OK but for deer processing you will have to cut into 1 inch cubes. Its a good starter grinder. Remember its not a commercial one, however it can get the job done.

I use it for grinding sprouted wheat grains for bread. Works really well and is much easier than a manual grinder. Fairly easy to clean and the big tray makes it easy to load.

I am very impressed with the quality of this grinder especially considering the low cost and quiet motor. I was looking for a way to ease my preparation of fresh pet food for my doggies. I tried blenders, food processors, choppers, etc. that all made the process too labor intensive. This grinder was the best solution. I was able to grind the cooked carrots, peas, sweet potato, and de-boned rotisserie chicken with the greatest of ease. Bottom line, this grinder is my new favorite, essential kitchen gadget. The grinder has given me the incentive to grind other things. My next project is to grind boneless, skinless chicken breast with spinach and feta cheese to make healthy burgers. I am also thinking that this great grinder will make a great gift. AAA+++ 100% satisfaction.

If you’re looking for a reliable and efficient meat grinder, this one is definitely worth the investment!”

The shiny finish you see isn’t stainless steel—it washed off after the first use. Now the surface is dull gray, and it leaves a black residue on your hands when you wash it. I'm not even sure it's safe to use for grinding food.

Worked very well for what we uses it for! Made the job much easier and no struggling hand grinding, worth the money!
