Weston 61-0101-W Food Mill, Stainless Steel



Poor design
I have an old-school food mill that has made the rounds of my kid's homes and my daughter wanted one of her own. I found this one and liked the idea of changeable disks for a variety of grating and ease of cleaning. On Christmas Day my daughter happily cleaned it and attempted to mash potatoes...... very frustrating process, the potatoes simply spun around with the blades. We tried changing the disk, flipped it over (in case we had it in wrong - which we didn't), put more in, put less in, and finally gave up. We completed the potatoes with my old one in a fraction of the time we had managed to mash about one potato with the new one! It is being returned today!

Juicing tomatoes
Bought this to handle the extra garden tomatoes. Worked well but did require a lot of grinding motion to get all the juice out.

Otherwise well made and spotless steel.

food mill
Love it, it works great, cleans easy and I don't have to worry about it rusting. The price was worth every penny I spent on it.
