Is looked like a nice and well made but I was understanding it would grind bones but when I open the package the first thing it said was don’t grind bones so I had to send it back
Worked fine grinding venison, had to clear cutter a few times but that was easy. Simple to put together even for an old guy!
It was awesome I processed 3 deer with no issues. Will definitely buy again
Nice grinder. Seems powerful. Won’t use the sausage stuffing attachment. I prefer a manual (crank) sausage stuffer so I can control the speed and plumpness. I ground some semi-frozen beef and it worked pretty well. Fairly powerful. I wish it had a 10mm grinding plate instead of just 7mm. And wish they’d say in the description how big the grinding plate is.
I bought this meat grinder primarily to course grind tri-tip roasts for homemade chili. It was very easy to assemble, the only thing that was not completely intuitive was how the to assemble and disassemble the main tube to the body of the unit. Hint: to insert attach at approximately a 25 degree angle to the right and then rotate left until it locks. Hint #2: to disassemble, one needs to hold down the release button on the top of the unit before the main tube will rotate right and come off. It is explained clearly in the manual. Also, the unit is NOT dishwasher safe, just wash by hand and dry immediately. Very easy to clean. I just ground a 4 pound tri-tip in about 2 minutes. The motor is plenty strong enough. Pleased with purchase, I recommend.
Updated 6/23/2019: I downgraded this to a 1 star rating because the seller did not follow through on the promotion for a "FREE ELECTRIC FOOD CHOPPER" (see attached pic). I emailed my screenshot of the review and the only thing I got in return was an email box full of spam mail from China. Thanks for selling my email address to the highest bidder. I did contact the seller about 2 months later (the spam mailings had began to fade and i figured a follow up with the seller would refresh the deluge to my inbox). I received a sincere apology from "Tony, the Customer Team Leader of ALTRA" and a reassurance that I "will receive it within 3 days". Tony included a copy of the shipping label as proof. Unfortunately for Tony, I am NOT some woman in Naples, Florida. (Maybe she got a FREE item?). I informed Tony that the shipping info he sent as proof was not correct. I received a follow up email with Tony's whole hearted apologies and proof of the correct name and shipping address. I'm thinking to myself at this time - IS THIS REALLY WORTH THE EFFORT ? I let Tony know that I really have no confidence that I'll receive anything other than spam mail from China. I was not let down.. It's 6 weeks later, I have NOT received any FREE item, But the deluge of Chinese spam mail has been rejuvenated.** Thanks Tony. I told you that I was going to revise my review and contact Amazon if you screwed me over **At least one of us can keep his word. BTW: I really like the grinder.This is the first grinder I have ever used. I cannot compare it to any other grinder. This is my experience:The product was delivered quickly and in good order. All the parts were included as they are described. I hand washed all the parts prior to use. (Use a baby bottle scrubber to make cleaning the screw mechanism an easy task). The grinder head is easy to disassemble and reassemble. I Recommend putting a few drops of cooking oil on the washer area where the screw attaches to the motor. That will cut down on the metal dust formation.I ran 25 pounds of deer meat through all 3 plates. Then I mixed a 10 pound breakfast sausage batch and ran that through 2 sets of plates. This machine barely got warm during the whole process. It kept up with my feed rate and I never had to use the reverse feature. (Always keep your meat cold for best results). I am looking forward to getting the sausage making accessories from Santa. I'll post an updated review after I'm done making some sausage links.Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year
Machine worked fine until the auger part broke and cannot find a replacement.
