Review: Heavy duty prosumer product at price point. - Let me start this review with an engineers rant about about choice of material vs design. People in the market for a grinder worry far too much about metal vs plastic gears. First of, neither all plastics nor metals are created equal. For example, in many applications quality nylon, poly carbonate or whatever is vastly supperior to mystery chinese cast metal. Secondly, as long as design and dimensioning is appropriate for the material choice, even a weak material will work for the intended purpose. I've had my grinder for several years now. Its processed well over 20 big game animals, much of it poorly trimmed sinewy meat and well over freezing temperature (worst case scenario for a grinder). The output is perfect and the rest of our processing line is nowhere near able to keep up with it. Looking at this device its quite clear it was produced by a designer that makes professional meat grinders for a living who was tasked to make a more affordable unit that would only produce maybe a thousand pounds of meat a season rather than a thousand pounds of meat a day at a professional locker. It uses nylon gears, cheap aluminum cast for the housing and screw and only quality stainless where it really matters: the knife and the plate. The motor is an ancient twentieth century brushed design that stinks of ozone when fired up. Everything is ridiculously overbuilt and there is no way anything will strip on a properly manufactured and assembled device. It is big and clunky, super noisy, and the parts, while super easy to clean manually, are not dish washer safe, but for seasonal use i feel the savings are totally worth it over a pro-grade device. On a final note, the most common problem with any grinder is clogging due to sinew build-up around the knife. This can happen due to poor knife/plate alignment or because they've become dull, but will quickly be an issue even on a quality device with sharp edges if not assembled right. A grinder cuts by shearing the material between the knife edge and the holes in the plate, similar to a scissor, and just a like a scissor the fit between mating surfaces needs to be tight. As such, when tightening down the aluminum head, don't be shy. There is a happy medium, but better a little on the tight side - practice makes perfect :) Review: Perfect for processing at home - This grinder is perfect! We process 2-3 deer each year, and our old hand grinder was a nightmare. A friend suggested this one, and he was right. It's fast, easy to use, and easy to clean. It does the job well. ## Features - Compact Meat Grinder for Home Kitchens: This 575-watt meat grinder uses a heavy-duty aluminum head that locks with a quarter turn and disassembles easily. Ideal for occasional grinding at home - Quiet Operation: Processes 2–3 lbs per minute for burgers, sausage, and pet food prep using beef, pork, poultry, and gameβ€”not for grinding bones. Push-button forward and pulse reverse help clear jams, and the motor runs quieter than expected - Easy to Clean: Aluminum head, stainless steel plates, and knife offer reliable performance. All parts clean easily with warm soapy water and the grinder disassembles quickly. Includes stuffing tube and plate for use as a sausage stuffer - Grinding Possibilities: Our Grinder is ideal for processing game if you are a hunter, chef, or buying bulk meat. You can prep everything from burgers and sausages to making pet food out of scraps that would otherwise be wasted - Stand Behind Our Products: We offer a one-year factory warranty on our meat grinder and lifetime customer support for any questions you may have. Additionally, we carry replacement parts for a large variety of our products, past and present ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01IUWHAA2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #107,120 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #62 in Meat Grinders | | Brand | LEM | | Brand Name | LEM | | Capacity | 5 Pounds | | Color | Silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 280 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00734494012248 | | Included Components | Grinder | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 14.17"L x 6.89"W x 13.78"H | | Item Type Name | Countertop Grinder | | Item Weight | 11.25 Pounds | | Manufacturer | LEM Products | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1224 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 Year Warranty | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model Number | 1224 | | Product Dimensions | 14.17"L x 6.89"W x 13.78"H | | Recommended Uses For Product | Home | | Specific Uses For Product | Grinding, Sausage-making, Burgers, Pet food | | Style | Meat Grinder | | Style Name | Meat Grinder | | UPC | 734494012248 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 120 Volts (AC) | | Wattage | 575 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LEM - **Color:** Silver - **Item Weight:** 11.25 Pounds - **Material:** Aluminum - **Style:** Meat Grinder ## Images ![LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Compact Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ruG5sa+6L.jpg) ![LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Compact Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6120AwCSbXL.jpg) ![LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Compact Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zjYBqVyCL.jpg) ![LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Compact Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JbaVmdbJL.jpg) ![LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder for Home Use, Compact Food Processor for Grinding, Sausage Stuffing, Cooking - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Cf6zoh63L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Lem website says this has plastic gears. description on here says metal. it's the same sku# so which is it?** A: Plastic **Q: What size accessories fit this?

We process 2-3 deer each year, and our old hand grinder was a nightmare. A friend suggested this one, and he was right. It's fast, easy to use, and easy to clean. It does the job well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product for great price *by M***E on November 4, 2025* Works great! This is the perfect size and price for beginner meat grinding. It is loud as other people mentioned, but I didn't really expect that a machine that grinds meat would be quiet... We used this grind venison and it worked as expected. It took longer to clean all the parts and pieces than to actually grind the meat. ## Frequently Bought Together - LEM Products #8 Countertop Meat Grinder, 575 Watt Aluminum Electric Meat Grinder Machine, Ideal for Occasional Use - LEM Products Ground Meat Packaging System, Blue - LEM Products Meat Grinder Foot Switch, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/34073588-lem-products-8-countertop-meat-grinder-575-watt-aluminum-electric](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/34073588-lem-products-8-countertop-meat-grinder-575-watt-aluminum-electric) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
