LHS Manual Meat Grinder with Stainless Steel Blades Heavy Duty Powerful Suction Base for Home Use Fast and Effortless for All Meats-Black

I was a bit apprehensive buying this meat grinder from the negative issues brought up in past reviews but I figure, of the cheaper ones sold on amazon this seemed little better, maybe. A past review commented the suction to lock the grinder to the countertop didn't work. Well, when I used it and the suction locked down the grinder rock solid to my countertop. I did have to make space because of all my clutter, then to clean and scrub said countertop first but it worked fine. Another comment mentioned the collar that hold the grinder blade in place would unscrew when turning the handle of the grinder. I didn't have that problem. I didn't do anything special but the collar stayed tight without loosening. Another comment, the handle was too long. This definitely is an issue. The handle is maybe a 1/4" too long that it'll hit the counter top when you turn the handle. You have to place the grinder at the edge so that when you crank the handle there is clearance to turn it without any obstruction. I had a edge to the countertop I could use with a perfectly flat spot for the grinder base so I didn't have a problem. . . . and as for using the grinder, it works! Except for the handle being too long, I didn't have any problem using this grinder. I purposely cut the meat into small cubes (maybe about 3/4") I figured to make the grinder easier to grind the meat and it seemed to work. It didn't take that much effort. Pretty much everything comes apart except the main body to the base so cleaning and washing the grinder was very easy. I only just used this once so I don't know how it'll fare in long term usage but it seems solidly built for such a cheap unit. 4 1/2 stars but because it was so cheap and it works well, I gave this a 5. It's not perfect but for a cheap grinder that works, I think it was well worth it. .

I have a large meat grinder. Wanted a small one. This is just the right size. Made my Ham salad . Very easy to assembly and clean.

Considering the price, it works quite well, very easy to use.

I bought this to make ground venison. There were several issues when trying to use it. 1. The handle is longer than where the base sits on the counter so it has to be on the edge of the counter top. 2. Because it's on the edge the suction keeps coming off because it slides around as you are turning the handle. 3. The ring that holds the blades turns in the same direction as you have to turn the handle so no matter how tight you make it, it unscrews itself unless you hold on to it, which is impossible unless you have 3 hands, one to crank, one to use the meat plunger and one to keep it from unscrewing. (Video) I cut the meat into 1/2 inch squares and this grinder had great difficulty feeding into the grinder, venison is very lean, yet the blade kept getting clogged. I was also using the large size plate for grinding and it still was very hard. This came with a cookie dough attachment which is probably the only thing this is good for making. It took me 30 minutes to grind 2 pounds of lean venison and my hands and shoulders were hurting from trying to hold everything together. Since it was past the return window, I threw it in the trash and ordered an electric LEM meat grinder that will do 7 pounds of meat per minute. Unless you are using this for marshmallows, I would not recommend it.

Decided to try this inexpensive meat grinder to do the one thing we use a meat grinder for - making ham salad (ground up ham chunks, ground up sweet gherkins to which we add mayo). I had NONE of the issues mentioned by other users but again, my only use for this new grinder is for grinding ham chunks and gherkins. But . . . for that purpose, it worked just fine and was less of a mess than our old cast-iron grinder. There was NO issue with suction (to a standard FORMICA countertop); NO issue with the retaining collar when tightened properly; NO issue with anything that was different from similar grinding issues with the old cast-iron grinder (i.e. left-over bits of ham or pickle in the feed tube). As for the handle being too long, either they have adjusted the length or mine shrank , but I had no problem turning it over the countertop although I positioned it next to the sink which gave me additional room for turning the handle. Overall - it worked as promised - with the CAVEAT that I've only used it once but have no reason to return it and the price when compared to other grinders works for us.

It's an okay meat grinder for the price but I don't think I'll use it more than a few times. It was impossible to get it to suction to the counter. I tried it dry, I wet the counter. It just didn't make any difference. It said it had a powerful suction base and that is just not so. I held on to the base and my husband turned the handle. It has a very cheap and flimsy feel. It ground my meat but it was a very tender piece and I don't think I will get the same result on something a little tougher. I will eventually just buy a more expensive,better quality meat grinder.

Very good machine

I am beyond thrilled at how easy it was to set up this grinder (after hand washing and drying the components). Since it was sold at such a reasonable price compared to others, and had a few problem comments, I wasn't expecting it to adhere to my counter so firmly and operate so easily and efficiently with the turn of a handle. I would definitely recommend. My photo clearly shows the full bowl of ham that is nicely ground up :-).

just what I needed to grind my steaks into tasty burgers, well made, and sturdy for a plastic device

I use it only when making my traditional cookies as I don't eat meat. Reliable product, good quality

Sent it back to Amazon handel to long
