WOW! Defect after defect after defect! I bought this after completely disregarding all the negative reviews. I'm in the restaurant business and know that often times people misuse kitchen tools then mistake them for faulty products. Now, having written that, I AM A FOOL! I read all I could about grinding and sausage making for 2 days before pulling this out of the box. Excited to get started, I washed it then tried to assemble it. 1st problem- the grind plate did not fit on the shaft. The shaft was slightly

Works OK generally - but slip off counter sometimes. Have to screw down VERY tight to prevent this.

I ordered this from another site that showed a Porkert #10 grinder but actually sent me a Weston #10 grinder. What a horrible mistake! The grinder is poorly tinned and I'm not surprised others complained about pieces of metal in their meat -- casual inspection of the grinding plate shows loose flecks of metal just waiting to come off over time.

Blade is not sharp enough, adjustable burrs get rusty in 30 minutes if you don't dry them right away after washing. The body is poorly made, metal pieces come off. It does the job, but hard to work with.

My husband and I ordered the #10 grinder to grind venison. We read the reviews and thought it would be good enough for the few times we'd use it. As it turned out, it didn't work very well at all. It attached easily and seemed sturdy, but the grinding itself was horrible. We bought this grinder to replace a very old one and it took us twice as long as it did before to grind packages of venison.

On the plus side, I returned the grinder to Amazon and received a full refund, which included shippin

I have always wanted one of these so when I got married last April I had my husband buy me one. When it arrived we immediately mounted it on the kitchen table, cut up some meat and began grinding. It took my husband only 4 minutes to cut his finger off. It was the finger next to his hole finger. I can't believe this happened. We don't have insurance for his finger and the meat was a little ruined. - Queen Cool

Got the grinder recently. It is much rougher compared to the picture (and the one we had many years ago), but (so far) does do job pretty well.
For the price, is a good deal.

This is NOT a Czech Porkert grinder, but a Chinese imitation. It is poorly made, with poor plating and rough machining. On the positive side, it actually does grind meat - but I had to sharpen the blades first.

It works well, it can get stuck from time to time but you just have to crank the other way and it's fine.

Bought the #32 manual grinder. I got the first one from a different place (more expensive). It wasn't a Weston but it looks almost exactly the same. The first one broke after about 180 lbs of grinding when the little pin which keeps the plate from spinning broke. I rigged a decent fix by jamming a short piece of a drill bit into the indentation. I returned that grinder then bought this Weston one. I've ground 120 lbs so far and it hasn't broken; although I won't be suprised if it does (the design looks the

For the price I can't ask for any better performance. I got exactly what I wanted. Now I can buy 2 lbs of beef for less than $3/lb, grind it up and get ground beef healthier than that in any supermarket. I get most of my good bargains at Amazon.com

this product does not fit securely on the counter and certainly does not hold tight enough to grind meat. It was almost impossible to grind ( maybe if I were a 300 football player I could have done it). It also weighs a TON!!!

I bought this item as a gift: the recipient liked it, but I am not sure if she has used it yet.

Item arrived fully packaged and undamaged in the time specified.

Thank you.

Instruction manual is very helpful (hint: do not skip the step of freezing the meat a little bit -- it makes all the difference). This grinder does a fantastic job and it's pretty easy to clean. The grinding blade and plate inside does rust if left wet though, so be warned to dry thoroughly after washing. However, all parts feel extremely solid and I'm confident that they'll last for years if they are well-cared for.

Upon receiving the package, the front ring nut wasn't machined properly and it even had a hole in the side; looks like a poor cast job. I called customer service and got a replacement. It also seems to fit better too.

Okay, now onto using it. It grinds stuff fairly well, and there won't be any complaints here. However, after using it, I washed it, dried all of the components, reassembled it and put it back in the box for storage.

The next time I used it, I noticed rust along all of

I wanted the grinder as pictured. However, I was mailed the Clamp down. Upon advising the vendor, I was e-mailed back stating that I should have been specific that I wanted the bolt down as shown on photo....okay, whatever. To add to insult the grinder sent appeared to be a return or restock. I'll have to try to get rid of it in a garage sale..Weston 36-1001-W Deluxe H/D Manual Tinned Meat Grinder w/ Deluxe Accs Kit (#10)
