LEM Products 1384 #10 Aluminum Hand Grinder, Silver

Performed as expected, very well built. I like the light weight aspect. Easy to attach to counter top.

I bought this meat grinder to use to make baby's food, but after I used it a few times and washed and dried all the parts properly, the blade and the plate became totally rusted. And when you grind the meat, the taste of rust is very much present. This is not only bad quality, but very dangerous for health. Do not buy....

Good quality, gets the job done. Needed a little help with bigger pieces but cube your meats before you grind and you will be fine.

I use it for grinding chicken up for my aging pugs. It works like a champ. This is the first grinder I’ve ever used, so nothing to compare it to. I have plans to use it to grind conch meat for conch chowder. An island delicacy....I love it so far. I’ll update if I have any issues.I’d recommend it to friends.

The coarse plate doesn't even fit. There's an unsealed gap at the tip of the auger which is difficult to clean. The plates will rust quickly if not dried and oiled immediately after use. The blade is very dull. Trim your meat well, because gristle and fat will wrap around blade, causing blockage. The beef I ground was a bit mushy. I was a meat cutter for 8 years, so I know how a grinder should work. Overall, for the price, middle of the line. 3 stars. Could be better for sure, but could be worse too. I will probably sell this one and buy a better quality model.

This grinder is heavy duty steel which has a nice, quality feel to it. But, I’ve used it 3 separate times now, i cleaned it before using it, and every time it leaves a really gnarly residue (I’m guessing it’s filings of metal but idk). The residue alone is enough to not wanna reuse it, but it also just doesn’t grind very well. Especially with chicken. The dial clogs up and the meat usually just slips around and even comes back up the top. It’s just a pain. It’s very easy to clean since all the pieces come apart.PS,I had less clogging issues grinding pork than i did with chicken. Haven’t tried beef yet.

this machine is great..so glad I bought it..gonna tell my son about it cuz hes a wonderful cook and know hed like this machine ..woried at first about aluminum but know after all these years theres no problem .five star for any ones use. thanks

This was a gift item to a young couple in Alaska that needed something to grind moose meat. They were surprised when it arrived, as they had been trying to make jerky in strips. Just took a couple turns on the handle for them to realize they had a lifelong piece of quality kitchen equipment.
