Product Description
Using the food mill unlocks the aromas and textures of fresh vegetables and herbs, enhancing the flavor of any dish. The 2-Quart capacity is ideal for preparing fresh tomato or pesto sauce, applesauce, mashed potatoes, peas or yams. This larger size is ideal for home or restaurant use. Health conscious parents can use this food mill to create their own baby purees that are chemical and preservative free. It includes 3 different sized attachments for mashing, milling or ricing. The food mill is supported by foldable legs. The legs help to stabilize the food mill over pots or bowls. A quick turn of the large crank handle forces food through the blades and directly into a pot or bowl. The entire mill is made of stainless steel and is dishwasher safe.
Amazon.com Review
This food mill is an excellent tool for making homemade baby purees from fibrous ingredients, such as peas, dried apricots, or prunes, as it pushes through the smooth pulp and leaves the fiber behind. In addition, it strains seeds and skin from tomatoes to make soup or sauce and makes the fluffiest mashed potatoes. Made of high-quality stainless-steel, this tomato/vegetable mill has three heavy-duty blades with fine, medium, and coarse holes to accommodate many different foods. After inserting the proper blade, you can load up to 2.1 quarts of puree ingredients into the mill. Then simply rotate the handle to push fruits and veggies through the strainer with the paddle. The food mill has three non-slip legs that allow it to rest on any pot or bowl with a 9-inch or smaller diameter. For mess-free clean-up, the mill is dishwasher-safe. --Cristina Vaamonde

 Awesome Food Mill!!! August 15, 2008

I don't understand these negative reviews.......I got one of these mills, and it works beautifully. When you insert the blade assembly, put the pin in the center hole, insert one hook in the side tab, and then hook the second tab into place. You use less force, and get more leverage. It's so easy to do, my 5 year old son could do it!!!!
Don't let the negative reviews bother you about this product. I didn't, and I got a wonderful piece of equipment that should last for many years in my kitchen.
BTW-I'm a former chef that has used all the commercially available equipment in a variety of kitchens, and this is a very easy to use/clean piece of equipment.
Buy one, and you won't be disappointed (unless you're a total spaz!!)
 Great until you try to change the disks. June 30, 2008

I absolutely loved this food mill until I tried to change the disk. Neither I nor my husband could get the disk back into the mill properly once I took it out to change disks. I finally pushed so hard the mill broke. Going to try the Oxo next.

Very well made. Sturdy, nice looking, but most important of all, it works great. I think it is easy to assemble and that it turns easily. It does not come with instructions, so if you need to know how to use it read the other good reviews.
There is an online set of directions in one of them. If you are mechanically challenged there are videos at the company web site here.

I love it. It's easy to clean, looks good and works well. Very sharp, easy to clean, dishwasher safe, fits all my pots and bowls. It isn't as fast as a food processor, but it works better, does more, and is very satisfying to use.
The price is really up. I paid 37.99 on March 18th with free shipping and a 4 for 3 offer so you may want to wait for a sale.
Excellent Food Mill April 4, 2008

Love this mill. It is far superior to the old aluminum ones with the little wire bar underneath that food got caught up in. I love the larger size and shape too. Makes wonderful mashed potatoes and tomatoes for soup. No peeling with the food mill! Yeah! I also like the fact that there are 3 different sizes of discs "cutting blades" so I can adjust the size to what I am preparing.
I highly recommend this food Mill
 Great Food Mill March 27, 2008

This food mill works great. The people who review this and say that the "blade" is difficult to insert are very confused. The piece of metal that turns around and forces the food through the discs is just that. It is not a blade, and is not sharp. Yes this might be difficult to put together if you have severe arthritis, but for a normal person it should be very easy to put together. There is no need for instructions as this is very simple to understand for anyone who has used a food mill before or seen one used before. This works almost as well as any other I've used before. My only complaint, and I'm still trying to figure out if I'm doing something wrong, is that when you reverse the rotation to scrape of the disc, it only allows you to move about a quarter-turn before it catches and stops. It should really let you rotate fully in both directions. That is the only reason I've given this four stars instead of five. And again, I'll change it to five if I figure out it's me doing something wrong. I am overall very pleased with MIU's products.
