Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Krups 402-70 The Butcher Shop Meat GrinderCustomer Review: Just what I was looking for Summary: 5 Stars
I almost didn't buy this because some of the reviews were so negative, but it turns out to be just what I was looking for to replace a product that has done us good service for 30 years.
(the only reason I wanted to replace it was that it's pedistal base cracked last year and it was a bit wobbly when I was grating stuff)
I didn't buy this for the meat grinder, I bought it for the salad attachments. Many years ago, my mother bought a small appliance called "kitchenworks", and this product is certainly an exact duplicate.
Some reviewers here thought the grating/slicing drums were a bit flimsy, but I compared them to my old product and they are the exact same weight and temperance as my current product, so I expect them to hold on for as many years. As for the comments on the meat grinding attachment rusting, I would have to say that these attachements are NOT stainless steel, so they should be towel dried after cleaning, rather than left to air dry in a dish drainer.
As a whole, this product is a good buy, even if, like me, you never use it for anything other than grating veggies and cheese.
Description of Krups 402-70 The Butcher Shop Meat GrinderThis powerful Krups 402-70 150-watt appliance is an all-purpose grinder, capable of not only grinding meat at a rate of 2.2 pounds per minute, but also of crushing ice. An accompanying salad-making kit consists of three rotating drums that slice, shred, and julienne vegetables and grind hard cheeses. Though the exterior and some of the tools are made of plastic, the grinding drive, disks, and drums are made of metal for durability. For handling meat, the grinder comes with fine- and coarse-grinding disks, a cone for extruding ground meat into sausage casings, and a mold for pressing freshly ground hamburger into 3-1/2-inch patties. The ice-crushing drum is excellent for shaving ice for party platters and drinks, and the pastry shaper fits onto the feed chute, letting you extrude lots of dough in star, square, round, diamond, and flat shapes. The grinder measures 10-1/2 inches long and 5 inches wide.
