Mashes potatoes and other veggies with no lumps

If you know the difference between mashed potatoes that have been prepared with a ricer and not (lumps, eyes, skin) this beauty did the trick. Main thing: no plastic parts. Stainless finish. Soap and sponge will do it, soak right after you're done using it so the potato doesn't harden on the ricer.

Is there anyone reading this who serves mashed potatoes either only at holiday dinners or often times during the year, but hates having lumps in them yet can't seem to get them out no matter how hard you mash or whip them? Then you must get this ricer. The size is wonderful because you don't have to refill it as often and the structure is so well put together that you can do many cooked potatoes at once without feeling any real pressure in your hands and arms. It is a smooth operator for sure. Your potatoes will be lump-free every time plus your preparation time is cut at least in half if not more. You only have to rice your cooked potato pieces into a large bowl, add heated milk and melted butter to the mixture and stir with a large spoon. You have instantly smooth mashed potatoes without any mashing or whipping whatsoever. A friend told me I should get one, I'd love it and she was right. I thought as long as I was going for it, I might as well get the best and this one is commercial quality. I couldn't be more pleased with a kitchen gadget. I don't know why I didn't buy one years ago when my children were small. It would have made mealtime preparation a whole lot easier! It is like a giant garlic press only less work because the cooked potatoes are softer than a raw garlic bud.

It's larger than the standard ricer, and the pot rest is a nice feature. I actually bought it as a "press" of sorts, to squeeze liquid out of potato gratings for hash browns, etc, and it works GREAT for that purpose as it holds all the gratings I would need at once, instead of having to do multiple batches in a small one. It seems sturdy, well made.As an actual potato ricer, it seems.... difficult to use. Not having real experience mashing potatoes in a ricer before I don't know how this compares to a normal small one, but it VERY difficult to squeeze, and I have pretty strong arms & hands. I torqued on that thing, grunting, while a smidgen of potato mash squirted out the holes, then I had to open it up, scrape the "patty" of potato around and try pressing again. This was with peeled, fully soft cooked potatoes. I pretty much filled the reservoir with several small potatoes, so maybe it needs to be less full to operate easily for that function?As a liquid press, it rocks and serves my needs well. As a ricer, be forewarned.

First, this is very large. It is simple to use, and rices potatoes nicely. I bought it having no experience with a potato ricer, and no idea what to expect. I just read that this tool was the be all, end all for mashed potatoes. Well, it does the job of "ricing" perfectly. The potatoes are turned into tiny potato particles. But some reviews indicated that going from tiny potato particles to mashed potatoes was simply a matter of stirring in butter/milk. This is not true in my opinion. After ricing I still use an old fashioned potato masher to incorporate the hot milk and butter, otherwise the texture is not right. I like the texture better WITH the ricer to first process the potatoes, but it is not a stand alone tool. As to the tool itself, it is a great quality, very sturdy, and easy to use. Storage space may be an issue if you have smaller cupboards. And it barely fits in my dishwasher. But it does fit.

I love making gnocchi and mashed potatoes. A potato ricer makes both of these things better and easier, so I spent a long time researching and sifting through the potato ricers available on Amazon. Most of the ones I found had small capacities and a good amount of negative reviews. When I found this ricer, I loved the size but worried about the price (twice as much as most of the others found on Amazon). I took the plunge and couldn't be happier. This ricer can hold about two whole potatoes at a time and makes quick work of a whole pot of potatoes. There is a pot/bowl rest to help steady the ricer while you work. Since the ricer has such a large capacity, it takes a good amount of muscle to push the potatoes through but it does a great job. This ricer is made of stainless steel, and cleaning the ricer is extremely easy. It is dishwasher safe, but it cleans up by hand quickly too. This ricer is much larger than other options, but it fits easily into my pot drawer.

I had another one that was smaller - this is very well constructed!I was concerned reading reviews but this is great - exactly what I hoped for.If you have small hands you will need to cut smaller potato pieces because this is a larger can so the two handles have to create a larger gap the fuller the can.I have fairly large hands and use BOTH of them to manage this when I fill it fairly full - part of that is for stability.Please make sure you wash and dry after use - I generally put it water as soon as I am finished with it and wash it first with my cooking knives after dinner. My special tools never go in the dishwasher and this has earned its rank as a special tool in my kitchen!

I purchased this for one purpose: to squeeze out excess fluid from salted vegetables. I make a lot of asian dumplings, which call for salted chopped napa cabbage, which releases a lot of liquid and needs to be squeezed dry. My old method of wrapping in a towel ruined a few towels and tired my wimpy hands. This large capacity will hold an entire head of salted cabbage. This works like a charm and I LOVE IT. Also good for making Korean panchans (spinach, bean sprouts) similar process. I gave one to my sister in law after she saw me use it.
