Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
You could always mash your potatoes, but if you want a finer, fluffier consistency consider a ricer, favorite tool of fine chefs everywhere. You can use it for other root vegetables, making baby food and applesauce too.

Amazon.com Review
Simply place this ricer over any bowl or pot, squeeze the gadget's handles, and mashed fruits and vegetables, especially potatoes, ooze right through. A nonslip knob helps hold it in place, and its soft handles have a comfortable grip. Great for mashed potatoes or for making your own baby food, it's made of stainless steel to withstand repeated use.

The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip, flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably, the pressure-absorbing, processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

It made wonderful creamy mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving November 29, 2008
I used this for the first time for Thanksgiving 2008 and it worked just great! It squeezes out a little potato around the top when you squeeze, but that doesn't bother me. You can only squeeze one medium to large potato at a time due to a small basket; but if it was much bigger, it would be hard to squeeze it shut. It does take a little arm strength, but put in less potato if you can't squeeze it with a large potato in it. If it bothers you to do a little at a time, you would probably want to buy an electronic grinder or such instead of this. My family loved the mashed potatoes and I am very happy with it, especially for the price.

OXO can do better November 4, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful

I normally am a fan of OXO products, but this one is just to flimsy. I bent the flat steel between the handle and the disk the second time using it, now it's in the trash.
My wife had used it maybe a dozen times before me, so maybe for a gentle person it would be fine.

great ricer October 28, 2008
I am really happy with this tool. It is easy to use, almost too large to be easy to grip and push down on the handle, but I've never had a problem using it. Makes great gnocchi and I am also using it to prepare baby food for my son. Cleans easily.

Not for spaetzle October 27, 2008
2 out of 4 found this review helpful

Hi,

I bought this ricer with the plan to make spaetzle for my birthday party. But it was quiet a disaster. The holes are to close to each other so noodles merge right after getting through and it produces one flat disk of dough. Also to stem that it supposed to push the dough is to flat and doesn't seal well with the walls. So depending on the thickness of the dough one usually loses a lot and cleaning is a mess, too. I warned you.

Best regards,
Max.

ricer June 14, 2008

I wanted something that Would squash peas for pea soup. I thought the ricer would do it, but it didn't. But I'm keeping the ricer as I might be able to use it for smashing something else.
