Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Weston #10 Heavy Duty Manual Tinned Meat Grinder
Customer Review: Bought and returned unused - awful plating job
Summary: 2 Stars
While I liked the accessories (plates, knife, sausage tubes, table protector), #10 size and most other things about this grinder, the bad plating job on the auger and inside the main body killed any desire to use this brand of this product. The auger in particular was missing large chunks of plating right out of the box, (One the size of dime!) The metal surface underneath (since you could see and feel it) didn't look or feel like cast iron either, but rather more like pot metal.
I doubt the rest of the plating would have stayed on very well, and pieces of tin plating would likely have contaminated and ruined things. The threads on the ring were also shallow and I worry I would have cross-threaded it easily (probably bad casting on the ring, also mentioned in another review), so I returned the whole thing.
I had an antique #10 grinder from an estate sale that was missing pieces, and I considered using pieces of this to build a complete grinder, but the bad plating, poor metal and bad ring threads sunk that idea.
I found another #10 grinder at a local (and online if you're not in the Midwest) tool and hydraulics shop (of all places) on sale on Black Friday for about the same price as this, with the same nice accessories for about the same price. The plating and ring threads were much better than the Weston-branded one. I'd recommend against Weston due to poor plating, ring casting and unknown base metal on some parts. (On the other hand, the accessories if bought separately are worth more than the cost of the grinder kit on Amazon - it only gets a 2 star because of this.)
I've now used the antique #10 with the missing parts supplied from the new to make lots of ground meat and sausage. I like the size of this product for game meat processing. I recommend you either pay more for a better quality brand (or get lucky on a Black Friday or big sale), or shop estate sales or Craig's List for an antique that will last a long time and not contaminate things.
