This is an excellent machine and performs to expectations. It seems to be well built and I expect it to be durable. I generally mince 5kg meat and… Read more

fat in a batch and it copes with this well. Minor niggles are: - It is very noisy - The input hopper is way too small for this machine. - You need to sit it on a few books to get the output high enough above the bench to be able to use a large bowl to collect the mince.

Excellent meat grinder ! – I m very happy with my new mincer. It made short order of wild pork and venison.  It will get a lot more use for certain!The stainless steel parts… Read more

quality construction, great result – we bought the mincer attachment to make our own mince, the kit comes with sausage stuffing cones in 2 sizes, thick and thin. Made our first sausages… Read more

last week and are so thrilled with how good they are. Takes a little practice and then it's easy. I would like KitchenAid to provide more instructions and recipes, what comes in the box is basic. The mincer itself is really well made but requires hand washing.

This is a fine little grinder – One thing I would advise, is that the unit came from the factory with the blade on backwards. I first made a batch of Italian sausage and it was… Read more

hard yakka. Then went back to the manual and found the proper blade placement. That did the trick! I have just recently made a batch of andouille sausage from a pork shoulder w/skin and a pork belly skin. It chewed through 3 kilos of meat and fat in about 5 minutes. A reminder to any "budding sausage makers" that you need to put the meat in the freezer, but not completely frozen before grinding and check that your blade is not on backwards (I had a similar experience as the below reviewer until I sorted the proper blade placement.) The sausage stuffer attachments are great! I have built a whole charcuterie hobby around this little beauty. It is powerful and does the business. Clean-up and reassembly is a snap. I would highly recommend it.

Cheap plastic internals – Biggest waste of money, plastic gears that have caused 3 warrenty return after 1 or 2 uses, now it's let go for the 4th time it's not even worth the… Read more

drive to get another one. Would suit a one time use or a conversation peice about how you want to start making your own sausages but don't have the time.

Not bad at all for the price – Pros: Sausage making is a breeze. Before buying it I've tried using a funnel, it's night and day, by all means use a machine. For best results you… Read more

need to do it slowly and steadily, so your sausages are regularly calibrated and you have very little left over meat in the pipe. At first the suction base seemed useless, but once I moistened the base and pushed on it while turning the lever, the suction was actually perfect. Price is excellent: $24 at Victoria Basement

Cons: A bit fiddly to clean properly, hand wash only. Made from aluminum (would prefer stainless steel). The crank handle is longer than the machine is high, so you need to put it on the edge of the table to be able to turn the handle.

I purchased a Flora mincer 15 months ago and it is no longer working. Typical of poor quality equipment. Just out of warrenty and they fail. Not… Read more

impressed at all. I only got through 95kg of venison collectively, in four seperate sessions. I'm disapointed to say the leaset. And finding a new motor to replace the failed motor is an impossibility it seams!

Seriously disappointed. The cutting blades loose their cut very quickly. It turns what was once a quick job into a real task. Even when removing all the fat and sinew it still clogs up the blade. Show details

terrible – We' got the Eurochef 2800w grinder. Gets stuck any time you get a bit of sinew or grizzle in the meat. It does mention this in the manual but, come… Read more

on. Its impractical to remove all the sinew from meat before you grind. You just spend all your time removing the meat from the cutting plate. We ended up using our old manual grinder and it works like a charm. No issues!

Aluminium in the mince – I bought one. It was cheap. Should have known better. First time I used it the rotor deflected onto the inside of the barrel and shaved off… Read more

aluminium.

Should have taken it back, but so disgusted with it and with myself for buying it, I just threw it in the metal recyclers.

OK I am an engineer by profession.. Legal practitioner etc.. And I despise Aldi's practice of dumping garbage products on the market. This meat… Read more

mincer, is CHEAP and NASTY.

This is why Aldi never evaluate their products, they buy garbage in cheap and sell it ONLY to make money, so they make sales, and you get lumbered with unusable products.

This why Aldi avoid putting any specifications or the instruction manuals etc., with the online sales pitch, so you can only find out what your really in for, AFTER you buy it and THEN see what is really in it, and you can read the instruction manual....

This is just more of Aldi's deceitful marketing practice.

1. What they don't tell you up front is that you have to cut your meat into 2cm cubes, in order to get the meat to go through the feed tube - into the mincing mechanisim.

This is what is in the instructions.

2. The model is NASTY and CHEAP - the motor is tiny little cheap motor that just will not last.

I recall it has a 150W motor, like from a cheap hair dryer, and I think it had a 5 minutes mincing and 10 minutes cooling off duty cycle...

Secondly I bought one and thought, "Yeah go buy 5 or 10 Kg of meat and vegies and make up my own dim sims...."

Forget it.

Forget cutting 5 or 10 Kg of meat, into 2cm cubes and taking week to mince it.

I bought one, found it was more of Aldi's making money at your expense type garbage, I found that it really was a POOR product, and so I took it back.

Straight out - don't buy them.

When Aldi tries to sell you unsaleable goods, leave them with it - why? Because if they want to buy it, they can keep it.

Keep your cash in your pocket and bypass the Aldi con-jobs.

My recommendation is to not buy this mincer.

It's garbage.
