PriorityChef Large 15oz Potato Ricer, Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Potato Masher and Ricer Kitchen Tool, Press and Mash Kitchen Gadget For Perfect Mashed Potatoes - Everytime, Gold and Black

While this tool is obviously fantastic for making light and fluffy mashed potatoes, I actually bought it for a different reason: to solve the problem of soggy homemade hashbrowns. It has been a complete game-changer.The key to truly crispy hashbrowns is getting the shredded raw potatoes as dry as possible before they hit the pan. Squeezing them by hand in a towel is messy and never seems to get all the moisture out. This potato ricer is the perfect tool for the job. I just load the hopper with shredded potatoes and squeeze it over the sink. A surprising amount of starchy water comes out, leaving me with a compact, dry puck of potato shreds ready for the skillet. The result is perfectly golden-brown and crispy hashbrowns every single time.As for the tool itself, it absolutely lives up to the "heavy duty" description. It's made of thick, solid stainless steel and feels like a professional kitchen gadget that will last a lifetime. The large basket holds a good amount, and the whole thing cleans up easily in the dishwasher. The long handles provide great leverage, so you don't have to strain, even when pressing a full load.Pros:* Heavy-duty stainless steel construction feels very durable.* The ultimate "kitchen hack" for making crispy hashbrowns.* Also excellent for its intended purpose (fluffy mashed potatoes).* Large capacity hopper saves time.* Dishwasher safe for easy cleanup.Cons:* It's a fairly large tool, so it takes up a bit of drawer space.Whether you're looking for perfect mashed potatoes or the secret to restaurant-quality hashbrowns, this ricer is a fantastic, well-built tool. It's one of those simple gadgets that does its job perfectly. Highly recommended.

The Priority Chef Heavy Duty Ricer with 3 discs (uncolored stainless) is exactly as advertised. It is well made, smooth edges, nicely polished, and made using heavy duty sturdy stainless steel (no flex - even discs) especially compared to others I tried. The quality you'd find at a high end store. Yes, handles are a bit far apart but I think it would take two hands to be steady even if closer together - so no big deal and an easy adjustment for me even with smallish hands.) My first time using a ricer and I will never look back to making mashed potatoes any other way (food mill aside but that's another cleanup story). Light, fluffy, and HOT! because no mashing that dissipates the heat. No more gooey pasty mashed. Because butter/liquid is added after pressing through the disk it is easy to control the final moisture/texture with just a toss the mashed. I place as stainless steel bowl over a pot of simmering water and press into that to keep hot while finishing up the meal (don't cover or only partially and be careful to keep the water at a low simmer or the pots may burn!) I wanted the pictured disc with the oval holes (+\- 1/2" x 1") to make more homestyle mashed with some lump. Did not find discs sold separately so ended up buying a 2nd ricer just for the that disc (note: some ricers use a smaller diameter disc so it may take trial and error). Glad I did! Now I get mashed potatoes any smoothness I want - from pommes puree to lump homestyle. After pressing, toss the ricer and parts in the pot you boiled the potatoes with warm water and cleanup is a cinch. Best kitchen tool purchase in years!

I have not used this product just yet, but it appears to be very sturdy and the three different discs fit securely in place. This item was delivered promptly and undamaged. This will work well for making lefse and for mashed potatoes. I would recommend this to other buyers.

.It makes mashing potatoes so much easier that the traditional way, with no lumps just smooth and velvety.

I have not had the chance to use it yet but the product arrived on time and in good shape. I was impressed by its sturdiness and looks of good quality.

Works great we tried it the day it came in. My wife added this to her go to kitchen tools.

It's so easy to handle. Efficient and time saver. The results are elevated fluffy mashed potatoes. Excellent buy

I, like others whose reviews I read, purchased this for gnocchi. I LOVE IT!! It will now be used for anything requiring potato mashing. I can’t wait to use it for cottage pie and whatever else I can dream up. I even want to play with other veggies in it and see what it can do. It’s easy to clean and way easier to press than I thought it would be. My only very small complaint is its size for a kitchen that lacks cabinets such as mine. But that is a me problem, not this product.
