Does the wire extend through the full length of the handle (i.e., full tang)?

I assume it does. However, I can not see it though, because, there is a stainless steel cap on the back end of the handle.

New to this.There are 2 types of manual potatoe mashers, this tyoe and the flat round one with holes. Which do you prefer and why?

I prefer this this type because it gets the job done faster. It can also leave the potatoes a bit chunky; sometimes I prefer this to really smooth, mashed potatoes. Also, I think the small hole type would make the mashing take longer to do!

What's the difference between the Gourmet and Classic models other than four bucks?

Without looking it up I do not know, however, the Gourmet model is very sturdy and I love how much better it mashed potatoes vs the round waffle shaped ones.

Is the handle latex free?

I wouldn’t think so. It’s not rubber it’s a hard handle but I can’t say for sure.

Normally I would not spend this much but this brand is a fave. This is for sure very heavy duty, if you care for it, I will hand wash, should last you a lifetime. Love the red handle, matches my other appliances. Fast delivery, quality product, also a great size. Thank you for reading my review.
