- 1.3HP Commercial Meat Grinder Machine, 950W Heavy Duty, 3/6/8mm

Very good meat grinder. I was able to grind up 3 whole chickens with the bones plus a package of chicken thighs without bone in 5 minutes. For the record, the chicken legs went through more easily when I put the small end through first. Very easy to use and very easy to clean. You do need to buy oil for this grinder. The instructions say "oil of motorcycle" which is a obviously translation issue. I went to Menards and bought engine oil from the power equipment section - the specific product I bought is "Quicksilver Marine Lubricants Premium 2-Stroke Engine Oil". The label for this engine oil included a picture of a motorcycle, so I felt pretty good about using this particular engine oil. One thing that the instructions say is to loosen the nut where the oil is housed when you are grinding the meat - just something to pay attention to. In addition, the instructions say that you are supposed to change the oil after the first 50 hours of use. Given that I'll be grinding meat and bones for 5 minutes at a time every 2 weeks, it's going to be awhile before I hit the 50-hour mark. I'm thinking I should change the oil after the first year just to be safe.

If you saw 2 Five Star Reviews and no other feed back like I did, you, like myself, probably thought it was a bogus review. I still don't know, but I do know, for now, the first time I used it, rates 5 stars. This unit came with 3 chopper blades, all parts, including grind plates and chopper blades ALL stainless steel and sturdy and hella sharp. I ground up over 60lbs of meat and about 10 lbs of chicken necks, that went through easy as a bag of Cheetos but the 20 lbs of turkey necks gave a bit of a problem. When I put a whole one through, when the large end was going through, the unit jammed. No reverse, so I just took it apart and worked that sucker out. The rest of the necks I had chopped down to more manageable sizes, (about 2-3 inch lengths,) and it worked great...loud but worked fine. The outside of the unit started getting a bit hot, (maybe 20 lbs of turkey necks? yep, probably) but it never missed a beat. I won't use turkey necks again, as chicken necks are so easy and not a risk. I ground carrots, sweet potatoes, (hard as rocks,) Kale, (I'm making dog food,) and I loved it. I ground 70 lb of combined product and it took 2 hours...but I was butchering beef hearts too, so this thing rocks! Anyway, it's got good warranties and so far it's good voodoo. Buy it.

I had been shopping for a couple years for a grinder to replace my low cost MTM for processing wild game. I had borrowed my neighbors LEM with #12 head. Its a great grinder with lots of power, and I had considered duplicating his choice, but there were two parameters which lead me to this grinder. 1) I wanted the hub to be higher off the working surface. The grind piles get high and its no fun to slow down to knock down the pile. To me this is one of the most important parameters, but it is not even mentioned in the descriptions of any of the grinders. 2) I wanted something a bit more compact that would be easier to store. This grinder delivered. It uses the same grind plates at the LEM (both are #12 heads). I ordered a hubbed plate for ease of removal. All the parts are stainless. The auger is shorter than the LEM, and I was concerned it would not grab and feed the meat as well, but after one use, my concerns were eased. You dont even need a stomper with this thing. It has a large throat, to drop the meat in, and the meat gets pulled out of your hands. The grind shoots out the plate showing a lot of pressure is driving it. Lots of power.... it was the perfect grinder for me. The fact that its quite a bit cheaper than the LEM or Weston (Both also made in China) is a Bonus.

very sturdy and can grind venison more than well

Very disappointed both of the grinding blades broke just from dropping on the counter !! Now the grinder is useless !! Where can I get more of these ?

La utilizo para moler maíz y es una maravilla me encanta mi masa sale suave además no es ruidosa y es extremadamente rápida reduce muchísimo mis tiempos de fabricación

Works very well

Yep. Just needed this for a once maybe twice a month bone grinding. 😁 My cats are bougie and only eat raw, so this has made things much more convenient and easy. The video is my very first use. I only grind thigh bones, and this griped them and ground them very quickly. Easy to put together (although Ive used many different meat grinders for years in restaurants). Also easy to clean without any weird crevices. So, for occasional, small bone grinding ( I do maybe up to 4-5lb bones a month)....very nice. 👍👍

This is an excellent meat grinder. I purchased it to make it easier to make my own raw dog food, which meant that it would have to be able to grind small bones. It works incredibly! It grinds quickly, smoothly. It can be a bit loud, but it didn't seem any louder than any other meat grinders of this calibre. I love how I can grind so much meat in such little time. You won't regret this purchase!

Have not had any issues and does exactly what I need it to.

This machine is a beast! I absolutely love it! I do chicken backs with bone for raw dog food and it powers through it like a beast. I even do my veggies 🥕 broccoli 🥦 etc with no problems at all. Way easier to have it all in one bowl to mix up. What used to take me most of the day to do a month worth of 1lb meals is all done in 2 hours including clean up. I was hesitant because of the price, but it’s been worth every penny.

It is heavy but it is solid. We make our own cat food and this makes the job very easy.

Good product
