Negative Positive
Title: Cheap, cheap, cheap
Review: I bought this for home made tomato sauce after reading the positive reviews on Cooks Illustrated, and on first use was immediately disappointed. The item is flimsy and did not effectively process canned whole tomatoes. After about 20 minutes of struggle, my wife walked in and said "oh, I have an old one of those from my grandmother". She dug out of the garage an ancient Moulinex metal food mill that must have been at least 40 years old and it worked beautifully. Sadly, these appear to no longer be available, but I can't recommend this model at all. I'll give it a shot for applesauce or mashed potatoes, but am not optimistic. It gets two stars primarily because it was relatively inexpensive. For what it's worth, I've made several purchases based on Cooks Illustrated recommendations and this is the first one that I haven't been happy with.
Is the review positive or negative?
