Great Product, Good Value Sep 13, 2010
By Roger Sircar This is a neat little gadget and it comes with two different size seives. Other comparable products have only one size seive. The stainless steel construction is sturdy and it is dishwasher safe (no wooden parts). I would recommend to wanna be chefs!

Midrange quality Jan 16, 2011
By Theo Made from stamped medium gauge stainless steel. Lots of nooks and crannies to clean. Need to peel and dice potatoes before ricing.
Wish it were heftier and had solid handles (which would make for easier clean-up).

a basic ricer and a good choice for spaetzle, but it's not stainless steel Aug 13, 2011
By James "Kibo" Parry This is one of the cheapest ricers on the market, probably because it isn't stainless steel.
The advantage this ricer has over most other potato ricers is that it comes with a second plate with larger holes (for making spaetzle, etc.) -- it's hard to find a large-hole ricer in the U.S. without paying a fortune to get one imported from Germany.
The stamped sheet metal construction makes this ricer a little harder to clean than some others. Also, I worry about how long it will last, as it's plated rather than stainless steel. (The box claims it's stainless steel, which is untrue. Amazon's description says it's chrome-plated, and looking at my ricer I can see that it is in fact plated.) I am concerned the plating will eventually flake off into my food, so I will always wash it gently, and dry it thoroughly.
The capacity of this ricer is about average -- It's not tiny, and it's not huge. You may have to cut large potatoes in half to fit them inside.
If you only want to rice potatoes, I recommend paying a little more for a stainless steel one. (The OXO Good Grips one works well -- it's stainless and costs $20.) OXO Good Grips Potato Ricer
If you want to rice potatoes and also make spaetzle, this is one of the few options available in the U.S. for a ricer with big holes, and certainly the cheapest.

Cheaply made, Handles bend easily Nov 01, 2011
By D. Barbee First use, nice soft baked potato in for ricing, bottom handle bet to the point of not being able to squeeze all the potato through the grate. Eve after an 'attitude adjustment' with pliers to straighten out the bent handle, there's to much flex to get the force needed to force the entire potato through the grate, always end up with about 1/4" inch of potato left in the bottom of the ricer.
Potato Ricer? Apr 10, 2012
By Rebecca Gerber I received this Ricer on time and in proper packaging. I used it once, with minimal success. When I attempted to use it again, it broke. I am not a big person(5'5" and 105lbs soaking wet) nor do I work out. The ring around the ricer "pot" bent like it was tin foil, the handle broke off of the ring...It was a mess and my family had to eat store bought Potato Gnocchi(SO SORRY!). I had hand washed this item before using it the first time, and then after the first use as well, drying it as soon as it was washed. It did not rust, but the overall quality of the piece is a zero. I threw it out. Save your money and put it towards a nice high quality ricer!
