Turboforce Cadet 2000 Series Electric Meat Grinder | 7-in-1 Multifunctional | Foot Pedal | Slicer/Shredder/Grater | Sausage Stuffer | Kubbe Maker | 4 Grinding Plates & More Included

I got it to make ground pork. It did a great job on it, quickly and without even working hard. This machine can go faster than I can and it is happy doing it, no struggle at all. You are always tempted to think you need to spend more, buy a commercial unit, buy the biggest unit. I'm glad I didn't spend $30 or $300 on this. By the time I did 2 pork loins and a Boston Butt, I was tired of cutting meat into strips. But you can just cut the meat into strips and not cube it which saved me a lot of effort. I recommend you get a good chef's knife and knife sharpener or whetstone instead of a $300 model. In the end, a very sharp knife is very important. You will spend the bulk of your time cutting the meat into strips, the grinding goes quick after the meat sliced and chilled.This is a nice, well made unit. It may not last forever, nothing ever does, but I think its a good solid product for its price point. I expect to be able to feel like I got my money's worth before it retires itself. I was glad we chose this brand after seeing the motor was powerful enough and it was easy to clean and assemble as well.Here are some items that made this job a joy last night:https://www.amazon.com/Kota-Japan-Whetstone-Sharpening-EFFORTLESS/dp/B079RB1X2N/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&qid=1589106318&sr=8-8&srs=20517664011&th=1 (although the Hessler's won't need this for a year or two probably)https://www.amazon.com/Hessler-Surgical-Stainless-Steel-Cutlery/dp/B017AHK370/ref=sr_1_1?crid=LKKIKY0WWR4R&dchild=1&keywords=hessler+knives&qid=1589106465&sprefix=hessler%2Caps%2C154&sr=8-1https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004OCLS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1https://www.amazon.com/OXO-Tot-Bottle-Nipple-Cleaner/dp/B0771FFWQ2?ref_=s9_apbd_otopr_hd_bw_bBHn6B&pf_rd_r=P60KR3DA94YVA7X4F048&pf_rd_p=1e37e747-e13d-59d1-8149-ad16826240a2&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-10&pf_rd_t=BROWSE&pf_rd_i=166780011These things are more important to have to do a good job than a huge, super expensive commercial unit. Those brushes made the unit easy to clean and you will be cleaning it often between grinds. Cleaning often is important. Being able to get the meat ready to grind is important. Be prepared and have the right stuff and its a lot easier and more fun.

I like my machine, I would recommend it, trust me you will not regret it at all 👍👍👍

Love it, works great

This is my first meat grinder and honestly it worked pretty well, you definitely didn’t want to force too much deer fat in with your meat or it would struggle. But it was easy to clean, assemble, it processed my meat, and nothing broke so I’m happy!

This is the first meat grinder I've ever had. I did a lot of research before I got it, and I honestly wasn't expecting it to work as well as it does. I read so much about how the smaller personal-use meat grinders can't do a lot, are slow, are cheaply made, etc. That has not been the case.I've mainly ground poultry, but I've also ground other meats and seafood. The parts that get messy are easily removable and cleaned. Just make sure you hand dry them all soon as you are done to avoid some of them having a tarnished look.Also, I recommend getting the pedal (if you don't already have a universal one from another appliance or tool). It makes the process so much easier.

I bought this for making hamburger out of deer meat. The reviews bragged it up how great it was. I bought it on 11/2020. We would grind approximately 40 lbs of meat once a year. We followed the directions of grinding only a few minutes then shutting it off to let it cool down. We noticed right out of the box it was super loud. You could hear it all over the house. So loud it would hurt our ears. On 12/2022 started grinding some meat. All it once it made an horrendous screeching noise and seized up. I took the cover off and found the plastic gears box had a huge crack in it and it had sent plastic shards into the plastic gears. Since I had a year left on the warranty I contacted the company. Right away they claimed it wasn't for grinding deer meat? Really? The description said meat grinder. It didn't say not for grinding deer meat. They said if I would pay shipping and handling back they would fix it. Shipping and handling would have cost almost as much as I paid for the grinder. I tossed it in the trash. It doesn't pay to go cheap on a meat grinder. Buy a commercial one with stainless steel everything. This grinder is for already ground meat and running it through to make sausage. Even then it will most likely overheat. If I could give it 0 stars I would. Cheap Chinese junk!

I received my Turboforce Cadet grinder a couple of days ago and just finished up grinding 20 lbs. of chuck roast into ground meat for making into hamburger. We are going to put some on the grill tonight and freeze the rest for later times. After I had the meat cubed, I put it in the freezer for about 15 minutes to cool it and make it firmer for grinding (as suggested) and then took it out and I was ready to grind. From the time I turned on the grinder and started dropping the meat in the grinder hole, it took a total of about 8 to 10 minutes and I was "DONE" - Fantastic! I have to tell you that I had the meat cubed about 3/4" x 3/4" x 3/4" and during the time I was grinding it, I only had to use the meat pusher twice. This thing just kind of pulled the cubes of meat into the grinder by itself.It took me about 5 minutes to clean up the parts of the grinder in hot water and some liquid dawn (also as suggested) and that was it - Totally Painless!OH, and get this. I Did Not notice when I purchased the grinder that it came with 2 Free Meat Claws and a Free Burger/Slider Making Press. I HATE forming burgers from ground meat and you have no idea how easy it was to make/form all of the burgers I had to make out of the 20 lbs. of ground meat as I think I ended up with close to 75 burgers including some sliders also to freeze. We are going to grill quite a few of them tonight as we have company coming over.Here's the deal with this product: Smooth, Fast, Quiet and Easy to Clean & I Love the Burger/Slider Maker/Press. What more can I say?
