Barton 1100W Electric Commercial #12 Meat Grinder w/Cutting Blade Stainless Steel Mincer Sausage Maker #12 Grinder Size

Kinda loud but with power comes noice I guess cleaning it can be a pain though so buy yourself a good baby bottle type brush to get in there and clean it...

Es un buen material funciona bien rápido Para mi uso

This Barton 1100W Electric Commercial #12 Meat Grinder is a beast! It’s heavy-duty, loud, and powerful, but it gets the job done. Whether you’re cutting through meat with bone or just grinding up food for your dogs, this grinder can handle it. It’s also surprisingly easy to clean.We plan to use it once a month to prepare fresh meals for our dogs, and it’s already proving to be a game-changer. If you’re cooking with your boys, making raw dog food, or just need a strong grinder, this one’s highly recommended.However, the machine does get hot and produces a lot of heat. To clean it you need an Allen wrench, also known as a hex key to clean the back and of the connection to the grinder and the grinder engine, which is not provided But you can get at your local tool store.

This is my 5th meat grinder. I tried manual machines and not easy to use. tried electrical machines from the Kitchen-aid which attaches to the mixer to the stand alone grinders. They work, but they are slow and They tend to jam. I built a grinding station with a #32 manual meat grinder and a 1/2 HP motor to drive the wheel on the grinder. Now that was very good and fast and it served me great. With this said, it was very heavy, not easy to clean, parts came with the grinder will rust, had to be dried and coated with oil. I replaced the parts I could with stainless steel parts plus had to do some modifications to make things fit well. At the end I spent more than $350 for a complicated Machine to use and store. This Barton machine does the work very efficiently. Easy to clean. easy to store. Quiet. All stainless steel. No tools needed to take it apart. Very powerful. No jamming. It is awesome.I would buy it again but I don't think I would need to. I highly recommend it to all my friends and family.Excellent machine!

Great and amazing quality! Commercial grade as advertised!

Works great, we do our own dog food. Grinds chicken legs with bone.

Absolutely amazing. I had no idea they people still manufacture really solid, high quality stuff. I am blown away.

Buyer beware is the best way to start this review on the Tangkula offering of this "Made in China" product. I can't mention a brand name as it does not have one. It does have a nice little plate that identifies itself as a Model EP21595 as well as 110 volts and "Made in China" Any further markings do not exist.We started this purchase in hopes to find a replacement for our aging meat grinder that gave us faithful service for so many years and many hundreds of pounds of sausage and hamburger meat. Being we are fortunate to harvest several hogs and deer every season that we process ourselves.Upon receiving the item we unpacked the grinder finding the motor to being heavy which was a good sign for an advertised "commercial" meat grinder. Then unpacking the tray that you fill with meat to feed the grinder was equivalent to a soda can being flimsy flexing and easily bent. So we decided it would not be suitable for large amounts of meat to be added to this tray but as long as it works it could be ignored.Next step was to disassemble the grinder spout from the machine to clean before it's first use as normal procedure for a food processing item. This is where you find to do so requires removal of 6 bolts that attach the grinding spout to the grinder. These have just enough clearance to use an open in wrench to slowly remove them as a socket can't be used. This is where you find the screws threads are not properly cut causing difficulty to remove due to binding from interference in the threads. I am fortunate as tools of my trade include a tap and die set which I used to clean up the threads on the bolts and holes they thread into enough to keep from binding.So we now realize that every time this grinder is used it will require these 6 bolts to come out for cleaning. We accepted that even though all other grinders we have ever used or looked at have an easy to remove threaded knob bolt to aid in quick disassembly. Obviously long term or frequent use was ever considered for this "commercial" appliance.Now it is time to grind some meat and it performed flawlessly and had good power to quickly go through about 40lbs of muscle tissues from a hog. My wife throws out all connective tissue and bone and all uses extremely clean and processed muscle tissue. This went smoothly other than having to slowly disassemble those 6 bolts again to properly clean and put away. We did find nice black marks everywhere the grinder sits though as the rubber for the feet are in constant deteriation. Those marks do clean up easily though but is something to be aware of.A few weeks go by and we now have a couple large hogs and deer to do so bring out the grinder hoping to make short work of the pile of nice clean meat we have to process. This is where the grinder quits working into the first pound. Seems the worm auger has a screw in tip that drives the cutting blade which decided it couldn't hold together to turn the blade to cut clean muscle tissue with absolutely minimal load.Okay time to contact the manufacturer to see if we can get a replacement part. Now it gets good because replies come in the middle of the night in broken English. Cutting through it all we find that replacement parts are not available for this machine. So we now have a very heavy boat anchor that was bought to grind meat.I have contacted various parts suppliers to find no joy in a replacement part since this is a meat grinder with no name other than China. I also contacted a machine shop to see if they could help and found another unfortunate should that made the mistake and bought one of these. He too has a new boat anchor instead of a useful tool.We went to Cabala's and bought a meat grinder that carries a lifetime warranty, has many more features as well as being well made. We also have parts and accessories available for the new grinder that has already processed several hundred pounds of meat and likely will for years to come.Also be aware that this grinder is sold on Ebay and many other outlets with the seller using other names. Beware of this grinder as it is just another Chinese copy of a real product. They all give a broken English response that parts aren't available seperate.
