Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder Review

Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder Review

Unlike the old bulky meat grinders, the Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder weighs only 2.55 lbs and has a suction base to secure the machine while you operate it. This means that this machine is both stable to use and easy to crank the light handle.

This grinding machine also comes with 2 mincing plates: coarse and fine. The coarse mincing plate can be used for grinding types of First Grind, Chili meat or Chorizo. Whereas the fine grinding plate can be used for grinding types of sausages and hamburgers.

The Gideon Meat Grinder is also dish-washer safe. You can simply take it apart and leave most of the parts in the dishwasher while wiping the base off, the non-dishwasher-friendly part.

This Meat Grinder review will help you learn more about the features in more details.

Feature Analysis

1. Strong Build

The Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder comes with a full build of heavy-duty plastic and stainless steel. This makes the meat grinder tough enough for continuous, small-scale use. Plus, the non-corrosive materials make the meat grinder longer lasting.

2.  Cutting Discs

This meat grinder comes with 2 separate stainless steel mincing plates: a coarse mincing plate and a fine mincing plate.

The coarse mincing plate has larger holes that make it possible for you to slice meat into larger chunks or chop vegetables. Whereas the fine mincing plate is mainly meant for more specific use. Like for grinding the meat into strings for sausages, or bits that are easier to turn into paste for making hamburger patties or meatballs.

3. Portability and Stability

This meat grinder weighs only 2.55 lbs. and has dimensions of 10.9 x 6.7 x 6.1 inches. At such a small size and light weight, the meat grinder is easy to carry around.

The meat grinder’s base also comes with a suction to hold itself in place. Unlike the traditional clamps that can only be fitted on a surface with a gap in the bottom of the surface, this machine’s suction base makes it possible for you to fit it on spots clamps cannot reach. Plus, the suction base makes it next to impossible for the grinder to wobble while you use it.

4. Safe and Efficient

The blades inside the grinder are cased in within the grinder. That makes the grinder less prone to causing injuries.

Furthermore, the grinder also comes with a meat pusher to make the meat go down into the machine and grind easily. This makes the Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder more ergonomically efficient.

Final Verdict

As seen in our Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder review, the Gideon Meat Grinder, although has decent features, may not be the number one hand crank meat grinder because of being fragile. However, its ergonomic efficiency and versatility are well suited for domestic or small-scale use. Additionally, the Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder has its suction for added stability.

In this Gideon Hand Crank Manual Meat Grinder review of ours, we hope that we have managed to give you a clear idea of the things this meat grinder can do. For those who expect to own a meat grinder that is portable, multi-purpose and well-suited for domestic or small-scale use, this might be your befitting choice.
