Not made in the USA

For the serious home cook, they are well worth the cost. I purchased my All Clad food mill based on this previous experience, from a famous NYC gourmet/housewares retailer.
The food mill itself is beautifully made from top quality materials. The fit and finish of all components is excellent. But the design flaws are so glaring that I suggest you avoid All-Clad Food Mill entirely. What are the problems?
First, the narrow recesses at the bottom of the mill's bowl (into which you put the foods to be processed) are SO narrow and so precise that they fit only onto a ... Read More
