all!

I am going to invest in a meat grinder come sausage filler,I do not wish to spend a small fortune at present,I have looked at the Andrew James one which has an 1800watt motor.I just felt this would be stronger than the Orbits and Lloytrons-which I do not think these are up to much.Any others which I do not know about?

Your views and opinions please!

I have an Orbit and am very pleased with it. We can do 30+lbs. of sausages in an afternoon with it. It depends, I suppose, whether you need it for domestic or commercial use.

Hi Sylvia,I hope I did not offend,

I am just in the habit of paying a little more to get better quality

,the orbit is very cheap I have to say,if it works on such large amount then it must be good!
Thank you for your input! x

12 kilos in an afternoon you will be slitting your wrists
are you intending doing more in the future IE maybe half a pig or even a whole pig even doing two at the same time the grinder /fillers are not as good as separate grinders and fillers the one northern tools sells is very good for beginners and if you get a sausage stuffer from weishenfelder it is very good and being hand operated you work at your own pace in the end the choice is yours

Hi Robert,
I just had a look and Northern tools have that hand operated vertical sausage stuffer-but it is out of stock until March $:-\$ I can wait though,seems like a good idea going at my own pace!Thank you for that!
