This Potato Masher from OXO does a super job of mashing potatoes but has a few disadvantages over the traditional wire masher. Since the tines on the nylon masher are very narrow, the potatoes get easily clogged. The small tines also make it difficult to clean. OXO also makes the traditional wire masher out of stainless steel with the OXO grip. That's the one to get.Best Deals for OXO Good Grips Nylon Potato Masher
My wife is a huge mash potato fan, so I thought I would purchase this product for her. Day 1, while she was mashing with family in town, it snapped at the base. Later, after complaining to my fellow 'Oxo' users, they all said the same thing..."it happened to me to" & "get the metal base". I guess we got about a dollar a minute out of it (basically $5 of a product). So...in conclusion, pay the extra few bucks and get a more durable product.Honest reviews on OXO Good Grips Nylon Potato Masher
The only redeeming thing about this product is its comfortable handle. We bought nylon since our last metal masher had to be tossed due to rusting. We spend more time getting the potato out of the narrow masher segments than we spend mashing. It is very frustrating. Stick with the wider segments. We have since replaced it with another metal one with wider spaces an Oxo one with a comfortable handle. I will give 5 stars to Oxo's customer service. I contacted them about my disappointment and they are giving me a replacement product of equal value.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for OXO Good Grips Nylon Potato Masher
I've had this thing for 10 years. It's inexpensive and the build quality is high. It's all nylon, but it's thick nylon. Of course, it has the famous rubber OXO handle, so that's good too.Now, for the bad. The mashing head (or whatever you want to call it) is huge and probably won't fit in a drawer, so storage of this thing is really annoying. I have to keep it standing up in a cabinet next to my cheese grater and a few other odd-shaped things. It is difficult to clean. Food gets caught up in it easily. It takes longer to mash properly than any other masher I've used.
I'd give this one a pass. There are many other highly rated ones for only a couple dollars more.
A potato masher is one of those things that's probably going to last you the rest of your life, so don't make the mistake I did or you'll be annoyed by this thing every time you use it for years to come.
