I had overlooked this video somehow Rick...But it is a very good comparison. I know a number of folks with the Chef's Choice and it works fine for them, albeit a little noisy. But good bang for the buck.
And something else....I noticed that they are using #8 sizes for recommendation. This is probably the "sweet spot" for size - vs - cost. And - most folks want to just try out making ground meat products like sausage - without getting a second mortgage, or selling a kidney...
. Again - it looks like very smart choice of sizing to do a 5 or even 10 lb batch ( bearing in mind that we work close to the fridge, keeping the meat COLD.....) that most of us will make.
Kudos!
