I have one & feel it makes really smooth mash potato, it's especially useful when making potato croquettes. |

I find mashing in the ordinary way and then putting in the microwave for about 2minutes will make a nice fluffy mash. I do that when it needs to be a bit warmer when I've dished up everything else. |

I love my potato ricer, but don't use it all the time. It is really good for the topping on shepherd's pie or cottage pie. It comes out really light and fluffy. |

Ah Carol, I am keeping my trusty masher just in case I do not get on with the ricer, but cannot summonds up the 'elbow grease' to get the power behind it these days. The ricer makes long strips of potato, in much the same way as if you had used a cheese grater. This suits us on top of a Shepherds Pie, as it is stodgy. |

They're supposed to be really good. But in my house, I fear, it would join the 'never used kitchen utensils' collection. |
