Amazon.com Review
This masher, which has a 3-1/2-inch oval head, is just one of the high-quality Profi Plus tools WMF makes for every conceivable kitchen task. The head's shape and relatively small size make it a precise instrument that avoids the wrist and hand strain extra-large mashers can cause. The head is highly polished on the top but unpolished on the bottom to prevent slippage when crushing potatoes, carrots, or apples--further evidence of Profi Plus tools' careful engineering. Contemporary European in style, the masher is made of 18/10 stainless steel and is beautifully balanced, with a satin-finish, cylindrical handle, a heavy-duty hanging loop, and a sturdy, stiff split shaft. Seamless construction ensures cleaning ease. This tool is dishwasher-safe, durable, and a joy to use for serious cooks and novices alike. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews

A great product
I was suspicious about purchasing it since it is made in China; when I got it I was pleasantly surprise. This is a great potato masher. It is very sturdy and ergonomic. The head is actually oval unlike other mashers that are round or square and because of this design it fits into a pot much nicer. I didn't get the Rosle masher because I don't like the ring around the base of the handle. I may want to use two hands to mash because I have small hands and that idea would not work well for me. This masher is really great.

Simply Works
This is a sturdy masher that makes short work of potatoes. I wished it were a little less expensive, but it does its job well and looks like it will last a long time. I like the round mashers better than the wire versions because they reach the edges of the pan more completely.

So much easier
My old masher was the plastic kind with lines that go back and forth, that you have to stop and clean out every ten seconds. Never again! We are a small household, so I usually only mash 2-3 potatoes at once, but with this masher, they are mashed in 1-2 minutes or less (seriously never more than 2 min.!), with no stopping to clean it out. You just keep mashing and before you know it, you've got mashed potatoes. The only drawback is this masher is above-average in price, so I gave it 4/5 stars, but I would have given it 4.5/5 or 90% if I could have. If you don't mind paying almost twenty bucks for a potato masher, get this one. It really works great.
