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

Rating: - Great Masher
Far more effective than the wire mashers. For sweet potatoes, it takes only a few strokes to get a good mash.
Rating: - excellent masher
As per promised and reviewed by a recent cooking magazine, product functions as promised. No regrets. the best.
Rating: - Strangely tiny but powerful
I bought this after experiencing difficulty making mashed potatoes with a ricer and previous ho-hum experience with other potato mashers. When I took it out of the box, it seemed awfully small, not the industrial strength masher I thought I'd ordered. This masher seems to rip through potatoes without having to use much strength. It leaves a creamy rather than chunky potato stream and the head doesn't become mired in a glutinous potato prison. Quick, efficient, it makes silky smooth mashed potatoes easy to produce.

This device turned out fully, light and flavorful mashed potatoes with reasonably little effort. The tool's round handle was easy to grip for this Senior Citizen. The rounded edges adjsuted to the curves of the saucepan.
Rating: - Well made, does the job.
This potato masher is excellent. The small holes mash the potatoes evenly and quickly so over mashing is not an issue. It's very strong, well made and easy to hold. The extra height makes it great for mashing large amounts of food in a deeper pot. I also use it for turnips and I like it more than any other masher I've tried.
