Norpro Stainless Steel Food Mill, One Size, Silver

I had been looking for a food mill for a while and saw this on the shelf. I didn't use it until my apple tree produced fruit nearly a year after the purchase. The food mill broke after just a few turns of the handle while attempting to process chopped and cooked (very soft) apples for apple sauce. The bushing that the crank shaft passes through is not at all well attached to the body of the food mill. After looking at the broken attachment, I was amazed that it lasted as long as it did. Prior to breaking, the food mill wasn't working all that well anyway. The angle of the blade is too shallow at the front edge and it wasn't scooping in the apple pieces. Given the length of time between the purchase and the first use, this item just went into the trash.
