Product Description
Product Description
With conventional potato mashers, some of the potato is naturally pushed out to the sides with each downward stroke, away from the mashing holes. This means more time and effort are required to complete the job. The Smasher potato masher has been designed to speed up the mashing process. Its specially designed head cups and traps potato firmly in place beneath the mashing plate, whilst its unique spring-loaded pump-action makes short work of the potato. Also perfect for puréeing other kinds of cooked vegetables and soft fruits. Dishwasher safe

As you may have noticed, most men have a limited range of household chores, and they tend to perform them with disproportionate fuss, and almost invariably the application of some type of mechanical device. Hence you are likely to find a man the master of mowing the lawn, perhaps hoovering, and possibly cooking activities that involve the use of a blender or some kind of over-designed gadget.
Well I am no exception.
This is the perfect over-designed gadget to satisfy the fuss I bring to the task of making mashed potato. And although this is obviously by no means a gender-specific piece of kitchen equipment, could only a man be bothered enough actually to review it?
The central claim of the Joseph Joseph masher is that it pushes the potato up and not out - thereby increasing the efficiency of the mashing process. And I say full marks to whoever was bothered enough to identify this as a problem that needed solving. Because darn me, they're right. It does indeed push the potato up, and therefore into the masher rather than away from it. The mash it makes is very smooth, and does seem to get to that consistency faster than with a conventional masher.
The only downside is that it gets clogged with potato, and therefore needs banging against the side of the pan. This is true of any masher, but on this one it isn't clear where one should bash it, because the natural bash point is where the spring mechanism resides.
Hopefully Joseph Joseph will address this issue in Mk2 of this device. It'll give us chaps the chance to compare models. And write more reviews.

Having purchased this masher recently and used it several times already, I think this could possibly be the best masher ever made. It is easy to use, mashes potato perfectly AND as it's usually me who does the washing up the extra bonus is that it's is SO easy to clean even if you forget to rinse it straight after using. My old masher was a killer to try and clean if potato had dried on a bit.

Quite simply the best potato masher on the market - and easy to clean!

No lumps!
Brilliant design, mash potatoes with minimal effort and no lumps, as good a result as when using a potato ricer and much less fiddlely.

Does what it says
Yes the masher does what it says and pushes the potato up through the masher, but it is more work than my old masher and it takes longer to get the smooth mash that I like. Read more

Joseph Masher - takes some time to get used to!
Have to say on first couple of uses it was very messy. You do get used to it though and it does make mashing more fun. Is quite large in the utensils drawer, but does look good.

Another superb item from Joseph Joseph!
This is a wonderful tool and very easy to use. Rinse under tap as soon as mashing is done. Dependable product from this maker, as always.
