Editorial Reviews

Product Description

You could always mash your potatoes, but if you want a finer, fluffier consistency consider a ricer, favorite tool of fine chefs everywhere. You can use it for other root vegetables, making baby food and applesauce too.

HDTalking Shopping Review

Simply place this ricer over any bowl or pot, squeeze the gadget's handles, and mashed fruits and vegetables, especially potatoes, ooze right through. A nonslip knob helps hold it in place, and its soft handles have a comfortable grip. Great for mashed potatoes or for making your own baby food, it's made of stainless steel to withstand repeated use.

The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip, flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably, the pressure-absorbing, processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

High quality ricer
By L. Clough (Bedford, NH)  |  February 6, 2010
This was a gift for my sister-in-law. She was thrilled with it! It has a nice long handle, which was what she was looking for, and it is a nice size and has a nice feel, as do many Good Grips products.

Works well, BUT!!
By pac nw furn (Pacific Northwest)  |  January 16, 2010
A little on the small size, works well for for a couple, wouldn't want to rice potatoes for for a family of four with this. Easy to use, easy to clean, what else can you say about a potato rice.

Riced Potatoes?! Why yes!
By Gatzpup (United States)  |  January 9, 2010  | 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Thanks to the Food Network channel, I now know about ricing potatoes! After watching the television cooks do it, I decided to try it out for myself and choose this Oxo Good Grips Ricer. I'm very pleased with my purchase. The size is perfect. Many people have commented that it is too small, but I can get through 5 pounds of potatoes in no time at all. In fact, after the comments about it's size, I was expecting it to be smaller than it actually was. The handle is comfortable. I don't usually sit it directly on the bowl or pot when ricing, but you could easily do that if you had trouble gripping the handle and just push down on the lever instead of gripping. My 10 year old son likes to cook with me and he has to use that method (he can't grip it). I included a photo so you could see it's size in relation to my hands. The potatoes come out perfect - no lumps (although I hear some people actually LIKE lumps?). Anyway, this is a terrific ricer - clean up is easy too. A simple rinse gets most of the potato residue off and then I put it in the dishwasher!

Works great!
By Kitty_meeow_meeow (Illinois)  |  January 1, 2010
I bought this ricer originally for making hash browns, and yes, it is the secret to crispy crunchy hash browns! It works incredibly well for mashed potatoes as well. The cushioned handle is easy on my hands and makes mashing the potatoes quick and fun. It's the one part of making dinner that everyone wants to get in on. Everyone wants to "squish" the potatoes! If you are looking for a solidly built ricer, you've found it.

At last, no lumps!
By R. Bukowski (Washington, DC)  |  December 7, 2009  | 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I always mashed potatoes with a hand mixer or masher, and always had a few lumps. The cooking shows all recommend a ricer, so I finally tried it -- and it works. The Oxo Good Grips products are known to be comfortable to use and this certainly is. I boiled the potatoes in the skins and riced them right after draining. The skins are left in the ricer (but can be chopped and added back in if you like skins) and the mash is silky smooth with absolutely no lumps. The butter and milk can be stirred in with a spatula (along with garlic or wasabi for a great taste) and you have a product you can be proud of.
