Stainless Steel Potato Ricer with 3 Discs
$26.99
A masher squashes potato against the bottom of the pan and leaves lumps; beat it harder and it turns gluey. Pressing it through small holes instead gives fluffy strands that take butter and milk evenly.

How to use it
Ricing a pan of potatoes
- 01
Choose a disc
Drop the fine, medium or coarse disc into the bottom of the basket.
- 02
Fill while hot
Add two or three boiled potatoes, cut in half if large. Skins can stay on.
- 03
Squeeze over the pan
Rest the hook on the pan rim and press the handles together. Lift, scrape off the skins and go again.
Close up
Built to squeeze hard
Long handles
The lever arms make the press 29.5 cm long, with silicone grips, so your weight does the work rather than your wrist.
Basket
Holds two or three halved potatoes at a time. The flat plunger presses everything down evenly.
Pan rest
The black loop opposite the handles hooks over the rim of a pan or bowl so the ricer stays put while you squeeze.
Three discs
Fine, medium and coarse plates drop into the base of the basket and lift out to change or wash.
Size guide
| Disc | Holes | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Fine | Smallest | Smooth mash, gnocchi, baby food |
| Medium | Middle | Everyday mash, fishcakes |
| Coarse | Largest | Swede, parsnip, a rougher texture |
Hole sizes are as photographed by the supplier; no measurements are given.
Compared
Ricer or masher?
A masher is fine for a rough, rustic mash. For a smooth pile at Sunday lunch, or for gnocchi, the ricer is the better tool.
| Compared | This productPotato ricer | Wire masher | Electric hand mixer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lumps left | None | Some | None |
| Risk of gluey mash | Low | Low | High |
| Potatoes can stay unpeeled | Yes | No | No |
| Makes gnocchi dough | Yes | No | No |
Rice potatoes while they are hot. Cold potato is stiff and needs far more pressure.
Questions
No. Halve them and press them with the skins on; the skin stays in the basket and you scrape it out between pressings.
Fine for smooth mash and gnocchi, medium for everyday mash, coarse for a rougher texture or for swede and parsnip.
Two or three medium halves. A whole pan of mash for four people usually takes five or six presses, scraping out the skins between each one.
It weighs 550 g and the long handles multiply the force of your grip. Hot, floury potatoes such as Maris Piper or King Edward press through with very little effort.
Cooked swede, carrot, parsnip and sweet potato, or cooked spinach to squeeze out water. The supplier also lists squeezing lemons and soft fruit.

Thanksgiving mashed potatoes perfected
Used this for Thanksgiving and got more compliments on the mashed potatoes than the turkey. Ten pounds of Yukon Golds, boiled with the skins on, pressed straight into a big pot with butter and warm milk. No lumps at all and they weren't gluey like when I whip them with a hand mixer. My brother in law went back for thirds. It's staying out on the counter until Christmas.

Good mash, tough on my hands
The mash is lovely, but squeezing the handles takes more grip than I've got these days with my arthritis. My son does it for me when he visits.

Sturdy lever
Sturdy lever action. Handles are long enough that it doesn't take much force.

Fluffy bangers night
Fluffy and light, not gluey. Exactly what I wanted with onion gravy.

Great, only takes a few potatoes
Gives lovely mash but only fits two or three potatoes at a time, so a big Sunday roast for eight means a lot of filling and scraping.

Parsnip mash
Coarse disc for parsnips with a bit of butter and black pepper. Lovely rough texture alongside a roast chicken.
