The price was great and it appears to be a quality product. We tried using it only briefly for tomatoes, but had to keep stopping to unclog it. There was going to be so much waste milling tomatoes by this method. I pulled out my VitaMix blender and made short work of the process. It does run a bit on the loud side of the noise level. I wouldn't say this was a bad purchase; however, if I had realized I already had the best appliance for my application, I wouldn't have made this purchase.
