Meat Mincer/Sausage Maker

[~Phoenix~]

Looking at a standalone unit, department store wise there is kenwood 440w motor or sunbeam 600w motor. Then there are eBay brands boasting bigger motors on cheaper units

The grinder will be more effective with a better motor - it is what does the work.

The other things to consider are how often you will be using it, and what exactly you will be using it for. The weaker the grinder, the more prep work you need to do prior to use; the smaller the amount of fat it can handle in your sausage mix; the higher the number of times you need to re-process the mix to achieve the consistency that you want... and so on.

Also investigate the cost of replacement blades and screens, how easily you can obtain them.

Of the brands you mentioned, I would be inclined toward the Sunbeam. If you plan on sing it quite often for long periods, or for a large volume of meat, then I would consider spending a bit more to buy a more sturdy and professional machine.
