Prompt delivery, professionally packaged, all without problems. The machine itself: Stable constructed filler with sophisticated design. The operation is very simple. To clean the machine, the boiler can be removed and the stamp of the rack be removed (boiler sits in snap fasteners, punch is screwed to the Zanhstange). Cleaning is fast and easy. All stainless steel. The union nut of the fill tubes. The tubes themselves are made of plastic. For a small extra charge more (here on Amazon) is the machine also available with steel pipes. But plastic is not a problem. The filling goes smoothly. With the machine you can without much practice uniformly calibrated Sausages fill it's just such a pleasure. Excellent product at a reasonable price! Tom
Addendum March 2015 now believe that the plastic pipes are better than metal pipes. The plastic pipes are indeed milky but still transparent. So you see the meat and has during the filling better control. As far as my experience. Tom
