How to choose the right Potato Mashers and Ricers

• Match the size and handle length to your pots and typical batch volumes, from small pans to deep stock pots.
• Choose heavy duty stainless steel or chrome nickel steel models for intensive daily use in busy kitchens.
• Decide between a traditional masher for rustic-style mash or a ricer for ultra-smooth, lump-free results.
• Consider ergonomic handles and non-slip grips to reduce fatigue during long prep shifts.
• For versatile menus, select ricers with interchangeable inserts to handle potatoes, root veg and fruit purees.
• Check compatibility with your existing storage and utensil racks to keep tools organised and accessible.

Care and maintenance

• Clean mashers and ricers promptly after use to prevent starch build-up and staining.
• Where suitable, wash in a commercial dishwasher, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
• Avoid harsh abrasives on chrome and stainless steel surfaces to maintain a smooth, hygienic finish.
• Regularly inspect joints, welds and moving parts on ricers for signs of wear or damage.
• Store tools dry and off the worktop to prevent contamination and accidental damage.
• Lubricate any hinges or moving mechanisms lightly if recommended by the manufacturer.
