thank you for your input. I will let the company know. could you help me out by letting me know, what a good price for this unit should be? that way I can speak to the company and give the people a voice. i would appreciate it. thank you.
Yup, I saw that too. "We DON'T sell parts!" If you need blades or plates, buy them localy" What a load of crap! People keep asking about parts and Vevor keeps saying "Our machines have a one year warranty" So if a switch, auger, motor, pan, or anything else goes bad? U R SCREWED!
I put in an order for this very same meat grinder because of this video. When my package arrived, I knew instantly that it wasn't as described, it was a possible return and it was dirty. The company tried to give me the runaround but eventually returned my payment in full. Although my meat grinder from VEVOR is used and a little scuffed up in some places, I was able to clean it and hopefully I'll be able to get a little use out of it, as I don't know what the circumstances were behind the return.
They send them out for free for people to show off on videos etc. But when you go to order them (and actually pay for them) there can be issues, i had the same situation with recieving a some-what "used" grinder. and talking with their cs wasnt easy at all.
😆😆😆 well I am NOW AN OFFICIAL AFFILIATE with the company so there will be more to come and tons of savings. just let me know what you are looking for and if we sell it I will be able to save you some cash.😉
Finally vevor review in real life! How do you like it? I'm debating between Lem 500w mighty bite Aluminum or this Vevor grinder. Seems like a good quality stainless steel and powerful 🤔
I have them both the LEM #8 and this one. They are both great but the VEVOR is almost $300.00 cheaper. I’ll be selling my LEM on fb marketplace very soon and keep the VEVOR.

R R 1 second ago I have been trying to find out the size of this grinder #8, #12, #22, #32 I have seen 2 different answers One says it a #22 another says #12 which is it ??
Awesome video bud! I’ve been looking at grinders and this one looks solid and has a better cost than ones I’ve seen at cabelas. Usually the ones at cabelas are only 1/2 to 3/4 horsepower. Have you had it bog down or overheat when grinding a lot of meat?
I do not mean to sound controversial but the Cabela's grinder is far superior. They can call it 1.5 hp but at the end of the day that doesn't tell the whole story. Really what that means is that's how much electricity it consumes which doesn't necessarily equate to output power. In other words the Vevor consumes 1118 watts (1.5 hp). Vevor rounds that number however to 1100 watts Just by looking at it, I would call it fairly equivalent to the Cabela's 3/4 hp grinder. Both have an approximate throat size of 2 inches. The Vevor doesn't even assign a plate size to theirs nor an overall weight, and I suspect they do that for a reason that would only detract from someone buying it. A well built motor that efficiently transfers the power it consumes is going to weigh a lot more. The Vevor 1.5 hp claims to grind up to 330 pounds per hour. In comparison the Cabela's 3/4 hp claims to grind 8-10 pound/min (480 - 600 pounds / hour). That alone speaks volumes. The Vevor looks heavy duty but it's not or they would increase the throat size and the cutting plate size to maximize output. One more important thing to consider. An $80 grinder selling at Walmart and likely weighs 10 pounds or less has a 575 watt motor. That 575 watt motor converts approximately 3/4 hp. Now compare that same grinder to the Cabela's. There is no comparison is there?
@@jimdent351 doesn’t sound controversial at all! Thanks for the info, that’s exactly what I wanted to know! I’ve held off on buying a grinder until I figure out which will be best in the long run. I was skeptical of the vevor brand because it sounded to good to be true. I’ve heard good things about the meat brand grinders, do you have an opinion on them?
@@treeshaker3979 After leaving my long winded comment to you I did find the weight of the Vivor grinder, and as suspected it weighs in at 52.9 pounds. The Cabela's 3/4 hp weighs 52 pounds thus confirming my suspicions that the Vivor 1.5 hp is comparable to the Cabela's 3/4 hp in that regard. If I were you I'd wait again for Cabela's to have another sale. They put them on sale regularly for at least $100 or $150 off. Depending on how much you grind I suspect that the 3/4 will serve you just fine. I have the 1 hp and find it to be too big for what I do, and I wish I'd bought the 3/4 one. I grind up to 50 pounds of pork at a time and I get through it in the matter of only a few minutes. It takes much longer to clean than it does to grind up that much meat. The Cabela's grinder also comes with more. They include a sausage stuffing kit that Vivor doesn't have, and you can buy all kinds of other processing equipment from Cabela's to accessorize your grinder. Cabelas sells meat mixers, jerky slicers, tenderizers, and a food mill for processing tomatoes and other fruits like apples into sauce. I have purchased that particular accessory and love it. It makes short work of processing tomatoes every year. I know I must sound like a salesman for Cabela's but I'm not. I just love their grinder that much, and when it goes on sale it's a hell of a bargain for what you get.
@@jimdent351 thanks again for the reply and useful info! I’ll be keeping my on cabelas grinders that go on sale. I’d say that I’d use my grinder on about 10 deer a year so do you think that the 3/4 hp will hold up for that? Also, I didn’t know they made a food mill attachment like you talked about. Me and my family use a hand operated Johnny apple seed food mill for tomatoes and such and it works great but I might be interested in the attachment you’re talking about for them larger harvests and canning days!
@@treeshaker3979 With these deer are they all processed at the same time or does it happen over the entire season where you're only processing one every week or two? I would say that if you're processing under 150 pounds at a time then you should be alright with the 3/4. However you might want to consider the 1hp unit too. With the 3/4 unit the meat you put into it needs to be cut smaller than what the 1 hp machine does so that's a consideration too. The Cabela's 1 hp unit weighs a hefty 64 pounds which is essentially 10 pounds more than the Vivor 1.5 hp. I can't tell you what to do but it sounds to me that the 1 hp machine could be your best option. Keep in mind though, if you occasionally pick up meat at the grocery store such as pork when it goes on sale and you're only grinding 15 or 20 pounds then the 1 hp might be an overkill. There's where I find my 1 hp model to be too big for me, so I would never advise anyone to go bigger unless they are looking for bragging rights and a sore back. Even if I was processing 2 or 3 elk at a time I'd never want anything bigger than the 1 hp. Cabela's does make a 1.5 hp & a 1.75 hp machines but they are ridiculously massive in size and weight. Hell their 1.5 model weighs in at 75 pounds, and I'm certain it would be happy to grind up the Vivor once it's chewed through all that meat. lol All kidding aside though. If you don't mind the extra weight difference between the 3/4 and 1 hp units then you might be happiest with the 1 hp. You'll save a little more time cubing the meat to prepare it for grinding too. The Cabela's grinders get very good reviews, but there are a few people who haven't been happy with them. In most of these cases they are over tightening the locking ring that holds the auger in place. In which case that happens with all grinders including the comparable LEM lineup too.

If you look at countries like the Philippines, they use the same shape of plug for some of their outlets, but it's 220 volts there. so don't go just by the plug shape. If it says 220, it's probably 220.
