Gourmia GMG525 Meat Grinder Review

The Gourmia GMG525 is a compact 500-watt home grinder with three stainless steel plates, an on/off/reverse switch, and sausage and kebbe attachments.

The KitchenAid KSMFGA is the plastic food grinder attachment for KitchenAid stand mixers.

It averaged 4.6 out of 5 from about 3,500 Amazon ratings in October 2026. If you already own a KitchenAid mixer, it’s the cheapest way to start grinding your own meat.
