Maxwolf Sausage Filler Sausage Maker Sausage Stuffer 15L 33LB Stainless Steel Electric Sausage Filler with 4 Sausage Stuffer Tubes (15Liter Electric)

BEWARE - The two 5-star reviews, herein, are NOT VERIFIED PURCHASERS! They could be the sellers themselves.The stuffer arrived on Saturday, August 20, 2016. Opened it the following morning and delicately removed it from the box. Found the cylinder to be ajar. One side is attached to the stuffer's side walls while the other side is not. The shaft/spindle came already screwed all the way down with the plastic piston attach and, consequently, it is at the bottom of the cylinder. Can't crank piston up because the cylinder is ajar, can't get cylinder out because the shaft/spindle, and attached cylinder, are in the way.It is puzzling as to how this happened. Box not damaged. I am inclined to believe it was done by a disgruntled employee, or something like that. In other words, to me, it looks like an intentionally improper assembling of the device which renders it useless. But if it is the result of being dropped from a great height (and then, probably, re-boxed), the shaft/spindle, the piston and other parts may have been damaged... although that is not apparent at this point.Contacted the seller that same morning, on Sunday, August 21st, at 7am. Provided the same description as shown above in the first paragraph. Stated that I would be immediately writing a negative review and attaching pictures soon thereafter. Explained that my fear was that they might be dumping damaged units and I wanted to alert potential buyers.I intend to attach pictures before the day is over. If this review has not been altered post-Aug. 21st, then you will know that the seller has not taken satisfactory measures to remedy this problem. I will make a note (here) if seller fails to respond.UPDATE: I recommend that you AVOID THIS SELLER !!!I took over 30 pics of this piece of USED junk and sent 14 of those pics to the seller (Vevor). After a couple of bogusly-justified delays, Vevor issued a full refund and then abandoned this junk to me to dispose of. Worse than that, they refused to compensate me for all the difficulty they put me through. I told Vevor that I would buy a Maxwolf Sausage Filler Sausage Maker Sausage Stuffer 3L 7LB Stainless Steel Sausage Filler with 4 Sausage Stuffer Tubes (3Liter) (ASIN: B01E8N2PLG), AND change my review of their stuffers to a more positive one, if they would do the following:• Guarantee that the 3L 7LB stuffer, which they would be sending to me, would be brand new and in good working order.• Guarantee that they would immediately issue a full refund if I, again, received a piece of unusable junk.• Ship the 3L 7LB stuffer to me overnight at no additional shipping cost to me.• Provide me with a discount on the 3L 7LB stuffer purchase, to compensate me for all the trouble I’ve been put through. --- They refused.So here is a summary of my experience with Vevor:• If you act in good faith and order what they represent as a new sausage stuffer from them, they may send you a piece of USED unusable junk.• If you receive a defective stuffer, Vevor will expect you to provide them with pictures to prove that they did not live up to their end of the bargain.• Upon sending them that proof, they will waffle and delay while suggesting that it was someone else’s fault.• If your proof is overwhelming, they will eventually issue a full refund.• They will not agree to do anything to compensate you for all the trouble they put you to. They will not agree to quickly get another of their stuffers to you. They will not offer to even give you $1 off on the purchase of another stuff from them. You are the one who will suffer the full burden of their mistake.Picture summary:Note: The stuffer is locked in place. Can’t get the cylinder out, can’t crank the piston up. So far, I have been unable to upload the following pics but I shall continue to try.•Picture #1 - Straight-on shot.  You can see that the stuffer’s spout is aimed to the left.  That’s because the cylinder is disconnected from its connectors on the left side and forced backwards.  You can also see that the spindle is cranked all the way down.  This is exactly as it came out of the box.  Notice the crud along the top edge of the cylinder.•Picture #2 - From right side.•Picture #3 - Here you can see how far back the cylinder it tilted.•Picture #4 - Best shot for seeing how much the cylinder is twisted in the frame.•Picture #5 - The cylinder cannot be moved from the position which can be seen in this pic.  It is wedged in this position with no ‘jiggle-room.’•Picture #6 - Front, top, left. •Picture #7 - Front, top, right.  •Picture #8 - Front, bottom, right. •Picture #9 - Front, bottom, left.  •Picture #10 - Front, bottom, left.  •Picture #11 - Back, bottom, right (the back shot of pic #10).  •Picture #12 - In moving the stuffer around, I noticed that it wobbled.  I looked around my kitchen for something which I knew was very flat.  With a level I verified that a piece of butcher block was very flat.  I positioned the stuffer upon the butcher block and the stuffer wobbled, in the same manner, regardless of how I turned it.  I used a shim to level the stuffer and marked the shim at the spot where it leveled-up the stuffer.•Picture #13 - Back view of cylinder.  Notice the crud along the top edge of the cylinder.•Caliper pic - Here I have taken a caliper to measure the height of the distance that the stuffer is out-of-level.  That measurement is 2.86mm.  Assuming it was manufactured properly, pressure must have been applied in order for it to be racked to this degree.•‘Crud’ pic (not numbered) - As you can see in Picture #1, #13, and in this unnumbered pic, there is some kind of crud around the entire upward circumference of the cylinder’s outer rim.  Any objective person would conclude that it took some time for this crud to deposit itself, maybe years of sitting exposed on a shelf in a commercial kitchen?  So it appears that, at least the cylinder is old, and possibly well-used.In this crud pic you can see that I was able to remove the crud on the right side of the cylinder.  It would not come off with water or soap and water.  I resisted the desire to use steel wool but was able to get some of this crud off with a non-abrasive liquid cleanser and a lot of elbow grease.  It appears to be caked-on oil which accumulated and hardened over time.
