Yes, the BSB530XL All In One™ can produce smooth, rustic and creamy mashed potatoes.

The ricer/masher was the first accessory I used, and yes it will make rustic, smooth and creamy mashers depending on how you set it up.

Yes it did a lovely job. But the more rustic setting has become our new favorite. Love the machine. It has it limitations,but if you don't try and force too big or too hard (frozen meats) or items, it fabulously . We have used the potato attachment on cooked: cauliflower, parsnips, sweet potatoes and carrots. It works so quickly you have to take care not to over work the veggies.

yes !!! Makes things so easy and sample .. I suggest to cut the potatoes in half before dicing.

not sure of the consistency. this is better for soft items even mashed potatoes which is thick

Yeah that took some getting used to. It only glides one way... otherwise you'll get black plastic slivers in with your potatoes

Yes, they do. Just thoroughly cook your potatoes. It's a great mixer. Mine replaced a breville that only ran on high! Ugh.

Yes, grating potatoes is QED especially for potato pancakes. For hash browns, I prefer a courser finish requiring larger holes but that's just my personal preference.

This is great for mashed potatoes, but I think the disc system of the cutters is difficult to use. I have never used it for egg salad, but think the whites would not cut through well. I have not used the food mill. If you have arthritis and turning, gripping, etc. is difficult. You may be better off going "old school" and using a potato masher (the kind on a stick handle, or an electric mixer) and egg slicer. That is what I use. I purchased this ricer to make lefse, where the potato is made into a bread dough, so must be silky smooth

I used it with potato's too ... And potatoes are usually misshapen anyway. And I was pleased with the results.

Absolutely ! Works great right out of the box - I was so excited to make potato pancakes that I didn't even think to wash the grater parts.Simple stated this is a great machine and well worth the investment.

You probably don't want to try this to crush ice. You can use it for soft, cooked potatoes to make mashed potatoes.

Yes! I absolutely LOVE this potato grater. It's very easy to use and very easy to clean. My husbands father is Lithuanian and I bought this to make Kuglis for my husband. I have used it several times and it works great.

Anything you need to smooth, like frosting, I would think. I gave this as a gift to my daughter so have never used it myself.

There seems to be no problem of sticking. If I load too many/much potato it get messy, But my wife lets me rice potatoes for our family dinners. They are very fluffy without that beat up feel from a mixer.

No but it comes with a larger (big foot) attachment it is larger than the one shown in the pic attached to the blender, it should be able to handle potatoes

I haven't tried potatoes yet, but I did cream cream cheese, pudding mix and eggs together and had zero lumps!!!!!!!! Silky smooth for a cheesecake!!!!I hope this helps!

I rather would try something like "Best Hand Clothes Wringer", try to make a search on Amazon, you will find a machine that works beyond your expectations. The potato press is only good to make mash potatoes. Here is a link: Best Hand Clothes Wringer

I have not used it to mash potatoes yet, but I will be mashing my potatoes with it on Thanksgiving. Depending on how much mash potatoes you will be making, it may or may not be big enough. But, I bet you could do two batches if you needed to very quickly because it's pretty powerful, especially on the higher speeds. This my first mixer and I really like it-and use it a lot. I guess it depends on what you are used to.
