The mashing of a potato, simple process that it is, probably dates from antiquity, leaving us no record of the original masher of the potato. Modern instant mashed potatoes, though, does have an inventor, Canadian scientist Edward Asselbergs. In 1962 he was issued a patent for an industrial method of "Preparation of dehydrated cooked mashed potato." (Older processes were also developed and patented in 1954 and 1912, and ancient civilizations were known to dry and grind various vegetables for preservation.)
If you pick your masher well, the price and brand shouldn't matter, it's all about the shape. Michelle Sohn, director of culinary design for Oxo, told the New York Times that the traditional wavy, wire masher was actually useless, as large spaces between the wires create a lumpier MASH. The best mashers therefore, have a flat end or grid pattern. If you're looking for trusted reviews, The Guardian tested loads, and found the 3 best. They were, the Cuisipro fibreglass masher, the Black+Blurn Spudski potato masher, and the Joseph Joseph smasher.
A potato masher - is a metal (or hard plastic) disc with holes in, attached to a handle. When you press it into cooked potatoes (or other soft foods), it forces some of the potato 'flesh' though the holes. Repeated use pulverises the potato into tiny pieces. See the related link for a typical example.
Robert B. Skerker invented the potato masher in the 1800's and William Prindle invented an improved potato masher in the 1990's.
