Would you pay $20 for the stupid meatball contraption?

Even if you didn't have to add in S&H? What a stupid commercial. Not only does it cut away and not explain the disappearance of the meat all around the edges of the contraption, you have to pay as much for shipping of the "free" pasta pot as you could buy it locally.

I've seen kitchen gadgets on TV that actually were tempting, but who the hell would buy this? (they are obviously selling as the commercials continue)...

It can't be because you don't have to touch the meat, you have to shape and flatten it out enough to fit under the thing. It would take me less than a minute to make a dozen meatballs out of the meat they show, I can't see it being worth the money to save 30 seconds (if it works) then lose more than the time saved washing the POS.

Anybody order this (or considering)? Why?

Ever order anything more stupid off of TV?
