Can't beat home made mash.
Cook the unpeeled potatoes in a microwave until soft then chop up and mash with some butter.
I cut them up with kitchen scissors first so the skins don't block up the masher.
The skins can be removed before mashing if you don't like them.

I always cook my spuds in the microwave. Delicious and quick, if you know how to get the timing right.
When 'dehydrated potatoes'..to give them their technically correct name , first came on the market, I was working at the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (as was) in London, compiling various statistics...mainly for import and export of certain agricultural commodities. Those figures included production figures for the above product ('Smash' etc).
As there were so few companies involved in those early days, it was not permitted for us to reveal the 'commercially sensitive' mashed spuds figures to any 'Tom Dick or Harry' .

Microwave potatoes have a different texture to boiled/fried, due to the way the starch is broken down. I prefer good old boiled or fried.

I haven't got a cooker now...only a microwave and a 'health grill'. They taste fine to me.

I'd always been under the impression that microwaving/steaming potato causes the lowest amount of nutrients to be lost, so was the healthy option.
Doesn't boiling a potato causes all water-soluble nutrients to leach out into the water. My grandmother used some of the water to add to the gravy.
I also like to include the skins in my mash. Apparently the skin contains more nutrients and most of the fiber content.
We have some great fresh native potatoes here in Davao City which I eat faily often.
