Good item - if you will use them!
2008-11-08I have used this product, and I have enjoyed using it. The only complaint is with the slicer/grater, some of the food gets stuck between the blades and the attachment, and the food does not get grated/sliced. If this is your main use of the machine - a food processor would work better. The grinder and strainer work great. Apples and pears worked great... all I had to do is cut the fruit into pieces that would fit through the grinder, cooked them down some to become soft, and put them through... the pulp came out free of peel, stem and seeds... how great! I have also used the grinder to grind up venison meat... I did put it through twice, but it worked great.

This made Applesauce like a pro! I love it!
2008-10-29I used the attachment for making sauce and made loads of applesauce. It worked really well and I'd recomend it to anyone. The price I found here at Amazon was the BEST by far!

Basically doesn't work
2008-10-24I got this for making applesauce, and it doesn't: the main problem seems to be that the auger doesn't go all the way back, so part of the material gets behind it. That probably doesn't matter so much if it's soft material, but something firm like an apple basically plugs up the feed tube so you can't get more in.

so-so
2008-10-23I need to replace my food processor and decided that the attachments to my Kitchen Aid mixer would do the trick; however, it only half does the trick. The slicer and grinder seem to work fine on the things that I have tried but the shredder has been somewhat of a disaster. Not what I was expecting. Cabbage and zucchini seems to get caught between the cone and the main housing thus coming out in chunks.

LOVE IT!
2008-10-20I recently purchased this set and I LOVE IT! I made my first 3 batches of homemade applesauce from fresh-from-the-orchard apples and canned around 25 quarts! The fruit/veggie strainer made it SOOOOOO easy! I just boiled the apples until they were soft, put them through the strainer/grinder attachment and basically what comes out it applesauce! You can add cinnamon and/or sugar if you want, but no other work needed! It was awesome, you don't even need to peel or core the apples, just slice them, cook them and that's IT! I have 3 children under the age of 5 and there is no way I could use a hand crank food mill to make it, but with these attachments, it's really, really easy! I will probably be using it again to make baby food!
