Not what was advertised
These attachments are great. However, the package i recieved did not come with the wooden plunger that is pictured. You need to have this to use the food grinder, and the food strainer. Nothing else (like wooden spoons, etc.) work for this purpose. Make sure you ask about that wooden plunger if you decide to purchase.
Other than that, the product would have been great and a great deal.

I know she loved it.
I purchased this for my Fiance because she was interested in making applesauce, applebutter, and she wanted to do some jellies and jams. Suffice it to say that it cut back the amount of work she had to do by almost 2/3rds. We didn't have to peel any of the apples or pears, it took the majority of the pulp from raspberries out and gave us pure juice.
If you have someone, or if you are someone that wants to get into canning or food processing, I would recommend this device as an attachment to your KitchenAide mixer. Well worth the investment.

Easy To Use? Maybe??
I ordered the attachment package to go with my new KitchenAid Mixer. I had to have my husbands help getting the attachments to go on. I have a little arthritis in my hands and can't get a good grip on things. I thought it a little dangerous looking and I used a towel to remove the slicer. It locks in hard but I did get it apart. It worked wonderfully tho. I've only used the thin slicer so far, for making bread & butter pickles. Perfect slices!! With a little practice I'm sure I will get the hang of putting it together without my husbands strong hands. But I do suggest some caution when handling the attachment slicers tho!!
Happy Cooking!!
