Customer Review: Does What You'd Expect
Summary: 4 Stars
We've used this a couple of times and it has performed well. It's not perfect, in the following ways: 1) It does not handle fat very well; after awhile the fat gets stuck in the holes of the plate and you need to take a couple of minutes to clear it out. 2) It spits raw meat juices sometimes rather far! 3) You need to feed it manually and use the pusher to keep it going. While this is no surprise, to get a fifth star, Kitchenaid would need to come up with a better way of the thing feeding the meet more automatically. 4) The first couple of batches have produced several small globs of machine grease in the ground meat! While I am sure this will go away once the machine is broken in, it does make me wonder whether the grease is necessary for proper operation. If not, why does it ship from the factory without being internally cleaner? This leads me to #5) The manual says nothing about the grease (i.e. whether it is normal or whether it needs to be re-greased ever, etc.). By the way, the picture shows a wooden stomper, but ours shipped with a white plastic version, which is fine (though likely to break eventually).
Still, this grinder does what we expected, and as long as it lasts a long time, we'll be very satisfied. Overall, we are happy with it (so far).

Need bread crumbs? Or perhaps you like making your own lamb, chicken or pork burgers, or sausages? Then again maybe you make baby food at home to avoid artificial ingredients? For all of these tasks you can enlist the help of your powerful KitchenAid stand mixer thanks to this fabulous attachment.This tool increases the fun factor of your KitchenAid stand mixer several times over. Toss cubes of meat into the food tray, stomp 'em down, and watch the results wriggle out the front. Grind your own beef or chicken for patties or tacos. Blend your own sausage mixtures, from breakfast to boudin blanc. With additional attachments, you can turn it into a pasta maker or a sausage stuffer. It's easy to assemble and use. Most parts are dishwasher-safe; hand wash the grinding blades, wooden stomper, and cutting knife. --Betsy Danheim
