I love my meat grinder. I wasn't sure if plastic or metal would be best and I chose this white attachment for starters. It grinds our meat perfectly and it's fun to make our own, fresh hamburgers!

Fantastic attachment! Really enjoy the simplicity of it. It's easy to operate and easy to clean too! Tried it out with steak cubes mixed with peppers, onions, and cilantro and made some awesome meatballs out of it!

I bought the plastic version of this attachment when it was on sale and in the first 20 minutes of use, the locknut shattered and hit me close to the eye. I returned it and decided to give the silver version a try since it's all metal and comes with more accessories. I give it a 1 star for the plastic and a 5 star for the metal.

I got this about 2 month ago from Best buy. it worked great until the work broke after the second use. Go to the kitchainaid website where you can see many reviews similar to mine, regarding that part issue. I hope Kitchenaid will send me a replacement.

Bought this grinder for our KitchenAid Mixer. After a single use, an important metal part broke off. We contacted KitchenAid and they sent out another one. After trying it out today, it broke again. These things are only made to work one time.

Bought this a few months ago and used it today to grind up some extra chuck roast trimmings. Very nice, I would get the higher quality one, but if this one is on sale and cheaper than that one, go for it. Only issue is if you have bigger or tougher pieces, it’s hard to go through the plastic spirals. I wonder if the high quality one would do better. Very easy to attach and clear instructions.

I purchased the Kitchen Aid Food Grinder Attachment as a mothers gift for my mother. She used for the first time and she loved it, she was able to grind chicken and made ground chicken meatballs. The grinder worked perfect for what she needed. Basic use, quality is good and functionality is great. First use, so far so good... Recommended for basic use...

This is a great attachment! Already using it for ground pork, rather than buying it in the market. I'm planning to make ground beef at home with just the right amount of fat.

Great purchase! It’s easy to use. I’m happy that I can choose the kind of meat that I can grind than buying it ready in the store. Perfect accessory for our kitchen aid and very useful in The kitchen. A must tool.

It is plastic, so if you want something sturdier spend the extra $30 and go for the steel one. Other than that, it's a great addition to my great mixer. I use this with my 5 qt. artisan mixer and it works great.

This gadget really works! Bought it to grind cooked pork which is harder to grind, and it did the job! It doesn't get stuck, works with ease. The feeder is small so you have to cut the meat in small pieces but it does the job great!

Had to return this grinder after one use!!! The price for this unit is spot on to start out with especially if your not sure you are going to use it all the time, like once a year during hunting season. Its easy to clean and its light weight due to being made of platic. All parts are dishwasher safe besides blade and grinding plates! I took all the pieces out of the box and everything was washed by hand diligently. This is to clean the parts before first use and clean off the oils used on parts for shipment and storage, hopefully food safe grade H1. I assembled all parts while carefully reading the instructions. First the worm gear, then the blade, the coarse grinding plate for burger and then finally the plastic collar. Now remember only snug up the plastic collar to the plate and don't overtighten! Then next i attached the food grinder to the power hub, I was really excited at this point! I cut up the beef chuck roast into 1 inch straps, turned on the amazing kitchenaid mixer to speed four and dropped in that meat! I was grinding away and grinding away fast, it was so easy and efficient! I mixed in the spices and sent the burger through a second time. The burgers were in the pan in a matter of minutes! After eating the burgers I realized I can't buy store pre-prepped burger ever again. Now here is where the problem occurred and I was upset and worried, sorry for the long story up to this point but it was crucial. After disassembling the parts I saw something and it made me worried for both my family and others. The blade and the grinder plate were rubbing together during grinding. The result is metal scraping and gouging in the metal which was transferred to the meat. How can a company build a product such as this and it pass their testing standards!! Then proceed to get sent out to the public in total disregard for peoples health and well being!! There are fixes on the internet such as sour cream lid washers, food safe washers and sanding down the blade/grinding plates. Why be forced to make these repairs in order to use your grinder safely in fear of your families health?! I would not and will not do such a thing! This product needs to work out of the box!!! I am only giving it two stars instead of one because it is light weight, easy to clean and it ground the meat easily. I absolutely refused to use this unit more than once due to its manufactured defect and safety concern. Buyer beware!!

For home use this attachment works great for grinding your own mix of cuts for hamburgers.

The grinder is very useful for meat, chicken, turkey. You can make healthy hamburgers and delicious meat pies, cacerols and many others delicious recipes. Light weight, easy to wash and clean. Good price

Love the meat grinder. Only down side is that it splatters everywhere. We had to figure a way to stop the splatter. However, it does a great job. And it’s easy to attach and use.

Very nice and sturdy easy to use very nice overall

This food grinder functions impressively well. My first choice wasn't this plastic one (I wanted the metal grinder) however, I am extremely pleased with its functionality so far. Performs better than expected. Now to see about longevity...
