So, let me share a few things that any person attempting to use this attachment needs to know: 1) Do not roll the dough any thinner than a 3 on your kitchenAid Pasta Roller - This attachment stretches the dough as it pulls it through and if you go any thinner, your dough will certainly tear. If it has a hard time making it through your KitchenAid Pasta Roller, it will be impossible to make it through this attachment. If it is too dry, it will crack and break using this attachment, You need to make certain that the dough easily goes through the Pasta Roller Attachment. I tried many of them and what I found worked best for me was prepare the dough with the pasta roller, remove the pasta roller and mount this attachment, use the freshly prepared dough (put a little flour on both sides before use) to make a batch of ravioli. 5) Don't assume that your dough will feed through this attachment, even though it has rollers on both sides, save yourself a lot of frustration and manually push the dough in on both sides before you turn the handle."
"I was using a hand crank pasta machine and filling sealing and cutting the ravioli by hand. The hand crank is a little hard to turn especially when it's sealing the ravioli, so I wish the handle was longer."
"My only issue was I didn't know how to wash it because it doesn't come with instructions and I don't think wiping with a damp towel is good enough."
"The rollers stopped rolling, so I called Kitchen Aid who explained that they do not service these attachments and the warranty had expired (a warranty of merely one year for a piece of equipment made from several pounds of steel is frankly a bit suspicious). While I know this to be an issue with cheap appliances and electronics of all varieties, I did not expect it to be an issue with Kitchen Aid, nor did I expect it in a one hundred dollar accessory made from several pounds of steel, brass, and aluminum. And, in fact, inside the unit there seems to really be only ONE PIECE MADE OF PLASTIC--pretty much the one piece that you don't want made from plastic. Most Kitchen Aid products are built in a factory in Ohio, but this product is built in Italy. While some may consider that aspect of the product's manufacture to be an encouraging even marketable factor, it would actually seem to be the crux of the issue, for it must be why this product (made almost completely of stainless steel, aluminum, and brass) cannot be serviced and why they don't sell replacement parts. The issue that I have is that if Kitchen Aid is not going to service the products or offer replacement parts, then selling a product with such a weak connection (which I argue is an INTENTIONAL POINT OF FAILURE) is downright unethical."
Transform your KitchenAid Stand Mixer into a versatile food grinder that uses the power of the motor to help you tackle a variety of tasks. Toss cubes of meat into the food tray, stomp 'em down, and watch the results wriggle out the front. Most parts are dishwasher-safe; hand wash the grinding blades, food stomper, and cutting knife. Grinder attachment greatly expands a stand mixer's flexiblity. Ideal for grinding meats, grating cheese, making bread crumbs and combining dips, salsas, spreads.

Find Best Price at Amazon"I've been going to the expensive specialty market and paying top dollar for chuck, then getting the guys at the counter to grind it for me. Despite a store policy of providing custom butcher service, the young kids that work behind the counter resent having to do anything beyond slapping meat on a scale and wrapping it in a piece of paper. I hesitated to buy the KitchenAid attachment because of reviews that complained of metal in the ground meat, repeated clogging, etc. I was about to spend a few hundred dollars on a big countertop professional device, when I decided to start with the inexpensive KitchenAid and then make the bigger investment if I was dissatisfied. Right after this delivery arrived, the chain grocery store near my house had a good meat sale and I was able to get boneless chuck roast for a fraction of the usual price. I bought the three largest ones in the case (approximately 13 pounds total) and brought them home, anxious to start making hamburger patties. I felt that I should probably trim off the harder gristly bits of fat and the silver skin before I ground the meat, but decided to just throw everything in (as I'm sure they do at the store). At that point, I stopped and finished cutting the rest of that first roast into cubes - a little larger than 1" x 1", but not too big to feed through the tube. I tossed the cut cubes into a stainless restaurant bowl and put them in the kitchen freezer, which was directly behind where I was working. The cooler meat begin feeding again very easily, and the rest of the grinding worked very well (except as noted in the next step). I eventually realized that it was silver skin that had fed through, then got trapped behind the blade and had been formed into a perfect ring by the rotating worm. When I got to the second and third roasts, I removed any large pieces of silver skin, but didn't spend a great deal of time getting every bit of it."
"My husband wanted to start grinding his own meats - so we shot a video reivew of our first use ever with this attachment. We wanted to share the video to show how easy this is to use - we're not pro's by any means and this was our first attempt."
"Bobby Flay suggests a 3/4 chuck to 1/4 sirloin ratio, and says to not clump your patties together too tightly - to leave some space so the juices can run through the meat."
"If I were grinding up a lot of meat at a time I'd definitely consider buying a totally separate grinder, but for now this is perfect for my needs!"
"Works EXACTLY as described and a little better."
"I bought this for a indoor deer meat grinder."
"It easily ground a large semi-frozen chuck roast, and did not bog down."
"Within several minutes, the gray metal sludge started oozing out of the middle of the metal plate (where the everything rotates from). The back part was rotating metal to metal and metal sludge was also coming out from there."

"My third drawer also operates rather smooth right out of the box with the friction being between that of drawer#1 and corrected drawer#2. The drawer stops opening once all but the rear 1" remains inside the chassis; this leverage keeps the drawer suspended open without any fear of it falling out onto the floor. Packaging. Don't be alarmed when first receiving the box and seeing 'Glass Drawer' on the top label; the center label should correctly state mesh drawer (reference customer images)."
"Purchased two of these storage unit for our Keurig cups."
"And as someone else mentioned, if you turn every other K-cup upside down, you can get 7 more in than advertised."
"It's maybe not the prettiest holder out there but my parents have one of these and they really like it."
"Our Keurig is positioned under the kitchen cabinets though, on the counter, and we have to pull it out a bit to lift the lid."
"Great addition to your Keurig."
"It fits our Keurig perfectly, one thing is that the space between the counter and upper cabinets is small so we actually have to pull it out and push it back against the wall when not in use."

The ice-cream when start to freeze tend to stop moving or just touch one area inside the bowl and by spreading it you make it set faster. the colder your mix the faster and easy to set and freeze inside the bowl. 9- Price of ingredients to make a nice ice-cream? will I say fair to ok. As I mentioned, I use heavy-cream for hard serve ice-cream and I buy 1 quart around $6 (and I use it 2 times or two bowls, 2 cups each). you also add the price of regular milk and other flavors and ingredients as preferred. I will move to frozen yogurt and I will add more tips to my review."
"The recipe in the owners manual for vanilla ice cream is HEAVEN. there are a few things about this ice cream maker which I think could be improved, and maybe on newer models they are, but these are what reduces this review by one star. I feel like in this day and age, there is no reason to not make kitchen tools dishwasher safe. Now you have to freeze the bowl for about 24 hours in advance, but that's just the type of ice cream maker this is. It's a solid ice cream maker and the few drawbacks are not a big enough deal that it would sway me from buying this all over again if I had to do it over."
"Please look at the warranty info before you purchase this unit. We just received this one, and we tried to use it once, and the chemical smell coming out of the motor was terrible as soon as we started it. If you have a issue with the unit during the warranty period, YOU have to pay $10 to ship it to them, and then another $10 for them to ship you the replacement."

"Had a cake recipe which required beating the egg whites to soft peaks. Then, the true test: after all the sugar was in, "beat for at least five minutes, or until egg whites are very firm.""
"I have had all sorts of egg beaters over the years and this one wins hands down!"
"I wanted to beat my eggs better than just using a wire whip for some recipes but didn't want to pull out my hand beater so I tried this little tool. You just wipe the handle part clean and the beater part goes in the top rack."

"I love having seltzer water whenever I want, no more buying it from grocery stores."
"If you want to use this product to really take the place of having to buy cans / sleeves of seltzer water, I would recommend purchasing 4 of the SodaStream bottles. You cannot use just any bottle to carbonate because the mouth of the bottle is designed specifically for the SodaStream. Prior to SodaStream, when I was drinking from seltzer water cans, I would often leave "squirrels" (half empty cans) around the house. But with the SodaStream bottles, I cap them when I'm done drinking and they keep their fizz. The initial SodaStream canister is expensive (about $25-$30), but once you have the canister, you own it and just need to refill which only costs about $12 or $13 for 60 liters of carbonated water."
"I learned one valuable lesson, when you add flavoring, or juice, make sure you do it over a sink!"
"My youngest son received this as a gift and he is an Analytical Chemist and just loves this thing."
"Great to make beverage when I want it without filling refrigerator with bottles that need to be recycled when empty."
"Exactly what I wanted since it is a replacement for one that wore out."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The 1 page brochure includes example cooking times for different types and portions of pasta and also warns that you will likely need to make adjustments for your own microwave. Measure pasta (place in bottom), add water to the line for your number of portions, pop it into the microwave for the appropriate time, put on the lid, drain and serve. Cleanup was very easy and I recommend that if you don't wash it right away, fill it with water and a couple drops of dish detergent. From the water lines, pasta portion holes, strainer or simple directions it's designed with the microwave cook in mind. The Fasta Pasta is quick, precise (one or two serving size measuring holes in the top) and easy: just how I like things. Since I've adjusted timings for my microwave my results are consistently excellent and that's the bottom line for me. One thing I found out with the Fasta Pasta is there is very little water to pour off when done compared to using a pot on the stove."
"I bought this microwave pasta cooker at a time when I did not have a stove."
"I love this and it makes perfect pasta."
"Great but the fill lines for the water are a little hard to see and the lid doesn't stay in place while draining."

"Very easy to use, cooks the pasta well and I'm able to easily drain the water."

"I get up in the morning and making my breakfast protein shake is so quick and easy. I would never dream of using my blender to make my morning shake."
"Another thing I noticed is the vibration actually starts to loosen the cap when it's on the machine."
"ALSO also, if you're using regular size onions and tomatoes, this product actually sux, because it's not really built to handle the larger fruits and veggies, as the 'single serving' size canisters are narrow and the products can get stuck(hence the shaking technique). What this product does best, is, making single serving smoothies."
"The plastic parts under the blade (where it meets the motor) came apart and started smoking."
"I also realize this is a smaller blender so I make sure to chop things up a little smaller than I so for my full size blender at home."
"The solid leaks with liquids, and the perforated lid has 2 sides, which would presumably let you dispense 2 different amounts of seasoning, but what ends up actually happening is dispense throught the large and small holes simultaneously."

Find Best Price at Amazon"My AMEX card gave me a 10% discount deal recently and I finally decided to live a little and buy it this month. It is OEM, 9 inches, and fits my 6-qt DUO 60 7-in-1 Instant Pot like a dream. I am notorious for overstuffing my crockpots and I can't tell you how excited I was to see that the lid is also CONVEX, which I don't think any other reviewers mentioned. The convex curve allows for some extra space and breathing room for your food, which is amazing!! It is so much better to use when the Instant Pot is in slowcooker mode than the heavy OG lid and there's no need to stink up a gasket with Pulled Pork or Garlic Beef Stroganoff. Another great aspect is that you can just pop it on any time you have leftovers in the IP and chuck the whole bowl in the fridge."
"When you want to cook more conventionally though, as if you were cooking on a stovetop but with very precise and consistent heat control- sauteing and browning ingredients or sweating vegetables prior to adding liquids or meat and proceeding with the pressure cooking part of a recipe, or if you want to slow cook something without the intense heat and pressure blast of the pressure cooking functionality, this lid opens up a lot of that functionality. I've spent my life cooking on gas as a professional Chef, I really appreciate the consistent heat that I can get using this device when I cook at home and again, this lid opens up a whole new world of functionality beyond merely cooking under pressure."
"UPDATE ***. For Reviewers who advise the glass lid does not work in "Slow Cook" mode, I say: please consider the model you own, and READ your User Manual."
"My Instant Pot electric pressure cooker now really feels like a slow cooker!!"
"I don't understand the reviews that claimed this glass top didn't work on their instant pot."
Best Bread Machine Parts & Accessories
From the company that pioneered the concept of automating fresh baked bread at home in the 1980s, the new West Bend 41410 bread maker is perfect for novice or accomplished bread smiths. Accessories: dual Knead blade, nonstick pan, measuring cup and Spoon, Knead blade removal tool.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"My first impression of the West Bend 41413 Hi-Rise Loaf Programmable Breadmaker, 2-Pound was that at seventy dollars, the weight of it was very light. I don't know where that claim is coming from, but I doubt that this would survive a trip through the dishwasher and would tell you to ONLY HAND WASH the paddle and pan. Before you bake bread in this machine, be sure to run it for an hour with a cup of water in the pan and the lid open. If you intend to bake a loaf immediately after the initial burn off, unplug the machine as soon as your preliminary cleaning out hour is up to allow it all to cool down. Otherwise, you will receive an HHH code designating that the machine has overheated and it won't work until after the cord has been unplugged for a while. As for the gluten free recipes, I have to stress the importance of maintaining a no flour environment or you risk contamination and if you are a sufferer of celiac disease, you may not be happy the next day."
"I have been using bread makers for many years and rarely buy bread at a store. My first bread maker is a WestBend which still works well, but I have respectfully put into retirement."
"It should be noted here that prior to the final rise cycle I make sure the bread is centered in the pan, otherwise it can come out a little irregular. Due to the oblong shape of the pan, I also check during the initial mixing cycle to be sure all the flour, etc. Missing part issue resolved in record time and in a very customer friendly manner."
"Unfortunately, after making several loaves of bread, we had problem with the paddles coming free during the kneed cycle and scrapping the pan and causing both metal shards and the non-stick coating into the bread making it inedible. We were careful to not soak our bread pan as well as reduce the amount of water in our recipes and unfortunately again, the paddles lifted during the kneed cycle and scrapped metal and non-stick coating into the dough of our bread, making it inedible."
"I just wish the machine was a great as the customer service."
