Product Description
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 DanheimProduct Details

Works well By S. Janes
I like to make my own sausage, so this, plus the sausage stuffing attachment, was a great addition to the kitchen.
Some things to make the grinding go easier:
1) Chill the meat cubes in the freezer for 30 minutes or so. If the meat is completely defrosted, it can gum-up the inside a bit (easily resolved). Having the meat cubes a little "stiffer" lets it grind easier.
2) Don't power your mixer up to "10". This is a slower process. I use the max speed or "stir" or maybe as high as a 1 or 2. This keeps the grind even and you won't overheat your mixer.
Cleaning can be a bit of a pain. I unfold a paper clip and use the wire to dig out some of the meat, rinse and then let the dishwasher do the rest.

Couldn't do without this for wild game! By gogetemjr
I did not buy this at Amazon but feel a review is worthy. I bought this for my husband 4 years ago for Christmas to process his wild game, deer. We have only used this for deer but I must say we are able to get so much more meat out of our game with this grinder. We always process it ourselves and before we only got steaks and roasts. With this grinder we are able to make burger and keep more of the meat than it going to waste. We LOVE LOVE LOVE this grinder. I noticed yesterday while my husband was grinding that it seemed to bog down a bit but I noticed on another review to chill the meat in freezer first. I think we'll try that next time and keep it on a low setting. We would be lost without this very valuable piece of equipment!

Good grinder By Robert J. Scire
We have only used the grinder attachment to grind a pork butt and stuff some italian sausage. the grinding went really easy and had no problems with the blades cloging. My only dissapointment was with the cheap plastic pusher that was included and not the wood one that was in the picture on the website
