Catastrophic Failure
on July 9, 2021
Posted by: Don in Virginia
from Richmond, VA
I’ve had this attachment for years and it generally does a good job for what I’ve used it for in the past…juicing soft fruits and vegetables. Today, for the first time, I was running a batch of blackberries for seedless jam. It seemed to be working well until it didn’t…juice was flowing and the seeds/skins were being ejected as usual and then there was a loud pop. I immediately stopped the machine and disassembled the parts. Much to my dismay and horror, I saw that the sieve weld had failed! I will readily admit that the blackberries were the “seediest” fruit I had ever attempted to strain and apparently that is what ruptured the seam. Bottom line…for a company known for making heavy duty, last-a-lifetime appliances, this attachment failed the first time it was asked to perform a job more difficult than juicing a few oranges or summer tomatoes. I’m a life-long KitchenAid user and fan, but in this case, I am more than disappointed!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Black Raspberry seeds broke the drive shaft !!!
on June 1, 2021
Posted by: matter
from Lakewood, WA
I have used this attachment before to seed black raspberries with no issues but today it broke the drive shaft. This is a robust piece of metal! Lucky it didn't break the Kitchen Aid Mixer! I just used it as normal, putting soft berries in the hopper. It jammed 3 times and made a concrete like blockage of seeds. Almost impossible to clean and clear out. The 4th time it broke the drive shaft. I seed the black raspberries to make jam. It made jam all right -- JAMMED the machine! It should be able to seed black raspberries. No idea why it broke this time. And you can't buy just this part. The attachment doesn't work without the drive shaft. I have to buy the entire thing if I want another one. Not happy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Lies about comparability

I bought this and already had the grinder. It literally doesn’t fit and doesn’t work. So don’t waste your time or money and honestly kitchenaid sucks.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Tips for FG model grinder owners
on April 10, 2021
Posted by: Linnea F
from Washington
I have the old school metal food grinder attachment and this didn’t work well with the strainer because of the nubs on the retaining screw-see picture. Hubby ground off the 3 small nubs and its perfect... hoping it helps others!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Makes Quick Work of Tomatoes!
on September 18, 2020
Posted by: AmberMom
I treat myself to one food preservation tool each year and since I already had the food grinder attachment, I bought the Fruit and Vegetable Strainer that attaches to the grinder. Wow! I saved sooo many hours by straining raw tomatoes using this tool rather than cutting, cooking, cooling, and straining with a Foley handmill. Worth every penny!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent sauce
on September 8, 2020
Posted by: HappyInIndiana
from Fishers, IN
Very happy with the fruit and vegetable strainer (even though I had to re-buy the grinder attachment because my grinder was the older model that didn't work with this strainer even though they were purchased on the very same day). Certainly made quick work of a boatload of tomatoes needed to be processed. I disassembled and cleaned mine out twice during the process just to ensure no problems and I had none. I, for one, am very thankful for this attachment!
I would recommend this to a friend!

need to buy more!!
on September 6, 2020
Posted by: farmgirlmn
from Minneapolis, MN
I bought and looking at the photos you would think you get the whole strainer - BUT NO!! you don't! You need to buy additional items that KitchenAid doesn't tell you, so when you try to assemble the strainer to make marinara sauce from all the tomatoes from your garden it won't work!
What a rip-off - sell the ENTIRE strainer in one shot.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
