I bought my model several years ago and have mostly used it for tomato sauce. It does not work for chokecherries as the seeds are too big. I love this strainer. It works great. Clean up is very easy.
Just got it on 09/08/2022 and the attachment is already broke very upset have a lot of tomatoes to do It is coming apart along the seme of the strainer
I've had this attachment for years. I use it to process tomatoes into juice for canning. So much easier than the hand crank sieves. I just wish the top was deeper where the tomatoes go.
I bought the vegetable strainer last month (Aug 2022) to process fresh tomatoes into sauce. The strainer cone split on the second day of use. I truly love the product and the sauce produced was perfect. Sadly it broke and I cannot find a replacement strainer cone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this about a month ago and wished I had done so years ago. Processing tomatoes is a breeze! The complaints I see all have to do with using it to process blackberries witch will definately clog the strainer tube and with enough pressure somethings gotta give. Maybe OK if you clean it out every few minutes, but from what I read, you are using the attachment for something it was not intended to be used for.
I got this and the grinder attachment for Christmas 2019 and finally got around to using it. I've don't 9 gallons of spaghetti sauce so far and it makes it such a breeze! Growing up mom always used the squeeze-o and I always helped her. After she passed I refused to make sauce if I had to use that contraption. The strainer attachment is soooo much easier and takes so much less time. I wish I had discovered it sooner!
I bought this but only came with 3 parts and no-one available at kitchen aide to call for spare parts. not the the part that attaches to the mixer. I have a ton of Roma tomatoes and no way to strain. In called and was getting a callback the following day but when I answered they hung up. good luck to all
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
