Drive shaft broke with berries
on August 28, 2021
Posted by: Michele in Oregon
from Portland, Oregon
Like others have said. This works great for tomatoes and I have used it a bunch for apples. However blackberries were too much. Like others, I expected more from a kitchen aid product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am in love!

from Little Mountain, SC
I received my grinder and my fruit and vegetable strainer today. Washed it all up, put it together and did a big pan of tomatoes. It worked like a dream. I was a little apprehensive because of the reviews but every other machine that peeled and deseeded tomatoes had bad reviews. Cleanup was easy and it didn’t make a big mess! This worked for me and I love it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A lesson in planned obsolescence
on August 9, 2021
Posted by: Call me JB
from Illinois
I have several kitchen aid mixer accessories. When using my vegetable strainer to strain the seeds from blackberries, the main housing unit broke and the auger got stuck so tightly, I could not disassemble it.
I looked online and hurriedly ordered a replacement strainer attachment because I have bushels of tomatoes to process. Today, I had several big bowls of tomatoes ready to process. I opened the new attachment and to my sad surprise, I learned I could not use it without the main housing unit — sold separately! I also had a meat grinder attachment, so tried using the main housing unit from it, but it would not fit it— a fraction of an inch difference in size. I called my son who has a newer meat grinder attachment than mine, and his was also not the right size. I am pretty disappointed in this whole expensive mess. Now I have a bunch of parts that I cannot use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A True Disappointment
on August 8, 2021
Posted by: Big Waste
from North Carolina
I bought this attachment recently. I got it out of the box this morning to make fresh tomato juice. You know what? The box did not contain all the parts shown and I found out I have to buy the other necessary parts separately.. Nowhere did I see that this was the case before I purchased it. Had that been the case, I would not have purchased this attachment and now I want a refund..

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!
