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.

FGA-2 not compatable
on February 28, 2022
Posted by: wanted this to work
from Bozeman MT
Contrary to the Kitchenaid Review Team's answer to the question "is it compatable with the grinder FGA-2" it isn't. I ordered the strainer based on that yes answer and had to return the strainer because it does not fit the FGA-2 grinder.

I am in love!

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!

Consumer Manipulation

Should be compatible with KSMMGA but instead you have to buy TWO DIFFERENT food grinders. I thought KitchenAid was better than this sort of consumer manipulation, but you’re better off getting a stand alone juicer from a different brand

Great except doesn't fit my grinder
on August 27, 2020

from North Dakota
I bought this grinder eager to make some tomato sauce; however, I have an older food grinder (model FGA) and the tabs and strainer code did NOT fit where it was supposed to on the food grinder. I am very, very disappointed. My husband now will try to find a way to make it fit. Don't be fooled--if you have an old grinder, this might not fit.

Doesn’t Come with All Parts

The attachment doesn’t come with all the parts needed to use it. You have to buy them separately. Unfortunately I can’t use the item yet because I have to buy more pieces. They should be more upfront about this instead of suckering you in for money, it’s already expensive enough.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

need to buy more!!
on September 6, 2020

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.

Poor quality; breaks easily
on September 3, 2023
Posted by: Albert47
from Fort Myers Florida
I have processed less than 20 pounds of tomatoes and 12 pounds of apples and the strainer has broken - it separated along the seam. I also had the same issue as many in that i did not realize that you had to buy so many separate parts to get this system to work
