We are happy with our meat grinder attachment even though the collar broke the second time we used it. Cuisinart was very helpful and sent us a replacement collar in a reasonable amount of time.
Right out of the box I sanitized it and put it to the grind. Used the large hole disc for a ham salad. When I saw it was plastic I had my doubts but is very capable of doing its job. Great kitchen tool. Highly recommended.
Didn't work well. I was grinding already ground meat to make it finer but it was very time consuming and hard to put it in the small grinding opening. Also machine works very slow even with the small amount ofground meat. It took me almost 1and half hour to grind 2 lbs of already groung meat.
I bought the grinder before a new Stand Mixer. When I got the mixer in I put the whole unit together and made my sandwich spread then. I loved the way it turned out and will be making more this next week. When I first bought it I thought it was the manual grinder when it came in I found out I needed the Stand Mixer for it. I love not having to turn a handle to make my spreads. Later I want to learn to make sausage. This is so much easier to use than the old fashion type.
