A must have attachment for everyone who owns a kitchenaid lift stand mixer with stainless steel bowls. This saves me from having to cut cold butter into flour by hand when I'm making any pastries that have a flaky dough. It helps keep me from over mixing and ending up with dough that has to be tossed. It comes with a scraper so cleanup is a breeze and it's dishwasher safe. You can use this for many other things, I make my own baby foods at home and this is good for mashing upon shredding  meats, fruits and veggies too. With the holiday season coming up and all the baking I do this will get plenty of use and I'm so glad I have this to make it easier on me!
