I own almost every attachment and 3 Stand mixers, and this is by far my favorite! Let me tell you why...  I get large amount of bulk veggies and they need to be processed for later use. this would be a nightmare if I had to do this all by hand. What I do is place a ziplock bag in a bowl and let the veggies fall right into the bag. zip it up and freeze it done. I do onions, Bell pepper, celery, cheese, anything that I will need for later soups and stock starters. I take my pasta roller and roll out pizza dough for home made hot pockets. I use my mixers for everything. but this is my favorite attachment  (pasta roller a close second)
