(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) We have only used it once to shred cheese and it works great. The only thing I noticed is the cheese sticks to the outside of the shredder wheel and it is hard to get the shredder wheel to release to clean it. I'm sure with shredding vegetables and wetter foods we won,t have that problem.  We have our mixer on the counter top all the time so putting the attachment on is easy and takes up much !ess space than the food processor we used previously. Glad we got it
