I bought this accessory a few weeks ago and I'm very pleased that I did. I've owned my mixer since 1998 and wish I had bought this implement years ago. It slices, dices, juliennes etc. Very helpful in saving time on making soups, stews, salsa, chili, etc.  It's really nice that all of the food put through it is consistently cut to the same size. I'd recommend this to anyone. Plenty of power too.
