I have never had an attachment for my mixer so I was excited to try this out. Unfortunately, it did not work well for me.  On the plus side it is easy to use and clean. On the negative side, it mangled almost everything I tried to shred or slice. Pepperoni - nope, 1 small carrot - yes, mushrooms - nope, mozzarella - yikes, what a mess.  Also, the feeder tubes were quite small so everything has to be cut into rather small pieces.
