I've been wanting a grinder for my kitchenaid mixer. It officially happened. I was afraid I would be a little intimidated by it but nope. Absolutely nothing to be intimidated by. It is so simple and easy to use! My husband is obsessed with this thing too! He makes his own homemade burgers and loves using already grounded up sirloin steak for his burgers but since we have this adapter now, he tried grinding his own sirloin steak and was absolutely amazed. He won't buy ground sirloin from the store again. It is so easy to use. I can't wait to use it more. It makes the perfect consistency. Only complaint is cleaning it is a little bit of a work but it's totally worth it!
