  1. Several food sites/blogs/ etc. have tested/reviewed many of these products w VERY disappointing results. The meat grinder is about the best attachment as is the paddle w the rubber side. The ice cream maker & water bath also get good ratings. The rest, not so much. I have an 18 yr. old Kitchen Aid Pro 6 and not all of these items will work w it.
