If you just want a little cider, this is the smart choice!
I am new to hard cider but not fermenting tasty juices. It's apple season here in NY so I thought I'd try my hand at making cider but you need a press and an apple scratter (crusher). Those can be pricey and I didn't want to invest $100's into something I may not pursue. A juicer came to mind but even juicers are big, hard to store and very expensive.This was the perfect solution! It handled both peeled/cored apples as easy as it did unpeeled roughly chopped ones with the skins still on. It is sturdy, well made, and pretty easy to clean. It went through 20 lbs of apples with ease and I look forward to my second batch later.My favorite thing about this is that it works with something I already HAVE and I don't have to buy a standalone unit.It IS a little messy. If you juice every morning this might not be it for you. But the occasional "event" and this juicer was the perfect choice for me!

Works well, great price!
This works quite well considering that the stand alone machines cost hundreds of dollars. I juiced carrots, apples, parsley, and even a banana in a few short minutes. Judging from some of the videos I thought it could be slower, but it went fast enough. Although it eventually clogged, and needed to be cleaned, I think it’s great for the price. I don’t know that the more expensive extractors work any better, and I don’t care.

Quality product for fresh squeezed juices.
Substantial, well made attachment for my KitchenAid stand mixer. Easy to assemble. Made fast work of two bags of oranges. If you’ve got the time to do this task, you will have sublime fresh squeezed orange juice.

Passed the ultimate seed strainer test!
Who doesn't love homemade Raspberry jam! But the burden of removing all of those seeds makes the process daunting. I can think of more important things to do with my time. But every year my hedge produces abundantly and my family begs for jam. The wire mesh basket was the only method I had to strain seeds as my food mill had too large of holes to keep the seeds from falling through. This Gvode fruit and vegetable strainer worked perfectly with little effort! Here is what works:PROS: 1. I found that 10 cups of whole raspberries was all the basket could process in one go before the strainer became full of seeds and needed to be washed out before processing the next batch. 2. The clean up between batches was as easy as UNPLUGGING your machine FIRST, (sorry, my bad) unscrewing the retention collar, lifting out the basket and running it under the faucet. Just a water stream and a little rubbing took all the seeds off. Carefully remove just the extension to the worm drive but LEAVE IN the drive shaft that the extention connects to so no juice or seeds get inside your motor housing. There is an O-ring in that drive shaft that seals fluids from leaking into the machine during operation. Scoop out the seeds (UNPLUG your machine before sticking your fingers in the housing!) Scoop out the seeds inside the housing, replace the worm drive extension, replace the strainer cone and re-tighten with the collar and you're good to go for the next batch. (FYI for those who want to know, it takes 20 cups of whole berries to produce 10 cups of juice)3. Final clean up is as simple as unplugging the machine; unscrewing the whole assembled attachment from the stand mixer and taking the set up to the sink for disassembly and washing. There is a cleaning brush that comes with the kit for cleaning the basket if you need it. NOTE: Insert the cleaning brush while continually TURNING the brush clockwise & continue to turn the brush clockwise as you back it out of the strainer basket or the bristles will get stuck in the holes and not come out. At all. Until you twist and back it out as described. Hence, FLEXIBLE bristle brush. Any baby bottle (flexible soft bristle brush) will work if wear out the original brush.CONS: 1. The last photo shows the only improvement they can make. The feeder tray on top only clips into the feeder shaft with no seal around the shaft to block fluids from leaking up the junction where they overlap. They mention that in the instructions, that if you are straining juicy foods (like tomatoes) you have to let the juices drain down below the rim before continuing or it will leak. Why they don't just add a fix to it I don't know. The work around was as simple as using the bowl to my stand mixer as my collection bowl to begin with, which is wide enough to catch any juice leaking down from under the tray.2. There is no specific instruction on what that little round ring device is with the "wing" tabs in the kit. I finally decided that it must be a support for the sausage stuffer cone. After you grind your meat unplug it & carefully remove just the gringing blade and extruder plate; you are through using them. To use the sausage stuffer, place that support ring over the worm drive fitting the "wings" into the same slots the plate had rested in. Add the cone over it making sure the tabs stay in the slots & tighten the retention collar. You can now feed the seasoned sausage back through the attachment and fill your casings.3. There is no specific illustration on how to use the pusher device as a wrench to unscrew the retention collar if you accidentally screwed it on too tight. The "groves" on the collar ring are very rounded so the edges of the pusher do no fit in those depressions at all for giving you any traction or leverage to unscrew the ring. My Kitchenaid Brand grinder actually comes with a wrench for this purpose but that wrench is too small to be used interchangeably for this brand. Whats up Gvode? Overall, the leaky issue is a non-issue. I would not give up using it as all of the positives well outnumbered this one annoyance.

just... no
this thing is horrible I regret buying it. I kept it in its box too long and by the time I opened it I was too busy to return it. chunky juice this thing might as well be a blender. Also doesn't get most of the juice out before spiting it out. The size of it is so awkward it sticks out too far and the thing falls off even after being tightened many times. which if not caught in time will spin the juicer and dump everything everywhere. I can't see it lasting more than a few months every thing but the piece that goes into the mixer is made of plastic... I thought since it was KitchenAid the durability would be better.

Perfect juice attachment
This juicer works amazingly well with my KitchenAid. It’s easy to attach, simple to clean, and produces a good amount of juice with very little pulp. I’ve tried it with carrots, apples, and leafy greens and it handled everything without a problem. Definitely worth it if you already own a KitchenAid mixer!
