KitchenAid GMA Grain Mill Attachment for Stand Mixers Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This attachment reveals a design flaw in the Kitchenaid Mixer design. Inside every Kitchenaid Mixer you have a transmission/gearbox that drive both the mixer and the accessory drive shaft. This gearbox has a PLASTIC cover that holds all the gears in place.
The grain mill attachment places the *most* stress on your kitchenaid, more than any other attachment you can buy. What happens is when you're grinding wheat, it heats up that gearbox and the plastic cover starts to flex, and if you run it more than 10 minutes it'll heat up enough to break the plastic.
I bought this attachement for my wife for Christmas 2004. It broke the transmission and stripped the gears on the mixer in January. We removed the cover and saw the cracked plastic. Kitchenaid promptly sent a replacement mixer even though ours was "out of warranty". This tells me that they KNOW about their design flaw.
We got our shiny new Kitchenaid Mixer the next week. My wife took it out of the box, attached the grain mill and started it grinding flour. Within 10 minutes the plastic cover failed on the new one. Kitchenaid sent out a new one, again. We're now on our third mixer and we're looking to get a refund from Kitchenaid for the Grain Mill so we can go out and buy a real wheat grinder.
It's really sad. All Kitchenaid needs to do is put a metal gearbox cover on the transmission and you could grind wheat into flour non-stop. I can't believe that they're willing to stake their good name on a plastic part!

K.AID PASTA ROLLER/CUTTER Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Mrs. asked me to get this for her and I am so glad I did! The homemade pasta is awesome, it's also great knowing what is going into the pasta as well. Not to mention that this has paid for its self in about 6 months (granted it gets used multiple times a week). Recommend getting a Ravioli cutter with it - knowing what is going into your pasta stuffing is just as awesome. Well worth the price, well designed and easy to clean.
