I always hand wash all of my kitchen aid products. - Comes with a variety of cutting blades. Spiralizing (Medium and Fine), Slicing (Large and Small Core), and an optional Peeling Blade. - Fits in the cabinet for easy storage when not in use. Haven’t found any cons to this product yet.

The KitchenAid Fruit and Vegetable Spiralizer Attachment has been a game-changer in my kitchen! It’s easy to attach to my KitchenAid stand mixer, and the process of spiralizing fruits and vegetables is almost effortless. I’ve used it for everything from zucchini noodles to curly fries, and it delivers consistent results every time. The multiple blade options are fantastic for creating different styles, and cleaning the attachment is surprisingly simple. It’s also sturdy and feels like it will last a long time. If you enjoy adding creative, healthy options to your meals, this spiralizer is worth every penny. It’s made meal prep fun and efficient, and I can’t imagine going back to manual spiralizers after using this! Highly recommend for anyone with a KitchenAid mixer.

I have used this on about 4 apples so far. It is really easy to use and it works fine for me. it is packed in a nice, reuseable storage box with magnetic closure. I was happily surprised by this but very nice. There are a lot of accessories and I don't have a cabinet to put this in so I store it in the box in the pantry. The parts are labelled and that is also helpful in choosing a blade. I have only used the thickest slicing blade so far for Granny Smith apples. This blade spiral slices my apples and takes the core out. The slice is a good size for pies, snacks, and dehydrating. I also used the peeling attachment on the first apple and it worked flawlessly. One continuous peel came off the apple. I just slice a little, momstly peel, from the bottom of the apple to make it flat and easier to engage the spike. Since I get to center the spike attached to the mixer to the center of the apple at the bottom and the core blade at the center of the apple at the top. It cores the apple very cleanly. So far, I have not had any seeds in the processed apple and to not lose a lot of fruit. I did the assembly and operated the unit without reading any instructions initially so it is easy to use. Later, I read the instructions. I was leaving the mixer on stir but instructions indicate to start on stir and then you can go up to speed 4. I have used that also and it processes the apple quite quickly. Cleaning is easy, just a quick rinse and it is done. I had very little juice from my Granny Smith apples. The attachment slices cleanly minimizing squeezing the juice out. The blade stops cutting automatically. This is a worm gear that the blade travels on. When it reaches the end of the screw portion, it simply stops travelling. You don't have to worry about cutting the machine off at the right time. I will use this for other foods eventually. For now, I can spiral slice my apples, then make one cut down one side and I have a plate of apple slices to snack on. Great!

Works as intended. Wife likes to test out & see what variations she can do with different recipes

MOST METAL AND PLASTIC PARTS ARE SUBSTANTIAL --- BUT STILL WISH SOME PARTS WERE NOT PLASTIC & SOME METAL PARTS COULD BE MORE SUBSTANTIAL A BRIEF PROS AND CONS REVIEW I have wonderful memories as a kid making preserved apples and apple pies with my family using a utensil similar to this that screwed onto a thick wood counter top. Snacking on fresh apple spirals as my mom worked on the crust. Our device back then didn't have the extra options these machines do now. This attachment has substantial feeling parts in terms of it's body and bases, and is an absolute snap to attach and put together. Some parts feel a little less substantial but not necessarily cheap. With all the really fun stuff you can do (Kitchenaid already supplies a lot of photos), you just might even get a finicky child to eat their vegetables in those spirally straw shapes. The metal is fairly thick and sturdy, but there are still some plastic parts and some thin metal by design, and even aluminum in areas you might not expect given other very sturdy parts. Most of the plastic is also quite sturdy though. As you can see, the back end with prongs that stick into the core has plastic spikes and the small skewer feels more like aluminum rather than steel. I worry about those parts in the long run. However, I had no problem with slippage on things such as large apples or potatoes. All the attachments are dishwasher safe though the body is supposed to be hand washed according to the information. It's a great way to change the texture of your food and eat more fresh things. SOME GREAT THINGS MADE EASY -- THINGS YOU CAN DO, AND SOME THINGS YOU CANNOT: --- With quick set up you can start running apples through for storage or apple pies in quick succession. Peel or don't peel while you spiral them through. It's just a matter of sliding the peeler attachment onto the setup. For those who have not used a spiralizer, you do have to cut the spirals down the middle to make them into just slices (after creating the spirals on the machine). That's not a big deal obviously. Whether you are making potato fries, apple pies, or thinner sliced fresh apple or vegetable bags for lunch, this thing makes them easy. --- There is no end of cool things you can make with the spiral straws from vegetables, from unique textured soups to salads your kids might even find fun. I have a spiral potato/onion thing I came up with that is fried like a bloomin onion that I think is awesome! The imagination is the only limit. --- There is a large core slicer and a small core slicer for different sized fruits or vegetables. Those adjust to the size of the core on the front end metal gripper (back end spikes are plastic as I mentioned) and will make a smaller or larger core left over as appropriate. However, they cut roughly the same size thickness of slice and YOU CANNOT ADJUST THE THICKNESS OF THINGS LIKE APPLE OR POTATOTO SLICES. Both the small and large core slicer cut just slightly greater than 1/8th inch thickness. --- As with most spiralizers, it works best when you can make the produce reasonably symmetrical by cutting ends off and any weird large bumps like potato eyes. It is not made for soft, pulpy fruits of course. That seems intuitive, but they actually state that. BRIEF RECAP OF NEGATIVES: Though I love this machine, I don't want to sound unrealistic with points to consider: There are rare parts that seem less substantial despite overall feeling of quality. The thickness of vegetable slices cannot be adjusted. The container box is a bit bulky (this attachment is a little bigger than you might expect), but you can always put that away. The peeler tool takes a pretty thick skin off, so you may feel you are wasting a tiny bit on apples and other thin skinned vegetables, though potatoes are a little more appropriate. There are cheaper options for those not into the Kitchenaid total nexus for the Stand Mixer. FINAL THOUGHTS: In my opinion this is partly about Kitchenaid user ability to replace another kitchen tool and keep it combined in one convenient kitchen tool system. I love having lots of options to attach to my mixer. But truthfully you can accomplish these tasks with a much less expensive tool. It may or may not be as substantial. It may even cut different width slices that this one won't. But if you use the stand mixer already, this is a terrific accessory. One of my favorites actually. It really comes down to what you need in your kitchen and what you want to spend. As I said before, I would feel more comfortable with at least one part being steel rather than plastic. But then more parts of this product are metal than a lot of spiralizers out there so I really can't complain that much. Amazon does not allow inserting links to other company product pages. But if you go to the Kitchenaid web site you can view very slick demonstration videos for this product.

parfait pour éplucher les pommes, faire des jolies tranches préparer des entrées de légumes esthétiques. Vraiment contente je conseille

Solo tener mucho cuidado, está súper filoso! Lo ame! Tiene muchísimas funciones

I am so happy I went ahead and picked up this attachment. I had been spiralizing zucchini with one of the hand-held devices that works like a pencil sharpener. But I really wanted to try making spirals of larger vegetables like yams. There are three blades for different thicknesses of spiral strands (as well as blades for spiral slicing and the optional peeler). They all work very well. Yam "noodles" are excellent! I don't boil them. Rather, I toss them with olive oil and then put them in a hot (400 degree) oven for 10-15 minutes on a baking sheet. They are delicious with a good marinara. I use this attachment at least once a week. It comes in a great box that serves as a storage container which is easily stored and pulled out when needed. Get one!

Let's face it, nobody needs a £150 spiralizer - so when I saw this on sale for less than half that I leaped at it. If you just want to TRY a spiralizer than I recommend buying a £15 plastic one to start with. However, if you have a Kitchenaid stand mixer and you know that you will use a spiralizer a lot this is the way to go. It is well thought out, easy to clean, and it comes in a decent storage box - albeit a cardboard one. With KitchenAid products, it is not a given that the design will be good. Their mixers are great, but some of the other (matching) products we have bought have fallen short in their design. This was not one of them

Not very impressed- I live all my other kitchen aid gadgets but this doesn’t work very well
