I love mine, They are so strong you could mix cement with it. I have all those goodie attachments. I can wash the apples and cut them up with stems and skin and cook them a little and then put them in this attachment thingie and all the skin and stuff comes out one bowl and applesauce comes out the other. You can add Sugar and Cinnamon if you like or make apple butter. You can do this with alot of stuff. I have the pasta maker and made fabulous homemade noodles. I have made at least 25 dozen cookies in the last few weeks and the mixer helps alot. Creams the sugar and butter so good.
