Editorial Reviews:

Use these lightweight plastic tubes to stuff your home-ground meats into natural casings for hand-made sausages. The small tube shoots out breakfast-sausage-size links; the larger one is great for boudin blanc, Italian sausage, and more. Each works in conjunction with KitchenAid's food grinder attachment, and the set comes with instructions for handling and stuffing casings.

Summary: Sausage Stuffer
Comment: The product works as expected, however I would not reccomend it for commercial use as it's a very time comsuming process.

Summary: Worthless Attachment for kitchenaid mixer
Comment: I have always like my kichenaid products. This stuffer is worthless. This was not my first time making sausage, and Ithough why not save some time and actually by a stuffer rather than use a funnel. I thought I would be saving time and effort, but boy was that wrong! I found it faster to stuff by hand (which I hate to do). It was impossible to control air entering into the stuffer and control the meat moving consistantly into the casing without getting too warm for food safety. I am going to buy a hand stuffer (maybe the Grizzly or a cabella's upright). It cracked the first time I used it, which it should not have done with the minimal amount of pressure put on it. I bought this at a store that is over 90 miles away so I will not be returning it. Until this point I had loved every attachemnet I had for my mixer, though my overall favorite is still the meat grinder. For that to work so well, why is the sausage stuffer soo pitifully bad.

Summary: Review not necessarily on product
Comment: This review is not necessarily on the product, but rather on the delivery of the product. I had ordered this as a gift for a friend. After waiting and finally recieving it, I proudly gave it to my friend. She excitedly opened it, only to find the product MISSING! While Amazon delivered another one, I found the process tedious to have to send it back in order to not be charged twice.

Summary: Awful
Comment: Impossible to get the meat down the feed tube. Once it's there, the suction from the pusher sucks most of the meat away from the auger. An awful purchase. Don't buy it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too elevated, too cumbersome and too slow
Comment: I purchased this kit along with the food grinder attachment so that I could make sausage without spending a ton on a separate stuffer. I'm now going to buy a separate stuffer. The kit worked, after a fashion, however...
Being a conversion kit to the grinder, it naturally is elevated about a foot or so above the counter. The means that you cannot allow the stuffed casings rest on the counter as you stuff. The weight pulls the casing off the horn.
Also, trying to feed the ground meat through the machine was messy and difficult. You had to feed meat in, add more meat periodically, control the feeding of the casing, hold the sausage as it filled and, since you're doing all this stuff at once, start and stop the machine periodically. It's nearing impossible and very frustrating for one person to do alone.
Also, depending on the consistency, much of the meat came back up the feeder neck as I pulled the plastic plunger out. This means re-feeding the meat 3 or 4 times before it actually gets through the machine. A /very/ slow process.
