good addition - Review written on January 20, 2008

Quite helpful for any use of the grinder attachment...Try it and I think you will agree, especially if your grinding efforts are a two person activity.

Ok it's expensive - Review written on December 05, 2007

Rating: 5 out of 5

For a piece of white plastic, it's expensive. But, if you are going to do a lot of grinding or making salsa, this trays for you!

This thing works great for grinding hamburger or just about anything you need to grind a lot of. You just load the tray up, throw in what you need and grind away.

This thing will leak liquids so it works best with solid stuff.

It's a good buy and it works.

Great for sausage! - Review written on November 01, 2007

Rating: 4 out of 5

The extended tray works really well and reduces the need to replenish the product to be ground by at least 60%. It really should have came from Kitchenaide this way. The only downside is that it "clicks" and locks in via sliding it onto the existing grinder and can come de-tatched if force is applied in the wrong direction. All in all a "Must Have' if you have a grinder!

Expensive for a bit of plastic - Review written on May 16, 2007

I need this for the attatchments for my "KitchenAid" mixer, but it gets three stars mostly because of price, too expensive. It could be deeper and wider as well. Canning tomato juice and paste for a family of eight requires bigger. For such a powerful mixer, the attatchments are under-sized.

I bought this along with the sausage stuffer attachment to use with the food grinder that I already had. It is easy to slide on to the grinder tray and helps with large batches of food going into the grinder/stuffer. It's not a must have, hence only four stars, but it does what it is supposed to do.

The standard size tray is waaay too small. This device serves an essential function

It works fine except that the juices from the tomatoes leak out. Good for dry things but not for juicy items.

A must-have for big jobs - Review written on March 20, 2002

This tray makes big jobs easier. You can get by with the smaller one that comes with the grinder, but if you're gonna be making large quantities, save yourself some stress and buy this tray, it helps a lot.

Since there isn't a photo of this food tray, I'll first describe it to you. It's made from the same white plastic that the rest of the kitchenaid attachements are made from. It's about 10 inches long, The same width as the food grinder tray. The lip is about an inch deep. It slides over the top of the food grinder tray providing a pretty good fit. It's not a water tight fit however.

The tray is nice when you are laddling in things to be ground up. It helps keep the items from falling into the bowl of already ground up stuff. If you are into large batches of apple sauce or meat, its worth getting.

If you are grinding a soup up it keeps the splatter out but the seal with the food grinder is not water tight, so you can't really overload it.

I like it, its well made, if you are a careful cook you can live without it. If you are looking for a gift for a cook who has it all, it would be a good present.
