My girlfriend took me up on a years old offer to buy her a KitchenAid mixer and had it in use making holiday cookies long before the holiday so I wanted something to put under the tree. We try to eat healthy, have a spiralizer and like "zoodles" so I thought the Vegetable Sheet Cutter would be another way to add healthy vegetables. I had also wrapped up some vegetables as "presents" to go with this so she tried it out on a zucchini and after a little fiddling said it worked well. We didn't actually have an intended use (part of a wrap) so on a whim she cut it in pieces and dehydrated the thin sheet zucchini - with no added anything our playing has yielded a rival to kale-chips. I'm looking forward to using the thick slice blade to cut sheets to use like lasagna ... MoreMy girlfriend took me up on a years old offer to buy her a KitchenAid mixer and had it in use making holiday cookies long before the holiday so I wanted something to put under the tree.

I'm looking forward to using the thick slice blade to cut sheets to use like lasagna noodles. While the quality is good and the price-point understandable as a luxury rather than a necessity I don't expect to ever use it enough to reduce the cost per use to pennies - but still over all pleased with the product. The only "complaint" is the directions could have a bit more detail but fortunately one would have to try very hard to use it incorrectly.

So I've had the spiralizer attachment for a few years and use it pretty often, but when it comes to making Veggie Lasagna, I was stuck making a difficult slice with a sharp nice (which resulted in "noodles" that were too thick) or my mandolin, which I routinely cut my hand with because you can't use the gripper thing that comes with it when slicing a long vegetable like a zucchini... it also often gets jammed up and creates messy/uneven noodles. This attachment goes on my mixer easily and makes PERFECT noodles! Much like the spiralizer, you need to choose your vegetables carefully, the straighter & more symmetrical the vegetable, the better this is going to go for you. You also need to be very careful to get the vegetable centered when you load it or you will waste ... MoreSo I've had the spiralizer attachment for a few years and use it pretty often, but when it comes to making Veggie Lasagna, I was stuck making a difficult slice with a sharp nice (which resulted in "noodles" that were too thick) or my mandolin, which I routinely cut my hand with because you can't use the gripper thing that comes with it when slicing a long vegetable like a zucchini... it also often gets jammed up and creates messy/uneven noodles.

You also need to be very careful to get the vegetable centered when you load it or you will waste a lot of it. This worked great for store bought zucchini & summer squash, but some of the more irregular farmers market ones would not fare well. Fat sweet potatoes do not fit on here, you need to buy skinnier more cylindrical ones but so far they are my favorite to make a big wide noodle with and toss with butter & sage. I feel like this would also be a great way to prep things for the dehydrator or to make fancy garnishes with. Overall, really satisfied with this, I think probably the best way to go about getting a sheet of veggies and very user friendly. Not that I needed another reason to love my kitchenaid but happy to have one!

I purchased stnad mixer artisan and 7 kitchenaid attachments including vegie sheet cutter several months ago. When trying this first time, the food holder and food skewer broke off. I don't even know where to get these replacement parts. Does this mean that I need purchase the whole vegie cutter attachment again? The week plastic skewer does not seem to hold heavy vegetables well. For overall skewers of even other attachments, they don't seem to stabilize the tangential force well in place. If you can either let me know where I can get this part or send me one, it will be appreciated although this material will still may be the same level of rigidity.
