Purchased this as a gift for my daughter.I have this set and I knew she would love this attachment! She has young children and this attachment helps her prepare meals with ease! It's fun to use and works well for making salads and grating cheese, and so much more! The blades are very sharp but the plastic strips keep your fingers safe. Super easy to use, Put any items you want shredded or spiraled into the top plastic tube and press down using the press that is provided with the set. Quality plastic material, thick and sturdy. Save money buy shredding your cheese at home!
