I thought about it, but I never did. I already have a Cusinart food processor & a Vitamix blender. I figured that anything else that I might need, that I can do it by hand. What about any of you guys?

Yeah, I've got the pasta attachment and and a few other things, but I've been so busy working i haven't had a chance to use them yet.Nope. Someone gave me the meat grinder attachment and a couple of years later, when he bought a new KA mixer to replace the one he lost in a divorce, I gave it right back, still in the same bag, never touched.
Only if you have to stand and deliver.Do I need a stand mixer?
Like most things in life, it’s as much a want as a need, I suppose.I don't have a stand mixer - so no accessories! Do I need a stand mixer? Not as far as I know. Maybe someone can tell me why I might need one...
The last thing I always use it for - I make a cheese ball every Christmas and it’s great for that.
We used to use the meat grinder a lot for making andouille sausage. The pork has to be in cubes when the spices are added to cure over night. Then the cubes and spices are ground together. We now have a dedicated grinder and stuffer from LEM. Grinding 30 pounds of sausage would be a PIA with the KA.We bought a Kitchen Aid some 20 years ago. Then for Xmas (about 15 years ago) my wife bought me the attachments to (a) grind meat (b) make spaghetti and bucatini.
They´re still in their original boxes, untouched. It´s easier to buy minced beef, and I use my Imperial pasta machine to make pasta.

I think MG doesn't have much of a sweet tooth but likes bread and finds hand-kneading bread dough therapeutic...am I right MG?Not unless you bake cakes, cookies or bread. I couldn't do that stuff by hand. Even though I like to bake at times!!
