InnoMoon Sausage Stuffer Kit for KitchenAid plastic FGA Food Grinder Attachment, For Kitchen Aid Sausage Attachment, 3 Stainless Steel Stuffing Tubes Plus 1 Retainer Ring

Sure, there were 'less expensive' kits available, but those sets are more likely to burst apart, or to cause you other problems due to their construction and structure.The hips on this set are shaped to prevent the tubes from "blowing out" and to assure that there is no 'leakage' where the hips meet the filler machine (under the screw on cap). The ones with the rounded bowed-out hips are not good because structurally, they allow the pressure from the meat to build up which will cause problems. The hips on these redistribute the meat so that there is no build up of pressure and the product works perfectly as is expected.These are thicker than I thought they would be for this price. I was very pleased with the thickness because this will ensure that I can use these for years to come without them splitting. Although, they appear to have been molded in two pieces. The tubes, and the hips being welded together after manufacturing them. Welding was apparent on the largest and the smallest (there is a line around each where they are welded together-you can view this in the main photo for this product on the largest tube shown), but you could not tell that the medium sized tube was welded as there was no line at all. This construction makes for a stronger tube that has undergone less stress during the manufacturing process.Edges were clean and not sharp enough to cut the hand that is using, or cleaning them. They are metal edges, so you still have to be safety minded when using and cleaning them.The plastic retainer ring...I really wish that was metal...the job of that ring is to ensure that the meat is redistributed so that it flows equally without damaging the machine or your casings. So, plastic works fine, I just wish it were metal so it would last better over time.Overall, I would highly recommend this particular product.

Well made and works, I had to modify the spacer to fit (kitchenaid) but not worth dropping a star over. Satisfied with the purchase.

I bought a grinder that only came with one size tube. These worked perfectly with the grinder giving me other options. Easy to clean and stainless steel. Exactly what I expected.

Fit in my kitchen aid stand mixer sausage attachment great! Was wasy to assemble. The plastic piece that comes with it is in place of the cutting blades. The plastic piece holds the auger in place when you're just stuffing sausage.Great purchase for they money. Worked great, you can see my sausage in the pics. I'm using cellulose casings from Cabellas.My only complaint about the whole operation(not the product) was that there was a lot of sausage left over around the auger and into the tube. I had to use the next smallest tube with a paper towel to push the rest of the sausage down. Not the fault of the manufacturer, it's just the way the KitchenAid machine is designed.Cleanup was a bit messy, for the entire operation, but you're making sausage. Cleanup for the tubes was easy.Several reviews have complained of rust, but I plan on putting a good coat of oil on the tubes before I put them up to prevent any rust.I've also heard complaints about the seam between the horn and the tube. I guess bacteria can get stuck in there if you don't wash them with soap and water. It was not a problem for me.I did need to wash the tubes before I use them because there was naturally some machine oil on them. I would expect that with any machined part.Overall it was a great product and it did exactly what it said it was going to do.

Works great! Sometimes low tech gadgets are all you need!

I bought this set because the smallest original plastic one that came with the Kitchen Aid grinder was tapered on the outside; I had a really difficult time getting a decent amount of 1/2” casing on it. The small one in this set was much better, I was able to cram 6-7’ of casing on at one time.At first I didn’t think they were right, they seemed too small on the flared end. But once I got it together, it was perfect. I didn’t use the little plastic thing it came with, I used the plastic ring that came with the grinder kit. I’m very happy with them, saved me a lot of time since I was able to load more casing at once.

I like this

The tubes appeared well made and sturdy. I was concerned that the edges of the tubes would cut the casing as it was slipped on. I wasn't prepared to make sausage when they arrived so I returned them because of my concern not because they actually did cut the casing.
