I don't have any of those attachment. I also have no use for such,,, since I don't make those things. No need for pasta maker. I have a hand operated one that never was used. I also have no need for a meat grinder. I know it can be used to grind other things than meat,,,,,,, but have no desire to grind anything.@cavemanrich, do you have any of the attachments that it can run, like the spiralizer gizmo?
But my machines do get a workout kneading my bread, and cake doughs. If I had to do things by hand,,,, yes, I still could,,, but that would take all my joy out of "easy-peasy"
My mom baked all her life,,, and lived to a full age. Never had a KitchenAid. She did have a small electric hand mixer to mix things like egg whites. Maybe even pull pancake batter,,, but not dough.
I can still see her, ,,,,, making the recipes that I now do.
