Editorial Review:
Use these lightweight plastic tubes to stuff your home-ground meats into natural casings for hand-made sausages. The small tube shoots out breakfast-sausage-size links; the larger one is great for boudin blanc, Italian sausage, and more. Each works in conjunction with KitchenAid's food grinder attachment, and the set comes with instructions for handling and stuffing casings.

great kitchen aid attachment:
these come in really handy for sausage stuffing, i've also used them to grab off pieces and roll into meatballs for soups and sauces. the price was hard to beat too.

The thing barely works:
I usually do my research before buying, and to do this I read the worst reviews. Had I done this in this case I never would have purchased the stuffer. As many have said, the biggest problem is with the plunger which is not wide enough to fit the chute. Meat squishes up on the sides and sticks to it. The result is overworking & heating the meat which is bad. Unlike others, I had no problem getting the casings on or with them ripping. I'm glad the stuffer tubes are only a cheap add-on for the... more info
Bad design, but better than nothing:
After reading the other reviews I went ahead and purchased the stuffer, thinking "I only make sausage a little at a time, the size of it shouldn't effect me". Boy was I wrong! The design is really terrible. The top hole is so small that every time you push the meat in you can barely get the plunger out because there is such a strong suction. Also, you can only put the tiniest beat of meat at a time, or when you try to push it down it all just splatters to the side. All those things being said, it does beat... more info
