Does not fit 9 cup prosessor 1 out of 5 stars.

I recently bought a new fp from Amazon as well as this disc set. Upon arrival I found that this set will not fit the new 9 cup fp. I called the vendor and was told that I was wrong and was disconnected. I called kitchenaid and my findings were confirmed. The set only fits an older 9 cup fp. I ordered the set from KitchenAid. The reason I gave the set only one star was for the following reasons. First the set does not fit. Secondly, the vender ( Ace Hardware )was very rude by hanging up.
Very useful, but limited by the feed tube 4 out of 5 stars.

These are great discs for the food processor. They are sharp and work well. The problem is really that the machine they fit has a small feed tube. I e-mailed KitchenAid and asked them to sell a separate replacement lid with a wide-mouth feed tube to really take advantage of the french fry disc, and others. They said that is not going to happen.
The french fry disc is not really useful for french fries because they come out very short. However, it is great for dicing fruits and vegetables--tomatoes, peppers, onions, strawberries, etc. When you can't just process things with the regular blade because the pieces get too small, this disc is wonderful.
The ice/parmesan disc is for harder foods that you would normally grate manually, like ginger or parmesan. (Works great on parmesan. You can turn a block of fresh parmesan into a mound of fluffy shredded cheese in seconds.) Theoretically it would work for lemon zest, too, but I haven't yet worked out how to that well. The larger shredding disc and thicker slicing discs also come in handy.
Overall, the discs expand the versatility of the processor and worth getting, IMHO.
Editorial Review:
To get the maximum use from your KitchenAid food processor, you'll want to add these 5 discs and complete the set. Each one performs in the same reliable manner you'd expect from a KitchenAid product. Set includes: 6mm Shredder, 6mm slicer, French fry cutting, julienne and parmesan/ice grating discs. Take the time previously spent prepping and use it for more important things... like entertaining. Stainless steel discs are all dishwasher safe. Use with 9- and 11-cup KitchenAid food processors.
