Since I have the KitchenAid grinder attachment (the plastic one), and since I sure don't want to ruin my grinder, can you provide a little more information about how it harmed your mixer? Did the motor stall and burn out? Did it strip the gear driving the attachment screw?
I haven't taken it anywhere to see whats exactly wrong with it, but it suddenly got louder and the speed droped considerably. It was warm, but no wheres near to hot to touch. I let it cool and turned it back on and the motor has a severe grinding noise.
Unit was just over two yrs old. I only used it to mix raw dog food up for one of my dogs that had special dietary needs. I made a 25#'s every month in 5# batches, so the mixer definitely wasn't used and abused.
I used the grinder only once. I worked ok, but it was painfully slow. Had to cut the meat in very small qubes.
