Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid 9 and 12-Cup Food Processor French Fry DiscCustomer Review: French Fry Cutter Summary: 2 Stars
You must have a wide mouth food processor to use this item. Otherwise your french fries will be very short and they won't resemble french fries at all. I have tried the disc on both types of food processors and I have found it may even be best to hand cut the potatos.
Customer Review: Great Fries - But I have a Wide Mouth... Summary: 5 Stars
When I finally decided to purchase this after thinking about it for several months, there were only 2 reviews (both 2 stars) and I ignored them since the only specific complaint was that it makes stubby little fries if you don't have the wide mouth feed tube. That makes sense, but I have a big mouth (on my food processor) and even if I didn't, I wouldn't completely mind stubby fries as long as I didn't have to cut them myself. Inspecting the product, we noticed that the cutters are not uniform in width (see photo) and I was fearful that I might have to put up 3 stars and be somewhat saddened by the quality of the fry. Upon cutting my first russet with this disc, although the difference in widths of the fries was obvious (see photo), it wasn't quite as bad as I feared - so I was thinking maybe 4 stars. However, after frying up several batches of fries for dinner, I realized that the difference in widths is not significant enough to cause problems in how they cooked. The fries came out cooked exactly how I would expect - some browner than others but none of them underdone or too crispy. So yes, the fries are different widths, but no, it doesn't cause any problems. Oh, and this could've been a fluke, but the top was completely clear of potatoes when I was all done - that's never happened when I've used other discs for potatoes. As for the quality and durability - it seems even sturdier than my other discs.
