Po5 how much did it cost for delivery?

**Party-of-five** · January 12th, 2011, 11:44 AM

I have a friend going to the US and at Macy's they have the shredder for US$60. I'm going to get that as I don't think I'll use the other attachments. I'm also hoping for a cover if they have it.

Oh I called my KA Betty Boysenberry

**Party-of-five** · January 13th, 2011, 10:51 AM

And there's no dramas with them working on oz machines? Is it only the ice-cream maker that doesn't work?
I'm currently researching cause I think I'm going to get one!! I even recorded tvsn the other day when they were demoing them!! They did ice cream which looked so awesome but I wouldn't have room for the bowl attachment in my freezer

**Kel001** · January 13th, 2011, 02:52 PM

Ooooh - I'm joining in too - I got mine for Xmas! It's bright red and matches my kettle and toaster

I got the baking attachments with it, but there are so many others that would be awesome to have.
DH says our house always smells like a bakery and the kitchen looks like one! He's wondering why he didn't get me one sooner - LOL
I have re-discovered my love of baking things from scratch much to the joy (and possible weight gain) of my family

Haven't named it yet, though.............

Ezmay - if it goes into the hob then it fits the european models. I have the pasta attachment and accessory pack from the USA and they work and fit perfectly. The ice cream maker doesnt fit. Buying attachments from the USA does void their warranty as they are only covered in the country of purchase but i figure that they are 1/3 of the cost here so if they do break then i can afford to replace them and still save money

I am very pleased to announce the addition to our family of Beatrice, my lovely new Boysenberry baby.

I printed off the POK webpage and took it to DJ's Chadstone. They agreed to price match without too much problem so she cost me $619 - bargain!!

Now to decide on attachments...

**CharlieBrownGirl** · January 13th, 2011, 08:02 PM

That's awesome Nickle! Congratulations!
The boysenberry is a great colour choice

**Party-of-five** · January 13th, 2011, 09:04 PM

tonight we had tandori chicken burgers

so yum
I was so proud that I accualy minced something

**nickle730** · January 14th, 2011, 07:52 AM

Mmmm... tandoori chicken burgers, yum!

I just ordered the accessory pack from amazon - sooo much cheaper. I got a cover too, in case Beatrice feels cold. I didn't get the ice cream maker (which I really want!) because I remember reading that the amazon one doesn't work in Oz. Can anyone confirm that that's correct??

**Party-of-five** · January 14th, 2011, 09:04 AM

nickle730 yep thats correct I was going to get one too but there is lots of feedback about them on the fb kitchenaid page. I cant believe the price difference!!
Im thinking of getting the pasta press thingy next but Ive never ever made pasta before so Im trying to justify the cost

**Nicambhar** · January 15th, 2011, 07:57 AM

Yeeeeehaaaaaaa, I just ordered the grater and mincer pack. I can't wait.... DF was eating his chilli last night and said he thinks the grated cheese would have tasted better if it were grated on the KA.... PML
