Good basic juicer attachment. Fits on mixer snugly, and doesn't bind, no matter bow hard you press. Because the juicer gets all it's power from the mixer, it's variable speed, which is a nice feature to have.
The only downside is that it's a bit of a pain to get on and off. You have to use the shaft of the juicer to unscrew a cap on the mixer, then use the plastic bowel of the juicer as a wrench to screw the entire assembly on to the mixer. This isn't too bad in and of itself, but I wonder how the plastic bowl will hold up under the stress. They don't make plastic wrenches for a reason ;-). I've had it for a month or two so far, and it hasn't had any problems though.

I really like this attachment and use it frequently. That said, I have some suggestions:
For users-
1. Use the KitchenAid mixing bowl to catch the juice, and place a large standard kitchen strainer across the bowl. This speeds things up a lot!
2. Rub some shortening on the aluminum shaft before inserting it into the brass sleeve. If you use your juicer a lot, this will greatly prolong its life.
For KitchenAid-
1. The plastic piece that inserts into the mixer should be made out of metal, instead of plastic with a metal sleve. On mine the plastic is cracking away from the brass.
2. The aluminum shaft should be brass or steel. As it is, the bearing surface is a small area of aluminum that even when lubricated, is showing lots of wear.
