Lostinabook Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 For Christmas, my mom got me a Beater Blade for my KitchenAid mixer. I LOVE the thing! I don't need to use a rubber spatula at all to scrape the sides of the bowl--even if I'm making chocolate chip cookies. :) Also, I stupidly tried to mix a couple of whole sticks of frozen butter. That works fine with the metal blade, but it was too much stress on the plastic & the blade broke. BeaterBlade has a one year guarantee so I sent them an e-mail. They replied immediately (on a Friday night!) & just had me send the e-receipt. They sent me a new blade Monday via 2 day UPS. I am so impressed with their quick c/s!!

BikeBookBread Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) THANK YOU! My husband was just asking me what I wanted for my birthday....I think I have an answer now.

Shelly in IL Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I have two Kitchen Aid machines and they both came with one. They are wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostinabook Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Nope, I just had a flat blade, a whisk, & a dough hook. My mom even e-mailed KA to see if they had anything like this & they said they didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gardening momma Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Didn't your mixer come with one of these? I have two Kitchen Aid machines and they both came with one. They are wonderful. These are different--they have a rubber edge that scrapes the side of the bowl. Looks good--I've added it to my wishlist! Now the attachment I'm not really thrilled with is the dough hook. Before I got my Kitchen Aid, I had a Sunbeam stand mixer. It didn't have a single hook/blade/wisk--it had 2 of everything, like a hand mixer has. I liked the way the dough hooks worked together. Unfortunately, it just wasn't strong enough to actually handle dough for very long, and now it's only good for loose batters, like cake batter, quick breads, etc... So I have a Kitchen Aid now, but my dough climbs up the dough hook. I think the instruction book says to oil the hook, but that doesn't last long--just until it incorporates the oil into the dough, and then it climbs back up--usually up over the top of the hook attachment. Does anyone have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelly in IL Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 It has little windshield wiper blades on it - ok, no, my KA didn't come with that. I need one!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leaird Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 This sounds like something I just have to have! I haven't broken down and purchased any accessories for my KA mixer yet. This may be the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
