Amazon.com Review
When mixing up big batches of cookies or bread with a KitchenAid mixer, you don't want to have to stop to wash the bowl. An extra bowl to fit the mixer is a welcome addition to a kitchen arsenal, and this bowl earns its place in the cupboard, because it will also be used as a versatile mixing bowl independent of the mixer. It's made of thick polished stainless steel with a brushed steel interior and a flat base to rest securely on the counter. It has a sturdy handle and two brackets for fitting into the mixer. Its superb quality will last through a lifetime of cooking. --Marcie Bovetz

Be careful - not for Artisan mixers!
While the product description states that this bowl is for all 5-quart mixers, this is no longer the case. This bowl is only for the 5-quart mixers with a bowl-lift lever. If you own one of the new Artisan mixers with a tilt-head, you will need a different bowl. KitchenAid makes this bowl, but Amazon doesn't carry it yet.

This is a 5-star product, but make sure it is the correct model for your mixer.

The correct 5-quart bowl numbers
If you do a lot of cooking or baking, an extra bowl will sure come in handy. But save yourself the headache and double-check your model number before ordering, since different models have different shaped bowls or mounting brackets. Here's the information I received directly from KitchenAid customer support:

- this bowl #K5ASBP, is for 5 quart "Classic" mixers and fits models K5, KSM5, K5SS, and KP50PS
- bowl #KN25PBH fits models that start with KG
- bowl #KN25NSF fits models that start with KM
- bowl #KN15PBEH only fits the discontinued "Accolade" mixers that start with KN15E1X.
- The service person said that bowl #KN25WPBH is "incorrectly listed" on the KitchenAid website as a 5-quart bowl and that it is actually a 6-quart bowl for 6-quart mixers. I found a LOT of discrepancy regarding this when searching the internet, so I'd recommend you do a little more research or call KitchenAid at your time of purchase for confirmation.

Not for ALL 5 Quart Stand Mixers - Make sure it fits yours!
I bought this for my wife as a gift. We have a KG25H7X 5 Quart Professional HD Mixer, purchased (and probably only sold) at a major warehouse club where things generally don't Cost too much. Because it was summer and we weren't doing much baking, it sat in the cupboard for the better part of six months. When we finally did have a need for a second bowl, we were shocked to find that it didn't fit our particular model of mixer. It comes close, but it is obviously a slightly different diameter.

Five stars because I'm sure it's a great bowl for the mixers that it fits, but make sure your mixer is one of those!
