I love my KitchenAid mixer, and was very upset when I found out that loaning it to someone meant the flat beater silicone coat came back with a slash in it! I found it reassuring that others had this happen through sheer use, but I think the burnished beater should have been the original one issued. I was leery from the first of putting the original into the dishwasher, but now I won’t be putting any of my attachments into the dishwasher! I should close by saying that the company sent the part IMMEDIATELY and it arrived in perfect condition. Thank you for quality products and service!

I went back and forth between this burnished beater and the coated one. I used to not like the fact that you cannot put this beater in the dishwasher and that it looks like “raw” metal that would react with the food. However, after having two nylon-coated beater wearing out on me, I decided that I would rather handwash my beater every time than to have nylon chips in my baked goods. Now I use this burnished beater and New Metro Design Beater Blade for KitchenAid 5-Quart Tilt-Head Mixers, Pink depending on the thickness of the dough. Love them both.

I was never happy with the plastic coated beater attachment for my KitchenAid Mixer. The coating started coming off and last thanksgiving it discolored the batter for my cheesecake and cakes. Final straw as the saying goes. I went right to Amazon and bought the burnished aluminum beater, and I’m much more pleased with it. I’ve used the industrial size mixer with the burnished attachments before, so it was a surprise that kitchenaids home product would ship with such an inferior quality piece. BUT… I LOVE THE NEW ONE!!!

This beater replaces the one shipped w/my new Artisan mixer. I agree w/other reviewers that this should be the beater shipped w/the mixer. After using my cheap, painted beater for a short time – it started flaking! My beater-to-bowl clearance was correct. When I complained to KA, I got an email explaining how to check the clearance & directing me to their overpriced website to buy a new beater. I was not impressed & fortunately, they are not the only place to buy a new beater. KA has slipped in quality over the last several years. I have an old KA mixer (20+ years) that I moved to my weekend house when I got the new Artisan. That beater/mixer is fine & has seen a lot of work.
This uncoated beater has to be hand washed or it will discolor….if they just went back to their old coating formula, we wouldn’t have this problem!

When I received a new KitchenAid mixer last year, one of the Artisan series, I knew I needed to get an extra beater for those times when I did a lot of cooking and baking. I quickly found that it was almost impossible to find a white-coated replacement beaters for this model. My only choice was this burnished flat beater. While it fits the mixer and bowl, it is NOT dishwasher-safe, a big drawback when it comes to clean up. I stuck it in the dishwasher anyway when I was in a hurry, and the beater came out discolored with white spots all over it. Big mistake.
Yes, it is sturdy. And yes, it fits. But it does not have the same durable finish that the original beater has and that KitchenAid has been using for decades. I wish KitchenAid had given me a choice to buy the traditional white replacement or this one. I finally bought a second beater from a different manufacturer: New Metro Design Beater Blade for 5-Quart KitchenAid Tilt-Head Mixers, White
