KitchenAid 2-Pack Bowl Covers for Tilt-Head Stand Mixers

This is a great purchase for anyone who ever makes dough in the kitchen aid that requires some refrigeration. No more messing with annoying saran wrap or taking dough out of the bowl to put into a different bowl. I mostly use this for cookie dough, pie crust and homemade pasta. However it also works great for bread that needs to be covered, just place the lid on top without sealing it on. For the items I do need sealed up better, the lid does great. If the bowl had liquid in it and it tipped over, it won’t keep that all in, for for general purposes, it works great. I do like that it has the indentation on the top so I can store it on my kitchen aid bowl, without the kitchen-aid itself causing issues. I’ve owned these lids for a few years now, and am pretty sure they will hold up to the life of my kitchen-aid, meaning I should never have to purchase another set. I highly recommend these for any bakers, it is a great accessory to any kitchen aid! Just make sure you know the size & type of your kitchen aid first, otherwise you will have some fit issues.

***update: With a wedge cut out this lid will fit onto the glass bowl. So if you want a partial splash guard this could be for you.This lid came fast and fit my kitchenaid with a bowl stamped k45 on the bottom. The lid dips in center and all 3 + scraper paddle attachments fit with lid on. This does not just sit on my bowl, it fits like a plastic wear bowl lid would. On another review 1 smart person used 1 lid, by cutting center out, as a splatter shield. Another person did that plus cut a wedge off one side and added an ingredient shoot ( sold separately, in plastic or metal) which sits on that area of the bowl. I’m about to do the same. Then i have one whole cover and one shield.This bowl cover says it covers some 5 qt bowls as well. My bowl is k45 and the fit is perfect so I’m a bit skeptical. However, it could be true. If you have a 5 qt glass bowl this will not fit as that bowls rim is to wide and has a spout. That being said, when I try the wedge and shoot idea from above I wonder if it will fit then? P.S. the shoots wont work with the glass or ceramic bowls as the lip is to wide at top.
