How do you get the bowl to stay in place? I went from a bowl-lift stand mixer to this one and the bowl flew off when I started to mix it. HELP!

I believe it secures with a small turn/rotation. One direction secures the bowl and the other releases it. It's basically a thread but only rotates about 5 degrees.

It should have notches at the bottom of the bowl, they twist into place at the base.

There is a nob on the bowl that fits into the stand & when all else fails,read instructions.

Hello Cindy,The bowl locks into the base by giving it a quarter clockwise turn.

Sit the bowl on the platform and turn it to the left and it locks in place. You were kidding with this question weren't you?

I've not had to fuss with mine much at all. A couple tips? 1) the top goes 'on' in almost the lock position-the reach of my thumb is enough to ease it into the locked position. 2) this has a rubber-gasketed seal on the top, so if it gets too clean it will be hard to move into lock. A quick dab of flour or water or veg. oil and it moves very smoothly. 2 things I do like are that the blades click into place on the bowl so you don't have to contend with them falling out when you empty the bowl, and I think because of that and the gasket seal, you can process more liquids without making a mess.. Hope it helps. I've not had to fuss with mine much at all.

Yes，I met the same problem，I have to change a bigger bowl or put it in a cup instead of bowl.

Mine had a pin with a spring and ate holding it in. Almost like how a kitchenaid mixer you add beaters. Push up against the ring with the blade and turn to the notch. Comes off. Look up attach beater to kitchenaid on YouTube. Same concept but much smaller lol.

I have the same bowl and mine did fall off and chipped . My husband used Gorilla glue and it did the job. Do not lift it by the bowl after gluing .

Are you using a mix master or kitchen Aid stand or bowl lift mixer? My ravioli attachment fits perfectly into my kitchen aid.

Hi,My bowls did not break, but if you are serious about making ice cream, go with a different ice cream maker. The ice cream sticks to the bowls too much, and the cover doesn't stay on the maker.

I have not encountered that as yet, I only found it difficult to use the storage container that attaches to the bottom of the mixer. sorry

I had the same problem. What I do now..fill the blue bowl (I know, obvious) then place it somewhere firm, like on the counter. Put the bottom and tighten it just till it makes contact, do not over tighten, I use one finger to screw it on. Then press down around the edges of the bottom piece firmly so it slides on and then tighten the rest of the way. But again, do not over tighten, turn just till it makes contact. Hold it over the sink to be sure it does not leak. It will come off almost as easily. Had mine for almost 2 years now and no problems.

I also have had only stainless steel bowls for my KitchenAid mixer. However, both of the bowls screw into the base of the mixer and if screwed in properly, remain locked in regardless of what I am mixing. I did, however, have to replace the metal plate on the base of the mixer recently because the threads had worn down and the bowls kept unscrewing. A new metal plate cost only about $8 or $9 and took about a minute to replace using a screwdriver. So, I would first check that your bowl is properly screwed down, and then check the condition of the threads on the base plate.

Make sure your bowl is locked into place. Not sure what else could be the problem. (?Using the correct attachment.)

With the previous version of this I had that same problem. I just put a good-sized piece of clear packing tape on the underside to hold the bowl against the feeder. Problem solved. :)

I have no idea what you are asking... Do you have this bowl in your cart and want to remove it? If so go to your Amazon cart and click "remove". Otherwise the bowl itself is its own bowl. So if you don't want to use it, you have to pick it up and put down another bowl. Sorry if that's not the answer you're looking for but your question was pretty vague.

To be honest I haven't even noticed. I have always balanced my mixer on the bowl edge so any of the mixture on the beaters will fall back into the bowl. I love this mixer - great power, convenient storage, and a good weight. Definitely recommend!

when looking at the holes for the beaters on the mixer, the right side has a diagram showing that the male beater (the one with an extra "ring" near the base of the beater) goes on the right side. The one with no "ring" goes on the left side. Also, push firmly until you hear a "click". that should do the trick. If you mix them up, then they will slide right out. Also, dont push the top button near the on switch...that pops out the beaters when done. hope that helps!!!

How many quarts is the bowl,and if you measure the bowl opening and depth they should have one that works. Is your mixer a tilt or lift style? if it is a lift style remember that the height is adjustable so the the sideswipe doesn't rub on the bottom to hard resulting in beater failure

I have my mixer just sitting on the shelf. It will sometimes move a little when I raise the self up and put it down, but not enough to matter. I LOVE my shelf and I use it frequently.
