How can I get the glass bowl to function on my 5-Quart Artisan mixer? It doesn't sit right and bottom is not locked in place. Thank you.

I am not sure. Mine twists right into place. you have to take the lid off first. Maybe yours is faulty?

Hi, I am sorry I don't have an answer for you. I also bought the 5 qt glass bowl and mine doesn't lock in either. I use for other purposes now. I don't recommend this product at all. I really like my KitchenAid mixer and use it just about every day. I wanted the glass bowl for my meringue and I couldn't get a refund either. I am sorry I couldn't help you.

The glass bowl should fit as the stainless bowl and a 1/4 turn to lock it in place. You might have the wrong size bowl

I'm sorry. I purchased this item as a gift for my sister so I cannot help you with an answer.

Set the bowl aside and look at the spot on the mixer where the bowl should sit. There is a ring held on by 3 screws. Remove those screws and rotate the ring, which will re-position the notches. Re-insert the screws.

Sounds like you don't have the grey plastic piece screwed onto the bottom. It comes with the bowl.

I put mine on the bottom and screw it in like I do my metal one. I don't even use my metal one anymore. Good luck. I hope it works for you.

My suggestion would be to make sure the ring that screws on & off on the bottom of the bowl is put on properly, maybe that's causing some sort of issue with attaching it to your mixer. I've never had a problem with attaching mine to the mixer, however it doesn't lock as tight as the metal bowl, however, once it's locked into the mixer I have no problem with it. I think if you were making bread or something that requires the highest speed you'd need to keep an eye on it so that it doesn't come unlocked though. I love mine, good luck hope you get the issue resolved and my suggestions help.

It does work with my 5-quart bowl. My mixer was out of the box when I bought it, and it came with a hook that was too big. This one fits.

The metal bracket closest to the bowl does NOT turn on mine. I was able to make it work on horizontal bars by putting a large metal washer behind that bracket and in front of the inside bars and then attached the other bracket piece and wing nut on the outside. Hope that helps!!

I'm not sure what model # mine is but I have the 5 quart glass bowl. Artisan mixer and it works well

The newer lid did not fit the original bowl configuration. I ordered the newer bowl then to fit the newer lid, hoping that the bowl would then fit the machine. It did. I tested the blade with the new lid and bowl. Viola! It worked. Good luck!

I have a 4.5 qt tilt-head Kitchen Aid stand mixer, and the pouring shield fits my bowl. It IS a bit tricky, though, in that you have to get it just right or it doesn't fit or stay in place all that well. Once you learn to make sure it's just-so, it works like a dream. Probably the best thing to do would be to measure the diameter of your bowl and compare the diameter of the pouring shield. I hope this helps.

Yes Alice, on December I bought the KitchenAid KSM150PS and I bought too the glass bowl and fit in perfectly. It's so heavy but very useful :)

My mixer has a 6.5 qt bowl and it fits that. This is not meant for the Artisan series bowls as they are much smaller. Check your bowl size

Does your mixer have a handle on the side to lift bowl for mixing? If so it will not fit.

U t seems like the problem is still exist. after I remove the plate for cleaning. it seems to be impossible to get it fit back in perfectly like it was. especiallt the bottom plate. I am quite disappointed with their craftmanship..

I strongly recommend that you call the manufacturer or a good vendor like the Chef's catalogue or Williams Sonoma. We had a very difficult time getting an answer on what fit our mixer, and finally just hoped for the best and got lucky. It shouldn't be so difficult! It is best determined by the size of the bowl you use, rather that the model number.

I bought this bowl for my ancient machine...it works perfectly but I agree with the other answer....you have to give the bowl a firm push to get it into place or the top won't lock in properly...not a problem at all but you have to be aware!

Contact Amazon right away so they can take the appropriate steps to correct this. Other than that, you can also contact the company that shipped the unit and maybe they will send you the part or replace the unit. Referring to the part "Bushing", it may be the locking part that locks the upper drum in place. There is no small bowl to put underneath. I empty the bowl when done and any uncrushed ice is discarded. Then use a paper towel under the crusher to soak up the drips. The only critism of this is that it is very loud. Other than that, it works like it should.

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.

Wow, I would never buy anything based on answers in this area . . .talk about misinformation! Hope you've not been inconvenienced by some of the responses.I had that same mixer . . .the bowl is narrow and this whisk is too big. It will fit the newer 5 qt bowls and 6 quart Lift Handle bowls but unfortunately, will not fit your mixer and I don't believe one was made for that mixer.

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

Unfortunately, I have never found one. Kitchenaid just came out with a glass bowl for their 6 quart lift-bowl mixer, but I haven't found anyone who can tell me if it will fit. Sorry!
