KitchenAid KN2B6PEH Stainless Steel Mixing Bowl for 6-qt. 6-qt. Reviews By Customers

This bowl is AWESOME! It hold liquids and solids without any problems. It's just like the other bowl that came with the mixer! Really... who reviews a freaking bowl. It's a bowl. It has a hole at the top to put stuff in, and a solid bottom to keep things from falling out. If it were square, it'd be a box. I don't even know which bowl is the one that came with the mixer and which is the bowl that I'm reviewing now. Buy the bowl, m'kay? You'll be happy when you're making lots of batter and icing and you don't have to keep rinsing the one bowl. Bowls for everyone. Bowl, bowl, bowl... that word is weird now... bowl.

This bowl rusts! - Becky L. - Iowa
I recently purchased a KitchenAid 6 quart Pro mixer and this bowl came as a standard attachment. Although stainless steel, the bowl has a very shiny, almost chromed finish--unlike the bowl with my previous, smaller model KA mixer. The VERY FIRST TIME I put this bowl in the dishwasher (it specifically says "dishwasher safe" in the instruction manual) I was astonished to pull it out the next day to discover RUST all around the outside edge of the rolled upper lip/rim! The shiny finish appeared to have eroded just sitting overnight in the dishwasher, leaving multiple, ugly little rusty spots.

Well! I called customer service at KitchenAid (my mixer being only three weeks old, it was under warranty) and they had no explanation for how "stainless steel" could rust overnight, but they sent me a replacement. The bowl arrived quickly, I used it once, and then--taking no chances--it was washed by hand, and then up-ended on a dry kitchen towel, on the table, to finish drying overnight.

This morning, I picked up brand new bowl #2, and found even MORE RUSTY SPOTS than on the previous bowl! Virtually 1/4 of the shiny plating on the lip of this bowl has corroded away, leaving rust stains on the towel I wiped it with, and ugly black spots (after I rubbed away the rust) on the lip of the bowl.

I will be contacting KA again, but clearly there's some manufacturing flaw occurring in the plant in India where these bowls are manufactured.

Great bowl - Joyce Miller -
This is a good heavy duty bowl. I do a lot of baking so it is real handy to have an extra bowl.

Time saving addition - Bonnie Stearns -
My 600 series KA mixer came with a coupon for a free bowl, free shipping. It is identical to the ergo-handle bowl that came with the mixer. Sure saves time when involved in marathon baking. Using this mixer, its two bowls plus another smaller KA mixer, we turned out two wedding cakes (~200 servings) over two days. A real time saver.
