STEAM HAZARD
on January 10, 2024
Posted by: LilJo3
from Pennsylvania
I didn't have too many problems with the bread bowl itself, with the exception of the last 10 minutes of baking when it says to take off the bowl to brown the bread. The steam came out at 450 degrees and badly burned three of my fingers. There definitely should be warnings about that hazard. I will not use it again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A Nice Bowl and Baker Set
on January 1, 2024
Posted by: Sharon1008
My son ga e me this bowl as a gift. I like the aspect of mixing and proofing in the same bowl. It is easy and quick. I can warm the bowl by letting g it stand with warm water in it , and it holds warmth well. For those who are complaining that their loaf stuck when using it for baking, I am sure that they were using their own recipe, and trying to make too large a loaf. The Kitchen Aid recipes only use about 270g flour, and many recipe use 500 or more. This is not a large vessel, and you can’t exceed its capacity and expect good results. It does a good job baking the quantities it was designed for. I enjoy this bowl and lid a great deal!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not for a 5 qt crank-lift mixer.
on December 30, 2023
Posted by: ChefSandy
Clever idea and I would buy one in a heart beat, BUT this 5 qt bowl won't fit on a lift head 5 qt mixer. The 5 qt mixer for this has to be a tilt-head.

Doesn't work with Professional
on December 26, 2023
Posted by: wildyaker
I was given this because I had a KitchenAid Professional 5. Professional meaning, it should be able to do everything the basic tilt mixers do. Nope. It does less than the tilt head mixers. I wish I never bought the professional. It is so limited and this bowl doesn't work with it. Deceptive marketing in my opinion.

I just received this bread bowl. I just realized it was for the tilt head mixing bowl. I have two lift mixers. But. To be honest, You have to wash it out before you can use it for baking anyway. It will still make a good loaf of bread if baked in it so I'm Keeping it and using it just for the baking process.

Not available for people who care about bread

The fact that they don't make this compatible with the bowl lift model is insane, they need to fix this asap
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Caution needed
on June 10, 2023
Posted by: DKK*
from California
The 4 stars is because of the risk of severe steam burns. I am not a careless person, but when I took the lid off to brown the bread I got 3rd degree burns on 3 fingers from the steam that escaped as soon as you started to lift the bowl. 5 days later I still have huge blisters. The bread actually had a light golden crust at that point so taking the lid off might not be necessary.
5 stars for the function of the bowl and lid, While I will miss the wooden bowl for rising and this bowl needs to be cleaned between steps, overall it is a great product. ( read instructions completely, not a one step bowl) It does not make a huge loaf so if you have a large family this isn't practical. The recipe that comes with it makes a nice tender loaf.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Need warning about hot steam escaping!
on February 1, 2023
Posted by: Jennie L
from NY NY
while the directions say to use a hot mitt when lifting bowl, it should also state why --- that hot steam will come out quickly. My husband got very bad second degree burns on his hand using an extra large potholder. The bread did come out great but not sure if its worth the risk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
