Wire Whip
on October 12, 2019
Posted by: Foodlove
Gender:Female
I'm so glad that you brought back the better quality wire whip and its stainless steel at the hub. I too was so disappointed with the last replacement part that I had with all the gray substance coming off on my hands. I've had my stand up mixer for 35 years and always loved it. Please don't cheapen your quality. I'm able to put in dishwasher also and no problems.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a Great Product
on April 14, 2021
Posted by: Adeg
Used whisk 6-7 times. After washing my whisk, it felt chalky, and had a grayish powder coming off of it. Had to throw it away because it didn’t look food safe.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible product
on March 11, 2024
Posted by: kkorbey
from Westford, MA
Terrible - just as everyone says - gray oil-type residue on hands when you touch the top. I was told its because I put it in the dishwasher? Like who would make a baking product that can't go in the dishwasher?! A ridiculous issue that they clearly know about but refuse to find a solution for the most expensive mixer on the market. I'd give it zero stars if I could.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Wire Whip broke after 2 years- not under warranty
on March 16, 2018

I love my kitchen aide mixer. I also have had no issues with the Wire Whip, which i use quite often, until one of the spokes broke :( I never had a problem w/ residual or flaking of the metal because i would hand wash immediately after every use. But unfortunately there is nothing you can do with a broken wire. The warranty is only good for a year so i guess i'll have to replace on my own. Disappointed in that. Use it for baking all the time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great but wire whisk?
on April 13, 2020
Posted by: Sandystwin
from Florida
This mixer is wonderful but if you use the wire whisk that comes with it, it turns everything grayish black, including your fingers and your recipe. I find it hard to believe that Kitchenaid would provide such a poor quality whisk and thenput one out there for extra cash that is better quality. Bummer!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works great if you read the cleaning instructions!

Many reviewers have complained of gray residue or flaking when they washed this attachment in the dishwasher. The instructions clearly state that you should NOT wash the attachments or bowl in the dishwasher! The gray in egg whites happens if you whip them too long--which can happen with the excellent speed at which a Kitchenaid stand mixer can go! Use a stabilizer (cream of tartar), check frequently to see if the whites are whipped enough without over-whipping--and you won't have the problem! I've been baking for over 50 years, and this is the best stand mixer with a whisk I've ever used.
I would recommend this to a friend!

HORRIBLE black residue on fingers..
on December 30, 2017

from Hilton Head Island, SC, United States
Gender:Female
Based upon the other negative reviews I've read I must have, in years past, put my original wire whip in the dishwasher as I took it out to use it this month and the gray/black residue was all over my fingers. I ordered a new one and when it arrived I found that even IT (never used) was smearing my fingers and a damp paper towel with gray/black matter. So. What do I do now? Do I keep the new one that has already started smearing or return it and use my hand mixer when I need to whip egg whites??? It seems ridiculous that I can't use my high end Kitchenaid Stand Mixer because of their inability (or lack of interest) in getting this wire whip right for ALL of us!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

FANTASTIC!! If egg whites become gray = overbeaten
on January 8, 2018

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS WHIP!!! Julia Child references the greyness result in her book "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" regarding egg whites and other baking batters containing eggs that include the whites. GREY RESULT = over beaten!!!!! Which, considering the speed of the mixer is EXTREMELY EASY TO DO!!! I suggest to all that are feeling that this attachment is to blame for their baking disappointments to try the following before you put Kitchenaid and, MOST IMPORTANTLY - YOURSELF through a lot of headache for absolutely no reason. Those reviewers who've gotten replacements will experience the same exact outcome.
1.) When beating egg whites in a stand mixer (especially if your recipe calls for hand whisking) YOU MUST add a pinch of Cream of Tartar - a powdered spice sold everywhere - to stabilize the egg whites prior to mixing!!!!
2.) Due to the lightning-fast speed of the mixture YOU MUST STOP IT FREQUENTLY to check their consistency!!! If you do not, the whites will become grey in color and grainy, - reference Julia Child. She explains this in GREAT DETAIL in her PHENOMENAL BOOK, Mastering the Art of French Cooking. She devotes an entire chapter to eggs and another to equipment and the most engenius part is that she explains in GREAT AND GRAPHIC detail what happens if you underbeat, overbeat, don't add a stabilizer and another EXTREMELY IMPORTANT aspect - when to add the sugar or salt WHICH - BELIEVE IT OR NOT - IS ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL, detailing the undesirable results that will happen if you do not add these ingredients at precisely the right time. What I have discovered about baking, compared to regular cooking, IT IS AN EXTREMELY PRECISE ENDEAVOR. EACH AND EVERY PROBLEM LISTED HERE IN THE BAD REVIEWS IS ADDRESSED ABSOLUTELY as a problem/undesirable outcome of not being PRECISE - hardly the fault of the person attempting the creation as 99.9% of the recipes out there DO NOT WARN YOU ABOUT THIS STUFF.
3.) Go out and get yourself the aforementioned book by Julia Child. I have been cooking my whole life (I'm now 49) and reading this book has taught me SO MANY THINGS I didn't know myself. The book is a MASTERPIECE and is unlike any other book - it is a TEACHING BOOK - NOT JUST A COLLECTION of recipes.
I am not a publisher, book seller and have no interest other than my sincere interest in helping others. I bought my stand mixer because although I considered myself a great cook, I had little experience baking, was told of the precision necessity and was a little nervous. NO NEED IF YOU BUY THIS BOOK. I am a Customer Service Manager and if I were in charge of the Kitchen Aid call center, I'd have a few copies of this book handy for my reps. EVERY SINGLE EXAMPLE listed here is written in the book. THESE WERE NOT APPLIANCE OR ATTACHMENT FAILURES - the failures listed here were preventable if the persons were following a recipe that FAILED THEM!!! Every last one!! LADIES, ARM YOURSELVES WITH JULIA'S BOOK, She revised it when the stand mixer came out and she listed EVERY SINGLE FAILURE she had IN AMAZING DETAIL while attempting & revising the recipes in it. YOU'LL NEVER HAVE THE PROBLEMS LISTED HERE AGAIN!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
