MITCHENIFY Spring and Washer Kit for Kitchenaid Mixer, Replacement Parts

I purchased a Kitchenaid Pro 600 mixer from Facebook Marketplace that was missing a few things, including, this model was missing the spring and washer, which Kitchenaid removed. In refurbishing this unit, I decided that I wanted to have the spring and washer as I do on my smaller mixer. I purchased the spring and washer set. It was easy to install and has been holding my attachments firmly so they don't move around as I use the mixer.

This is an inexpensive upgrade that makes a noticeable difference. It is easy to install, less than 2 minutes and it improves the fitment of the mixer attachments on the mixer attachment shaft. The attachments no longer have up and down slop and the spring keeps the attachments in the proper position. If there are dense clumps at the bottom of the mixing bowl, the mixing attachments would rid up the shaft the 3/16" or so of play and not incorporate the ingredients well. We would have to scrape the bottom of the bowl to bring the clumps up to the top and then start mixing again. Now the attachments stay down and do not rid up and down the shaft, providing a more consistent mix without having to stop the mixer, lift the head, scrape the bowl, lower the head and start mixing again. This has been a great addition to our mixer and I wish we would have know about adding the spring to the attachment shaft years ago.

Easy to put on and fits perfectly. Doesn’t let my mixer bounce the way it was uncontrollably before. Works great for my mixer!

The other ones have these, the new ones are re-engineered and don’t use them. Be cautious that the parts don’t fall off while using it’ll end up in your food.

I got a lift, 7qt kitchen aid for Christmas, but noticed it doesn't have a spring, and the attachments seems like they'd come off easily. So we bought this, and it does seem to give the attachments a better grip, HOWEVER, my Pastry paddle and double sided silicone paddle really has to be lifed up, in order to attach to the mixture. Hopefully, that won't cause the mixture any damage.

Fit perfectly, just what I needed. Easy to install

Worked great. Fixed problem. Mine turned up missing. Fixed my problem

All good with this purchase
