Amazon.com Product Description
Cut your mixing time by up to 50 percent with the New Metro Design BeaterBlade. There's no more troubling "scraping the bowl," because the BeaterBlade mixes the batter so thoroughly that it eliminates build-up on the blade and bowl. It's one of the most efficient kitchen tools you'll ever own. Engineered for use with top-brand electric stand mixers, such as those offered by KitchenAid, the BeaterBlade will work with any tilt-head mixer, no matter its size, age, or power level.
The high-quality blade includes flexible rubber wings down both sides, which simulates the action of a power spatula to continuously scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl, much like your car's windshield wiper blades. By continuously scraping the batter while beating, folding, and mixing the ingredients, the BeaterBlade not only speeds up the process by as much as 50 percent, but it also saves wear and tear on your mixer's motor by eliminating the need to turn the mixer off and on to scrape the bowl manually.
Made in the U.S.A., the BeaterBlade is perfect for cakes, cookies, frostings, quick breads, compound butters, meatloaf, pie fillings, mashed potatoes, gum paste and other tasty foods. It washes easily and safely on the top rack of your dishwasher; just place it upside down on the rung, and use a bottle brush to clean the inside of the neck. It measures 10 x 6 x 0.8 inches.
New Metro Design’s Beater Blade is an electric mixer attachment which thoroughly mixes batter, eliminating the need to stop and scrape the bowl manually. Engineered for use with top brand electric stand mixers, including most models offered by KitchenAid, Cuisinart, DeLonghi and Viking, the new Beater Blade beats, scrapes, folds and incorporates ingredients thoroughly for fool-proof baking. The new Beater Blade+ ingeniously improves on the functionality of standard V-shaped beaters offered with high-end stand mixers by crafting a high-quality, enhanced blade that includes a flexible rubber “wing” down the entire length of both sides of the blade. The durable, food-grade edging simulates the action of a powerful spatula to gently, yet thoroughly scrape the bowl clean. The wing-system design acts like a wiper blade that continuously scrapes sides and bottom of bowl while it mixes virtually eliminating hand-scraping and batter build-up on the blade. BeaterBlade’s state-of-the-art design continuously and automatically scrapes batters during mixing, which can speed up the process by as much as 50 percent. By eliminating the need to turn off and on the mixer to scrape the bowl, Beater Blade reduces wear of the motor of the mixer, as well. New Metro Design’s Beater Blade excels in a full range of mixing applications, including creaming butter, sugar and eggs to fluffy perfection, and preparing frostings and pastry creams quickly and easily. Model KA-TH fits all KitchenAid tilt head mixers regardless of the KitchenAid model numbers.

Customer Reviews

First, I'll start by saying we are two gourmet nuts in this household. My honey owns a food manufacturing company and between the two of us foodies, there is a whole heck of a lot of cooking going on. In fact, we bought our current house based on the size of the kitchen being able to fit all of our gadgets. We love food. We love to cook.
Okay, so that self-disclosure said, I read about these blades before they ever came out in one of my gourmet magazines. I found it interesting that Kitchenaid wasn't the one to come up with it and get the patent. It's brilliant! But only if it really works...
I love the Kitchenaid mixers and think they are among the best out there. They have just been improved, but, oddly not by Kitchenaid!
This speeds up your mixing time by half! The only thing I didn't like about my God-of-all-mixers was having to stop, lower the bowl, stir, and continue in order to get a perfectly mixed food product. Now, I put this blade in (which, unlike my other blade that came with my mixer, is also dishwasher safe mind you...another plus for hygeine and time management!) and add my ingredients and now I just walk away and work on the rest of my recipe.
And, I mean to tell you, it reaches every last crumb! This is some serious mixing!
I have used it on the hardest to stir ingredients...from bread dough to sugar cookie dough, to pasta mixtures to foccacia dough...this blade has seen some mixing!
Because you need a different blade for each model of beater, be sure to look at your serial number and matching up the info of what your size is etc on the Kitchenaid site before ordering if you need to. I wonder if this is what made some other blades snap--getting the wrong size? I say this because we cook all 3 meals and 2 snacks we eat each day and we use this thing constantly and it's bullet proof material :-) and we beat it up without any issues. but there are so many different blades you have to be careful to get the right one for your model.
Plus, it had the highest of ratings from my unbiased cooking mag reviews of it as it was coming out.
Personally, we'll never use the old beater blade again..so much so we tossed it in the trash the first time we used this one. It's a new era in mixing, Kitchenaiders! (and owners of other mixers that this fits) And, for us, a must have.
Negatives: I had to do a little research to ensure I got the right blade for my mixer. I wish they would list the mixer name in order to correctly order the right blade since Kithenaid makes so many different style mixers. In other words, If I could have read "fits the Kitchenaid professional model" I would have ordered the correct size first instead of first ordering the wrong one based upon quart size then having to return it after fully studying the serial model number and doing some research.
For me, that's the only negative. I think this blade ROCKS the KITCHEN!

To put it in simple terms this thing is amazing!
I used it the day it arrived due to my curiousity
and I was thrilled with it's performance. It mixed my
cake batter so well that I didn't have to even stir
once to incorporate the ingredients. It was just
wonderful!
