Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SideSwipe for KitchenAid 5- and 4.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixers
Customer Review: Good but I like the Metro better
Summary: 4 Stars
This functions well, but I bought both this and the Metro and really like the Metro better for two reasons. First, the Metro seems to clean the side of the bowl better (not much difference, but enough that it is noticeable) and Second, the Metro is easier to clean off excess batter. The tabs on the sides of the SideSwipe are a great place for lots of dough to cling. I need to use a small spatula or spoon to get the batter stuck between the tabs. Maybe not a big deal to most, but read on for an explanation
I need to offer an explanation in that I have limited use of my fingers due to nerve damage and was looking for something that would eliminate the less than perfect design of the KA metal blade. The need to grab another spoon to clean out from between the tabs can sometimes be difficult.
When making cookies that call for bits (chips, raisins, etc.) the Metro blade okay. However, when mixing large amounts of bits and chunks, this SideSwipe is actually better than the Metro because the bits seem to have an escape through the tabs, but most everything, I prefer the Metro.
I use both, but if I had to buy just one it would be the Metro.
I have retired the original aluminum blade (pain to clean by hand anyway) and rely on these aftermarket pieces.
Description of SideSwipe for KitchenAid 5- and 4.5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixers
SideSwipe revolutionizes mixing and virtually eliminates the need to stop your mixer and scrape the bowl to get all your ingredients mixed in. The ORIGINAL spatula mixer blade delivers better results because of its unique alternating silicone fins. The ultra-flexible fins' bi-directional scraping provides a more thoroughly-combined, fluffier end result while maintaining a safe wattage draw. And it mixes your recipes faster, too! SideSwipe is perfect for mixing most everything you use your stand mixer for - cakes, frosting, cookies with chips and nuts, mashed potatoes, creamed butter and much more! Don't be fooled by recent competition that doesn't mix as well or get ingredients from the bottom of the bowl!
