Speed Control Lever KNOB BROKEN
Pulled the Knob off of the new Lever then pressed it on the old Lever. I had to order the whole lever because it was the part nearest the knob in the illustrated parts break-down. I RECOMMEND THAT THE KNOB BE ADDED TO THE ILLUSTRATED PARTS BREAK-DOWN.

The paint on the flat beater for my electric mixer was chipping
I inherited an electric mixture from my mother-in-law after she died in 2004. The mixer must have been from the 70s. I guess I could buy a new one but I think of her each time I use it and it is almost like I keep a piece of her alive. The paint on the flat beater was chipping and instead of potentially poisoning my family I knew I needed to either replace the mixer or get a new Flat Beater. I had no idea, with the mixer being so old that a replacement part would even exist but it did! I purchased the replacement flat-beater and installed it in two seconds. Now I can use my mixer with immeasurable sentimental value and not pose any health risks to my family!

Replacement of beaters
The Kitchenaide Artisan stand mixer was purchased as a floor model. The two white beaters had worn and chipped spots on them. I purchased two replacement beaters from Part Select. They arrived the next day in great shape. Have used the mixer several times since and it has worked wonderfully.

screw cap would not hold bowl when making dough
My kitchenaid mixer is at least 37 years old. Everything has worked fine after all these years except the screw cap was flimsy, still stainless steel, but not sturdy. So I tried to replace it , but was told it was too old and couldn't get the part. I contacted Part Select and found a screw cap from newer models fit perfectly and should outlast me and the mixer, it is a lot sturdier than original one. It also arrived in 2 days, which was fantastic. Thanks guys

needed a new beater since old one was chipping and had coating flaking off.
Looked up part replacement, ordered on line. Found part easily and waited anxiously for new part. I wanted to make cookies for the holiday season. Received part quickly, opened up packaging, put on mixer and I was back in business. Thanks so much for an easy fix. I also was pleasantly surprised at how cheap the replacement part was. Thank you, thank you for allowing me to get a new part with ease and continue to use my Kitchen Aid mixer.

1960s Kitchenaid K45 Mixer Screw Cap Stripped
My early '60's Kitchenaid K45 mixer screw cap/base plate would no longer hold the bowl, so I looked for another. This item, though not an exact replica of the original, fit and works great. The design is better by being more stout than the original. Pretty straightforward installation: remove three screws, take out old base plate, install new plate and screw down.
