Can I buy a 6 qt bowl to use on occasion with this machine?

No . . .even if you could get the six quart bowl to fit between the arms, the larger size would mean the beater, whip and hook would not fit inside the bowl properly. However, there is a six quart KA mixer available

According to the old Kitchen Aid forums, the 6qt bowl from the 600 pro should fit. This was from several years ago. The model numbers are still the same so it should still apply unless they made some changes and kept the model numbers the same. To make sure, just go to a store that sells both and swap the bowls. As far as I know the 6qt is just a little taller then the 5qt and are basically the same below the mounting points so the beater still work correctly.

This is the 2.5 qt bowl. You can price it elsewhere but I was in need as this was my go to bowl for over 20 years and I had just broken it.

NO ! This 7 quart bowl is huge as are the attachements - they are NOT interchangeable with previous smaller models.

I was told all but the flat beater was the same for the 5 qt Artisan and the 4.5 qt Ultra Power. Since the bowls will work from one to the other as well, I have never tried this but was told by Kitchen Aid rep, I suspect the flat beater would work as well.

Yes, there is a 3 qt. mixing bowl that fits this mixer. It is XN3CW. There is also a 5 qt. bowl that fits this mixer too. I called the service number for KitchenAid because I was curious to find the answer to this as I own the same mixer. It retails for $69 and I believe you can purchase it from them directly if you can't find it in anywhere. I'm glad to know it is available and I am going to purchase one too! Glad you asked the question! 3 qt. | Bowl & Combi Whip Base model:KN3CW | MSRP: $69.99* As you can see it also INCLUDES a combo whip that works with this bowl. You can find it on KitchenAid's web site. The following link brings you to the web page. You will need to copy it. Also, they make you register with their site if you are not already registered with them. You can purchase the bowl & wisk combo directly from them. http://www.kitchenaid.com/product/KN3CW.uts#.UV3HS4sUhwc.email

No I would not suggest getting this. It was inexpensive for a reason. It is not heavy duty and you still have to turn the bowl yourself. I would spend a bit more money and get one with a bowl that turns. That is what I thought I was getting.

No. This pouring spout is made for the 5 qt. bowl. Look for one specifically for a 6 qt. bowl.

This one is for the 6-Qt. Bowl lift (which I have), but I got a 5-Qt. bowl and use it in that, too. All you have to do is change the adjustment screw (it says how to do it in the owners manual), so maybe you could make it work if you can't find the smaller one.

unfortunately no. Kitchenaide said that mixer is out of production in favor of the larger model and therefore to not make a paddle for the 5 qt model.Yea - I am disappointed too!

My mixer came with a 4.5 qt.. I wanted a 5 qt and I switch out bowls with no problem.

I broke a bowl too. You can't order a replacement, as far as I know. I looked and looked, but I ended up ordering another whole set,

I was investigating the same thing when I bought mine. As far as I know there are only two sizes, 2 qt. and a smaller qt. size. My mom has the smaller version and you can barely squeeze a decent serving for three people out of that one. My advice is get a 2 qt. machine. It's better built, the bowls are bigger, and thicker walled, and you can always make less. My Unit is the STAINLESS STEEL 2 qt. model number CIM-60PC, I don't know what the black model number is for the same size? You might try going on cuisinart.com and emailing them that question. I remember being confused about the lack of info on amazon when I bought this one, but I was after the stainless steel model. I was investigating the same thing when I bought mine.

Get a 6 qt you can less in a smaller unit but you cannot cook more in a smaller one

most likely not, but the price is equal to other sets where you only get 4 bowls, and not the server, besides, if you break the server bowl, you'll have a replacement..;-)
