Do the Medium lids have the center depression? So that when the lid is affixed to the bowl, the head of the mixer can still be lowered? The photo of the large lids appear to clearly show a depression, whereas the medium it is difficult to tell in the...

I have a set of two lids I bought a few years ago for my kitchen aid k45 and they both have depressions in the center. According to the description, I guess I have medium lids.

I ordered these lids for my 4.5 qt, and they fit nice and snug! Also the little dip in the lid allows the mixer to be down and locked when not in use, and all the attachments fit nicely into the bowl. My husband bought universal lids that don't fit at all, so I'd stick with these lids and trust that they will satisfy your needs. I love the lid! Hope this helps.

The lid getting sucked into the bowl has never happened to me. There is a vent at the top of the lid. I pop it open every time I put the steamer into the microwave in order to equalize the pressure inside the steamer.

My guess is that the cup is for the part of the mixer head that holds the blade to nestle down into, so the mixer head can sit level. The bottom is closed, so that the lid closes off the bowl.

I've not seen any offered. Most likely you cannot find any made specifically for the bowls. You could likely get the size of the opening and then get the lids separately from a different vender. The bowls are beautiful and work well as serving bowls. But they are too small for most of my kitchen mixing use. Only the largest of the three has practical mixing use.

It isn't the lid. I can't attach the cutter to the can. I try countless times and sometimes I give up. It is top heavy, as well. It looks good and I like the red one, but who cares if it doesn't work. It does a good job ripping off the label on the cans. :)

It's advisable when mixing dry items to keep them from flying out, especially at high speed. Once the mixing is well underway, the lid can come off (but why?)

Yes. It's true. The tank is much thinner then others,therefore making the bowl length smaller.

I vote the tilt head. I have had mine for many years and have used the fixed head model at others' houses and was frankly surprised how little I liked it. I found placing the bowl very difficult on the fixed model and I also don't like having to remove the mixer element to remove the bowl and get access to the bowl for scraping.

These bowls curve down a bit in the center. The largest bowl is 6" at its low point, 6 3/16" at its spout, 6 1/2" at its handle. Medium bowl is 5" at its low point, 5 5/16" at its spout and handle. Smallest bowl is 4 1/4 at its lowest point, 4 3/8" at its spout, 4 5/8" at it handle. The smallest bowl is 8 1/4 from spout to handle across the top and 6 1/2" across the top from curved side to curved side.

Our experience is that the lids do stay on when needed. However, the lids are not heavy enough to allow stacking bowls on top of each other.

The lids and rings come in either "regular" or "wide" sizes. The the amount that the jar can hold is not a factor.

The lids I had did, guessing since I received this question I must have bought the medium. But, they did no fit well, they would slip off, so I returned them. Also, the indent interfered with stuff in the bowl, so the bowl could not be full with the lid on. Bought instead some Silikomart Coverflex Reusable Silicone Food Covers, X-Large, 8.3-Inch - and they work great.

The largest is okay for this when using a hand mixer. When I am mixing by hand, the big one is good and the medium is acceptable.

I also have several of these containers ... all different sizes and I use them for dog treats. So they are opened at least once daily and I've had noproblem with the lids. I did have a problem with one of the lids not "seating" right after using it for awhile. The lid was fine but the containeritself had a small crack in it probably from me forcing the lid. I would recommend these ..

All the bowls nest together into the largest bowl. The largest lid can be placed on the largest bowl and the remaining unused lids placed within the top well of the largest bowl. They are located together very neatly. The largest lid also has metal graters that can be placed in the cutout of the largest bowl, a unique feature. When not using the grater, a matching circle insert is provided. It forms a tight seal. The sides of the interior has 4 measurement indicators, cups, liters, quarts, and oz. Hope this helps.Kat Lady

The lid only fits the medium dish. The larger dish is longer and shallower & great for lasagna& other dishes that need open baking for crisp top layers.
