Looser fitting than the bowl cover for my old 5 quart KitchenAid mixer, but KitchenAid says the bowl cover is intended to be a loose fit. They envision people covering bread dough as it's rising and the carbon dioxide from the yeast needs to escape. I'm not sure if it needs to be this loose to vent the CO2, but the fit isn't so loose that it would fall off the bowl if inverted. Almost, but not quite. It may be this loose because KitchenAid is not very good about standards. Apparently, different versions of their 6 quart mixers have slightly different sized bowls, based on the "almost but not quite" experience many people have buying replacement beaters and other accessories. I have the KP26M9XCCU mixer. I mostly use the bowl cover to keep dust off the beater, dough hook, and whisk that I store in the bowl, on the mixer, sitting on the counter.
This bowl cover should be standard equipment sold with every KitchenAid mixer. And why are they sold in packs of two? Is that some marketing trick to compel us to buy a spare $50 stainless bowl? :-)

A Perfect Shield!!!
Saw that someone else used this as shield and decided to try it for same reason. The 5Qt glass bowl that came with my Kitchen Aid mixer has a pouring spout and as such there is no flour guard or shield for this item that I could buy from manufacturer (I could be wrong if I am someone can correct me). I think they only make the shields or guards for bowls that do NOT have the pouring spout.When next I am baking and using my kitchenaid, I will send a video with the "home made" shield in action as I pour flour into the mixer while in use. Does and excellent job of keeping flour in bowl and not flying all over.I just cut off the centre piece of the cover and cut a triangular opening and VOILA! Perfect flour shield! Necessity truly is the mother of invention.
