1 out of 5 stars Not the right hook...   December 6, 2007

I ordered this hook quite some time ago... and got the wrong one. Even though it's advertised as a "powerknead" hook and the picture is of the spiral hook, the part number, and in fact the hook you will receive, is the standard C-shaped hook. The difference in part number is KN256BDH (C-shaped hook - the part number in the description here) vs KNS256BDH (spiral hook - the part displayed in the picture, but not the part number in the description) - THE "S" IS ESSENTIAL or you will get the wrong one. DON'T order this one assuming you will get the spiral hook. I tried to get them to exchange it numerous times - the return shipping label was always "on it's way" - finally I gave up and I'm stuck with a hook I don't want and already have one of (my machine came with a C hook, but I find the spiral hook works much better) - I'll just have to try get rid of it elsewhere I suppose...

If you order from this page, you will NOT get the spiral kneader, KNS256BDH, that's pictured here.


5 out of 5 stars Great addition   January 11, 2007

The spiral dough hook is swell. Works much better than the "C"-shaped hook that comes with the mixer. My one caution... sometimes buying the spiral hook can be frustrating as what differentiates the spiral hook's part number from the normal hook's part number is an 'S' in the part number. I was twice sent the wrong part! (It was correctly packaged and labled - they just kept pulling the wrong item.) Once I got the right part I was delighted with the way it handles dough. It's much less likely to allow the dough to climb the hook as it's being worked - the spiral keeps pushing the dough back down. Nice. Also this design handles stiff doughs better than the "C" hook. Seems to 'knead' it as opposed to 'bang' it. Nice addition if you're into bread.
