My wife has a KitchenAid Professional 600 watt stand mixer.
I started giving her poor performance and making a clunking sound, so
I opened it up.

For such a beefy machine, the transmission housing is plastic! It's
all cracked to hell. And unfortunately, the worm gear is stripped.

I found the parts at Sears: $13 for the housing, but $30 for the gear.
I hate to spend $50 with shipping to get another plastic housing.
Anyone know of a cheaper source?

I know, but the prices vary wildly. That's why I was wondering if
some of you who are in the know when it comes to appliance parts has a
favorite place to buy from.

Did you try KitchenAid? I needed the metal plate that the mixing bowl
attaches to, and it was reasonable and came quickly. I also used them
for the wire beater, and same results. It has been awhile though.

I just sent them an email through their website. I'm going to put the
mixer back together and wait to hear from them before I spend $50 for
the parts.
