Know before you buy
This 4-quart bowl is specifically designed for the Breville BEM-800XL stand mixer. It is not guaranteed to fit other Breville models, so please verify your mixer's model number before purchasing.
Yes, the stainless steel construction is food-safe and durable enough for refrigerator storage. However, please note that this bowl does not come with a dedicated lid.
This bowl is slightly smaller in capacity, which makes it ideal for smaller batches or secondary tasks like whipping egg whites or cream while your main bowl is occupied. Its primary advantage is that it nests inside the larger 5-quart bowl to save cabinet space.
The bowl is made from high-quality, durable stainless steel that is resistant to staining and odors. While it is dishwasher safe, using non-abrasive sponges will help maintain the polished finish over time.
The handles are designed for secure transport and pouring, but they are not intended for use in the oven or on a stovetop. They are made of the same durable material as the bowl and are safe to handle at room temperature or when working with cold ingredients.
