Metal KitchenAid attachment hangers

[Mosca]

I needed some place to put these things, other than just storing them in the bowl. (Which works, of course, but then the unused ones sit on the counter until the job is done.) Looking on Amazon, there are lots of options. The cheapest ones are plastic, and while lots of folks say they like them, lots of folks say they don’t, and TrustPilot says not to believe the good scores.

These metal hooks are great. The hooks are welded to the mounting strip, and the mounting strip has holes where each hook is, plus both two sided tape and screws. Use the two sided tape to attach to metal or stone; for wood, use the two sided tape to position the strip, then use the screws.

There are a couple similar hangers that cost $5 less! Those have a metal strip, but plastic hooks, that folks complain will break off. Spend the extra $5 and get the quality piece.

Mounting advice #1: make sure they are far enough from the wall that the attachments fit! Mounting advice #2: mount the pins facing forward, it’s easier to get the attachments onto the hooks when you can see where to line them up.

Okay, I actually think I want this. My use case would be to mount it on the side of a cabinet rather than underneath. Hmm....

I had no idea attachment hangers for KitchenAid was this much of a thing! Awesome find!

They should work mounted sideways. Another tip: get some little springs, and a lock washer. Thread the spring over the nub. Then pry the lock washer apart, work it over the nub, and close it up. That will spring load the attachments so they should stand tall.

Here are a couple photos of the process, on a mixer, to give you all you need to know.
