We ordered a new replacement beater bar after searching online for the correct replacement. AppliancePartsPros had the correct beater bar and in stock. We purchased one and it came in a few days. It fit perfectly. Take care when ordering because there are two lengths for different mixers. One for the 4.5 & 5.0-quart mixer and one for the 6.0-quart pro mixer. Ours was the 4.5 & 5.0-quart mixer. The price was about what other suppliers were charging and with the others, we were not sure that they sold the correct replacement.
