Soft plastic = Gear Slip

Do not buy if you actually use a mixer. This gear is made of a much softer plastic than the original Kitchenaid mixer gear. This means that right after switching you'll be thinking "Oh how quieter and smoother this new mechanism is", but you'll soon find that if you subject it to a significant load (e.g. kneading bread dough) , it will slip because the gear material is so soft. If you're just mixing cake batter that might be fine, but for any serious cook, don't waste your money on harder plastic OEM hardware. You will not regret it. The video shows the bread dough *after* changing gears, inspecting all other gears (metal) and changing the NSF grease. I'll have to do all of this again once the OEM equipment arrives. DO NOT BUY!
