Speaking of KitchenAid mixers...

Does anyone have one of these "Side Swiper" attachments, and if so can you recommend yours? There seem to be two different ones. I hate scraping down the mixing bowl!!

I got the Side Swipe for Christmas. I've used it a few times, and so far I'm very happy with it. The only thing I don't like is how hard it is to scrape everything off the sides of the beater after I'm done. But I'm willing to put up with that so that I don't have to keep turning the mixer off and lowering the bowl to scrape the sides and bottom.
