Hey all! First post. I recently got a used Hobart N50 off of eBay. It works great, except for the weird fact that the bottom of the beater is almost an inch away from the bottom of the bowl even when fully raised and adjusted. Looking at pictures, I've realized that the bowl I got with my N50 has an extra set of tabs on the side that don't appear on other stock photos of the N50 and that the bowl is a little over 7.5" tall, whereas the specs at https://cdn2.webdamdb.com/md_omoyCmadiSD3.jpg.pdf?1541452945 show the standard bowl at 6+15/16" tall. Weird, huh?
In any case, now I'm looking for a replacement bowl. I see a lot of 5 qt bowls on eBay for older Kitchenaids that were made by Hobart, part number K5-A like this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hobart-KitchenAid-Stainless-Steel-5-Qt-Bowl-w-Handle-for-5-Quart-Mixer-EUC/292915741015?hash=item4433238157:g:W1YAAOSw…
Does anyone know if they would fit my N50?
Thanks for your help!
