Dust Cover for Ankarsrum

I recently bought an Ankarsrum mixer and wanted to find a cover that would fit over the entire unit. Ankarsrum doesn't make such a cover and I couldn't find any other company that did so. However, after searching through Amazon, I found a cover whose dimensions seemed right:

Amazon.com: HOMEST 2 Compartments Dust Cover (NO BOTTOM) for 8 Quart Instant Pot, Accessory Pockets for Utensils and Rcipes, Top Zipper Layer for Steamer Rack, Insulated Inner, Easy To Clean, Grey: Kitchen & Dining

This cover is designed for an 8 qt. Instant Pot, but it fits the Ankarsrum perfectly. To be clear, it fits the base and the stainless steel mixing bowl, but not also the plastic bowl.

 

Thought I'd post this in case anyone else is looking for a cover. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Yes, I received the cover yesterday. It fits the base and stainless steel bowl fine. The cover also has a pocket on top that holds the manual and recipe book.

The reason I asked was, I have a Berkel Commercial meat slicer and some other food processing equipment that I wanted covers for.  I found this place  https://www.coversandall.com/custom-size-and-shape-covers-rectangle-and-square.html they makes custom fit/sized covers, for what I found to be a reasonable price. 

Just an FYI

Can you share the dimensions you used? and did it cover with the plastic bowl as well?

I bought covers for my meat slicer, meat grinder and food dehydrator, they are all varying shapes and sizes. I think they can make covers for something as small as a toaster or as large as a car.

Thanks for the tip. I'll keep that site in mind for the future.

I just stumbled upon this site and post while searching online for a cover for my new Ankarsrum mixer. Thanks very much for taking the time to share! And to the other member who used coversandall.com for a cover, I’ve used them for a custom cover for a fire pit. Great quality products.

I am very happy with all of the covers they have made me.

I found a dust cover, that works for other stand mixers, which also covers the Ankarsrum, with the smaller plastic bowl and round white cover inside too:

I have the same dust cover for my KitchenAid bowl lift mixer as well. This cover is designed for larger stand mixers (6 to 8 qts.), which more than adequately protects the Ankarsrum. It also has pockets for paperwork storage and the like. The only accessories I couldn't store inside the mixer bowl are the large dough hook and the kneader.

I am very happy with it, and it's inexpensive too.

Side note: the cover I linked may or may not be in stock at Amazon, but any large (6 to 8 qt.) stand mixer dust cover should work.
