Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisipro 3-Piece Silicone Spatula Set, BlueCustomer Review: Sturdiest flexible spatulas I've ever used Summary: 5 Stars
The handles are quite light for steel. They have a fantastic satin finish, so they're very smooth to the touch. There are no hard edges to dig in if you're stirring heavy batters for a while, which is particularly nice on my tendonitis. They also have small hanging hooks in case you want to hang them up and out of the way. The spatulas are also entirely dishwasher-safe, and we haven't noticed even a tiny bit of rust after running them through the dishwasher (isn't it disturbing how many supposedly dishwasher-safe things come out of the dishwasher with rust on them?).
The fact that the handles extend so far into the spatula heads is partially a plus--it's sturdy, and helps to reinforce the silicone. It's also a minus, however, as it negates some of the flexibility of the silicone heads that allows you to do things like perfectly scrape down the curve of a bowl. This isn't a real problem with the largest of the spatulas; its head is large enough that the handle ends up being mostly along one edge, so you just use the other edge. The smallest of the spatulas, however, really isn't very flexible. There are still plenty of things it's useful for, however; some jobs work better with a less flexible spatula.
The silicone of the heads is remarkably sturdy for being so flexible. I've noticed no discoloration from spicing, and the material seems unlikely to tear so far. It's also relatively "non-stick"--by which I mean that dust doesn't seem to collect on it as easily, and dough and batter don't seem to cling to it as much as they do to a spoon or different sort of spatula. We put the famed heat resistance (they're supposed to be heat resistant to 750 degrees F/400 C!) to the test by using them in a recipe that involved boiling water, steaming, and roasting at 450 F, and they looked the same after we were done as they did when we started.
I was surprised to find that the spatulas were far more efficient than spoons at mixing batters and doughs together, particularly when combined with Cuisipro's mixing bowls. The Irish soda bread rolls we made came together in just a few strokes, and when you're making that sort of dough it's imperative that you don't overmix.
Description of Cuisipro 3-Piece Silicone Spatula Set, BlueIdeal for stovetop cooking and nonstick cookware, the three silicone spatulas (11-, 11-1/2-, and 12-inch) in this set meet exacting 21st-century standards for both appearance and performance. Securely connected to oval, satin-finish, stainless-steel handles, the blue silicone heads are heat-resistant to 650 degrees F (345 degrees C) and are therefore perfect for using on the stovetop without danger of melting in hot sauces or by touching a burner. Because they're soft, they won't harm nonstick cookware, and because they're curved and flexible, they follow the contours of a bowl or pan. Moreover, they won't discolor or absorb odors, and they go safely into the dishwasher. For convenient storage, the tapered, comfortable handles have hanging loops. --Fred Brack
