Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This is one basting set that's built to last. Quality construction is evident on every piece, from the stainless-steel baster to the sturdy stem on the meat thermometer. The pointy little scrubber does a great job of degreasing the baster--you can pop it into the dishwasher for an extra rinse, though. The basting brush is wonderful, with a thick handle, lots of topnotch nylon bristles, and a stainless-steel band to keep them firmly anchored; hand wash this little trooper for longer use. The poultry lacers are thick and won't bend while you're tightening the laces. These quality tools improve flavor and increase the chef's enjoyment during those all-day roasting tasks. --Jill Lightner

When it's time to cook the turkey you'll need every one of the items in this comprehensive set. Especially handy is the baster cleaning brush to remove any accumulated greasy gunk.

2.0 out of 5 stars The turkey was good anyway, December 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Amco 5-Piece Roasting Tool Set (Kitchen)

I thought I'd save a little money by going this route, but I should have just spent a little more and gotten quality tools. The bulb, on the sturdy looking baster, split the second time I went to baste the turkey. I ended up using a long-handled ladel to baste the bird. Given that I no longer have a baster, the cleaning tool is obsolete. I had a terrible time trying to get that twine untied (recommend you don't try to untie the twine after preparing the turkey; clean, dry hands would have helped (sure, it seems obvious now)). The knot was so tight that I had to pick it apart with the poultry lacers. The thermometer and poultry lacers worked fine. I didn't use the brush.

The baster bulb cracked for me too on the second use. It is terrible quality. The brush was ok, and the thermometer was fine as well. The rest was useless. Overall, it's not a bad value if you buy it understanding that you will be getting only two functional pieces: The brush and thermometer. I'd still suggest KitchenAid products instead.
