This scraper is great for bread dough. The slick silicone material doesn't stick at all, is very lightweight and I love how easy it is to clean as opposed to metal scrapers. Since my favorite bread shaping surface is a plastic mat a metal scraper is impractical, too.

The only reason this didn't quite make 5 stars is that the material is very easily nicked along the edges and I fear that, after awhile, accumulated nicking of the edge will reduce functionality, but at 5 dollars replacing the scraper even once yearly wouldn't be a big deal.

If you own the large pastry mat from siliconezone for making bread, then you can't use a standard metal scraper that will tear the silicone mat.

This is a great dough cutter and scraper.It is easy to hold, flexible enough to pick up chopped vegetables and to scrape the extras right in the trash. I think there are probably more uses to come up with.I would recommend it as a great extra gadget for anyone's kitchen. It cleans up nicely too...

I have been using this scraper for about 2 months. I purchased it so that I would not have to worry about the counter being nicked or scratched when making breads and rolls.

It works very well, easily cleanable and nonstick. It cuts through dough easily and cleans counters well.

My only concern is the durability of the product. I too have found that the edges are easily dented and nicked. Even when I received the product, the packaging had caused damage to the edge of the scraper. I would have returned it but I needed the scraper. I agree with other users that it is a good deal for the money. Just be careful when storing and using the scraper to prolong the life of the edges.

Love this product and was thrilled to find it available at Amazon. It's called a dough separator but I use it to scrape veggies off my wooden cutting board. It's become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets.

I have an old pastry/dough cutter which is metal and it is starting to rust and oxidize which makes me worry about using it. Some of the plastic ones don't cut cleanly and soft doughs stick to them. This one releases the dough and cuts cleanly. Plus I will never have to worry about oxidation again.

I bought the dough scraper in June 2009. It is already cracking along the seam of the scraper and the grip. I looked on the link to see what the return policy is and I have to pay to ship it back and there's a restocking fee? Not worth it for a $5.00 item...

This is an excellent product. It separates dough easily and is easy to clean. I'm very glad I bought it.

I bought this particular dough separator to break up the little chunks of hamburger as they were browning. You can use it on a non-stick pan. It is good for that, although a little short. To me, it is too thick to be an effective dough separator, but that is just me. For tasks like that I would prefer metal.

Use my formica countertop a lot for making bread and pasta dough. This product performs with no danger of scratching or cutting counter surface.
