5.0 out of 5 stars
Very versatile product, highly recommend, June 1, 2006
A friend of mine recommended these spatulas and I couldn't be more pleased. If you have ever owned the standard rubber spatulas with a wooden handle you will immediately recognize that a single piece design is a major improvement. No more spatula heads popping off their handles.
Because this item has a double head is twice as handy. I use it as both a both a bowl scraper and as a spatula. The smaller head works well for completely emptying a blender jar and/or food processor.
It is fabulous at loosening fish or eggs from pans. Whenever I am making risotto cakes, or crab cakes I always reach for this spatula to make certain the cakes release. I also use this spatula as a spoon for stirring polenta or risotto. Having the second smaller head makes a handy tasting spoon that doesn't contaminate the pot.
This spatula is also easy to clean. This spatula also does not stain. I used it to make marina and there was no resulting "orange" stain after washing.
I highly recommend this product.

Great Spatula; Huge Glitch, February 19, 2006
I read about these on Kevin Kelly's Cool Tools Site (kevinkelly.com) and I bought two for work. I work as a cook at a resort, and like them very much, but I had one break within a week. Moving a cream cheese mixture in a processor bowl, the spatula had been pushed down into the bowl, bending it's blade at a 90 degree angle. It broke at the top of the metal bar contained inside the handle.
I emailed Chef'n explaining what happened, and they quickly argeed to replace it. So if you do break one, don't throw it away. If you buy one, you may want to shy away from ultra-thick mixtures, and bending it at severe angles. It's still a Five Star piece of equipment for gravies, sauces, omelets and the like, but not for everything.

I loved it! Until it broke..., December 11, 2006
So sad,
I've had this tool for about 5 months, and I've been in love with it since day one. I think I've convinced about 10 friends to buy one too. Yesterday though, I was using it to push some sugar around as I was melting it for a flan, and the spat just snapped right at the point where the steel support begins. I've called chefn and left a message about replacing it... but given similar comments on Amazon, let the buyer beware. Great tool, but not as sturdy as it seems
*update*
Chefn was more than happy to replace the spat for me when I sent it in (natch, to my expense for outgoing shipping, but free for the return shipping) to them. They didn't require a receipt either. I still like the spat a lot, but am weary to use it for more strenuous purposes.
