I bought this in November--by December it was already broken and useless. It's not like I was using it in a commercial setting! I made about four pies before the handle began to turn. The screws move, making it difficult and uncomforable to use. It's poor preformance is the reason I'm back on amazon, looking for a new one. Don't bother with this cheap thing!

The blender itself would be fine expcept the handle keep comeing apart every time I use it. The screws rotate with pressure and it comes apart when using.

Cooking is my hobby; while I don't get to really cook as often as I'd like, when I do I want to use the best ingredients and tools that I can afford on a grad student budget.
Pies are one of my specialties, and until this week I'd used the old two-knife method for cutting shortening and butter into the flour crust mixture. Having been asked to make all the pies for a massive Thanksgiving dinner, I decided to splurge and purchase this pastry blender. I had one in the past, but it was incredibly cheap; the thing got so bent up after two or three uses that it had to be chucked. I have not, however, been disappointed in this blender. I "christened" it with a triple batch of pie dough this morning, and was extremely pleased with the comfortable handle and the sharp blades. Five stars! I'd definitely buy it again, though I don't anticipate having to do so for quite some time.
