Product Description

Amazon.com Review

With its sharp stainless-steel tines and exceedingly gripable handle, the cooking fork by Oxo is one of the most versatile kitchen tools you'll stock your kitchen with. It's the utensil of choice for turning, piercing, stirring, separating, and whisking on the stovetop, in the oven, or at the barbecue pit. Its neck is compact, making it easier to handle with pots on the stove. And it's got an oversize handle opening for hanging storage. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

3.0 out of 5 stars The grip that bends, September 11, 2002

This review is from: OXO Good Grips Cooking Fork (Kitchen)

I, too, was on the search for a 3-tined fork and was initially delighted when I found this one. My mother's antique cooking forks being the standard, however, I was disappointed in the OXO fork's tines. While the tool is the right length, the soft grip a plus, and the tines reasonably thin (though not thin enough to meet the standard), if your work requires a firm grip, the tines will likely bend. They just can't handle any weight or force. If you don't mind bending the tines back into shape on occasion, or if your expected use is lightweight, this fork will do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fork for cooking, June 19, 2002

This is a great fork for turning chicken or vegetables when you're cooking them. It's sharp and has an easy to hold handle. The handle is not real long so it's easy to use for simple tasks.

MEANWHILE, MOM MADE DO WITH THE NEW TWO-TINE FORKS AND THEY BIT THE DUST WITH REGULARITY. ONE DAY, WHILST I WAS WHILING AWAY THE HOURS IN AMAZON.COM, I CHECKED MY NEWEST FAVORITE TAB, KITCHEN AND WAS ASTONISHED TO FIND THE QUEST....THE GRAIL....THE THREE-TINED FORK. NO TIME PASSED BEFORE IT WAS IN MY MOM'S HANDS AND YOU COULD HEAR THE FIBER OPTICS HUM WITH HER GLEE WHEN SHE EMAILED HER THANKS TO ME. THANK YOU AMAZON!
