THis is a fantastic fish turner, and I have tried several. I am a professional chef and this turner is wide which is great for larger cuts of fish. I use this on saute pans and also to turn the fish on a grill. It is flexible enough to bend, but is by far not flimsy. Great choice!

I've always had trouble turning over fish such as cod, flounder, and halibut when sautéing, broiling, or on the grill. This OXO fish turner goes a long way in solving the problem of the fish breaking up into little pieces when turning. I've also used this for pancakes with great success. It is very flexible, cleans up easily and a big improvement over other spatulas I've used. As with other OXO products I have, this is a great addition to my kitchen tool collection.

There's a lot to like about this spatula--it's sharp, flexible, and just the right size, but the grip is not even slightly heat resistant. The first time you turn your back and leave it in the pan you'll melt the grip. As I multi-task in the kitchen, I often leave my spatula in the pan and so this otherwise great spatula now custom fits my hand. I'm going to replace it with something that has a composite handle it may not be as cushy in my hand, but I won't have the melted plastic attaching itself to the sides of my pan or molding itself to fit my hand. Just leaning the spatula against the pan with the handle touching the stove will make the handle soften and loosen on the handle.
Edit:
I've since bought the MIU spatula which is also sold on Amazon and its handle can take the heat and it's built better as well (solid piece of metal rather than the blade being spot welded to the handle) MIU Slotted Stainless Steel Flexible Turner, unfortunately it's about 2" shorter and I prefer the size of the Oxo. To the commenter who face-palms himself on a common way to use a kitchen tool, I've got dozens of other kitchen tools and this is the only one where the handle melts if you lean it against a pan or leave it in the pan as you attend to other chores. If you've got a place to the side of your stove to lay down your spatula and you'll never forget and leave it in the pan for even a few seconds or lean it against the pan then you won't need to worry about melting the handle and you should purchase and enjoy the spatula. On the other hand, if you expect more from your kitchen tools, you should look at something that is better designed to withstand normal kitchen use.
A second edit:
In February of 2011 I also purchased Tom Douglas by Pinzon Dexter-Russell Stainless-Steel Slotted Fish Turner which I like the best of the three that I bought. It is built in a similar manner to the MIU. It's a solid, sharp and flexible piece of steel, but it has wooden handles riveted so no worries about heat. I've donated the Good Grips turner--the handle would loosen and soften up in my hand just from using it in a hot pan and I found that as I got used to the shorter MIU and Dexter-Russel turners that I really didn't like the longer Good Grips one as it began to feel unwieldy. I do like Good Grips products: their salad spinner and vegetable peeler are great but this fish turner is a pass.

Nice for fish and other delicate food
This spatula works great for turning fish and other delicate food. The metal is thin and flexible and the surface is large. Does just what you would expect.

Gold standard
There is a reason you see television chefs using this fish turner and no other. It is the gold standard and after using it, I will never use anything else. Oxo did it again!

A Fine Turn
A fish turner is my turner of choice. Because of the long slits you are not turning over a lot of oil or liquid along with the food. Read more
