I purchased both this Red Spoon Spatula and the White Spoon. Neither have dis-colored, faded, warped or melt. This is a very versital spatula. I bought the spatulas for the handle. The flexible rubber fins on the steel handle create a very comfortable feel and will NOT transport heat up the handle. The oversized grips create a very "ergonomic" feel and fits my hands without having to tightly grip the handle.

The spoon head is very flexible and yet sturdy. It can be used to stir the stiffist pancake mix or thickest chili and yet still clean the side of the bowl smooth. It can also go from normal room temperatures to stirring the soup, sauce or chili without fear of the blade melting or leaving "that plastic taste" in the pot.

A great product with flexible uses and a staple in my kitchen.

I bought one of these and a regular red Oxo spatula, and I've found that I really don't need any others. I think I would reccommend the red over the white, just because you don't need to put any thought into which one to grab for the spaghetti sauce. I've left these in a hot pot of alfredo sauce for half an hour (OOps!) and it came out completely unscathed. Also love that nice grippy handle. Buy one regular red and one spoon shaped red Oxo spatula, and you won't need to buy any others!

I purchased a few of these for myself and friends. From the day I got my spoon spatula it was my favorite kitchen tool, especially since I could use it when making sauces or frying onions and veggies. One day when making a non-meat tomato sauce the handle simply broke off leaving the handle in my hand and the spatula in the pot. I wrote to OXO about this twice in the last 2 months with no reply and this is most frustrating to me. Anyway, I am now using a KitchenAid product which feels much more sturdy and KitchenAid responds to e-mails IMMEDIATELY.

Wow, another reviewer hit the nail on the head for me. I like this spoon, in theory. I like that it's red, because despite other claims, I've found that tomato sauce WILL stain my white and clear ones.

But, like they said. I never want to use it, because the shaft is so damn flimsy. That plus the handle is almost TOO thick, and the combination of the two I find myself holding it by the shaft. I think I prefer thinner instruments, since I've been using these cheapo spoons I got at the supermarket rather than all my ergonomic stuff (oxo, kitchenaid..)

Despite that, I would probably love it 100% if the shaft was totally rigid. The spoon part is flexible enough to make up for total ridgity in the shaft. (no snickering!)

We liked our first one so much, we got another! Very good for scraping and mixing, and does not flex and frustrate like some other types of spatulas.

This spoon spatula is the first utensil I reach for when I'm cooking--no matter what I'm cooking. I have this in red and white. I actually think the white has become a little stained, the red hasn't. I have had no problem with the handle bending or breaking, and I like the fact that it doesn't move around in my hand. I can get around the entire bowl in one stroke. It really stays with the form of the bowl or pan.

When they tell you that this spatula doesn't stain - it's the truth. I love this product.

I like the fact that the spoon doesn't stain that is great, but I never want to use it because the shaft is so flimsy. So I recommend you buy it if you are only going to use for thin sauces. If you need a multi use spoon look somewhere else until they add a backbone to this one.

It is very comfortable in my hand and does not stain from red sauces. I like it very much

I got this for my wife for her Birthday and she loves it. No more staining other spatula's or spoons.
