I purchased this and liked it so much that I have decided to give another set as a wedding gift. These are well made and look very nice. Exactly the kind of thing you would want to be seen in a kitchen, not hiding in a drawer. (And this is coming from a man!)

You get a good variety of items, just what every cook needs. Keep in mind that these are not coated and thus may not be suitable for non-stick cookware. (You should avoid non-stick pans anyway since it was recently determined to have carcinogenic properties! Go for stainless steel!)

Love is in the details. The size and shape of the handle should allow all sizes of hands to grasp firmly. The handles are also stainless steel but are designed not to get hot as they are separated from the shank of the handle. They have attractive hooks on the end if you want to hang them. The fork has a little plastic sleeve to cover the tines so you don't stab yourself reaching for another item. The bin is bottom heavy so it will not tip and has this little pad at the bottom so you don't damage a item when you drop it in. It is also large enough that you can add a couple of other items easily.

This is a handsome set that should last for years while retaining a "like new" appearance.

Dishwasher safe!

I give this set five stars despite the fact that they do no stir food automatically or turn over my eggs without breaking the yolks.

Pros:
Low Price
All stainless
Canister can hold extra tools
Functional tools

Cons:
So-so quality (more on this later)
All stainless (see below)

Who should buy these? Someone looking for a canister to hold their spoons and spatulas, and wants a relatively complete set of utensils. Just add a whisk and anything else you might need in the extra space. These are a great value.

Now for the Cons. The quality isn't as great as some might make it out to be. I will say the fit and finish is fair. They have some sharp edges that should have been buffed out at the factory, and other visible manufacturing defects. However, none of these will affect the function, and functionally these are good tools. The only drawback is the stainless is somewhat thin, so I can easily bend some of the tools, but they are strong enough for most cooking needs, which is the important part.

Now to the all stainless comment. It is like nails on a chalkboard for me. They screech when they go into the canister and the screech when the come out. It is an awful sound that makes me cringe. They also shouldn't be used on some non-stick pots and pans.

Overall I am happy with my purchase and would buy the product again.

I really love this utensil set and the stainless steel container. Great quality and I got a fantasic price on a "Friday Sale" with free shipping! This set should last forever.

I concur with the previous reviewers, this canister and utensil set is a terrific buy. Not only is the price a bargain, the set is beautifully made and classy looking. As stated in other reviews, there is room in the canister to add a few other utensils one may own and the canister/utensils are sturdy. I'm very happy with my purchase.

This set is a great buy for the money. All of the basics that you need are included, and they're sturdy and look great in the kitchen. I actually have my utensils hanging on hooks over the stove and use the canister for several other utensils. After this arrived, I promptly ordered two more for Christmas gifts.

I got this set for $16...an extreme bargain. The utensils are well-made, good looking and of course very handy. They look very stylish sitting on my kitchen counter. Highly recommended!

I have to admit that this is one of the best buy I ever got from Amazon. I pay $10 for the whole set when it was on sale but I won't regret if I had pay $20 or more. The look and feel are terrific, and the size is just prefect, not too large or too small. Thank you both Amazon and Pinzon for making such a great product for your customer.

I got one on sale for $10. Received it today and immediate want to order 10 more but price has gone up. Every piece is classy looking. This is one of the very few items that Amazon did not inflate the 'suggested retail price'. Worth $40 in my opionion.

Wow, just what every serious cook needs. It's beautiful, well designed and a PERFECT selection of untensils. Thanks for all of the acurate reviews from other lucky owners. For the amazing price, you just can't go wrong.

Pinzon 8-Piece Stainless-Steel Tool Set with Canister Holder We wanted the silicone spatula set and had to make room for it on the counter, so I thought the matching tool set would fit there. I have used a few tools so far and they worked fine. The ladel is nice and large and so are the spoons. There was room in the canisters to display some old favorite tools too. If you need tools these seem to be well made and large enough. I recommend this set.
