A Great Bargain, July 3, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Philippe Richard 12-Piece Barbecue Set in Metal Case (Lawn & Patio)
A good set of BBQ tools for a great price. I presented them as a Father's Day gift and he is very pleased with them. They are very solid and almost too nice to use. The case they come with is very useful for keeping track of your BBQ stuff. My fiancee gave a set to her father, and he was just as impressed--I would highly recommend them. Just make sure to clean them up afterward, so they keep looking great!

Beware of Flying Objects, December 18, 2003

Beware of projectile objects in this grill set!
My Father, whom I purchased this for a few months ago, was simply admiring what he thought was a durable new barbecue set.
Two weeks ago, after very little use (except for hamburgers) he was cooking up some ribs on the grill. He came in the house holding the turner in his hand. He was coming inside to grab a large plate to place the ribs on after taking them off the grill.
Low and behold, my Father shook the turner (imagine the action of picking up a hammer and getting a feel for it) and the end of the turner went flying across the room at the zenith of the shaking motion.
It busted the glass and some of my Mother's trinkets/souvenirs/relics/etc. in her Curio cabinet. It was an amazing sight, I assure you. It was fit for any slap stick comedy special.
However, the laughs were short lived after examing this damage, and seeing what exactly had happened with the turner. The plastic handle had literally split open, releasing the metal portion into the air.
I assure you my Father was not swinging this device like a baseball bat. As aforementioned, the way he swung the scraper was similar to getting a feel for a new hammer someone was about to buy.
We were quite fortunate no one was standing near the Curio cabinet. I dread the thought of someone being near the Curio cabinet at that time and what could have happened.
So, beware of these utensils. They may cause harm to you or your precious fine China.
Sincerely,
S.M. Dunbar
