Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Despite all the bright-colored, high-tech silicone kitchen utensils out these days, there’s nothing quite like the good old-fashioned feel of wood for cooking needs. Crafted from solid beech wood, this 14-inch turner is long enough to keep hands away from oil or heat, making it ideal for flipping flapjacks or keeping potstickers from sticking. While the gently curved head thins to a straight edge, the give of wood means the edge is safe for nonstick cookware. A natural oil finish protects the wooden turner and won’t contaminate food.

True to OXO’s creed of designing products that are easy to use for the widest range of cooks, the handle, which is flat on top and sensuously curved underneath, comfortably fits the hand. A hole in the end allows the turner to hang where it’s most needed. Set in a crock, the turner forms a handsome bouquet with OXO’s other wooden utensils, such as mixing spoons, slotted spoons, and a spaghetti server. Wooden utensils are best washed by hand. OXO backs all its products with a satisfaction warranty, and will replace or refund any returned item. --Ann Bieri

1.0 out of 5 stars heavy, and it cracked in the first month - do not be fooled by attractive low price, April 17, 2007

By	Beatrice Izzey "Nanny Dog" (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

I trusted OXO as a brand, but found this turner to be extremely heavy and non-ergonomic. Plus it cracked in less than one month and it's not like I cook that often. I think OXO should stick to extrusion plastic goods and stay away from wood products. Do not be attracted to this cheap price. Better to buy a bamboo turner for $1 at a Chinese supermarket - that lasts, is lightweight, and easy to wash.

1.0 out of 5 stars Split after a couple of washes, January 13, 2005

By	Christopher Chin - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As the previous reviewer described, this turner starts to split after only a few washes. I would avoid this product, unless you want a disposable turner.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great wooden tool with some heft!, June 16, 2005

By	T. Elliff "nodosagal" (Mesa, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this turner. I use it for stir-fry and making thick sauces. It has a nice weight and thickness to it.

I've had it for about 3 months now. I've never had it splinters come off of it. I do handwash it. I never do wooden tools in the dishwasher.
