Tool Set Reviews

The photo above does not do this item justice. When my Metrokane Complete Bartender arrived I was blown away by how beautiful it is in person. Not only is it a wonderful addition to any bar with it's sleek, retro styling but it is the only set you'll need with the quality Metrokane construction that many have come to know on the beloved Rabbit corkscrew. I strongly recommend!

This set is all you need at the BBQ !!! It does it all, and is of good quality. Great price too!!Thanks Amazon.com.

This is a high quality, flexible hose and a much improved alternative to the cheap plastic hose that came with my Craftsman. The only problem with it is that it uses 1 1/2" attachments which aren't readily available to the consumer.

But the real story here is Grizzly's attitude toward customer service. They had the incorrect picture on the site (since fixed) that misled me into believing that it was the hose that had attachments. The part number was correct, though, and when I received the hose I realized my mistake. When Amazon invited me to comment on the sale I mentioned the error, but still gave Grizzly 4 stars for smooth transaction and quick shipment. Within 2 hours I had email from Grizzly saying that they had realized their error and that they were shipping me the merchandise shown in the picture. I was stunned. This was far beyond anything that they could reasonably be expected to do.

I have always been a satisfied Grizzly customer, but now I guess I'm a Grizzly evangelist.

I'm now addicted to OXO products, and I've been cooking far more. I love them!

I really like this set. The nice is practical for everyday use. I like how the handle on the peeler is larger than on most peelers. It is much easier to hold. It is great for carrots, potatoes, chocolate for fondue, etc. This knife is great to use on just about anything. Whether it's slicing an apple or cutting a sandwich in half.

I bought my first set of OXO godd grips seafood picks during a visit at the Culinary Institute in Napa, Cal. We serve a Veal "Osso Bucco" in our restaurant, and I have been looking for a tool to pick the marrow. This pick works perfectly. ......We are an elegant restaurant and the OXO picks fit right in with both its elegant and sturdy design. Just bought 5 sets on this site, at less than what I paid in California...

I bought this set recently to replace my 6 year old mismatched utensils, and I'm very happy with the purchase. The tools are visually pleasing as well as have a "solid" feel to them. I've washed all of them several times in the dishwasher (top rack) and they came out just fine. All of the tools are a good size, and the spatula is really long and angled at the tip but doesn't bend easily like cheaper ones. The spoons (one slotted, one regular) come to a bit of a blunt point so they are good at getting everything out of a bowl/pot. The container they come with is heavy enough to not topple over with the weight of the utensils and looks great. Considering the price and gaurantee, this is a good deal all around for people (like me) who just want a decent set of tools to display and use in day-to-day cooking. Put this one on the counter and leave your spares in the drawer.

Pros:
Sturdy container
Spatula is rigid, not flimsy
Inexpensive
Dishwasher safe

Cons:
None yet, will update.

You think plastic... weak, melting... No
It is sturdy yet slightly flexible not to be easily breakable.
It handles warm to hot liquid real well as it is made with a some kind of high temperature plastic.
The best are these rubber lines that helps it sticking to the recipient into which you are pouring. No third hand needed nor worries about hot or messy spills.
A little mesh, provided with the set, can be inserted to strain the liquid which is really handy.
Storage of the Funnel set is nice as the funnels and the grid nest into each other.
What might have been nice? Maybe a slightly bigger handle for when we work with kids.
Still, a must have for every cook.

I've had this set for years! It was a great help to me when I was just starting to learn the art of cake decorating, and it's still a boon to get me past those times when I'm rusty at a technique I haven't used in a while! A must have for any aspiring cake artist! Easy to use, with clear instructions for each page, and many are included. The easel makes it easy to practice each technique like on a real cake too, a real help. It's great to pull it out once in a while to have a go at something before decorating a cake, cuts down on mistakes and hideously gaudy cakes, having given me a precurser look at some things before tackling a cake. Now that's a real reputation saver there, not to mention cutting down on frusteration and saving the hassle of starting over, saving you time, even saves money that way, less icing! How can you go wrong?!

This product is wonderful! I love the weight of the tools (heavy enough for serious gardening). Tote is strong and large enough to carry many items. This will save me trips back and forth to the greenhouse or storage shed. I'm looking forward to the spring thaw so I can really get out and use it.
