Calphalon 4-Piece Nylon Utensil Set

My only comments to warrant 4 stars are that the ladle would be nicer if it had pouring lips on the sides like some do. Also, the Calphalon tools get a little "limp" when they get hot. This is really only an issue for the spoon. I've never run into anything that I cook on a griddle over 400 oF, so melting them hasn't been an issue, but you do have to pay attention.

I bought these after searching all around for heat resistent cooking utensils, and I'm so glad I did. I no longer have plastic melting into whatever it is I'm cooking!! I can even leave them sitting in the pan when cooking, and they still haven't melted. And, since they are plastic, my husband can now cook without fear of getting in trouble for scratching my pans!


handles weighted wrong   November 6, 2002

These are very attractive and work great as long as you don't let go of one. They are weighted in the handles and all of these utensils constantly fall out of skillets and pans. Besides this being messy, if one hits you it could be dangerous. After many accidents, I don't use them anymore. I do not recommend.


Great Spatulas!   January 18, 2002

As I spend a lot of time cooking in the galley of a boat I've tried lots of different brands of nylon utensils because I need something that will not rust in the salty environment. Calphalon has the only spatulas that have a fine enough edge to easily lift pancakes and crepes (for when I'm not feeling nimble enough to flip them in the pan) without ripping them apart, and the edge has not disintegrated/melted over time from heat, as other brands do, even after six months of constant use.
