Rubbermaid Commercial Products High Heat Resistant Silicone Heavy Duty Spatula/Food Scraper 13.5-Inch 500 Degrees F Red Handle for Baking/Cooking/Mixing Commercial Dishwasher Safe

I bought this larger (13.5 inch) Rubbermaid Commercial spatula based on a recommendation from America's Test Kitchen. It is a terrific product -- but I've found that I use this large one pretty much only for stirring the bowl on my stand mixer. The long handle is great for this, because it keeps me from getting batter or dough on my hand. I liked the large one so much that I bought two of the smaller, 9-inch ones. And I find that they are so heat-resistant that I use them for stirring food on the stove. And if I forget to take them out of the skillet, they show no sign of any heat deterioration. I just wish they made them ONE SIZE smaller than the 9-inch one. One note: America's Test Kitchen said the Rubbermaid Commercial spatulas stained when used in tomatoes. I make shashuka all the time (it's mostly tomatoes) and I've NEVER had the spatula stain.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: We recently got rid of all of our black utensils and looked for alternative replacements. I bought this gizmo during that effort. It’s quite nice and has a sturdy feel, not flimsy at all like some utensils. I’m thinking of adding a second one to the drawer because we use this one so much. I run it through the dishwasher all the time too with no ill effects.

It is big, but it works well.

just bought as it was heavy duty and on sale.... old ones were wearing away.... never tried the heat temperance, but seems like it would hold up.... really bought it for plain old cake baking bowl, but if have to stir hot jello mix, have a spatula to hold up to task.... good grip... the 9 inch seems a bit short, but the long handle one seems too long... both have balance though,, feel good in hand.... right spatual for the size bowl you have ...

Excellent spatula

I bought this scraping spatula because it won America's test kitchen's review. I am not disappointed. I have a very large hands, and the spatula is very large. It's head is big enough to be able to scrape out a large bowl without too many passes. I happen to make large batches of food, so I don't use small bowls very often. This spatula is too big for small containers. I've used it with tomato sauce once and put it through the dishwasher once or twice. I don't see strong tomato stains on the white head. I don't understand what the notch on the back of the Whitehead is used for, but I'm sure there's a reason for it with which I am simply not yet familiar. This is NSF rated ie can be used in commercial kitchens. The handle is very long, too long for most bowls that I use, but good if you had a very deep bowl. But the bowl would have to be very very deep, something like a 30 quart mixing bowl, for the length of the spatulas handle to be warranted. The handle is thicker in the middle and tapers more to a point at the end on the far side of the spatulas head. I don't understand the benefit of that, and it indicates to me nearly that you're not supposed to use the end told it with. That makes the links of the handle even less understandable. For that reason I reduced the star rating by one. If they have the next smaller version, I would probably get it. There's a protrusion on the white head on one side right next to the handle. It's designed to keep the white side off of the counter if you put it flat on the counter. And if there's no food on the spatulas head, then it works that way. But unless you're working with very thin liquids, the amount of space between the table and the spatulas head is too small for this intention to be useful. So this seems like another design idea that was better in theory than in practice. Nonetheless, the spatula is better than the others I've used.

This spatula has been preferred by America’s Test Kitchen for years. I love it because its more versatile than your average spatula in that the long handle gives you more reach into deeper pots, bowls, containers, etc., and the high heat resistance means you can use it in hot pans without it melting or eventually breaking down. It’s great for making sauces, scrambled eggs, and creamy soups. I would not try it for frying or caramelizing sugar/candy making, but there are better tools for that. Keeps the sides and bottoms of working bowls and most pots and pans nicely scraped down and stirred. Oh, there’s also a thumb-sized notch on the back of the scraping blade that’s handy for running around the rim of the bowl or pot that needs scraping. I’d like it’s twin in a spoonula shape.

La mejor, la uso para hacer manjar blanco, fudge y miel.

Terrific spatula! Bends just enough to scrape out all of my bowls and doesn’t stain. Highly recommend.

Der "Rubbermaid hitzebeständiger Schaber 34cm" ist so toll das wir jetzt schon trotz des Preises einen zweiten bestellt haben, denn ein einziger so ein Schaber mit richtig ausreichend langem Stiel ist in der Küche einfach nicht genug. Ideal, nicht zu weich nicht zu hart. Anscheinend wirklich haltbar und hitzebeständig. Wir holen damit so einiges vorsichtig aus heißen Töpfen.

Excellent quality item well worth the money, arrived as ordered. Would recommend anyone wanting a good quality spatula to purchase this one. Very pleased

Muy resistente y muy bien diseñada. Seguiré comprando esta marca.

I don't mind, but its made in China. Very happy with my purchase, i can now stir in the corners of my pots
