OXO Good Grips Kitchen Utensil Set, Silver

got it during the prime day and I am surprised by the quality of the set.

I wasn’t sure if 80 bucks was worth this container of products, but after 4 months of use I am glad I bought them. None of them have broken or anything, they are all very durable, they all clean well nothing sticks/melts to them and I can see them lasting for quite a while. Not only do you have every kitchen utensil you could ever need (besides a wine bottle opener) it is all good quality and ergonomically correct and a pleasure to use. It’s one-stop quality shopping. I read most of the comments before buying to help make my decision, some people didn’t see the value in a product like this, saying they probably could have gotten everything less had they just bought different spoons, etc separately, I beg to differ! When I spend money I want the best quality for the price I’m paying and this is it. I feel confident I wont need to replace any of these items anytime soon. I have bought cheap kitchen supplies before- plastic thin spoons that break when you stir something thick like cookie dough, spatulas that melt in with the food when you stir, pizza cutters that wobble or don’t cut well- this has all of those items but they are all of the best quality. The container is tight, and the items come outside of the container, and me, I just put a few of the bigger ones in a drawer, like the pizza cutter and the can opener, and it works out great for me. This was definitely worth the money to me.

6-month update: STILL HAPPY WITH THIS PRODUCT, GLAD I BOUGHT QUALITY KITCHEN TOOLS

I bought these utensils from amazon warehouse and they were used but in great condition. Upon recieving them I noticed that the boxes was wet and there was slight mold around the box which did throw me off and I contacted amazon about the problem and they fixed it immediately which lightened my mood concerning the product. That’s another issue in it itself but let’s get to the product. The product came in and after multiple washes and rinses in the sink and dishwasher I noticed that majority of the utensils were still brand new except one of the spoons was burnt but other than that I was happy for the price I paid for them. I tested out to see why the spoon had melted and found out that they are not made to be sitting in a hot pan or on top of the rim of a hot pot for too long or else they will melt and leave either indentations or scorched marks. I’m an avid oxo fan and have a kitchen full of their products and am greatly disappointed with this factor and it’s says that it can withstand greater temperatures than the surfaces I had it on. The utensils are sturdy and are very easy to clean which we love. I learned that for the spatulas you will need to wash them immediately if you are dealing with tomato sauces or high citric acid food because it will stain them and they can be unappealing to the eyes especially for me since I like my kitchen ware to look clean and not discolored. I love my oxo set even though all these setbacks and their stylish look and sturdiness. I hope that oxo fixes the issues with how the utensils melt but other than that they are amazing. Thanks for reading my review.

I bought this set almost 4 years ago and every piece is still holding up extremely well. As others have said in their reviews, the container does not fit the utensils very well. I store my utensils in a large ceramic utensil holder, like how they’re displayed in the picture (because I don’t have a lot of cupboard space in my tiny kitchen). I actually put the container to use and have it in my kitchen; it holds my scissors, twisty ties, pens and other odds and ends.

The 12-inch tongs are one of my favorite utensils that came with this set. It has a thing on the end that you can pull out to lock the tongs in place, which makes for easier storage. It works great as a pasta tong as well!

The flexible turner, square turner, spoon, and slotted spoon are all GREAT! I use all 4 of these frequently. The spoons and square turner (the one with the slots) are very sturdy and well made; I frequently run them through the dishwasher and have seen no wear on them, even after 4 years of use. The flexible turner is flexible and bends easily, so I wouldn’t recommend using it on heavier foods. It’s good for making pancakes, flipping fish, etc.

The spatula is pretty small, but it still comes in very handy. It’s so small that you can fit it in a can of spaghettios. It’s flat, which makes it great for scraping things. I like to use it for baking or making casseroles.

The swivel peeler works great. It’s so sharp that I accidentally cut myself the first time I used it to peel potatoes, but that’s my fault. It definitely gets the job done.

The balloon whisk is very sturdy. I’ve seen some flimsy whisks where the wiring on them tends to fall apart, but that’s not the case with this one. I love how thick the handle is. It’s very easy to hold onto and I’ve never owned a whisk better than this one.

The pizza wheel is amazing! Again, it has a nice grip on it. In fact, all of these utensils have great grips on them (that’s pretty obvious with a brand like Good Grips). The blade is heavy duty and lets you easily cut through pizzas.

The ice cream scoop works very well and can scoop extremely cold ice cream straight from the freezer with ease. It does not have one of those little levers that releases the ice cream out of the scoop.

I have not yet used the meat tenderizer or the grater, but they both look like great utensils. The meat tenderizer is surprisingly light weight. In fact, the grater is slightly heavier than the meat tenderizer (and they’re not heavy to begin with). The grater is curved and has a long grippy handle on it.

My only tiny complaints are:
1. The ice cream scoop and the pizza wheel (not the actual wheel part, but the part that connects the wheel to the handle) are showing some oxidation. I don’t know if that’s the right word for it, but the stainless steel parts have what look like little bubbles in them. These are the only two utensils that this has happened to, and they’re still perfectly useable.
2. The potato masher. The masher part of it is on the thick side. It makes it harder than it should to mash things, and it’s very hard to maneuver. If you’re mashing something in a round bowl or a pan, it’s very hard to reach the sides of it. It’s also not very wide, and it just makes me feel like I’m doing way more mashing than I should have to. There are definitely better potato mashers out there.
3. The holder. If you want to take the time to fit each utensil into it like a puzzle then it’ll work, but as I said earlier I ended up using it for something else.

In short, this is a great set of utensils that have held up for 4 years (and counting) of frequent use, and are still going strong. Also, I strictly wash my dishes in the dishwasher, and these utensils have gone through countless dishwashes. I would highly recommend this set. I bought it because I was moving into my first apartment and had no utensils, and this pretty much covers all of the bases.

I bought these just to get a whole new set, and they are extremely durable and very easy to clean I’ve noticed that they are way easier to clean than many other ones I’ve had in the past.. they also look nice too cosmetically on the counter.
