On my first use the turner started bending just beyond the wire support inside. The silicon beyond the wire is quite flimsy - I was using it just for pancakes but when it stuck a crusty part stuck to the pan the turner would bend in half. Also the edge burned and turned black so quickly - I'm throwing it away as I don't like thinking the burned plastic might transfer to my food. I would not recommend this product.

I have a couple other Oxo Good Grips items that I love and I needed a new spatula, so I picked up one of these at a local grocery store. I like the design, and it's nice and thin and easy to get under food, or at least it was the first couple times I used it. That being said, it's probably okay for moving cookies off a baking sheet, but it is definitely not designed for the heat of a frying pan. I used it for flipping eggs and pancakes and the edge started to melt. I had to use a sharp knife to scrape of the rough pieces. I'll have to try the silicone version, which has a higher heat tolerance.

I purchased this OXO spatula to replace my previous OXO that had the solid metal blade (now sold again here on Amazon; 1071536) as the tip had started to come open after several years of hard use, thinking, that based on my experience with OXO products, if it is made by OXO, it must be well made. From the get go I was unhappy. Specifically, the plastic part of the spatula required hard scrubbing to clean it, and I found it to be hyperflexible to the point of picking up things and then dumping them, like burgers. I finally threw it out after finding, for the umpteenth time,that it still contained food material after washing it. With my old OXO, a simple rinse with a sponge with soap under hot water cleaned it thoroughly. I am happy that Amazon now has my previous style in stock again, and I will order it forthwith!

I have had these before and tried the OXO silicon one and did not like it. The orange color is just fun. I have never had issue with any of them ever warping like some reviews have mentioned. Great item, I will have these in my kitchen always.

I have one of these in black and when I saw it in chocolate I had to buy it. I love it. It is the best for omelettes and pancakes!

I already own 2 of the metal version of this spatula and love it, so I bought the red and black one for my non-stick pans. I thought it would be more flexible, like the metal ones are, but that's its only flaw in my eyes. That's why I give it 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that, it is perfect. I like the thin blade and tip, which makes turning delicate items a breeze without tearing or crumpling them up like the thick plastic spatulas do. Mine did not melt, blister, or curl. I know this for a fact, because I accidently left the blade in my fry pan on high when I went to answer the phone. When I came back, the food was ruined but the spatulas was perfect. I'm here to buy a second one. :o)
