Customer Reviews

Great kitchen products
We love this line of Calphalon products because of their durability and design. The handle is very comfortable and has a good 'cushion' grip. This cushion-grip, however, causes the handle to be wider than most other utensils, which may cause problems if you're trying to fit them all in your current container on your kitchen counter. Also, don't be deceived by the image...there is no metal on the handle (it's just silver rubber). The best thing is the products are all one piece, so you don't have to worry about the tops coming apart from the handles.

Nice and big, good heat tolerance, moderate build/design quality
This is a good sized ladle that won't scratch those expensive pots. It should have no problem fitting in your kitchen drawers. Its easy to clean, although, heavy abrasive pads will leave deep gouges in the ladle. No big deal there.

The complaint I have is, the gray part of the handle pops out. For example, you are washing it and give it a good rub to clean the spoon part... well, almost everytime I doing that, the gray part towards the spoon area will pop-up (not completely off the handle, but pops-up). I stop and just pop it back in place.

With that flaw, I worry that food and liquids will get trapped in there, building bacteria and nasty stuff. I contemplate removing the entire gray part to clean it every now and then, but worry that if I take it off, I won't be able to put it back.

Perhaps mine is defective, but, I've missed the boat on returning the product, so, I will keep it until it breaks completely or I get tired of it.

Good Soup Ladle
I purchased this product to another order so that I would qualify for free shipping. Even though I wouldn't have ordered it otherwise, I am very happy with it. It is nicer than I anticipated. The ladle has amounts listed on it. For those of us who are concerned about serving size and portion control, this is a great feature.
