great!!!!!!!!!! July 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
the nylon slotted turner is great. I use everyday & it still looks like new. There is no melting & cracking on the edges. It is what I expected from calphalon.
It does melt April 28, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This does melt from the heat when using it. I like it but it will not hold up with use. The part where it touches the heat looks like it is curling up but I suspect it is just melting away. Very nice looking but not as heat resistant as they claim.

I would have like to known the length of the spatula before purchase. I think it works well with any cooking. It is a great utensil for anybody new to cooking.
Decent but lacking October 26, 2007 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
We received a variety of these Calphalon nylon utensils (including this slotted turner) as a gift almost a year ago. They are defintiely heat resistant, but they have not proven to be very durable in other regards. I am already looking to replace them and won't be buying this "model" again for a couple of reasons:
First, the edges have "flaked". I am not sure how else to describe it, they aren't exactly cracked but layers of the material have peeled away and this caused little bits of the utensil to break free and add unwanted "seasoning" to my dishes.
Second, they bend fairly easily- not too bad, but enough to be annoying. The silicon grip peeled up at the stress point within weeks. It appears that the grip just isn't mounted well and comes apart a little more with each use.
Third, though they claim to be dishwasher safe, one pass through the washer left them with what look like bleach stains.
Overall I am not completely dissatisfied, after all they do the job (albeit with mediocre performance). I don't feel like the purchase price of these would be a waste by any means, they certainly perform better than cheapo plastic utensils. However, I have used better and would recommend considering an alternative.
Perfect flipper October 10, 2007 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a great spatula.... perfect for eggs, fish, pancakes... you name it! Thinking of buying several and giving them as Christmas gifts.
