ATK gets it right this time

We bought the previous ATK Best Silicone Spatula winner, Rubbermaid. We've found that not only is it too big to fit in most glasses, it's also not flexible enough to scrape everything out of the pan. This new winner does those jobs better and is strong enough for most uses, but it's not perfect. It's too stiff and doesn't taper thin enough to scrape anything out of glasses or pans. I still prefer the Kitchenaid for this purpose and for making scrambled eggs, although the problems ATK mentioned with this spatula are correct - it can absorb dishwater if you don't dry it completely before putting it back together, it can melt if You put it in a hot pan and it has ridges that can be painful to pull off. This brings up a more important point: I think you need more than one silicone spatula for different purposes. I still prefer Rubbermaid for food transportation. The Oxo is better suited for tasks where you need a little more weight than Kitchenaid suggests, but for which the Rubbermaid is too big. However, if you're looking for a model that's not the best for any of those tasks but is the sweet spot, or if you just need a silicone spatula, this is a solid choice. It's still pretty good.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Weight
