In my household, I'm the one who does the majority of the cooking... and I enjoy doing so. For many years, metal and wooden cooking utensils were the main type in use, but over time, plastic cooking utensils began replacing those on the market. Especially when using so-called "non-stick" cookware, which metal utensils can damage but plastic ones generally can't hurt.(As an aside, I'm not really a fan of "non-stick" cookware, which seems, to me, to be designed to be used for just a couple of years and then thrown out and replaced, as the "non-stick" surfaces never seem to last, no matter how carefully you use and maintain them! But my wife is a devotee of this sort of cookware, and as any husband knows, you have to pick your battles, so we buy almost all "non-stick" stuff!)While plastic cooking utensils won't harm non-stick surfaces, they have other significant issues. That is, they soften due to cooking heat, and even entirely melt at times. I can't count how many plastic spatulas I've thrown out over the years, and quite a few cooking spoons have followed the same path. Nylon is a common material for these utensils, though there are other materials which have been used, and especially when frying foods, these plastic utensils are, in my opinion, next to useless. I really don't enjoy picking out melted plastic bits from my cooking, nor do I like the idea of eating bits of nylon!So... that's where silicone cookware comes into play. Silicone is quite a bit more expensive to produce, certainly, but silicone is designed for very high-temperature use... far above what you're likely to ever see on your stovetop or inside of your oven (unless you have a major accident and are burning your house down!).Silicone is not rigid, so it's necessary to make the utensils a bit bulkier to make them as stiff as they really need to be to use them in cooking. This means "more drawer or bin space" for storage. (This also makes them heavier than equivalent nylon utensils.) But apart from that, they're superior in every possible way.They're entirely dishwasher safe, of course (though silicone items do tend to get water spotting more easily than other types of utensils, and so while this is entirely harmless, if you really want your kitchen to look like a magazine article rather than a working space, you might not like having to give them a second quick wash to remove those spots!) And they can even be left IN THE OVEN (though I can't imagine why you'd do so) or left resting in a frying pan, without risking damage to them or to the pan or dish. Silicone is an excellent thermal insulator, so unlike with metal or even most plastic utensils, you can consistently handle them no matter how long the "working end" of the utensil has been resting in the hot cooking space.I can honestly say that I've never been able to tell much difference between one brand or another where silicone utensils are concerned, apart from the design of the individual items, which is usually more cosmetic than functional in nature.In this case, the set consists of two copies each of two different spoon designs... one slotted, the other unslotted. Both designs are fairly shallow, so they're not really suitable for scooping or so forth, but are excellent for stirring, and more than adequate for moving food from a dish or pan onto a plate or serving dish.I also own a set of spatulas and turners, made out of what seems to be identical material, from another vendor, and a set of small cooking spoons, as well. And I've replaced almost all of my existing nylon-based cooking utensils with silicone at this point (I still have ladles and pasta servers in nylon, as those really aren't suitable for the material thickness silicone requires). And a couple of metal spatulas for use in my non-coated (non-"non-stick") frying skillets, griddle, and frying pans. But I've now transitioned everything else into silicone.These are great for cooking in small saucepans, whether for creating sauces, preparing frozen meals, or just general cookery usage. If you need these specific utensil designs, as I do, this is an excellent set!

Got these because there is a point when you get older and realize you’ve been using the same crappy, partially melted on the handle, dishwasher damaged cooking spoons for 20 years and need an upgrade. They are considerably smaller but that is fine with me, I use them to cook with, not to serve. Easy to clean, I hand wash them because I read from other reviews that the dishwasher will fade the color. Very comfortable to use, and can rest it on the side of a pan without worrying that it will start melting right away.

These are great for cooking. My one issue was they are a bit smaller than I expected. They are along the size of a old wooden spoon so won’t really scoop much out but as far as sturdiness and comfortable grip they are decent. I’d buy them again just now I know they aren’t really made for serving but just cooking.

Other complained these were too small, but we think they’re a great sizes! They have multiple uses and wash easily!

If these are supposed to be large, I can’t imagine what the medium size would be! Holding these in my hands while cooking and stirring food in hot pans and pots will be risky. The red color is true to the website description and image, and the thickness of silicone is very good.

They’re not massive but have a good weight and quality feel and don’t scratch the new pans

Un peu épaisse pour de la silicone. Rapport qualité / prix decevant
