Anyone else tempted by the Spurtle set TSV tomorro... - Page 3

Ohhh, they're silicone? I was ready to say that I probably won't be interested, as most of them used to be wood. The colors are fun.

While I like wood for SOME utensils, I go for some nice olive wood. They always need special care, so I don't use wood utensils as a natural course of action. But the olive wood utensils are just so beautiful and last forever if you take care of them.

I love good quality silicone utensils and, aside from my many decades old nylon utensils, I use them every day. Those two are my favs for utensils.

I purchased the 4 piece silicon set a couple months ago and I rarely use it so I will pass on the TSV. I have been using the Food Network silicon Spoons and Spatulas from Kohls for years and always reach for them.

Oh yes. I thought some of those looked familiar. I have a red set of silicone ones. I think the only one I've used is the one that corresponds to the purple one in the set shown here. That is pretty handy!

I have so many utensils that it's just crazy. Fortunately, I have a ton of counter space because I have FIVE utensil crocks on the counters and that's nowhere near all the utensils I actually have (rest of them in drawers).

But that little skinny one is pretty cool. I wish I could remember what I recently used it for. d'oh!

The colors not what I would select except the red. Why no neutrals!

@Laura14 I have the silicone ones and love them. They work great, however, if you are looking to use them like a metal spatula (for turning over eggs), they are too thick. But for turning items like cooked meat or pancakes or similar they are great. I use them mostly for stirring while cooking or scooping mayo or jam and spreading on bread.

If a good price, get them, but you will probably find similar single ones (not a set) at any TJMaxx.

......You look like I need a drink.....

I love the Food Network Silicone utensils sold at Kohl's.

Easy to grip, easy to use, you can also find similar one's at

Tuesday Morning. You really need to put them in your hand

and see what feels good, if the handle is too thin or thick, you

will not want to pick them out of your drawer and actually use them.

I had enough of those and they got tossed, others just sat there and looked pretty in the drawer.

Not for $30 when you add shipping.

I wouldn't want all those clown colors.

Edit: At first I only saw the multi color set. Didn't realize you could get them all in one color. That being said, I really don't care for silicone.

I was tempted yo get as gifts but noted the shipping fee- think I will pass and try local. Nice idea of set.

I actually woke up in the middle of the night and caught Mary's presentation at midnight. I think I am going to pass and look to see what's out in stores as others have recommended. I don't think I would ever come anywhere close to using this many plus I think I can do better price wise for what I really would use and want. Most of what I do I don't think applies to what these are really meant for.

Thanks all for your opinions and recommendations. I really appreciate it.
