It does not say if they are heat resistant or dishwasher safe. How are these???

[Kachina624]

They are Silicone so of course they're dishwasher safe and heat resistant.

The silicone spurtles are junk, save your money

I only used mine for mixing batter, etc

Mine aremade of wood and I absolutely adore them....

I have both wood and silicone and find myself reaching for the wooden ones over silicone every time.  If I fry a quick hamburger I use wood to turn.  Never has a problem.  Wash wooden ones by by hand.  It's a personal choice.

I have both and I find the silicone to be good.  But the wood ones splinter on the sides and I'm afraid that wood will fall into my food when I stir it.  I do tap them on the side of pans when cooking, so I assume that's what did the splintering.  So I won't be buying any wooden ones again. I probably won't buy any again.

I have a bunch of the silicone ones. I use some of them several times a week, and certain ones daily. So far, so good.  I also have some wooden ones. I had too pitch one because I accidentally burned it. 🔥 😬

Same here @luvmybeetle 

My wooden splintered even tho they NEVER went in the dishwasher.

Always washed by hand AND dried immediately.  I would never buy the wooden again either.

Most did this before the warranty was up, but you can't reach ANYONE to get replacements!  Emails unaswered, no phone number.

I LOVE the silicone.  Have had no problems, no splinters and I use them every single day.

The pic above looks like the mixer beaters hit them!

I had bought the wooden set when it was offered a couple of years ago.  I was very disappointed after just one use -- they started splintering along the edges at the top of each spurtle.  Never used them again.  They were supposed to be a "collector's item" == they are, if you never want to use them.

I love my silicone spurdles.  I've had them for years and have no problems whatsoever.  I make hard crack candies like toffee with zero problems.  Have given as gifts and everyone is  loving them.
