Nice, cute, for a great cause but could be better [Posted on 2008-02-09]
I was looking for a new silicone spatula to replace the one I currently use when I found this. It was so pretty and appears to be well-made. However, due to the consistent pink throughout the handle and spatula head I was expecting sealed construction, but instead the handle comes of the spatula head of this just like most spatulas. I like the new spatulas that have a steel core and silicone overlay because bacteria cannot become trapped in the place where the handle gets inserted into the spatula. For that reason I knocked off a star, but regardless, it's for a great cause because 10% of the retail price gets donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Also, the spatula is fairly stiff, so depending upon the flexibility you are seeking, this may or may not be the spatula for you. Also, Kitchenaid Cook for the Cure has a set of kitchen utensils, KitchenAid Cook for the Cure 6-Piece Utensil Set, Pink, but those are only plastic instead of silicone, so this is a nicer spatula than the one that comes in the set.

Awesome, Affordable, Charitable. Reliable [Posted on 2008-04-22]
I've lost count of the number of spatulas/scrapers I've thrown away. They melt or the rubber loosens and the parts separate. I ordered this one because I trust Kitchenaid. (and who doesn't want to donate to a good cause while making good yummies...?)

As an avid baker and cook, I couldn't be more pleased. Kitchenaid delivers solidly made products that I continue to invest in, and this is no exception. Like other reviewers, I found the spatula's action to be a little stiffer than I expected, but that's easily adapted to. (A little resistance can be an asset when scraping thick doughs anyway)

The grip is comfortable, and the highly heat resistant silicone means I don't have to worry about my house mates melting it. This is definitely my scraper tool of choice.

The only issue that lowers this product's rating? The head is removable. I'd actually prefer that it be of solid construction. I have had similar spatulas, and with extended use and washing, the heads have always gotten too loose and fallen off the handles. Not to mention that if water or foodstuffs get trapped in the opening or if its not properly cleaned or dried, bacteria can fester inside. Yuck!)

In Kitchenaid's defense, this doesn't look as if it will happen for a long while, and given Amazon's affordable prices and Kitchenaid's reliability, I wouldn't mind buying another one, if it comes to that. (and some more for friends...)

pretty, pink and practical [Posted on 2008-06-11]
As with all kitchen aide products, this spatula will hold up to many years of use. And the handle is substantial so it is easy to hang on to. I don't think this one will disintegrate like all my other spatulas seem to.

So cute! [Posted on 2008-06-16]
