So Useful I Bought Two Sets
By Joshua Cohen
After two plus decades, I finally decided to replace my wood utensils. Though they had served me well, they were now cracked and splintering.

I was considering nylon or silicone utensils to replace them, but about the same time, I had purchased a bamboo cutting board and really loved it. So I checked out bamboo utensils and found these very nice and reasonably priced tools.

First, they are great with all types of cookware, whether traditional or nonstick. And the burnished bamboo surface is very tough. It doesn't mind high heat or the dishwasher.

I also like the bamboo container. It's small enough to place anywhere in the kitchen. I have on set by the stove and another on my prep table.

The only thing I wish it had was a deeper spoon or ladle for serving.

sturdy and good looking
By E. S. Noyes
I bought this bamboo set after considering various silicone alternatives, which are A) a lot more expensive, and B) pretty unattractive. I think when beauty marries function, that's the ideal combo. Super practical, easy on the eyes. Joyce Chen offers a good variety of utensils -- two spatulas, a spoon, tongs -- just what you really need. And these wont scratch your non-stick or your stainless. And perhaps most important, you get the utensils plus the holder (I got mine on sale) for about what you'd pay for one silicon very non-green tool. The whole thing doesn't take up much room, so you can park the holder handily by the stove. I was pleased with the purchase.

Great set for the price
By KSM
Most wood spoons are $5 each and this was a nice set for the price.
I have not owned this longer than a few weeks, but so far, I am happy with the set. the tongs are wood of course and seem stiff, I hope that they dont snap when I use them, but they seem well made. The actual container the utensils sit in reminds me of a barrel that wine is aged in, pretty rustic and skinny and simple, and I think nice for a small or simple kitchen. It seems tiny on my counter and I prefer a more substantial container, but even if I toss the container and just keep the utensils, it is a great buy!
