Winco Stainless Steel Piano Wire Whip, 10-Inch

I kept buying the cheap Walmart wisks and they would break so fast. This one is holding up well and is great quality.

First- in order for my review to have any clout you need to understand my past relationship with whisks. I've never had one longer than a few months without the handle separating from the wire portion, or having wires come loose and detach. I can't explain it! I don't misuse them and I'm not an overly strong person, I even stopped putting them in the dishwasher hoping it would extend the use. When I saw this product I added it to my cart out of desperation because I had just broken another whisk that week and needed another. I did glance briefly at the reviews and it seemed like I wouldn't have much to lose considering the low price. It arrived quickly and was packaged just fine. I picked it up out of the box and just about giggled out loud with excitement! I couldn't believe how sturdy it felt! The weight is substantial, it's the heaviest whisk I've owned, but NOT in a bad way, in a quality way. It's not exhausting to use (referring to it's weight) and for the most part it's comfortable in my hand. I wish the handle were about a half inch longer but that is by no means a deal breaker. The wires are pretty close together making it really efficient. I've used this many times now and it's going strong. Bottom line: I would recommend this whisk to anyone, I LOVE it, and I'm going to buy more!

Winco Stainless Steel Piano Wire Whip, 10-Inch I desperately needed a whisk. Twirling the fork was becoming a bit much. So, for a couple of days I scoured Amazon for a good product in my budget range. And WALLAH! Along came Winco USA. Trepidation cautiously pressed the "enter" key and off flew the cyber order. The whisk, or as Winco markets the ominous Wire Whip — so frenzied me I whipped the dickens out of that blueberry muffin dough — arrived promptly, exactly as advertised and I like it. Some reviewers complain the handle at 1" across is too large for their hands. But I like it a lot better than the skinny handled whisks. Skinny = muscle cramps if there is a lot of "whipping" to do. The full length of the Winco Whip is around 9 1/2 - 10": the handle @ 4 1/2" long. The wire whip just under 5 1/2" long. The Stainless Steel Piano Wire Whip is sturdy and maybe a little heavy — nothing flimsy like some of the smaller, skinner styles. I would say this is more on the professional chef model than Suzy HomeMaker baking Sunday's apple pie. But, Suzy could like this well built whisk. For the price, it offers a nice alternative for harder to whip dough, etc. My motto, "Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it." At least this whisk whip won't bend or flail around in thick dough whereas a smaller, skinner whisk would demand a lot of hand, wrist and arm struggle. I didn't find it difficult to wash. Immediately after using I swished the Wire Whip in soapy water, then held it under a full flow hot water tap. Washed right off. Could be the trick is washing it right after using it. In the attached video I demonstrate the Winco Wire Whip making hot chocolate on this cold Wisconsin winter. Whipped right up. Yummy.☕️😍 Enjoy. I recommend this product and the Seller who delivered promptly with the product as described.

I'm happy with my whisk

I purchased this whip (whisk..) to replace one that had finally given up the ghost after about ten years. I have a selection of whisks in various sizes, but this size (ten inch..) is one of my favorites. If you get bigger than say a twelve inch you are getting into the realm of commercial or restaurant uses although there are probably some home cooks who use larger ones on occasion. In any event, a ten inch whisk is a good size for most home operations. This particular whisk is patterned as a "french style" more than a "balloon". It is slimmer and more tapered which allows it to get into the small bends and corners easier than a true balloon whisk. It can double easily as a pan whisk for gravies or sauces as well. The one place it does not function quite as well is as a whisk for cream or egg whites if you are doing a larger batch. Smaller batches work very well with this style of whisk. Most folks will find the ten inch length to be about right. If you work a lot in larger bowls with larger amounts of product... then a larger whisk may suit you better (say a twelve inch..). The wires in this whisk are fastened securely to the handle and apparently reinforced with some sort of liquid plastic or epoxy. My bet would be on the epoxy. It seems to be well constructed and quite sturdy even though it has a goodly number or relatively small diameter wires. Small wires, and lots of them, work best for whipping air into batters or creams. Sometimes they can be less than satisfactory for scraping up browned bits in a flat pan for sauces or gravies... but that is where a flat or "pan" whisk is best used anyway. The one drawback that I can find with this whisk is the weight of the handle. The handle is relatively large and heavy compared to the size of the whisk. That of course is user preference, but I would have preferred a slightly lighter handle. Four stars for a decent whisk at a good price. If it were to fail next year, I would be disappointed, but not unduly concerned. It is relatively inexpensive and easily replaced.

As a collector of kitchen gadgets, I should have added this to my collection years ago! I was surprised by how well-made and durable this little winner is. There are no plastic pieces, and it feels sturdy in my hand. It does a fantastic job of whisking, and is easy to clean. I haven't experienced any rust issues, but I always wash by hand and dry immediately. It is by far my favorite of 3 whisks I own. As an added bonus, I love that it takes up so little space and I don't have to struggle with opening/closing the drawer where it's kept!

Very sturdy and well made.

Great for whipping

Un peu lourd à manipuler, mais a priori de bonne qualité. Un point un peu négatif : en passage au lave-vaisselle, le manche se remplit d'eau car pas étanche, à voir si ça ne risque pas de rouiller avec le temps.

Un utensilio de acero inoxidable de excelente calidad y desempeño. Es algo pesado, y muy durable.

Ustensile confortable dans la main. Bon rapport qualité-prix. Solidité assurée
