Mercer Culinary Hell's Tools Hi-Heat Slotted Spatula, 12 Inch x 3.5 Inch, Blue

This a really nice, basic spatula. It works well with nonstick pans and is easy to clean. So far, it has been very durable.

I bought my third Hell's Kitchen spatula because I foolishly left my original on a scorching hot skillet too long and the nylon roughened up. I was lazily thinking it was silicone and would take the heat ... but nylon is damaged at lower temperatures.Why do I have multiples of this? Because it is darned near perfect for handling food as I happily saute my veggies, flip my over - medium eggs without wrecking the yolks and turning pancakes at just the right moment in their cooking journey.Like many enthusiastic amateur chefs, I have an armory of spatulas for different cooking adventures. This model is my go - to for 80% of my cooking.And they are at a great price. I love getting top shelf tools at a very good value for my money.I highly recommend this item.

Dependable & useful

But easily burns if left on the pot while cooking and gets extremely hot to the touch

Made well and does what it supposed to do.

It’s a struggle to find spatulas for non-stick pans (at least it is for me). Metal is obviously off the table. Plastic spatulas are firm enough that they do a good job slipping under food, but they tend to melt unless you keep them moving. Silicone spatulas are too flimsy so they don’t have an edge.But these Mercer spatulas are working great. No sign that they are melting and definitely firm enough to slip under eggs and such. Price is great as well. I’ll definitely keep a couple of these on hand.

This spatula is pretty good - I've had this spatula for a couple years now and it sees daily usage. I bought this spatula to use with my All Clad Non-Stick frying pan; for eggs, pancakes, etc. - It also gets machine washed almost everyday.Contrary to some other low rating reviews for this product, my spatula has never melted and currently shows 0 signs of heat damage. The edges are still very flat and it looks like as it did when I first bought it. I can slide under whatever is being cooked with great ease. I've seen a number of reviews where users state that this spatula melted during use - I can't imagine the sheer amount of heat and time that was applied to this spatula to show signs of heat damage. The pans must be scorching hot for this plastic to insta-melt upon contact... I do not believe this to a fault of the product, but instead a fault of the user.With proper usage and care for this product, I believe this spatula will do exactly what you need it to do for many years as it has done for me.

Front edge and ribs bubbled and melted in numerous spots while using to fry eggs. May have left it pressed against pan for a moment too long but still shouldn't have happened.
