Amco 5 Piece Stainless Steel Cooking Utensil Set - Durable Kitchen Gadgets - Metal Kitchen Accessories - Easy to Clean Kitchen Tools

I purchased these for my son as part of a graduation gift from college. Being a college student he cooks a lot at home and he loves these utensils. I wasn't so sure about ordering these after reading a couple of the negative reviews. Some of the negative reviews said they were very thin and bent easily. These will last you a long time. I am very pleased with these utensils and would recommend them to anyone who has been wanting to switch from the cheap and toxic plastic sets but can't afford the 15 for stainless steel utensils you typically see them for. They are somewhat thin, but much better than the big box store quality.If you want something cheap but utilitarian then this utensil set is for you. It isn't particularly heavy, but it is heavy enough that it doesn't bend easily. I wash these a few times a week in the dishwasher, and no rust or spotting problems so far. I like that there is a hole on the top for hanging them also. These aren't the highest quality, but overall, especially at this price, they are good utensils and I would buy them again.

In the past I've just purchased the cheap cooking utensil's from Walmart or Family Dollar. It is true that you get what you pay for. In this case I got a really good deal on this set. I'm not a professional cook, but after my kids melting most of my plastic cooking utensil's I knew I needed something that was better quality. I am not disappointed with my purchase at all! I had read some people putting down that these were flimsy. I beg to differ!!! My other, cheaper, cooking utensil's that were supposed to be stainless steel rusted. Again, you get what you pay for. These utensil's are very durable, as my son tested it with his strength, and could not bend them, not even the handle, and he's strong! I like that the utensil's have a longer handle on them, so you aren't so close to what you're cooking and inadvertently burn your hand. I'm looking forward to using each one of these, because I finally feel I've got something that will last me a long time, and that these will survive my kids for a change! I HIGHLY recommend these utensil's!

This is a really nice set of quality utensils. I have no complaints about the item itself -they arrived undamaged, clean, shiny, and you really can't beat the price. My only negative is they arrived (with other items I ordered) just in a plastic bag and held together by tape or a twisty tie or something similar. Each utensil was individually wrapped in plastic as well (within this larger bag) to prevent scratching or damage.I am glad about that part, however this was intended to be a Christmas gift for my Mom, so I had to find another box and wrap it up as such and not make it look like I just randomly found these and created a set myself. Its really not a big deal, but don't expect it to arrive in a box - instead, expect it to be thrown in there with the other Amazon items you order LOL. Overall, the item itself is of good quality and she really loved them when she opened them.

good quality

When I read some concerns about thickness, I was reluctant to order them. They're far thicker than I anticipated. No, they don't have "high school cafeteria" heft, but they're thicker than the metal on most non-commercial kitchen utensils. Characterizing them as mid-grade commercial would be about right. They feel good. They're a tiny bit rough where they were cut from stamped metal and the "finish" on them is probably a 7 out of 10, but I paid about $10 for them. I went to a large box retailer and utensils like these, perhaps a little thinner, start off at $5 each. This is a spectacular bargain. And they look good in the utensil jar that sits on the counter next to the stove. Very pleased with this purchase. I'd say you get more than your money's worth with this purchase. Weary of nylon and plastic melting on my other utensils, I propped these up with a set of bamboo utensils for non-stick cookware. I have no complaints.

Decent products for the price. However, I don't anticipate a long life from these utensils. I have used them a few times and you have to hold them just above the spoon/spatula area on the handle or they bend when breaking up food. It is not a severe bend, but enough to be dangerous when dealing with hot foods. These are better suited for simple stirring, flipping, and ladling. If you cook a lot of semi-frozen foods or like to break food items into smaller pieces while cooking, this is not what you're looking for. However, they are quite suitable for other purposes.

The Amco Stainless Steel Utensil set is a wonderful addition to our home and concession stand. They come with a latch to keep the set together and also hook onto a wall mount, which is not included. They are a perfect size and are very sturdy. I have customarily purchased cheap products at my local department store. Although the price was cheap, the product is great. They are a good value for the small cost. I plan to have these utensils for a long time. I would recommend these utensils from Amco to the casual and professional cooks. They are great for serving, straining and stirring.

They start peeling as soon as they touch heat. I was cooking and trying to figure out what was in my food and it was a piece of the coating. They also peeled more once in the dishwasher.

I decided to throw away all my plastics kitchen supplies and replace them with better choices. I have these for a few months now and still in very good condition.

Love these long handled babies... Light weight and sturdy enough for most camping expeditions... Back side of slotted spoons a little rough and edges of utensils a bit sharp due to manufacturing punching technique but a minute of sanding with 400 grit will makes these perfect... Excellent product for an excellent price

I would not pay the price I paid for these spoons. The quality is not very great. The middle part of the spoons is extremely thin making it difficult to mix or store heavy items in a pot. I am holding the spoon closer to the base afraid that I might break this spoon in half. Will definately not recommend this product!

these are thinner than i expected. they work ok, but they are not strong as i expect a steel spoon set to be, easily bent with regular use. not recommended.

I got what I had paid for. Hope it will last.
