RösleStainless Steel Basting Spoon, 12.4-inch

This was the most expensive cooking spoon I have ever purchased... and it was worth every penny! I used to wonder why mechanics would pay more for one Snap-On or Matco open end wrench than you could pay for an entire set of Craftsman wrenches, until I used one. There is a difference, and the difference is worth it if you are going to use the tool every day. This spoon is like that. I only wish the handle were about 1-1/2 inch longer. Otherwise, it's perfect. Thing as simple as the rolled edges of the handle, the spline to stiffen it, the angle of the head all show that a lot of attention went into the design. Thank you!!

Ok, so I might not be the BEST person to review this item...1. I LOVE kitchen gadgets & have for over 40 years....2. I LOVE miniature things!3. I LOVE professional quality tools, too.These little guys (I purchased two) are not only adorable, but very high-quality, professional-quality spoons. They look just like the full size slotted spoons you buy for serving. I couldn't be happier.We aren't using them to scoop or retrieve olives, but no doubt they would be perfect/excellent for that purpose.We are using them to mix coconut oil into our morning coffee. I was using a spring-style honey server to scoop & mix the solid coconut oil, but it was too hard for the spring to penetrate the solid coconut oil without destroying the little spring over time (we keep the house pretty cold!). I saw these olive spoons while shopping for olive spoons to use to retrieve "decorative glass stones" out of the fish tank without disturbing the little plants in my underwater garden (just plants, no fish).Overall, well worth the $15.00!

haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but well constructed compared to all my other Rosle tools, which I noticed yesterday is my handle of choice amongst my different handles. I love the sturdiness. I wash it in the dishwasher. I'm on the fence why all these pasta spoons always have a hole in the middle. and btw, I feel that every household could use a pasta spoon. there is no other way to pick up mixed pasta!! and you all know it's extra yummy to mix your pasta with your sauce to finish off cooking the pasta because it gets all up in there, right?

It’s not worth the money! For 30$ I was expecting something truly outstanding. It’s not much better than the one you get from IKEA for 2$ ( as a whole set bundle for 7.50$)

not made in Germany. "Made in China" sticker. Highly overpriced in that case.

This spoon is designed to get olive out of a skinny jar and deliver them to a Martini glass. It works well, but so would other spoons or picks, but not so elegantly! It’s a very nicely designed spoon and compliments my other Rösle barware.

The description of the product is wrong, this product was Made in China. They used to been made in Germany before production was shipped to China, like so many other things. In fact, you're going to be hard pressed finding one of these that isn't made in China. :\ It's still a very nice ladle, it feels good in the hand, though a bit overpriced for being of Chinese origin.

This spaghetti ladle doesn't work well with linguine or fettuccine - the end is a little small. It would be improved if it were more oval and larger. I hoped it would work for all long-stringy pasta, not just spaghetti.

What a marvellous little thing that deals with the First World Problem of getting your olives out of the jar easily! The design is perfect, with the angle of the spoon head and its concave shape allowing you to easily fish out 1 or 2 olives at a time. I used to use a fork and have the olive jar at an angle which led to occasional messes and frustrating olive slippage back into the jar more often than not.

We have a large collection of Rosle 'round handle' utensils. All are well constructed and pleasingly weighty in the hand.Whist this 'Honey spoon' is lovely to look at and hold, the hanging loop is much smaller and the barrel narrower than most other Rosle utensils! Consequently the 'Honey spoon' looks out of place next to anything but the 'Gourmet thermometer', the 'Crepes spreader' and the 'Butter spatula'.If you - or your gift recipient - would notice and be irritated by just such a design discrepancy, consider a different Rosle utensil.

Fabulous quality - Highly recommend

Love this stuff
