Rosle Stainless Steel & Silicone Flexible Spatula, 8-inch,White

Update: So I wrote this review because they were on my mind, setting out to replace my 1-inch width spatulas. And discovered the narrow 10-inch size is discontinued in the U.S. For anyone who simply *must* have that size (and I do use the others, but that is by far the best one to play nicely with my mixer, per below) the product number is 12475, if you want to try and find it. Amazon UK did have a decent price - at least in the outrageous quantities I just ordered to justify the shipping. Grumble gripe.------I discovered these in a specialty cooking shop in Europe several years ago, and I was absolutely delighted by how well they scrape. I was really bummed when the edges started to get nicks in them a few years later, because I don't exactly get to Europe often, sadly. Silicon clearly has its advantages, but being able to actually scrape something off the side of the bowl instead of smear it across that side virtually disappeared from almost all spatulas along with rubber. Not so with these - they scrape really well. The edges are as sharp as the old rubber ones and quite flexible on one side, making them perfect for scraping batters along the curved edges of a bowl. When my first set wore out, I went on a search for something that also had a nice sharper edge for scraping. We frankly threw a bunch away. We did find a couple that we have kept from Sur La Tab, which are also decent thinness to the "blade" but have heads that are more curved. I find this more traditional shape more functional. (Maybe because I did grow up with the basic Rubbermaid spatulas and these are closer what I’m used to – but probably because the straight edge fit along the sides of mixing bowls better.) I finally tracked these down to Amazon (Yeah Amazon!)I don't use these for stovetop cooking, I use these for scraping bowls when making, e.g., cake. To be fair, that is probably because these are relatively expensive so I’d rather preserve them for scraping (which I can’t seem to do with anything else) and leave the stirring to the bazillion other tools that can do that well. (I do use the Sur La Tab ones for stovetop, though, and they are pretty good for things like eggs where you may want to scrape the pan.) One side is very flexible and bendy, the other is much stiffer, so if you did want to stir/cook with these the stiffer side would be fine. Now that I think about it, probably if I had the 12.4 inch length of the wider blade I’d cook with it more… (The Sur La Tab ones are longer.)On to sizes…. These come in both a 2-inch wide blade and and 1-inch wide blade. The 1-inch comes in 8 and 10 inch lengths, the 2-inch wide comes in 10 and 12.4 inch lengths. I have both the 1-inch lengths and the 10-inch length for the wider one. My favorite seems to be the 10-inch narrow blade, because I have a KitchenAid mixer and that one fits best around the annoying protrusion in the bottom of the bowl and the longer length makes it easier to reach into that deep bowl.On quality / durability: I’ve been using these roughly ~10 years. I replaced this wider blade for the first time from Amazon in 2013 (so, four years and counting.) Those are still in great shape so while this sort of spatula never lasts forever, they are relatively durable. As I mentioned, I use the narrow ones more, and those are up for replacement for the second time now. I have only purchased them in white and I’ve never had trouble with staining – they are still white. The heads have always remained firmly attached to the body and I’ve never had issues with rust (and I live in a hot, humid area.) The only thing that doesn’t seem to last forever is that nicks do develop in the heads over time – maybe if I weren’t too lazy to hand wash these that would be less of an issue. Definitely keep them away from your knives.

This is the perfect spatula for scraping out the last of the peanut butter, jam, or mayo left in the jar. It fits into narrow jam jars very well. Great product! High quality! Much appreciated! Roslë makes good spatulas!

Purchased Rosle silicone spatulas in sizes 12-inch, 10-inch, and 8-inch. See images for details on size. The 10-inch is the average size people normally use. The 12-inch is extra large, and the 8-inch is for getting things out of jars and small places. I have used this brand for over 20+ years and my current 20-yr-old 10-inch spatulas work perfectly, the silicone has never stained (even from tomato sauce), the handles are still sturdy, and they have only a few tiny chips off the edge of the silicone. The silicone does not hold any food smells either. I have soaked my spatula in the sink, in dishwater that had bleach in it, overnight, and it never rusted, never degraded the silicone or handle. The 8-inch tag indicates Made In China, the 10-inch and 12-inch tags do not indicate a Made In country, therefore I'm assuming Made in Germany. The dual metal handle is very sturdy and comfortable. These are my favorite spatulas. I like the feel of them in the hand, better than round handles, or any others I've tried.

I am very pleased with this set of spatula. I needed some in this smaller size for scraping out things from my food processor and ninja mixer/blender. These work perfectly for those jobs and are great for my kids to use if they are helping in the kitchen as well. I love that they have not gotten stained or taken on and food odors so far...hoping this will continue. They have held up great in the dishwasher so far as well. Really great quality!I will be ordering this in larger sizes soon.

This spatula is great for those with small hands and when making small amounts of sauces or dressings. The edge of the spatula did a perfect job of cleaning my bowl as I was mixing, in fact I was able to make my glass mixing bowl look clean while mixing up a red-pepper sauce!It is, however, surprisingly small and really intended for low quantity jobs for these it does work very well.The handle is a little annoying when put into a utensil bucket as it tends to catch on things like cooking chopsticks or other non-spoon utensils - it would do better on a hook. The handle is the only reason I'm taking off a star.

I luv my Rolse white spatula which compliments my black spatula that I already have...

We bought the first one 4 years ago, use it daily and run it through the dishwasher on the top rack. It is flexible and works well. The metal handle is sealed into the spatula so it stays sanitary. It finally wore out, so this one was the replacement. Saw a meme that said you know you are old when you have a favorite spatula. This one is mine!

I have nearly 10 spatulas: silicone and wood...this ones are silicone and metal, I think stainless steel.Very comfortable to use, occupy very little space for storage and dishwasher friendly....I highly recommend it.
