First of all my Kudos to Amazon; they have quite a lot of Pinzon products nowadays, and with the exception of one or two disappointments I've always been very happy.
These tools were the perfect addition to the other Pinzon stainless steel tool set I have. I recently purchased new pans and wanted to go a little easier on the pans, not using metal in them).
The set arrives double boxed, the tools are all wrapped together and bundled with a tie-wrap. Handles are nice and heavy with nice silicone non-slip grips.
The spatula and brush are great, but the other 3 tools (spoon, slotted spoon and turner) need a little more attention. The silicone is wrapped around the metal front part of the tool, so sometimes food or food residue get caught under it.
Other than that (in my opinion) minor detail they are great. Nice heavy tools. As usual, keep an eye on the price as they tend to fluctuate quite a lot.

The silicone that covers the tip of one of the cooking ladles peeled off exposing an are in which food gets stuck. I do not know if Pinzon has a lifetime guarantee. I do like these ladles and would simply like a replacement set.

Although initially thrilled with the silicone covered kitchen utensils, I was disappointed when the silicon cracked open on my first spoon, only about 3 months after purchase. Now 7 months into ownership, all 3 items silicone-edged items have been rendered useless - the spoons and the spatula! This product was clearly not field tested long enough. I am a good cook, but probably only cook about 4 - 5 times a week. That is NOT excessive usage! I'm now outraged at the high price I paid for these now useless items. Once the rubber edging cracks open, harmful bacteria move in, but the silicone remains firmly adhered to the surface of the utensils, so you can't even use them without the red edges. I would NEVER recommend this product to anyone.
