Wimpy Whisk,
December 29, 2000 Michela (Seattle, WA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calphalon Nylon Balloon Whisk (Kitchen)
The Calphalon Nylon Balloon Whisk works okay if you have to smooth out a sauce that is cooking in a nonstick pot. However, the 12-inch size is not the best for whipping egg whites. I use a 14-inch French Balloon wire whisk and an unlined copper bowl for this purpose. I like the looks of all the black Calphalon nylon utensils and keep them in a tall crock near my stove. This utensil is not used very often, so I would buy the others first (the flat nylon whisk does work for scrambling eggs in a nonstick pan though).

This item is nice but Ive had better.I know a wisk should be
somewhat flexable.However for mixing large batches of cake batter and or even a smaller size by hand.This item is extremly to flexable and messy.Its handle is hard to grip on to aswell.I would not buy this item again.

Can't handle the heat,

Before I go on, let me say I have lots of Calphalon products and only have had a disappointment in this utensil and the Pasta fork. Same reason on both, they are wimpy & overheat, not as in getting to hot to handle, but they become to weak to use. They do not hold up well under heat. The whisk is also not very sturdy where it need to be, at the bottom of the handle so you have support and a better grasp to beat your eggs, or whatever. I went out and bought a different one.
