I've been using this for almost 15 years almost every day. Tried several other turners since in the under $30 range. Tried fish turners. Blackstone griddle turners. Shorter turners, longer turners. Wider, narrower. I tried plastic & silicone turners. Tried tongs & cooking chopsticks (which are both useful additions, but not my universal go-to tool).I always come back to this one. Flex & thickness are just right. It's stiff enough to hold firm anything you balance on it, but can be flexed down to really slide under stuff on a stainless or carbon steel skillet. It's stiff enough & edged enough to chop chicken, ground beef, broccoli, carrots, etc in the skillet by just pressing the front edge into them. Sometimes you realize a piece is just a bit bigger than you'd like it & this is one of the big advantages of metal spatulas is the ability to adjust piece size in the skillet.Only one I've found I sometimes like more is a 1.8" x 6" which I prefer to use with my grill, but the thickness/length mean that it flexes a bit when a heavy bit of meat is out on the end, so it sometimes falls off if I don't slide underneath far enough. The 2x4" is perfect for a standard 12" skillet, works great for my 10" too. For larger skillet or something big like a Rondeaux, I would look for something longer to keep your fingers & the handle away from the hot edge of the cooking vessel.Just a few years ago, after nearly 10 years of nearly daily use. I took the time to grind down the sides to a dull edge & round out the front corners a little more, sharpen up the front to a true edge, lightly blunt it to reduce scratching, then polish everything smooth again. Took me about 20 minutes on a bench grinder with a 200 grit stone & a buffing wheel. Wish I'd done it years earlier. Makes it even easier to chop & divide with it in the skillet, as well as slide it underneath stuff side to side rather than just thrusting the front under.

Excellent, well made, very durable, this is a replacement for a a turner/spatula I had for 50 years. I think this will last that long

I bought this to replace one with a wooden handle that was aging poorly and also couldn't go in the dish washer. The build quality is fantastic and perfect shape. Wish I'd bought this a while ago.

Hip, hip hooray for an American made kitchen utensil! It is really well made and is the perfect tool for a wide variety of culinary capers. This is my second because I accidentally set fire to my first one (this is such a fantastic utensil, it didn't even create noxious fumes while burning, impressive). I kept using it without most of its handle because even in its injured state, it was still far superior to any other utensil in my possession. My husband eventually felt bad for me (or thought I was pathetic) and ordered me a new one. Though, I still have the old one and use it when the 'good' one is dirty.

If you make Indian dishes like Dosas or Chapatis or really anything flat and floppy on traditional cast-iron pans, you need this thing right now! So much less frustration now that I can properly flip things!My aunt (who lives in India) had a similar turner for the past 25 years, still using it on a weekly basis with a broken handle because she was unable to find similar items in India! So the next time I visited I bought like 10 of these and gifted it to all my Indian relatives. They all now love me, and I now have requests to buy 7 more for their friends!Then handle is built to last. And I can only hope it will give me 25 years of delicious and perfectly turned Dosas.P.S. This thing is great as a scraper to get rid of stuck or burnt-on residue on cast-iron ware.

How strange this turner gets much better reviews than it's big brother - the 3x5 turner. They both have the same design, material, and construction; only a difference in size. Perhaps the larger one influences people to handle it harder, leading to durability issues and the smaller one, being used for more precise, delicate "dainty" chores gets a logically gentler treatment. Anyway...I like mine just fine, it's great for small dishes cooked in my small skillet - single eggs, little breakfast sausage patties, brownie server, and more (that's double speak for "I ran out of things that I can think of saying I use it for").Right now it's priced the same as the bigger one ($13.99) which is not a good deal at all - I got mine for $8.99. Check back when it goes on sale. It's a peach of a little turner.
