No more cheap crappy one like you get at the store. However when I compare them to the cheap crappy one that bend when using which you can get from supermarket these are the best I ever have.My first impression however was DAMN THEY ARE BIG :P They are big very big and built like a tank. I have no water issues getiing in the handle.The only issue I would say is that the handles are heavy.
This stuff is sturdy, dishwasher safe, and a great set for any cook. ;) Kitchenaid is the best of the best. Plus, you just can't go wrong with Empire Red.
The handles are heavier than the bottom part so you can't leave the spoon or spatula resting in the pot on the stove, it'll just flip out, unless you have really tall pots and pans. I have never had a problem with water getting into the handle. I own alot of these KitchenAid red utensils and my only complaint is that they are too big. Andre the Giant might enjoy using these, but I tend to reach for my other smaller spoons and turners before I use one of these.
Anyway, love my KitchenAid utensils and if something happens to any of them, I WILL purchase the same thing again. Yes the handles are large and heavy, but I prefer that to something that is going to break with the use and abuse mine see. I wash them on the top rack of my dishwasher and I have never had water issues in the handle. It's not that big of a deal. I have read through a few of the reviews and I really like my set. I have had mine for well over a year and I use at least one EVERY day. For those picky people, when using a shallow dish/pot, just flip the spoon over, leaning the spoon into the dish/pot with the handle resting on the table/shelf.
Food (especially eggs) stick and even worse, these tools are handle heavy so they easily fall out of a skillet making a mess.
