I am a great fan of this spatula. I've owned plenty of spatulas in my time, with nylon heads or silicone heads, but nothing quite like this one. Have you ever pulled the handle out of a spatula head and seen all the blackish crap that grows in there? No risk of biological overgrowth with this smoothly contoured bundle of wonderfulness. With all the benefits of silicone (heat resistance, non-stick, flexible) and none of the bio-risk, I'm sold. I've bought three already and plan to invest in more.

I have the green version which the photo show as a bright neon green. The actual color is more mute, but not quite olive (which I actually prefer see photo).

I had gotten tired of all the spatulas I had getting gunk around the wooden handle, or the handle eventually falling out. This Orka spatula was the perfect solution! I have two and have been extremely pleased with them.

Honest reviews on Mastrad All Silicone Spatula

Haven't had it long, but love it so far. I've long hated the fact that spatulas trap gunk inside the handle slot, and there's not much you can do about it, short of dis-assembly, and gunk retrieval with a knife, which shortens the life of the spatula quite a bit, and makes them trap even more next time.

This ends all that, and it works well as a spatula, to boot! I've run it through the dishwasher several times, and it comes out well every time, with no film, as I get on some cheaper spatulas I've had. LOVE the silicon, since I can now use it for flipping eggs, and stirring soups, etc on the Teflon pans.

I've agreed with some who wished for a longer handle, right up til I put them in the dishwasher, when I was glad for the length they are, as any longer, and they won't fit in my silverware slots, or my drawer, for that matter. Also love the slim handle, as many spatulas take up too much room in the dishwasher with their fat handles. This one's perfect.

I got two, one skinny, and one standard size, and both are flexible enough to scrape, but not too flimsy to stir. Good texture, good strength, and good length for me. If they hold up over time, I'll be handing them out for Christmas gifts next year.

UPDATE: 3 months later: I still love all the things I said about it, but the one negative is the smell/taste. I'd hoped that would ease up after a while, but it really hasn't. It's not an overwhelming smell, but it is there, and it affects the taste of foods when you are trying to taste test. I don't think it's imparting anything to the actual food, but if you lick the spatula to taste your sauces, you will taste the spatula more than you want to. I've had to go back to tasting from a spoon, and just use the spatula for stirring. I also don't leave it in the food just stir, and remove. Too bad. It would be PERFECT if not for the taste/smell.

I cook and bake. A lot. Everyday, multiple times a day and this spatula is perfect. One piece, so nothing comes apart, silicone so nothing leeches into our food, soft enough so that it can get into crevices, but firm enough that it can do some heavy duty doughs. This will be my present to any baker or for any wedding shower!
