Excellent Product
By NuJoi
Update 8/25/07: I love this so much that I bought a second one! Now I have one for baking and another for everything else. When I cook big meals, I tire of having to rewash it.

This is my second bench scraper. The first was a single sheet of metal that curved to form a handle. The measurements were painted on it. I probably paid $3 for it. After repeated use and trips to the diswasher, the measurements began to wear off and the bottom started to get uneven.

I am so thankful for this version by OXO! There's the obvious sturdy handle, but what I love the most is that the measurements are etched instead of painted. I have to have the measurements because I use bench scrapers to measure the thicknes of dough in addition to cutting product (you'll never cut brownies or bars again with a knife) and cleaning the board. This product is a lot heavier than my previous version and I like the weighty feel.

Dishwasher safe.

It slices, it dices... it scrapes!
By Stefohnee
Yes, it's good at what it does: scraping. As an added bonus, there are measurements on the scraper in case you really need to get precise with the dough you're scraping off the counter. This thing does a great job of cleaning up the countertop after kneading bread and getting flour all over the place. So it really does do more than scraping: you can use it to divide dough, clean gunk off the counter, release sticky dough from a smooth countertop, measuring something that's less than 4" long, fight ninjas, etc.

OXO-- Great Designs With Comfort In Mind
By A Customer
I am a huge fan of OXO International's kitchen, tool, and garden products. Their comfort factor is amazing, and it's all in the *grip*. I discovered this company through my 87-year-old father-in-law who continues to create delicious Ukrainian and Slav dishes. Awarded the Tylenol Arthritic Award, these designs assist in his staying happy and active.

Adding this first-rate pastry scraper to his OXO collection was heaven sent, for Pop announced that *we*--the entire family--would be making meat and cheese stuffed pirogues (small pastry ravioli) AND square sugar cookies, for his entire gardening club!

For large pastry tasks, (that was fun by the way), or just dicing onions for goulash, this scraper gets the job done. The sharp edged steel blade, comfy large handle, nifty increment marker, incredible durability, and being dishwasher safe all add up to a simple comment--"What did I ever do without this!" Note: due to blade sharpness, choose a suitable cutting surface and watch young ones carefully.

Another versatile OXO product at a bargain price.
