Negative Positive
Title: Why is this so highly rated?
Review: I bought this spatula based on all the positive reviews here. Later, I found that Cook's Illustrated gave this their *lowest* rating, putting it last among a large number of spatulas. Unfortunately, that's where it belongs.This is almost useless for actual cooking, although I guess it's ok if all you're doing is flipping a fried egg or something. The material is quite soft, meaning you can't scrape the sides of a bowl. Certainly if you're working with a stiff dough you won't get enough leverage. There's a piece of metal inside meant to give the Switchit some rigidity, but it doesn't extend far enough.The gimmick of having two ends to work with turns out not to be that useful--flip the spatula over and you've got whatever you were just stirring now running over your hand.
