Title: Don't believe all the hype!
Review: I was given this set as a birthday gift and my initial thoughts were that this was a great gift. I found out that this set was purchased after reading all the spectacular reviews on Amazon. After using the tools on my grill, I was not impressed with their quality. When I tried to use the tongs to pick up a small sausage, the metal bent at the point where they are reinforced for gripping. I ended up using some oxo tongs which do not bend and are much more comfortable. The knife included in the set is bulky and not well designed. When I used the knife and fork to cut up a rotisserie chicken, the knife was very awkward to use and not very sharp to boot. I do like the basting brush and the fork is pretty good at stabbing meat. While I haven't used the spatula yet, it looks satisfatory to flip burgers. Overall, the case and tools look nice but I wouldn't judge a book by its cover either, and I would be more impressed if the tools were of a higher quality.
Is the review positive or negative?
