Title: Poorer quality than most Pampered Chef products
Review: While I've been happy with other Pampered Chef products, there are better pastry blenders out there.The problem with this one is the tine blades bend, so it's hard to cut butter mixtures into fine pieces.The stainless steel is nice, there have been no problems with rusting, although the handle isn't particularly comfortable to use (and I have small hands).Long ago I owned another garage-sale pastry blender that didn't have this problem. Unfortunately, the red paint on the old wooden handle flaked off so I got rid of it. Wish I would have sanded down the handle and kept it now!Pampered Chef needs to work on this design. Their products aren't inexpensive so it makes me think twice about buying other products from the company, especially since it seems it would be a hassle to try to return anything. That's unfortunate, because I'm sure the people who count on income from Pampered Chef are having a hard enough time booking parties in the current economy.
