GEEKHOM Bamboo Spatulas for Nonstick Cookware, 13 Inch Wooden Kitchen Utensils, 2 Pack Wooden Spatula for Cooking, Slotted Wok Turners, Flipper for Pancake, Fish, Egg

The description clearly mentions these wooden utensils are made from 100% teak. They arrived and I opened the packaging only to find that they're actually bamboo. Bamboo is a terrible wood for anything bigger than a small disposable object I.E a toothpick or picnic cutlery set that wears down fast and doesn't hold form under duress - it's like pine, cheap and fast growing, but even worse.Classic bait and switch, and I fell for it. A quick skim over the description, had I read down the full page or looked at other user reviews I would have seen the item used to be made from 100% teak but at some point got swapped out for bamboo and the upper part of the page wasn't changed to reflect that.Annoying, but too much hassle to send them back for a refund. I guess I'll throw them in someones stocking for next Christmas.Watch out if you're looking for something made of teak!

Very robust and well designed. Ideal for using when cooking in non-stick pans. Clean very easily. Hold up well in dishwasher. Do not crack or warp like other products. Definitely would recommend.

The first question in the review section asked if these spatulas were lacquered. The reply was no, they were not. Well, yes, they are. These two spatulas are sturdy, nice looking and have nice handles. However, without being able to know what kind of lacquer was used to coat them and over time would end up in our food, I took my orbital sander to them. In about 10 -15 minutes, the areas most likely to be in contact with food no longer have the glossy shine. If ingesting lacquer doesn't bother you or you can sand it off, these are nice spatulas.

This spatula set has become the favorites in our house. Works so well with our cookwear plus they have a nice weight and size to them. The leading edge of both have a nice bevel to it, perfect for scraping and flipping. The only criticism I can give is very minor and it’s that the slotted one is sometimes a little harder to clean after using with certain foods… nothing unusual for a slotted utensil.Hope this is a helpful review for your purchase decisions.

As others have stated, there is a layer of something covering the bamboo (lacquer?), so this is not 100% bamboo. It is easily sanded off. Hopefully nothing toxic.My slotted turner: 1) had a different profile than the non-slotted, not nearly as thin on the “working” edge so not useful as a turner, and 2) was chipped on the front edge … obviously not during shipping as the damaged area was lacquered over. Had to tune this up on a belt sander before use.Now basically happy with them, assuming they’ll last awhile, but shouldn’t have had to invest time in rendering the products fit for use.
