Best Manufacturers Inc. 12-BSWR Whisks, Inch, Red Wood Handle

Strong enough to blend things you would usually use a mixer on!

I like to buy USA when possible. We’ve had this whisk for several months and it’s holding up great.

This whip is well made and sturdy. It is just the right size to use in medium to large bowls. I recently used it to mix a batter in an 18-in bowl and it worked great; the wires held firm. It also whips egg whites with no problem. Thus far, I have used it to beat 12 egg whites at one time and it incorporated significant volume very quickly and with minimum effort. I also used it to fold the egg whites into a batter and it did the job without faltering. Need to whisk up 2 dozen eggs for a Sunday brunch, well, this is the perfect tool. I also used it for mixing gravy; I find that it distributes the spices more quickly than a spoon. It is perfect for making Sabayon and Hollandaise Sauce. The wires are secured into the handle with some type of hard silicone or silicone-like substance, so it would seem unlikely that they will become dislodged. It can washed by hand or in the dishwasher. It's lightweight and handles easily. I have a size 8 woman's hand and it fits just right. I really like it.

I am super picky on the product I am using in my kitchen not only I avoid anything made in China period, but the color story has to be the same as my original plan when I first starting to build my little city apartment kitchen aka red & natural other than the silver and black tone due to the metal.Therefore, in the recent years, it's getting harder and harder to find kitchen gadget that's made in U.S.A.Tho it took me a while to find this whisk, it was totally worth the time and energy.Because this is a great product, not to mention the great customer service experience I have with Best Manufacturers' customer service agent.The agent not only helps me solved my issue with the product but also provided me great advice on all the extra questions I have for them.

I'm an All-Clad kinda gal. Some women collect dolls others go nuts over diamonds ... I get weak in the knees for All-Clad. Crazy, but true. Made in the USA, top quality, lifetime guarantee, etc. Imagine my disappointment upon discovering their utensils have been outsourced to China. Recently, I was searching for whisks/whips made in the USA. Not an easy task these days. I discovered Best Manufacturers' whips/whisks are made in the States. The great reviews along with the fact they're produced domestically clinched it. I purchased 2 different sizes. Love them. The handles are comfortable. They clean-up very well whether washing by hand or in the dishwasher. No rust, streaks or weird dark spots. The ring-less design was an issue for me because I hang all my cookware. Frees up so much room in my kitchen. My solution, though some may think it's quirky, is to hang these whips right-side-up. I'm able to hang up to 3 on one hook. Hope this helps anyone out there that likes to hang their cookware on hooks/pot racks.

The wooden handle is great and the whisk is perfect sized. I really love this. I needed a bigger one as I've made due with a very small one for years. Why I have no idea. I don't whisk much I guess. But this one is beautiful and well made. I'm very happy with it.

A bit of copper leaching into the egg whites makes them keep their shape longer, hence the recommendation for copper bowls. Since it seems there are only two companies on the planet that sell regular copper mixing bowls and one of them goes for nearly $100, I was hoping to get the same benefit that copper gives to egg whites by using a whisk with copper tines.At least to my eyes, it looked like the tines as well as the handle of the whisk were made of copper, or at least copper coated. That is most definitely not the case: the handle is copper, but the tines look to be normal steel.Besides that disappointment, the whisk really is nothing special: it's a bit on the heavy side, so it's tiring to use. The tines are also very thick. And most surprisingly of all, it has about as many of them as my current whisk, an old Ikea model I bought for $5 about a decade ago. Side by side, one doesn't whip whites better than the other.Furthermore, after a single wash the handle has already started to tarnish. That might be a deal-breaker for some.

This balloon whip is exactly what I wanted. Good design, wood handle, good craftsmanship, and made right here in the good-old USA.Call me paranoid, but I do not trust kitchen utensils made in countries that are known for poor workers' rights, reckless environmental destruction, lackluster safety standards, widespread industrial malfeasance (i.e. melamine-laced infant formula), non-existent government accountability, etc.So I've searched everywhere I could, both online and in nearby retail stores for my utensils. As far ask whisks/ whips go, these are the best I've yet seen, regardless of country of manufacture. They are comfortable to use, and seem like they will hold up over time.It just so happens they are made here by a company based in Oregon. Thus, I would look no further. I currently have the 8-inch and 12-inch versions, and would like to eventually get them all. Both have performed superbly in my kitchen.

It’s chipped in the bag. I bought it because it was pink and the pink is already chipped and destroyed. No sealant? Not impressed.

SUPERB quality. These are the only whips I'd ever consider buying again
