I was lucky to find this that is long enough, sturdy and the correct angle for me. I will be buying a couple more so they will last the rest of my life time. You dont know how long I have been shopping to find a good one.

This ladle is actually very nice looking. The metal of the handle actually has a brushed metal look that adds a bit of extra class to it. Although some reviewers mentioned it was too shallow, I've found that it's a perfect depth. I've been able to ladle soups and sauces with it without any issues. In fact, I'm very pleased.

This is a nice sturdy stainless steel ladle. I like to use it when I don't need a longer handle ladle.

Just what I needed for cooking new lodge cast iron pan. Handle edges are NOT sharp! Squashed my hand tight as I could around the handle no problem.

Exceptionally amazing. Still look like new while I've been using it with high heat stir fry for over 6 months. Light yet strong and the size is just perfect

The size is perfect for a single serving of soup. I know it will last my lifetime and someone else's. Easy to clean, but do NOT put in dishwasher. The dishwasher detergent will destroy the shiny finish and might pit the metal. The handle is easy to grip.

This does everything I wanted it to do and looks great while doing it. Clean-up is a breeze due to the clean lines and stainless steel. Hefty weight makes it feel solid and like it's made out of quality materials.

Surprise! A stainless steel kitchen tool that actually FEELS like an old fashioned ladle my mom had. It actually has weight. I love it and am planning on getting one for my daughter.

I wanted a metal ladle to use with my iron skillets. This one has a long enough handle, looks very nice and is sturdy. It fits in my hand nicely.

I agree this is heavier than expected. it's simple, easy to hold and the handle isn't so long that you have trouble ladling with tall pots and an overhead vent above. well priced for a good tool.

This is a very nice ladle and I use it to poach eggs in. Pop an egg in it and just hold it in boiling water for a minute and I have a perfect poached egg. Hardly any clean up.

This is one great sturdy ladle! Like any stainless product, it's constructed of solid and heavy stainless so it handles heavy soup or stew items without any bending or flexing in the stem. Also, because the bowl of the ladle is the larger of the two sizes available, it makes scooping portions quick and easy. Best of all, it's dishwasher safe!!

I like shiny things, and this ladle is really shiny. People comment about how nice it looks. It's easy to clean. What more to say?

Well worth the money it is very sturdy they don't bend, I also bought the slotted spoon, and the slotted spatula and the are better than untensils I paid much more money for.

This spoon is exactly what we needed. It is a much thicker spoon than expected for the price. I'm thinking about looking for a shorter one as a serving spoon.

This is a tool for both women and men! I went to my son's apartment one Sunday for Football, Spaghetti, and Fun. In the midst of having to dip up the sauce he handed me a mid-sized spoon and said...Mom, I need a ladle.

Well, I wanted a large ladle to serve the various soups I make and this ladle definitely fits the bill. It is little larger than I envisioned it from the photograph but - you know what? It works perfectly and will last me a lifetime. It will encourage me to make more soups!

This was a Christmas gift for my wife. She likes it. The right size for serving soup or chili. It is constructed of a single piece of metal, no spot welds. The handle could be a bit thicker, but it serves it's purpose. Good quality stainless steel from what I can see. Would purchase again.

I've been very pleased with this ladle. It's a beautifully constructed from one piece of metal and looks great with any decor. The bowl is deep enough that you don't have to be scooping and scooping to fill up a bowl/cup.

Very large ladle which is hard to find, handle is not as thick as I thought it would be but I don't think it well bend. The edge of the ladle is not sharp like others as it has a little rolled edge to be smooth. I bought 2, I'm happy with my purchase and the price was reasonable.
