KitchenCraft Pastry Blender, Stainless Steel, Essential Baking Accessory for Every Kitchen, Silver

First try with this product due to onset of arthritis and I am very pleased with the outcome. I still have to do a little bit of rubbing in due to the shape of my bowl, but it is a very handy tool.

Great for 'rubbing in' if like me you have hot hands or arthritis. Nice quality and easy to clean- wish I'd bought it years ago.

Bought this for my daughter but she found the grip aggravated her carpal tunnel. Mine has a shaped plastic grip which I found better after I tried this one too - my hand tended to slide on the handle. Effective at the job though.

Super handy gadget to have. Easy to make pastry and also crumble without getting your hands all messy.

To be honest I only usually write a review when I purchase something that is no good and I feel I should warn others against wasting their money. BUT.........This is brilliant!! I was looking for a machine that could rub butter into flour as I hate having messy fingers when I do it by hand. Most articles said a food processor was the answer but one said that a food processor was good but, for a fraction of the cost, this gadget worked perfectly. I looked on Amazon and found it, delighted it was so cheap and decided it was worth the risk of spending £4.99 on something I thought might be totally useless. I was sceptical to say the least but gave it a go. I was thinking, this isn’t going to work when the butter seemed to be clogging the tool but I persisted and realised that the butter unclogged the more I used it. I ended up with perfect “breadcrumbs” and no sticky fingers. It takes about the same time as doing it by hand but you save a little by not having to wash the gunge off your hands afterwards. I washed it in the dishwasher afterwards. Like other reviewers I wish I had bought this years ago.

Best one of these I have had. Makes making pastry a doddle and more hygeinic

Amazing, so easy to use, good quality, good price. Remember to use a knife to remove any excess butter between mixing as the blades are sharp. Would definitely recommend. No more gooey hands.

This is a pastry blender. It's meant to cut in cold butter into four for making flaky and fluffy pastry. Does it do the job? Yes, yes it does! My scones never had the amazing texture I can achieve with this (I have warm hands, so rubbing butter in by hand melts it - this does not). It's dishwasher-safe, so easy to clean, too. The only thing to watch out is that the blades occasionally bend sideways a little, and I've had to straighten them twice (not difficult), which makes me think that the steel it's made of isn't of a very good grade. I suspect there might be a better one somewhere out there, but since this one does the job, I'm not going to look for another unless it should break - which it hasn't, yet. On the other hand, I generally cut cold, refrigerated butter in, not frozen as is recommended for some fancier pastry recipes - being a bit soft, it might not be suitable for frozen butter.

acquistato per fare gli scones ed altri prodotti analoghi che prevedano l'uso di farina e burro a pezzetti. Molto utile, si impasta velocemente e non ci si appiccica le mani inutilmente. Probabilmente scomodo per impastare a lungo, per questo tipo di dolci perfetto

Produit très correct qui fait le job attendu. Je recommande

Works as expected

Exactly what I was looking for, works really well.

Kneading in bowl was getting harder so this is perfect to mash or knead ingredients together
