Summary: 4 Stars
It might seem rather odd at first to buy something like a spatula online. But something like the Oxo here is a rare find in stores in most locales. This is the type of tool that one may tend to feel is not worth it at first for it appears to have such a narrow field of functionality. But it is truly useful for a lot of different cooking chores. It is much wider than the usual spatula and easily handles the obvious like pancakes and omelets with ease. However what I have also found it to be very useful for is for all the sautéing that folks that love to cook do. Its very useful in scooping and turning things like fried onions, peppers, mushrooms, bacon, and even when browning meat. Although others here have mentioned it being a little big for such chores, I found it much easier to handle and convenient as opposed to a regular spatulas when dealing with a lot of fixens in a big frying pan. Get used to it and its one or two turns tops and your food is uniformly turned and sizzling. I particularly found this spatula handy on camping trips, where the flexible handle makes it much easier to handle things like beans and bacon over a frying pan that is at an odd or inconvenient angle. (You cook most meals on a camping trip bent at the knees). Finally, so far for me this spatula has truly been a non stick one. (I have had one for almost a year now). Nothing clings to it, and it is a cinch to keep clean. I like this spatula and find it far more versatile than for just pancakes.
I have taken one star off, for the other reviewers here that have mentioned the metal flex part being a little on the short side are correct. You have to be careful with this spatula if you're one to lay it in the frying pan on occasion. The manufacturer was not really thinking of that convenience when designing it unfortunately. However over all I feel this spatula is a very worthwhile investment at a very fair price, and I highly recommend it...

This is a great flipper. I bought it, along with 2 others of different sizes, when offered a discount. It's definitely too big for everyday use (i.e. grilled cheese sandwiches, burgers, fish, etc.) but if you're big on pancakes or crepes, this is the perfect tool! I love silicone flippers too, because even if you leave them leaning in the pan, they won't melt, and the end doesn't get grungy with the remnants of whatever you've cooked.
