Is visually very nice and of good quality. Einzigste small "restriction" is, perhaps, that they are a touch thicker than their plastic "buddies" and thereby a certain exercise needs, especially with the pan lifters until you get the cooking unscathed from the pan. With the spoons this problem is less. But the material is very natural and comfortable to use and taste. Every now and again helps to rub after washing with a little olive oil, to prolong the enjoyment of it.
