In his campaign for accessible, delicious food, Mario Batali is one of the most popular chefs and restaurateurs in the world. Created by Copco and inspired by Batali, the Italian Kitchen line of cookware and tools reflects the famous chef's philosophy that great food needs no gimmicks. Durable, versatile, and high quality, the collection is perfect for the active home chef. A clever update on a kitchen staple, this measuring spoon set features dual-sided spoons for twice the measuring power. Crafted from melamine, the spoons are durable, comfortable, and clearly marked inside the bowls. For storage tidiness, they feature magnetic handles so they nest together in the drawer. Dishwasher-safe, the spoons are available in several chic colors. --Emily Bedard

 Disappointed... August 5, 2008
HNW (Pennsylvania)
I purchased these over a year ago. After a few months, one of them broke in half at the weak point where the magnet is located while I was washing it. Since then, another one has broken. It starts with a crack and then 'POP', one becomes two! The only positives that I can give are the persimmon color and that there is the 2 Tablespoon measurement. I still use the broken pieces, but it would have been nice if they had stayed whole. They just aren't very sturdy.
 Functional and handy! July 6, 2008

I've had these for a few months now and love them. They have magnets in the handles to hold them together as a set and there is a 2 tablespoon measure that comes in really handy. My only grip is that there seems to be a weak point in the handles where the magnets are placed and they could crack there. Other that that, they're great.
The magnets are great! March 25, 2008

I recently purchased the Batali measuring spoons so I would have an extra set since I use them constantly. The persimmon color is great and I love that they're magnetized. My only complaint is that I'd like them to be a bit sturdier. My metal set is indestructible but I am more careful with these since they're plastic. I would definitely recommend the Batali measuring spoons - especially if you own other pieces in the persimmon color.
 Great idea!! January 15, 2008

These measuring spoons are wonderful!! No more digging through my drawer looking for a particular spoon; they're all right there. The only disadvantage is that there is no 1/2 tbsp. Highly recommended!!
 a novel idea, but... February 6, 2007

Initially I thought that nesting magnetic measuring spoons would be a very practical idea. Unfortunately, these spoons are designed with the tiny magnets embedded in the back of the handles, concealed with a thin disc of plastic. Within a week I found one of the magnets on the floor of my kitchen...the disc had dislodged and is now lost, and I fear the other spoons will suffer the same fate. Also, if your kitchen drawer is as cluttered as mine, you may find that the magnets are not quite strong enough to hold the spoons together when jostled about with the other items in the drawer.
On a positive note, I do like the fact that the spoons are lightweight (but I question durability), I like the color, and having a different unit of measure on each end of the spoon is convenient.
