FAQs
What materials is the spatula made from?
The head is made from flexible, heat-resistant silicone, and the handle is ergonomically designed and weighted. Specific handle material is not detailed beyond its ergonomic and weighted features.
Can I use this spatula for high-heat cooking?
Yes, the silicone head is heat-resistant up to 260°C (500°F), making it suitable for tasks like stirring sauces or sautéing on the stovetop within this temperature limit.
Is the spatula safe for my non-stick pans?
Absolutely. The silicone head is designed to be safe for use on all cookware and bakeware surfaces, including non-stick, without causing scratches.
How long is the spatula?
The KitchenAid Classic Scraper Spatula measures 30cm (approximately 12 inches) in length.
Is it dishwasher safe?

What is the benefit of the weighted handle?
The weighted ergonomic handle provides improved comfort, balance, and control during use, making tasks feel less strenuous.
Can I use this spatula to mix very thick doughs?
While the spatula is flexible, it might not offer the rigidity required for extremely thick doughs. It is best suited for batters, frostings, and sauces.
Troubleshooting
Spatula head feels stiff
Ensure the spatula has not been exposed to temperatures exceeding 260°C (500°F) for prolonged periods. Allow it to cool completely. If stiffness persists, it may be a manufacturing defect.
Food residue difficult to remove
Soak the spatula head in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before washing. If residue is stubborn, a soft brush can be used gently. For dishwasher users, ensure adequate detergent is used and the machine is functioning correctly.
Handle feels unbalanced
The handle is designed to be weighted for balance. Ensure you are holding it towards the thicker, weighted end for optimal control. If the balance feels significantly off, check for any damage to the handle.
