OXO Good Grips Spreader

The first time I put the spreader in the dishwasher, it came out with a bunch of small rust spots on the blade. I've tried to buff them out, but they are still there. It looks dirty so I don't even use it anymore.

I got one of these with an Oxo bagel holder, and frankly I don't use it all that often. My kids are another matter. They tell me this is MUCH easier to make PB&J sandwiches with. They use it for jelly on toast, making sandwiches, putting cream cheese or butter on a bagel, etc. If you're an adult accustomed to just grabbing the nearest table knife, I wouldn't bother. But if you've got kids, you might want to consider it. The smaller size and grippy handle seems to be easier for smaller hands to handle and hey, they can make their own sandwiches to take to school!

The design,mfg. and usage are excellent but the choice of material is not. Since when is it OK to use recycled stainless steel in food products, this means the stainless steel they used contained scrap iron,steel, aluminum, motor oil,etc. This is indicated by rusty spot and staining on the blades. Why does made in USA have to follow USDA,NSF guide lines for our health but made in China does not, once again high profit margins are more important than our health.

First time we washed these in dishwasher rust appeared on blades. The blades are marked "stainless steel".

Very disappointed, other OXO products we have purchased were of good quality.

I have had this spreader for several years now. I really like it, but you have to take REALLY good care of it, or buy a new one every year or so. You must dry it immediately after washing, so that it won't rust (I wash mine in the dishwasher sometimes, but make sure to pull it out right away when it's done). Also, the grip at the bottom became unglued shortly after using it. This is possible due to me washing it in the dishwasher though.

Now when I wash the spreader, I remove the handle (water will get into the handle and you don't want that), wash it by hand and dry it off. Then I let it set a few hours more, and put the item back together again. If this sounds like too much hassle for you, then you might look elsewhere.
