Pastry Blender Silver - Figmint™: Stainless Steel Blades, Hand Wash, Dishwasher-Safe, Kitchen Tool, 4" Height

the blender blades are very thin and delicate so be careful how you press down on your dough

Is this product a joke? I knew I’d be missing out on some features getting a 9-dollar pastry cutter but I’m disappointed that I didn’t get a usable product. I went to use it, for the first time, to cut cold butter into flour. It immediately buckled and bent. Couldn’t even do the one thing it was designed to a single time.

This bent the very first moment I used it. I laughed out loud at how terrible it was. I guess you get what you pay for….. I’ll definitely be returning.

Terrible product. Sides were sharp and cut my hand ever time I used it. I had to throw it away.

Works as described. Been using for a few months and loving it

This is by far the worst kitchen utensil I have used in my life. I created a Target account specifically to leave a review warning people not to buy it, and I expressed my concerns to Target customer service. I used this blender for less than five seconds before it bent completely out of shape. Since each side of the handle attaches to the blender at a single point, the whole utensil twists around the handle. The metal bends about as easily as a soda can. The blades are also sharper than they ought to be for a simple pastry blender. This makes it fairly dangerous, especially when the blades twist into more pointed edges. Do not buy this! Frankly, it should be taken off the market.

This was not meant for anything more than light mixing. I bought this to make a pot pie crust, and it wasn't able to cut through butter. If you're looking to make any sort of dough using this - DON'T!! The handle might have been comfortable, but the metal cut into the sides of my hands as it bent. If you're wondering why it's so well priced, it's because it's cheap. A waste of eight bucks.

Tried to use it to cut butter into flour for a dough and it bent and became unusable. $8 for about 5 minutes of use and then had to throw it away.

I used this product once to make some pie crust and it was bent all to heck from just making some pie crust. The metal is poor quality and it doesn’t keep its shape. This pastry blender should be able to work and not break by doing what it’s made for.

Perfect for making scones

I used htis once and while I was using it to cut butter into daogh it completly bent and is unusable. I ended up purchasing one from a different company that is much sturdier.

Cheap. Used it for 5 minutes and it bent to the point of not usable.

This works great. I think it’s not the best quality but it’s not super junky either. It light weight and comfortable to hold while mixing and a great tool to have for baking pastries. It gets everything super smooth. It’s also very easy to clean.

This pastry cutter is definitely easier than using two forks or knives to start my pastry dough. It held up to the mashing needed to cut both cold butter and (easier) shortening. The tines didn't get filled any quicker than my old pastry cutter, but it didnt seem to empty as quickly as it could. It does have more tines than my old one, so the gaps were smaller. I wish the handle was a bit thicker, and just a tad wider. Admittedly, I have large hands,... so if I had to cut dough for more than one pie, I think my hand would get tired pretty quickly.

It's the perfect size! Be careful its incredibly sharp. It does the job perfectly! I used it to mash up bananas and then again to incorporate it into the flour mixture, banana bread. It cut through with ease. The handle is soft and comfortable to hold.

This is a very well made easy to use pastry blender by Figmint. It has a very comfortable soft grip handle, so using this does not make your hand hurt. Made of stainless steel so this will last. So far I’ve used to make crumbs for cakes and muffins and this works through and makes some wonderful crumbs. Not sure why I wanted so long to include the in my kitchen, but this is a definite must if you like to bake like I do.

This is my first time owning a pastry blender and it actually worked really well. It mixed the butter with my flour nicely without getting my hands messy. I got the perfect crumbly texture I was looking for. It also came clean in the dishwasher. I gave it four stars because the metal can be bent very easily so hopefully it holds up well over time.

I’ve never bought one of these before and am admittedly a beginner baker. It was disconcerting to be using this and the grip on the handle moved causing me to spill some of the contents of the bowl. Why would the handle spin?? Returning immediately.

Not the smartest design. After one use the handle came off.

Bent after the second time I used it not very quality metal.
