Norpro – 2320 Norpro Krona Stainless Metal 12-Wire Whisk, 11-Inch, 11in/28cm, Silver

Professional grade whisk, and easy to clean!
We used to use this brand in the fine dining restaurant I worked at so I knew I could trust it for home use. I was even more impressed with this new whisk. Well balanced for the task, with a heavy handle and light yet rigid whisk wires. Makes whipping up eggs and sauces an enjoyable breeze.Will be buying more Norpro products for the home kitchen, for sure.

One of these is different from the others
This is an “initial impressions” review, like so many others on Amazon; I will update it (negatively) if I encounter long-term problems. I don’t tend to leave gushing five-star reviews for reasonably-priced items that do what I expect them to, but shopping in this price range on Amazon yields a flood of alphabet soup items with thousands of reviews that appear to be complete garbage in actuality.I purchased the Krona whisks in 9″, 11″, and 13″. I am delighted to find that two inches of length is not the only distinguishing factor between them. Speaking of which, they all measure over an inch less than the advertised length (not including the hanging loop.)I would not choose the 11″ model for “whisking” so much as “mixing”. It has a thicker handle than the 9″ and 13″, and I would imagine using your elbow more than your wrist while holding it in the palm of your hand. The wires are also stiffer. I would choose this for mixing solids into a liquid that becomes thick and gooey.We don’t tend to use our kitchen tools in a particularly intensive manner; most damage is done by the dishwasher. My expectation for this whisk is that that over a reasonable period of time – say, 10 years – the wires will not rust, the entire assembly will remain one solid piece, and that if any water does wind up inside the handle, it will be a small amount that quickly escapes back out again instead of dripping into your next meal.

Good size
Easy to hold and clean. Disappointed in sturdiness of wire–stiffer than many but still to flexible for my liking. I like a whisk with stiff wires that do not bend with thicker batters.

Quality whisk
Love the sturdiness of this quality whisk. Easy to clean. My wife uses it all the time and wrote this review. Great gift if someone needs a whisk. You could pair it with a mixing bowl, measuring spoons, all kinds of kitchen items.
