New Star Foodservice 35421 Commercial Grade Ice Cream Scoop, Self-Defrosting, Aluminum, Green

I don’t consider myself an ice cream scoop fanatic and I don’t write in depth reviews, but after trying this? I’m about to order the bigger size as well. I was looking for something with the feel and functionality of the original (barely vintage) pampered chef ice cream scoops, but an easier to clean version. I almost purchased the Zeroll brand .. but 26$ for an ice cream scoop? In this economy? Absolutely not. I bought this one and was surprised by how light it was, I was expecting a heavier scoop, but the weight is sturdy enough to to be put use but light enough for disabled/elderly people who might have trouble using heavy metal utensils. I tested it with rock hard ice cream straight of out the back of my freezer, IMMEDIATELY cut through it like butter with perfectly shaped scoops. I don’t think I’ve ever been more impressed in my life by something so simple. 15/10.

I am no pro but an average home owner who has bent or broken every scout to cross my path. This scoup seams sturdy by design and magical in it's ease through ice cream, may be due to it's shape but the effort required is 75% less than my last scoup.

Works exactly as it should, makes scooping sooooo much easier. Can't believe I didn't do this sooner; much more comfortable than just a spoon for scooping.

Read the directions, understood the hand wash only. Washed it twice, had to throw out the ice cream tub. Terrible.

Awesome ice cream scooper. Works like a charm. But can not be place in the dishwasher. Once you accidentally place this in the dishwasher it is no longer usable. All you ladies out there who usually do the dishes beware because if you're husband or significant other puts it in the dishwasher without you knowing your feelings will be hurt when your heart is set on some ice cream and you pull out the ice cream scooper and realize you have this grey powder all over your fingertips and in your ice cream.
