AdcraftLIPC-8 8 oz Stainless Steel Deluxe Ladle - Set of 3

Thai is long enough to keep your fingers out of the food. it's commercial quality so it should last a life time. This is an 8-ounce ladle what is the perfect size to serve soups and Chili's. I use this 4 serving chili and soups if you have a 8 ounce bowl this will fill it to the brim. If you have a 12 ounce bowl which I use quite often this is the perfect size for a 12 ounce bowl it leaves just them in a room left at the top of the bowl to keep it from splashing out. This is a heavy duty commercial grade ladle. I would think this should last a lifetime with proper care. It cleans up easy has a nice sound to it and it's a heavyweight ladle. I have used this for several months now and it still looks just about as good as it did when I first bought it. I paid full price for this later I did not get it at any kind of a discount so this is an honest review from someone that paid full price for it it's just a nice heavy commercial quality lately that I think you would be happy with we use it quite often. Another thing I would like to tell you it is that this ladle has a long handle so you can use this in a deep pot without getting your fingers in the food. The slider has a hole in the handle which you can hang up thank you for listening to this review or reading this review I mean I hope you enjoy it.

This ladle does what it was designed to do. I didn't measure it exactly, but I did pour a ladle-full into a measuring cup & it seems to be spot on. I would have personally preferred it to be "deeper" than it is wide, but it doesn't really bother me. The solid one-piece design in stainless steel is what I was looking for since it is easy clean-up, as 2-piece designs have an area where nasty food bits accumulate, especially when soups/liquids are involved. The handle has clear markings for both oz & ml, making it easy to find among other ladle sizes you may have. Being that this is commercial quality, it was never really meant to be placed in a drawer, but rather "hung" by the handle in full view. This works well for me, since my kitchen is set to commercial specs & I have wire steel shelves where I keep my pots & pans. I do intend to get more of these in different sizes to make a complete set. As for other reviews complaining about the size, this is not even that large compared to other ladles I have worked with professionally. Perhaps they just liked the "idea" of an 8oz ladle, without really considering the actual size. This does not deserve a 1-star review because the reviewer didn't know what they were getting into. That being said, I measured this to be approx 14" long from tip top to the very bottom, and slightly over 4" wide.

Great for ladling soups into bowls quickly and without the mess. Two "scoops" from the ladle is enough to fill a good sized bowl. It makes it really easy to get just the right amount of liquid and chunks of meat, potatoes, or other vegetables into a serving. The handle is really long, so it can be used for deep gumbo pots. If you're camping, it lets you dip into the pot from far enough away that you don't get burned. It has a hanging hook on the end which I don't have a use for since my kitchen is small, but it fits in the drawer just fine on its size.

This is a really well-designed and well-made stainless steel 8 ounce ladle. It's formed out of a single piece of metal, has a sturdy bowl with just enough of an outwardly-curved lip to facilitate pouring out (or letting in just a bit of liquid). It also has a big hook on the end, which I have found means I can hang it on my ceiling-mounted pot rack without having to use up one of my hooks.However.You may want to take another look at the size: 8 ounces. 1 cup, 1 full cup of liquid will fit into that bowl. Which means that it (and the long handle attached to it) are pretty big. Some reviews are complaining that it is too big--it's not too big for an 8 oz. ladle, which is what you are buying. If you want a smaller ladle, I would recommend a 4 or 2 or even smaller ladle.

Got this to go with the new stockpot, replaces my old-fashioned aluminum dipper, used this weekend for canning, and it just the right size for the pot and me. The ladle itself seems sturdy to me, and I chose it for cup size (8 oz) and hooked handle (the handles on the others I saw seemed inadequate for keeping the spoon suspended over the pot rim during use). The handle is long enough for my 12-quart pot, but I would recommend a shorter one for use with a smaller cooking pot. Went through the dishwasher well and will hang on my utensil rack on the wall. Performs well with canning funnel and jars.
