Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro Stainless Steel Scoop, 50mm (3-Tablespoon)
Customer Review: Actually, it IS 3 tablespoons
Summary: 5 Stars
ETA: Regarding the review above claiming a "horribly" "flawed design": There is no design flaw, only an unrealistic expectation. No one should ever use any sweeper scoop to dish HARD ice cream, They're not engineered for that. If I need to dish HARD ice cream (I make my own and it rarely freezes to HARD), I use a Zeroll Original 3-Ounce Aluminum Ice Cream Scoop and would heartily recommend it.
I came to these Norpo scoops (I have three: a Norpro 35 mm Stainless Steel Scoop (one tablespoon), this one (three tablespoons) and a Norpro 56mm Stainless Steel Scoop (four tablespoons) recently, in September, 2009, after a bad experience with the Oxo Good Grips Trigger Ice Cream Scoop. I really like them. Very well made. Coming from the OXO it's sort of like the difference in closing a door on a Benz and a Ugo.
However, now I need to look for a TWO tablespoon scoop because this really (with all due deference to D. Evans) does hold three, and it's immaterial whether it's water or grains of salt, 2009 or any other year.
ETA: In looking for a real 2 tablespoon model online today, I came across a vendor who claims to have one that "holds PRECISELY 2 tablespoons of your favorite ice cream, cookie dough, melons, chicken or potato salad..." (Emphasis added.) Unfortunately, it's the same model as this one, a Norpro #678. So much for precision. I'm not having much luck finding what I need so, a shout-out to Norpro: Label this one correctly as a three tablespoon and make a real two tablespoon model.
ETA: I ordered the Norpro 39mm Stainless Steel Scoop and I'm making a guess it will hold two tablespoons.
ETA: It doesn't. It holds almost, but not quite, two tablespoons.
