It's great for mixing dry ingredients instead of sifting for baking, for mixing batter, egg replacers, and for dissolving green superfood powders into juices and water. This is almost a hybrid of the flat whisks and the balloon type. I use this several times per week and love the small size. Oxo is a staple in my kitchen--I love their stuff. Do measure because it's small--a feature I really like.
Since I have arthritis in my hands, I find the Oxo good grips kitchen utensils to be the most comfortable on the market. I use this little 9" whisk a lot for small jobs. I love all the Oxo Good Grips kitchen utensils because they are so comfortable to use. One little bit of advice is to rinse the whisk immediately after using to make clean-up easier. It is perfect for mixing up a little thickening for gravy, whisking a few eggs to use in recipes when baking, or for scrambling eggs. A larger whisk won't fit in measuring cups or small bowls. I made the mistake of letting food dry on it a couple of times, and it made cleaning it more difficult. I highly recommend this whisk for all cooks.
The title kind of says it all. It has the typical Oxo grip on it, which is nice, but it's best for making personal servings of dishes/sauces. Not great if you're trying to make a big batch of anything.
worth getting, assuming you have the money to pay for it, and need of a whisk.On the other hand, if you don't need whisks, or cannot afford this one at 7$, you might be better off buying something else.
Not much else to say about it. It's smaller than the whisks I grew up with, so if you use big bowls, buy the next size up. Otherwise it's great.
