Honestly, I love wooden spoons and this large wooden spoon is great. I love that it’s deep enough to scoop up your meats but also deep enough to have a taste of your soups/chili. This spoon is more durable than my other wooden spoons after washing and drying them. You can tell in my picture how much bigger and wider the head of the spoon is. Even the color after washing them. I would definitely recommend getting this wooden spoon.
