There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Two things strike you when you pick this scoop up - it is HEAVY (3/4 lb.) and it sits in the hand rather oddly. To use effectively, you need to hold it much closer to the end of the handle than with a conventional scoop so that the curve at the end fits properly in your palm. At that point the intended ergonomics come into play, letting you hold your wrist straight and push the pointed end of the scoop into the ice cream with your arm and even shoulder. This still puts some compressional load on your wrist, but nothing like the torque you experience using the most common "premium" liquid filled scoop design. Even so, I don't see this being great for the arthritic, frail, or small of stature given its heft - I've become scooper in chief around here as my wife finds it a bit much to handle. While ergonomics is given as a key selling point (perhaps the MAIN point), I think that's going to depend on the user - and you definitely do NOT want to drop this on your foot.
I have no doubts about this utensil's durability - I saw one reviewer anticipating it would be regarded as an heirloom to be passed to favored descendants, and honestly, I doubt they were even half kidding. A single solid chunk of steel with a few decorative stars on the top side and gripping ridges on the bottom of the palm grip, the Midnight Scoop appears as a physical manifestation of the word "durable". For at least as long as you can lift it, this is going to be your last ice cream scoop.
I do want to note that as impressive an object as this is, it's not perfect. Aside from the mixed bag of its considerable heft, I think the "ready to attack hard pack ice cream straight out of the freezer" messaging leans a bit toward hype. It can definitely push into hard ice cream more easily than competitors, but there's no magic to it, and you'll probably still want to give the ice cream several minutes on the counter or seconds in the microwave before going at it, just not quite as long as its peers.
That said, this is a wonderfully satisfying piece of hardware to behold, to hold, and to use. It merits five stars because there is literally nothing like it, and I truly believe innovation and obsessive design of this caliber deserve to be rewarded. I'm sure knock-offs of some variety or other are bound to come along, but the Midnight Scoop's inventor and purveyors are charging a fair price for an extraordinary and beautiful object. If the idea of this intrigues you, I can't imagine the reality will disappoint - highly recommended.
However, the ergonomic side we're not sold on. You do feel different muscles being used, but because the scoop must be held higher up than usual, you still need to use your wrist to angle it properly.
Best part is that it is dishwasher safe, though. Love that!
It's all in the shape of the handle, which gives you the proper leverage for that frozen-solid ice cream, and the shape of the scoop which helps dig in much easier. Yes you still have to apply some force, but the design of the entire scoop just makes it that much easier compared to all other scoops I've used in the last 60 years.
Something else I've noticed with this scoop is that the ice cream doesn't stick as with other, cheaply made scoops. I've never had to use a spoon (or my finger) to scrape ice cream from this scoop. Maybe due to the high quality stainless steel? I dunno.
Clean up is a snap as you can just rinse it under hot water for a bit and it's good to go. However, it is perfectly safe for the dishwasher. We do both.
As another reviewer stated, this could be considered an heirloom piece, the quality is that good. We've been using ours for over a year and it still looks brand-spanking new. Highly recommend this scoop. It'll be the last scoop you'll ever need to buy!
This made a rock hard ice cream, tasted great, but I couldn't get it out of the container. Then I remembered this new ice cream scoop I bought. Now I had tried a heavy tablespoon on this ice cream, and the plastic spatula that came with the machine, to no avail. Rock hard. Way denser than commercial ice cream because I'm using a Philadelphia style recipe and there is not much air in my ice cream, and my freezer is -10F. (-23C). Rock hard ice cream.
The scoop went through the ice cream like it was softened butter. I had looked at all the claims about this device. I had discounted them as marketing hyperbole.
Every one of them is true. The shaped mouth is perfectly shaped to cut into rock hard ice cream. The handle fits into the palm of your hand, such that you can put a lot of pressure or a little, as needed. My typical struggle with an ice cream scoop makes me feel like I'm barely in control as the scoop scrapes across the surface of the ice cream, and I scrape it again and again. Nothing like that here. It was in perfect control at all times and dug into the ice cream like it was soft serve.
This is the best damn ice cream scoop I have ever used, and it is so solid that my grandkids will use it.
If you can possibly justify the cost, if my narrative resembles anything you struggle with when you serve ice cream, I believe this scoop will solve your problems. Get it. It is nicely packaged and boxed, so all you have to do is wrap it if you want to give it as a gift.
I watched a video where they talked about the engineering and design that went into the device. Use the scoop and you can feel the engineering. These people deserve to succeed.
Top reviews from other countries
-No plating that will flake off in your food
-Dishwasher safe stainless steel
-No handle piece with a weak join that will snap off
-No plastic or rubber inserts that will crack, break, fall out or develop mold and mildew under them
-Smooth and professional finish with no burs
-Single solid piece with no weak spots
Despite being all metal, it's comfortable to hold. The pointed edges bite into hard ice cream as advertised and regardless of what angle you attack the ice cream with it makes lovely balls. If you're not using it according to the ergonomic design (push vs scoop) it's a no less hard on the wrist than other scoops, possibly more so due to the weight and larger handle.
If you aren't happy with your current scoop or your scoop broke. Get this one. It's a no brainer and worth every cent.
Wer das Problem kennt, dass das Eis direkt aus dem Kühlfach so richtig hart ist, wird hier ein gutes Werkzeug finden, um nicht noch 5 Minuten mit dem Portionieren warten zu müssen.
Zwar ist es auch mit diesem Tool nicht ganz einfach, ultra hartes Eis zu portionieren, aber mit einem herkömmlichen Eislöffel hat man hier ja absolut gar keine Chance.
Das interessante ist, dass es durch den großen, ergonomisch konstruierten Griff möglich wird, die Kraft "von der Schulter aus" einzusetzen. Dazu kommt die perfekt durchdacht gestaltete Löffelkante, die sich sehr gut durch das Eis schneidet (die Kraft wird praktisch vorne am Löffel gebündelt).
Die Reinigung ist unter heißem Wasser sofort erledigt + Verarbeitung ist hervorragend und fühlt sich an wie ein Schmuckstück - das Ding wird sicherlich mal noch vererbt werden...
Wer also ungeduldig ist, was das Eis Essen angeht und auch kein schon halb geschmolzenes Eis im Teller haben mag, hat hiermit die best möglichen Karten (etwas Kraft muss aber schon auch noch sein :-).
