Problem W/ Wilton silicon spatula set - Heads coming off the handles: Anyone else have this problem ?
382020
Alan, thanks so much for sharing this. I have some 'silicone spatulas' with wood handles that were ofcourse never 'adheared' to the head, I have to take care not to get the 'connection' contaminated with what ever it is I am using it for. If you run across a solid sil spat, pls let me know. I'll do the same.

Andrew- I used this set all last summer with no problems! I would like to know if someone sold a replacement handle also. I feel that this handle will last as long as the pans. The hook you see that hooks into pans is 15 gauge (.072 inches) as is the spring loaded strap below it that locks it to the pans. Once it's locked it wont come out. without pulling the button back-hope this helps

I am definitely having an issue with the coating. I have submitted a question to Circulon for a replacement. My pans were bought Dec 2nd, 2013. The main problem i've had is with -- of all the pans -- the stockpot, which we use mostly for boiling things, sauces, soups. The coating seems to be coming off more and more, and it isn't inside the grooves, it is on top. We do use metal utensils, but you are supposed to be able to use that.. and it's not like we are frying in the pan (though, again, it says metal utensil safe). I'm wondering if we somehow got a bad batch, as so many people seem to say the coating stay. I am definitely having an issue with the coating.

It could be the batter you're using. I hadn't had an issue with them sticking.

This happened to my lid handles from this crock pot and the other one I had from the same brand. I think there is something defective about it. If you look at the reviews you will see this happened to a number of people. Might just want to buy a different brand of crock pot.

I haven't had any problem with sticking. I use a cooking spray and fill them with a cake decorating bag. Sometimes I've had to tap the edge of the pan on the cooking rack to get the last one to fall out of the pan, but that's it.

Take them off because you don't want a leaky pan. Actually, mine didn't come packed this way.......but remove. Happy baking!

You might try spraying with Pam and then work them apart. Or warm water and lots of soap. I've not had this problem, so am wishing you luck.

It seemed like I had a hiccup with mine at first too. I had to "nudge" the rollers a little bit and then they started turning on their own. I would get mine out and look at it but my kitchen is being tiled and I won't be able to get at if for a few days. I'll try and get back to you.

Yes, I reported the same problem. But I have not thought yet how to solve it. May be, if you use some metal file and round somwhat the insertion sides of the cutters, they possibly can go easier into the handle. I have not tried it yet myself.

They should just come out with out using spatula. Mine jat come out when I turn the pan over.

My set has worked well, but the non-stick has started to retain some food bits at times. Using a mild vinegar soak for 10-15 min., seems to release the residue (it's still much easier to clean, than the stainless steel sets). My problem: When simmering/boiling with the glass covers on, fluid becomes trapped between the rubber gasket and metal rim. Over time, I'm noticing buildup and/or a bit of rusting(?) where the lid glass meets the metal, which is near impossible to clean ( I would've preferred a totally metal lid, to this design). Otherwise, I'm a fan of the ceramic coating, on the pans. My set has worked well, but the non-stick has started to retain some food bits at times.

I have never had that problem . I use a flour sack sprinked with flour . That way it doesn't stick to the boule. I just transfer the boule over to whatever I am baking it on. Works for me anyway. Good luck.

It is pretty easy to pull the head off. I used a two part epoxy glue with toothpick. Put glue in hole of head then pushed the handle in. Hope this makes it stay on. With or without the gluing I think four silicone spatulas for $13 is an excellent price. Silicone spatulas are one of the handiest kitchen tools, IMHO. Having more than one can be handy too unless you wash everything right after using. Now if I can get my wife to stop poking it around inside our blender when it is running, LOL

No, the handle cannot be removed. Unlike other silicone spatulas I've bought, the handle had never fallen out.

Yes, I noticed this problem on my set too. I took a couple of pictures and posted them so we can be sure we talk about the same problem.

I had the same problem at first. Get the 8'' or 10'' shells. Make sure they are pushed gently down and formed in the pan.
