Did anyone else find that the plastic on the handle area was rough and uneven?

I gave the toy to my granddaughter who is one and I didn't play with it with her. I just know that she and her brothers filled it with dolls and toys and never stopped pushing it around all afternoon. I do remember laughing at her father as he worked to put it together. The comment made was " glad this isn't Christmas Eve.

The one I got is smooth. The handle is also shorter than I thought it would be

Yes I have. No success fixing it. Also had the handle break off. Haven't been able to get through to manufacturer after many attempts. Sorry, I can't help

The handle is round with a smooth finish. What you might see is light reflection which makes appear having sides.Mine ara all smooth, round. I checked. Regards, Jim

The product I received has a hollow plastic handle and feels like you could crush it in your hand. I don't think I received the same product others are saying is durable.

I bought a very similar one from somewhere else. Only the handle was different. It, like most anything else like this, had made in China stamped on the bottom.

I did have a plastic piece that broke off before we even used the set on the frying pan, but it's not the whole handle, just the the piece underneath where the screw goes into the pan.

Yes, it is smooth with no marks from the handles.However, the metal (they say it's stainless steel) is of very poor quality and gets stained after a couple of times.

The handle was welded together on mine, so I had to sand of the little bit that remained after taking it off. Other than that, if you have the tools you can get it off just fine. Just beware of the welded piece when swinging around. *cough* if you do that.

I didn't have any issues with the handle. Mine was the foot petal on the bucket that broke 2 times. Not well made.

I would contact the supplier for an exchange... that should not have happened, especially that new... I know breeders and groomers that have had their's for years and have not heard of the handle splitting... could have been a defect in the grain of the wood.

Yes, it requires a good deal of effort to pull the bottom of the handle back. However, I don't think that necessarily means that it is defective, since mine is the same way but has worked superbly for about a year.

Yes, exactly the same thing happened to me. I was shocked because of the price I paid for it. I had an old one I paid a couple of dollars for many years ago....all metal, without a folding handle. Perhaps this one was meant for a ceramic stove???

I agree with two other answers, but I can only speak to the one I own. My handle has a dimple on the inside at the top attachment of the handle and has a hollow space slightly at the bottom attachment of the handle. so my answer would be that the handle is solid for the most part and has about maybe 10% of the handle area at the bottom attachment being hollow.

Sorry, handle wasn't an issue, but threw it away after one use, the coating started flaking. Truly a piece of junk!

I turned mine on a little too high once and noticed that the spatula (which came with the cookware set) melted a little on the surface. I couldn't get it completely off when I washed the pan. I think it has worn off now, but I wasn't thrilled about that because I don't really like using plastic to begin with. This is the ONLY problem I've had so far with this cookware.

I read this before I ordered but the one I received had a plastic handle and clearly stated on the package (PLASTIC LEVER). I returned it for a refund.
