Is the spoon durable enough to scoop ice cream?

Never had a problem eating ice cream with it, but I have never tried to use one as a ice cream scooper.

No, Lisa. I wouldn't use this particular ice cream scoop for cookie dough nor for biscuits. I use the completely round scoops that come in all different sizes depending on the size of cookie or biscuit that you want to make. I really love this very strong and durable ice cream scoop and I use it exclusively to scoop ice cream or sherbet or any frozen dessert.

The whisk attachment is perfect for whipping cream, but it is not heavy duty. For other things than cream, or big quantities, I use my stand mixer.

I have been trying different styles of ice cream scoops for around 50 years and this is the best design I have encountered. It is very well made out of solid stainless with a non-slip covering over the handle. The core or the handle feels solid and it appears to be part of the scoop forging. My only concern with the design is will the handle covering hold up under multiple trips through the dishwasher. The manufacturer says it is dishwasher compatible and thus far I have not seen any indication that the dishwasher is having any negative effects on the handle covering.

I have been using the machine for about 6mo. now and have not seen any sign of a problem with the paddle. The paddle is made of plastic but it seems to have enough flex so it will not break when it encounters resistance. Another feature of the machine is that the motor is built with a slip gear that slows down then stops the paddle when the ice cream gets to thick.

Yes it can. I walk around with a bucket in one hand , and scoop in the other .

ABSOLUTELY yes! The ridge on the lid is too short to allow any traction to be applied when twisting open. I have learned to put a piece of plastic wrap over the ice cream BEFORE I put in the lid, and most of the time this prevents the lid from freezing to the container and being difficult to open.

I don't know what it is made with, it feels like aluminum. I have used it 10 or 12 times this summer and there is no sign of a scratch. I usually use a metal spoon to serve up the ice cream.

I USE IT FOR FROZEN YOGURT AND IT IS A NICE SIZE SCOOP. I HAD 1 For 15 years and it stop working right. I wanted another and am very happy with it. I cannot tell how many ounces or tbs it holds.

this has got to be the best ice cream scoop on the planet. in terms of its ability to scoop ice cream. And no it has not paid in full a store rested yet in the one year that we've had ours. I would highly recommend you purchase one.

Not too bad, but eventually to some extent. I have run my through the dishwasher a couple hundred times. Maybe if I didn't do that it wouldn't ever pit. Hand wash it. But I'm fine with it and it scoops great.

It seems sturdy to me - at least, it's certainly more sturdy than my other cheap wood stirring spoons that I've had for years. I think as long as you keep it oiled and don't run it through dishwasher it will hold up to regular use just fine.

Not sure what the handle is made of either. The scoop itself works fantastic even on hard ice cream.

It has a metal edge on a plastic scoop. This scoop is excellent. It moves a lot of snow quickly and is very durable.

Scooping part is heavy metal...handle is also metal(all one piece) covered with neoprene rubber for comfort on hands... will not break!

I have never used that type of litter but I can assure you that this scoop will not bend or break. I sometimes need to use quite a bit of pressure to scrape the wet litter from the bottom of the pan and this scoop is definitely up to the job.

I'm sorry..I should have mentioned that little part. Yes, the entire scooper is made of sturdy metal ( won't bend or snap ) with a foam covering over the handle.
