Mercer Culinary 18-8 Stainless Steel Precision Plus Chef Plating Tong, Curved Tip, 9-3/8 Inch

Personally for me it's very important comments below the product. They help me decided and get honest reviews from users. And I know that not all 5 star reviews are honest... So it's very important for me to give honest feedback about the product. I work in the kitchen as seasonal J1 student at the Chatham Bars Inn. And I use this tong for mussels, decorate seafood and other decorative works which requires delicate approach. So far this product done very good job and I would recommend it to anybody who works in the kitchen. But I didn't give it 5 starts because of it's price. I think it's a little overpriced. But this is my personal opinion and this factor might be least for other customers.

These are great for plating. Presumably you want to buy these for the kitchen, not for the garden or your face. I’ve used multiple brands: jb prince, global, and some cheap ones from the Asian market. These are, by far, my favorite. The color is cool, they’re sturdy, stamped metal instead of the soldered together ones you usually see, and they open wide enough that you can use them to turn small ingredients. A little too flimsy for anything over a couple oz. but perfect for small garnishes. Worth the few extra dollars to buy these.

Now I can squish people from a distance in style. Also I've dropped these several times and had them knocked around, and they're still very capable of squishing people mercilessly. Also picking up brunois mango from an emulsion it has spilled into while plating an odd tartare.

Mistake. I lost my JbPrince and since I only had a few more days as a stage for a restaurant I bought these. They are cheaper and the discount for jbprince was no longer available on amazon.These are much lower quality. It is too firm and so your hand gets tired before your plate is done. The tip is not fine, flowers would slip through. I ended up giving up and just borrowed. I would pay more for JbPrince or a better brand.

The action on the forceps is much too stiff. Mercer knows from customer feedback that these forceps are bad, and they’re still selling them. The market prefers the product a different way, there’s no apparent reason the spring needs to be so tense, Mercer will never get my business again.

I use this tool everyday at work. Didn't think I would use it this much but it is very easy to use.

I'm very disappointed with these, the fit and finish on them is horrible. The tips done meet correctly on the first pair and the second pair is bent horribly.
