I'm going to start by saying this whisk itself is great. I'm disappointed though as I spend ALL DAY online comparing a few to find the best deal I could on A DISHWASHER SAFE ONLY whisk. I purchased this one as the description said "dishwasher safe" however when it arrived and I read the packaging it says "hand wash only" too expensive for not being dishwasher safe in my option but like I said it is a nice one!
