Aesthetically - no question the Nessie ladle is a joy to behold. The idea is cute, the berry-red color looks great and the contrasting rough/glossy surface treatment on the outside & inside surfaces is smart. Unfortunately, that's about where the fun ends.One of the big selling points of this ladle is that you're supposed to be able to simply stand it on the kitchen counter until your soup is ready to serve. This would have been very easy to achieve using the following basic design techniques: (1) Thicken the plastic toward the bottom of the bowl to make the ladle more bottom-heavy, (2) position Nessie's front legs further out where the neck/handle is to account for the extra weight on that side of the ladle, or (3) both of the above, for even better stability.It's evident that none of these techniques were applied here. Instead, all 4 legs are evenly arranged around the center of the bowl, and the plastic is of the same thickness almost everywhere except the legs themselves, offsetting the center of mass so much that even the slightest tap will knock the ladle right over. The only way it wouldn't happen is if you stand it on the counter while full of soup, but why would anyone do that...Also, the plastic itself is so thin that the handle actually flexes under the load of its own contents - not only affecting long-term durability, but making the whole thing feel flimsy right from the start. Worst of all, since the handle is increasingly concave on one side to blend into the hollow form of the head and offer a half-hearted attempt at rigidity where it's least important, the ergonomics are terrible in exactly the place you'd instinctively want to grip it, never being quite comfortable enough to hold.No choice but to return this. Pity that such a cool-looking product is so poorly thought out. 5 stars for appearance, 1 for execution.

I love this. SO much! But it's not really a decent functional ladle for anything aside from gravy because the neck is too flimsy. It's also smaller than I thought. I make super chunky spaghetti sauce & Nessie isn't large or heafty enough to handle single portions for ravenous children, let alone gratuitous adults, at dinner time. But my lil' Nessie will be the best gravy ladle in all the land. If I'm being honest, I might use her as a personal soup spoon when I'm sick. Because I can. Slàinte mhath!

Lustige Kelle, der Stiel (Hals) ist zu dünn und der Inhalt kann schon mal aus der Kelle schwappen. Für die Kinder ist es lustig, besonders wenn's kleckert. :))

After reading reviews saying some customers received cheap knock-off products, I was rather leery of ordering the purple Nessie. However, ordering directly from the manufacturer would have resulted in an $11.00 shipping fee, so I thought I should take my chances and order from Amazon. I was not disappointed! The Nessie I received is a true Ototo product, and is sturdy and ready to delight my Thanksgiving guests as she helps to serve mulled cider.

I'm so glad I bought this. I hesitated at first and absolutely don't regret it. Everyone that comes to my house loves it. I love it.I was worried about putting it in my dishwasher so the first time I put it in the top rack and it was fine. The next time my boyfriend didn't know and put it with the regular silver Ware on the bottom and it's completely fine! Would definitely buy it again.

Really happy with this product. My only complaint (which really isn't a big deal) is the "neck" is a little flimsy with really heavy soup ect. I do not think that it would ever break or twist, it just bends a little more than anyone I have seen use it expect. Would still recommend!
