Norpro Double Melon Baller w/Wood Handle, 8 In.

My wife loves this!

First of all, I like this melon baller much more than I like previous ones I have purchased. Many of them tend to be made poorly and break easily, but I didn't have any trouble out of this one. So far, it has held up to regular use. I love that there are two sizes in one so I could vary things up a little. I used for its intended purpose as a melon baller in preparation for a birthday party, and it worked very well. I also used it to scoop ice cream for my kids (just for fun). It worked well on ice cream that had sat out long enough to soften a little. I'm not sure that it would work as well on harder ice cream. I don't think it would work well with cookie dough as mentioned in the description. I'm not sure how the cookie balls would come out - they won't fall out as easily as melons or ice cream. You may want to rethink it if you're considering it for that purpose. Overall, great quality and great product when used as intended!

Works fine

I didn't expect to love a melon baller this much—but the Norpro Double Melon Baller w/Wood Handle has earned its permanent spot in my kitchen drawer. It's not just a fruit tool; it's a versatile little powerhouse that makes prep work feel almost elegant.

Nothing fancy but neither was the price! Did the job perfectly.

Produces very small melon balls. It's not the sturdiest food tool in the drawer.

I did not buy this to scoop fruit. I bought it because I needed it for my bready supermarket bagels. I use it to remove some of the bread INSIDE the sliced bagels; which do NOT resemble the bagels I got as a child in Brooklyn, a very long time ago.

Great tool!
