Choice #40 Purple Thumb Press Disher - 0.75 oz.

Do not recommend for ice cream use. After just two weekends of use (slow wintry weather weekends, I might add), not just one, but both scoops have broken. The swivel mechanism on the inside of the scoop is poorly designed, as it would not stay in place. The gear that grinds as you depress the thumb switch somehow jumped notches on one of the units. For what I thought was going to be a good replacement to our previous scoops, these were certainly a poor choice!!! HIGHLY DISSATISFIED with this model of scoop, I would give it 0 stars if that were possible.

PROS: In-stock and Available to Ship, A fraction of the cost of the leading brand CONS: They don’t last long; You’ll be buying replacements We purchased these Choice #16 Blue Thumb Press Dishers to supplement our existing supply of Hamilton Beach 78-16 #16 Blue Thumb Press Dishers. Due to the 2022 supply chain shortages, Hamilton Beach has limited their manufacturing of that product, and we were in desperate need for an alternative. We’ve ordered several dozen of these dishers over the past six months. At that time, this Choice model was readily in stock (and, as a bonus, at a lower cost). Upon receipt, we’d had about a 50% failure rate for these units after a few uses just out of the box. The post that secures the thumb press in place does not have a quality method of fastening, so these pop off right off.  Read More

High quality ice cream scooper. Right-handed lever. Easy to clean. Easy to use even though, it’s huge. Perfect portion for ice cream, burger patties, rice, mashed potatoes and baking use. I would purchase this again if needed and recommend this to family or friends

Works ok. Its a decent scoop, but only lasted about 4 weeks scooping cookie dough (about 20 scoops every 3 days). The "Disher" part broke.

These ice cream scoops are wonderful!! We use them to scoop frozen Acai for our smoothie bowls. They are very sturdy, and lasted us an entire farmers market season without anything breaking. Highly recommend.

This scooper has a smooth actuation and holds 2.66 oz of product. It feels good in the hand and isn’t too light. Greenish color handle.

Absolute junk. I’ve used it to portion soft sweet bean paste and it felt apart in less than 3 weeks of use. Neither Webstaurant nor Choice is willing to help, so I’ve wasted my hard earned money. I should have spent little more and bought the disher by Vollrath. They stand behind their products and the same with disher made by them too. I’ll never buy dishers and other mechanical products made by Choice.

These are absolute junk. From the scoop twisting of while trying to use it to the lever in the scoop breaking. I don't even use them rigorously. Would not recommend

Ordered in August, broke by the end of October.

Very poor quality. After two to three uses, the swivel no longer works and gets stuck. As soon as we opened a new box on the #6 disher, it was visually evident that it was defective. The pin for the bottom swivel attachment was not correctly manufactured and does not operate as intended.

I use all the time. works well... they do break but I understand with the cost that this will happen.

too big

Works great

Good quality for the price. We use for cookie scoops and portioning cake batter. Easy to clean in dishwasher.

Good quality, pricing good , recommend

Love this disher! We use this to portion our pulled pork at our concession stand. Very well made and super sturdy. Great price and value. Highly recommend this disher.

Depends on the size you get. The smaller ones we have last forever. This bigger #6 size last maybe 6 months for us at best before breaking. We use them for butter cream and royal icing so very easy on the mechanism and it still eventually just randomly falls apart.

Worked perfect for scooping pie filling! was super easy to clean and the bigger handle makes it much easier to hang on to!
